Old Dog Wishes

Don't feed the beast! Wasting too much time comparing, losing yourself despairing, you hear it, don't you, are you hungry for your fight. So why do you care if life is unfair, just because they've got everything you wanted. That's right your not even close, to getting where you wish you could be. You wanted to be farther along than you are, but here you are on your knees. Are you happy, well be happy with your place! What's the use in being haunted, your story for glory, it's right there in your face. So be glad, you're an architect creation, your one of kind. Just stay on track, because every cross can be a blessing. All the gifts that you've been given, close your eyes and listen to what your meant to be.

Your 64 Today

What's wrong? What's getting you down? Is it something I might have said, your walking around with your head to the ground, and your eyes are all watery red. I know you've been through some rough times, kicked down, thrown to the ground. But you've always been the strong one, so don't tell me that nobody gets you, cause I'm standing in your corner, knocking at your door, you don't have to be alone! We share a bond, You and I we belong, we're like coffee and morning runs, you strip my defenses, I catch your pretenses. The same blood runs through our veins. I swore I'd be your life line, made a vow that I'd surround you with support at every milestone. I'll listen when no one gets you. So just call my name, let me be an answer, cause it hurts me to see you this way. I want to ease your pain, help me understand, let me be your shelter my friend. It was not to long ago, you sought to understand, you helped me mend, remember when? So promise me....

Arise

I don't want to get out of bed today, the sun is too bright and the world is too grey. I've given it all I can give and all I know is this pain. Where were you when I needed you most, I was thrown to the wolves. Yet here you are, knocking at the door of my heart, calling me to love you, and you say Boodini come out of your cave. Boodini, I don't care if everyone thinks your dead or that you've lost your edge. I know that your still alive. So let's put on your leash and fight for the truth.
There's so much in life I don't understand. Your ways are not our ways, so hard to trust when we don't see, forgive the little faith. Left with a ghost, yet here you are, healing through your wounds and scars, calling me to suffer for you. Grant me wisdom, give me peace, untie my hands, unbind my feet, what was dead shall live again. so let's put on your leash.
