Monday Mornings

For once,I want to shut down.
Take a break from all the drama.
Wanna travel, go away for a while,
or if I could just slip into a comma.

I fear for my sanity.
I wake up in the middle of the night all tensed.
Is it stupid to wish for clarity,
in a world where nothing makes sense?

It gets a little harder with every breath.
You don't have to scared of hurting me.
Just say what you really mean
and get it over with.

Here within these waters
is what I call crystal clear truth.
Why cant I for once
have all the puzzle pieces?

I don't have to understand.
I don't have to put myself in your shoes.
I can choose not to fight with this quick sand,
keep my distance equally from both friends and foes.
  

Shades of Grey

Shades of grey,
changes color for each pair of eyes.
One should be careful not to fall prey,
to standard definitions and age-old superstitions.

No one has all puzzle pieces.
No one does everything right.
It is sweet to try-but useless,
to place every "answer" in a box airtight.

There are no right or wrong-
Just actions and consequences.
One should be brave to follow;
the path they chose for themselves.

The easy answer is to stay true,
Pour your heart into everything you do.
Bear the consequences with pride,
approach every human with your heart open wide.
