Rain



The smell of rain on Tuesday
Its dampness on my face
Somehow it’s always special
Offsetting this monotonous race

Each day so very similar
We breathe, we watch, we talk
Preserving someone else’s future
With our ever-slowing walk

Be mindful of the details
The kindness in our touch
For those who are beside us
With true hearts, we love so much

Harry



Daniel Radcliffe made her money
My message remains unheard
Combat boots and typewriters
Make it all seem absurd
Quiet is tomorrow
Though all still run around
No purpose and no sorrow
Truth no longer has a sound
Caring for only nothing
While lying to ourselves
Trading us for Jesus
To store our love upon our shelves

Shoes



Footprints on my joy
That lead into your room
As it pants for air
You insure its doom
Whelps on my peace
Tied to your definitions
Your emotions are the whip
Stealing all of my ambition
A sliver of light on my hope
Opportunity a fleeting breeze
Grabbing it without a thought
Desire to just get off my knees
A smile on my tomorrow
As the door is open wide
Each step a sheer delight
My future in each stride
