Cancer

Cancer, cancer
Please stop this fight
I have a plan here
To end our plight

I know you're strong
Killing cells-white
But you are wrong
To be taking lives

Why don't you stop
This stupid game
And peace-adopt
So both-remain

Cancer, cancer
Please go away
You're not the answer
You cause us pain

Don't you realize
That you kill yourselves
Part of you dies
When you kill, those cells

It's a viscous circle
We're both caught in
As deaths observing
Through its own sin

Cancer, cancer
We don't need you
Become a dancer
And show love-true

Thanks for your time
We enjoyed company
Please take this rhyme
And again, be free

You guys are great
We've loved the ride
Let's clean the slate
And live love-inside

Cancer, cancer
We love you so
Find love-sincere
And with us grow

I grace you with
A kiss goodnight
In sleep dismiss
All urge to fight

It's early dismissal
The teachings done
Just become a thistle
Go poke-someone

Hidden Knowledge

I once didn't want to look in the mirror

I hated who I was in this world

I was disappointed in what I saw

But then I realized, it's never gonna be better

I started to see beauty, I never realized

You have to accept what you are

Forget about what you were

Be happy with what you are-you are alive

For staying alive, my love is waiting

Know that any of your worst fears, may happen

Realize that, you don't want them to happen

And forget about the silly notion

That fear would overcome-the love waiting for you

Have you ever opened your eyes to love

I'd love to share with you-your own beauty

I could love you, enough for both of us

Without you needing to do anything

There's beauty in you, even if you don't see it

I would

Love walks the edge

It becomes the ledge

When you know

And share your

KNOWLEDGE

           O

           V

           E

Let's me see the edge

So we can know the love

How can I know

Your edge

If you don't tell me

I just won't

I'd know only my love

Let our love

Become the ledge

So we can

Bring knowledge

We need

You Should, I Won't, I Will, I Could Never

You Should:

Be respectful, so we can be respected

Be poised, for you are my equilibrium

Be a good student, so we can be a good teachers

Be a good person, because I see that you are

Be imperfect, we all are-without each other

Be the person you want, for that is what I want

Complain about anything, how else would I see

Keep your beliefs, embrace mine, if you want

Never betray yourself, and do not ask it of me

I won't:

Complain about bad habits, because I have them too

Criticize your failures, because I see strength in persistence

Ever stop looking for new, and beautiful things about you

Set you up for failure, because that would be my failure

Lie to you, I know you're strong enough to hear the truth

Be overbearing with my voice, yours is just as important

Force you to do anything, I don't want to be forced

I Will:

Congratulate you when you do a good job, and when you don't

Help you see where you went wrong, you'll do better next time

Be happy all the time, you won't anger me-if you don't get angry

Listen to what you say-be willing to help me hear, and understand

Let you guide, I'll always walk beside, with my guidance

Bring you to your limits, so our life can be limitless

Laugh at our mistakes, for they are our perfections-yet to find

I Could Never:

Scream, there's no reason to, if anything, I'd rather you scream at me

Hurt you, because that would hurt more then hurting myself

Try to make you cry, because I'd cry with you, it feels better to be happy

Keep asking things of you, I'll ask nothing of you more then twice

Criticize your mistakes, I'll be there to help correct them

Expect you to be amazing everyday, because that makes me more amazing

Expect anything, because I like encountering the unexpected

Form a judgement, on things you can't control,

I'll try to help you gain control

Expect you to do everything, I'll do everything I can for you

Force you to do anything, I'll be there when you find what you do want to do

Make you what I want, because you are everything I want

Push you over the edge, because I don't want to lose you

Leave you in distress, my smile will always be there to help

Walking the Edge

Come with me

Walk the ledge

We won't fall

We'll fly instead

Trust in me

Take my hand

We're not perfect-but

We will stand

From each other

We will grow

My helping hand

Is yours-to show

Kill the Karma

Karma is a form, of self torment

Break the norm, feel the pain sent

We learn from pain, we don't have to live it

To know the gain, we just have to realize it

When living through the heart, feel both sides

What better time to start, then right now

Don't attach yourself to action-good or bad

We all live within our shadow, let's not be sad

Live, and let things go-do not judge

Love, and learn-get out of the mud

Don't hold yourself down, for something done or not

Don't sit and frown, just give it your best shot

There is no higher power, to come save us

We have to come together, in love and trust

We must forgive ourselves, not just each other

There's no one-hidden, behind a shutter

The Kiva

The sacred kiva, a place of inner reflection

It is my mirror, of this lives recollections

Showing me medicine, as I search for my place

Gifts that are given-help, to understand grace

It shows me my piece, of a puzzle-to complete

A road to enlighten, is a great road to meet

A confirmation of trust, between heart and mind

As realizations are thrust, in hopes to change time

The attitude I hold, in this world left a part

Inner-peace to be told, as I'm sharing my art

I write you my poetry, as if I was smoking a pipe

My gratitude to show thee, as we light up the night

Honoring all creation, no tobacco unsmoked

Spiritual communion, sent through the smoke

My prayer through living, in truth as I stand

Showing power through giving, withholding demands

Maintaining one-ness, my journey to success

I release with kindness, the tools to un-mask

The wheel of time, is spinning though me

Im baring what I am, so I can come back-to me

Respecting all gifts, spawns an intuitive sense

Answers are given, when my heart is content

All matter has spirit, connecting life energy

No need to fear it, just make it a memory

Visions of my relations, from bits of dried cedar

A way to illumination, nature sacrificed from fire

The roots I've created, for life to survive

By defining relations, a design-to devise

My Drop of Wisdom

Many traditions, are lost to the past

Most I don't know, though some cross my path

One just encountered, caught my gaze

One where sacred possessions, we're given away

Called a potlatch, from native teachings

'Twas to detach, from material needings

Disregarded, by the American man

Equality in life, was their demand

About releasing-to lose physical attachments

Giving things unwanted-considered a  sacrilege

If something was not utilized, it could be taken back

Is love's the same-and not accepted, should you turn your back?

Love not easily shown, has been my problem

I need it known, before I can do more shoppin'

If she doesn't realize, my love was real

Then-complete, is something, I'd never feel
