Choose Light - Poem


Choose Light

Darkness can take us over
I won’t let it
I’m not going to add to the problem
I will add to the solution
I will
The darkness is heavy duty
It knows what it’s doing
I respect it
I don’t fight it
I just don’t give in to it
I stay above it
I’m on top of it
Always
All the time
I choose to conquer it
Always
All the time
I choose to conquer it
We all have choice
Choose light
I stay above
Darkness is the ultimate defeat
I have to win
I must win
I do win.

Be Free And Shake It Off - Poem


Be Free And Shake It Off

All the past and all the world
Shrug it off
It’s too heavy for us
Be free of anything that holds you down
Shake it off
Move until the weight leaves you
We can do this
We can be free
The past is gone
There’s nothing you can do about it
Be free of the past
Shake it off
Nobody can carry the world
It’s too heavy
Don’t even try
Be free of weight
Be free and shake it off.

Everything Moves As One - Poem


Everything Moves As One

Load up
Overload
Only way to go
Move with power
Tear up the earth
Rip the world apart
Swing from the stars
Kick it
The world is ours
Now is ours
The future is ours
We own everything
We are everything
All nature
All mankind
It’s all one
Everything moves as one
Through history and the future.

The Future Is Good - Poem


The Future Is Good

See the future in the present
It’s invisible
It’s something
It’s coming at you
It’s coming at you
Ready or not
I want it
I’m ready
The future is good
I’m into it
I’ll love it no matter what shape it takes
The thought of it excites me
I’m pumped!
Jumped!
Psyched!
Excited!

Hard Lines - Poem


Hard Lines

It all falls into place
Once you make a strong decision
I run off hard lines
Clean definitions
I take a stand in the moment
Then I roll it across space and time
Works for me
I need hard lines
Taking a stand in the present
Alters my future for the better
I make the future happen by
Organising the present right now
Play your hand
Think about what you need
Make a decision and stick to it
Cut a clear line in the sand
Strike the present hard
Make the future how you want it
Back yourself
Lead your partner, and be lead by them
Both are needed
Lead with clarity and love
Receive with clarity and love
Operate the present and future
Like a professional.

The Best Parts Over And Over - Poem


The Best Parts Over And Over

Pick the best parts
The main bits
Work them over and over again
Stay with them forever
Never leave
They’re very important
Your partner, your work, your life
Stay with them
Over and over
You get more and more
As you give more and more
Longer time
Better results
Stay on it
Work it
You’re doing well
Keep going
Go through the rough patches
Don’t turn back
When problems come
When problems arise
Run over the top of them
Go for it
Go with it
Go through it
Over and over.

Give It A Kick - Poem


Give It A Kick

When you have the time
Go for it
When you find some space
Go hard for it
We only have so much life
Our time is a box
Maximise your square space
Push it all to the edge
Let it flow
Let it spill over the side
It’s our life
We have some control
Give it a kick
Have a shot
Pull down the stars
The sun is a vision of heaven
We can’t lose.

A Method For Power - Poem


A Method For Power

It’s a rush
I’m on the run
Only certain times for this
The spaces are limited
I maximise them
I work in a box
I set the timeframe
Wide open space drifts around
I channel lightning
I pull it down
I’m a machine
Maximum capacity
I push it
I overload
Simplify all parts
A method for power
A design to maximise what I have
A design to maximise what I don’t have
Harness the external forces
A plan
A practice of power.

Pure New Colour - Poem


Pure New Colour

I’m calm
Dreaming of us melting together
Nothing can keep us apart
We melt
We keep on melting
Our closeness is endless
We just get closer
No matter how we shoot off
Or come up for air
The spiral pulls us in
Joins us closer
Mixes our colours
Makes a new colour
Never seen
Pure new colour
Unknown
Strong
Manageable
Exciting.

Our Way Is The Way - Poem


Our Way Is The Way

Dreams happen
Miracles are real
These are not airy thoughts
They are hard reality
They're real
Fact

Here she is
Out of the void
All over my life
What sweet joy
Heavy duty joy
She's in a league of her own
No contenders
There is nobody else but her
I'm amazed
Jaw on the floor
Knocked out
I love it
Yes

Negative people are wrong
Nobody knows us, but us
Our way is the way
Not their way
We stick to our guns
We follow our invisible path
Only we can see it
Go without fear
Go with confidence
Power and love are with us.

Your Fear And Knife Protect Your Heart - Poem


Your Fear And Knife Protect Your Heart

You pull your heart out
You show me your blood
You let down your walls
It makes your mind go crazy
You’re scared of love, and me
You protect your fragile heart with weapons
Your heart is on the table
Your heart lays there, in the open
I want it, I love it, I’m drawn to it
Oh no, you stand in the way with
Your mind of fear and your vicious knife
You turn your fear into viciousness
Your natural defence
I’m not put off
I love you too much
I love your sheen
I love your defences
I love your heart
I’m not put off by any part of you
I’ll take your knife off you
I’ll ease your mind
I’ll ease your life
I will love your heart forever.

Live In Me - Poem


Live In Me

I feel content with you
There’s nothing I’d change
We’re both in a state of improving
We get better
We get closer
We let each other in, more and more
Keeping people at a distance
Like I’ve always done
Doesn’t apply to you
Come right in
All the way
As far as you can
Come, come in
I’m part of your home
I’m secure, loyal and safe
A home of love
Live in me.

Our Romantic World - Poem


Our Romantic World

Romance
Style
Class
Smooth and cool
Romantic
Classical
Modern
It’s our time
Just us
All our romantic ways that
Nobody knows
They see some, but we know all
We operate behind closed doors
Under the radar
Just her and me
Our romantic world
It’s our world
Smooth, classy and stylish
I love this
I love her
I love our romantic world.

Howling At The Moon - Poem


Howling At The Moon

You drive me wild
This love makes me wild
I love it so damn much
I’m crazy for you
I’m into our love, this time, us
I’m red hot for it
Our future is my hero
Each day, what you do, what you say...
It adds to me
Good day or bad day
It builds me up
I breathe you
I sweat you
Howling at the moon
I’m hot for your overflowing love
I’m crazy for you.

Heaven In Motion - Poem


Heaven In Motion

Life is a car
That drives us to heaven
It’s happening now
Life is part of heaven
We know some of it already
Heaven in motion

It’s not just sky and earth
It’s gold dust
The finest stuff
A one-off
One shot
Hit or miss
What a thrill

Love came down 
From a palace in the sky
Love is turned on now
I found it in her
She is the Queen of my country
She rules my heart
All my land
Across the way
Down the track
Inside and out
Front to back

In gold we roll
You in me
Me in you
We’re a unit
Solid movement
Living heaven on earth
On our way to
Heaven forever.
