ONE OF THOSE DAYS

I'm feeling fired up do not try to cool my jets

Do not be condescending it only gets me revved

Do not pretend like you understand, I know when it's not sincere

You don't have to speak, I can feel and see loud and clear

I'm feeling uninspired you can try to lend some intrigue

It takes a lot to keep my attention, just a friendly reminder if you please

It takes even more for continuous engagement, just a fair warning

If you want to reach me your going to have to be a bit more giving

At the end of the day we all see things differently

I can not live in a world that bores me

There is fascination in many things

For the most part it’s only people that rub me the wrong way

So how do I cure this insatiable rage

Become a recluse and hide in my cave

Some times it gets lonely when no words are said

But then again those same words can have me seeing red

It is one of those days I guess there is no pleasing me

Tomorrow may be the same, guess I'll wait and see

Ringing phones, countless emails, so much bad luck or no luck at all

That is life so I've been told, no since crying over milk when it falls

Time to Set Sail

TIME TO SET SAIL

Things always run deeper than what our eyes see

Dirty dusty roads can also deceive

It is the story that lies behind the scenes

The grass is never greener even though it is green

It is what we take away from all our woes

How we react to the flying arrows

We can rise above or dodge every blow

We can also hitch a ride and go with the flow

Trust is an emotion that can only be earned

Courage is a feeling that some times burns

Willingness to rise above and eagerness to learn

Are rare traits that is not easy and often hurts

But in the end love will always prevail

One man used it to live in the belly of a whale

Faith is the tool that allows us to exhale

Now is the time to take a deep breath and set sail
