Unmasked
-stripping love naked
She looks at me through,
A side-view beauty
Strumming cords off-
Her guitar
Her mind
Her sanctum
Her haven
-music
Let's go somewhere we've never been,
Find our way to another escape.
Maybe we can make it far,
Blend the wind with our skin-
To tide our shores, to cleanse our sins.
Crumble the rocks beneath rubber,
Burn the souls of yesterday past.
Grab the breeze outside the car,
Ridge the pattern of broken art-
Shading us cold yet warms our heart.
You've got a fast car,
Let treble bash with melodies.
Creating future chemistry,
To sleep below our dyer thoughts.
Everything gets better with-
You beside
You asleep
You and me
-together
Slowly pull the ballad close,
See my old man had a habit,
He couldn't leave the brittle bottle.
Spewing through his loving hands,
Letting it corrode with little care
Paying no mind o whoever there.
I dropped out to take care of him,
See he told me that I was young-
Couldn't afford to know what's work
Leaving me to fend off sweet
Charity grins of a wealthy tree.
She came to me under
One degree...
Find her heart to set it free.
Shroud the noise that clouds it,
Break away with each sonnet speech.
Pardon the interruptions,
Tip toe on through what's reality.
Father passed when I was just sixteen,
Only knew what he gave to me.
Respect, pride, justice and truth
And I laid on her belly to sleep.
Becoming one in an instant we drive
An drove till the gas hit E.
Parking alongside happiness,
Binding what we couldn't see-
Together we shaped our lives,
Around one another to see what needs.
-us
As thunder rolled down grey clouds,
I shifted in the driver seat.
Trying to get closer...
To what I thought was a melody.
Deep inside behind her chest
Played the ballad of what father left.
Love I finally found.
So left the case with all the money,
Started from scrap
To bless the world with-
Respect, Pride, Justice and truth.
She said,
You gotta fast car-
Let's take the trip out the city,
Travel the wide array of life.
Don't stop for nothing,
Till we both feel peace
Seep from our souls.
Grab only the car keys,
Leave the rest behind close doors.
Cape cod, and a heineken
Was the refreshing point,
Of where true love began
.
.
.
He told me to take things lightly,
Let trouble work themselves out.
Don't bend for nothing,
Unless you know in the end
-it's what you felt
Was right to be done.
Well gladly I took his common sense.
"A compliment is something like a kiss through a veil." -Victor Hugo
