Heart Slammin'

Spitter spatter, you say what’s the matter

And I will tell you what’s wrong.

Sing a song of your greatest calamities,

Write me the melody and I’ll sing along.

You see I’m tired of people hiding their faces,

Puttin’ their sorrows in vases

Wrappin’ em up in cases

And other hidden places.

LIFE.

We’re alive, my friends, and with each passing day

Another opportunity passes away.

An opportunity to shine.

To love,

To show the Love from up above

To be real.

Because honestly, what’s the deal

With people runnin’ around like they’re wearing a crown

Rulin’ this town, they’re scufflin’ around.

I want to know your HEART.

I’ll sit you down; take off that crown.

I want your heart from the start.

I want to hear your passion

Tell me in any kind of fashion,

Make it short, but don’t skirt from the question.

I want to walk a mile in your shoes.

You can’t lose.

What do you want to do with your life?

How do you feel about

Strife? Does the pain of the world cut you like a

Knife? Striving for perfection is never the answer.

That realization crept upon me like a panther.

I want to tell you about it.

Let’s exchange stories,

Stories upon stories

Sharing life together,

The greats and the gories, we are so BLESSED

To be here together whether

Or not we realize it, our

Life is a feather.

Tonight we sleep and another day passes

A day of beauty in glorious masses

Moment upon moment,

If you would put on your glasses

You could SEE.

That life is too precious to hide your sorrows in a box

Keepin’ em’ up with little special locks

And with every tick tocks, tears are shed

From someone around the world mourning the dead

Sorrow and beauty in the same passing hour

Have you ever really thought of all of that power?

All of us laugh and all of us cry.

This remains true through the day that we die.

I wanted to write this poem so that in the end

We could share life together, as I call you my friend.
