None can contain me
Stop my shine, nor quench my flares
I’m simply…Fiery



None can contain me
Stop my shine, nor quench my flares
I’m simply…Fiery



Mighty, mighty Satellites
Together, we preserve the tide
We wax, we wane, though never fade
Our force detected through the day
We’re New, we’re Full, we’re Gravity
No Cloud obscures the Light we see
A pow’r couple, acting odd
We, dwellers in the City of God

Here’s my smile, it can’t be “quiet,” for I feel Sunny
We’re alive, and in this moment, that is thrilling
This invitation I extend, yet I’m confounded
How most times, it goes unnoticed…unaccepted
But this fair soldier, marches on, undeterred
Undiscouraged, lacking any short-term mem’ry
If you see me, carry on, or you may join me
Either way, I cannot care…there is this mission

not alright to need
neither ought we pause to breathe
nor dawdle
to this I can’t concede
grasp for ev’ry next brass ring
should we choose to hold out hope
hope for one more decimal place
such mandate was tiring
trade our souls for bragging rights
nevermind the sunrise
harbor disdain in our eyes
instead I chose against the Night

I am the godsend
Who flew them to you
You won’t think to thank me
What learning you’ll do
We shan’t leave this life
‘Til this truth finds the mind:
Fairytale thinking,
That must stay behind

Maybe we needed That Wind
That Spirit, changing us from within
Raging ‘gainst our window’s panes
Rattling our beliefs about what’s right
When morning came
Sand was shook and rock now stands
How much longer would the night have been
Praise God for That Wind


Angel, walk from Heav’n
Then, with smile and a kind word
Bring me good coffee

Inspiration Crefit: Dedicated to my school principal and my students — thank you for all the @Starbucks gift cards!
I’ve prayed your errs away
You have new legs
Courage owns that heart
Your mouth’s filled with all the words you needed to say
I’ve petitioned for our yesteryears
Our carefree years
Before choices went awry
Endless chances to try and try
I’m becoming music
You’ll find your song
What eternity wanted
We hummed along

And I drove to the ocean
And laughed alot
Spoke of muscle cars with motor heads
Saw The Milky Way
And it was the first time
And the only time
Food tasted perfectó
Sand made sense
And although I ruined the piñas
And strayed too far from shore
Living has felt sweeter
Smiling has saved me

Dedication: To my family, to all flowers, and to best friends — whether I ever see them again.
