The Life of a Dream

If everyone got to live their dreams

Who'd write about them

Why'd you write about it unless it was broken so many times over and over again, that writing about them was the only way you could live it

Would you write about love if you weren't heartbroken


Broken dreams of some make a good recipe for dreams of many others and many more

The Last of Your Scars

 The last of your scars has healed today


The scars you had inscribed on my skin

Like Bukowski used to, on his typewriter

The last one of them grew skin today

The last of your scars has been washed away


Could I bleed some more for you?

Love Et Cetera

 It's not about finding someone who doesn't hurt

For when you love is when you entitle yourself to hurt

It's not about finding someone who wouldn't leave bruises and scars

For when yours bruises fade away and your scars grow skin is when you grow up



It's about finding someone who hurts and yet heals

It's about finding someone who gives your scars and yet caresses them like they were their own



Love does hurt, almost always

Does it heal, is the million-dollar question
