Silence, Do You Some Good?!

silence is more precious then gold.
leave the sound out of your mind.
focus on what you're feeling.
breathe slow and deep to relax.
can you reach a peaceful place yet?

close your eyes to block out the world.
hold yourself for comfort.
your the only one that's always there for you.
focus on every tactile brush of your hand.
come and find what sets you free.

do you need a pill to see?
are you addicted to the numbness?
let the anger flow out of you.
let the creativity take control of you.
reclaim your soul.

my dreams are full of darkness.
i ca't forget the pain.
i'm unable to focus my thoughts.
purgatory is living;
hell is ignoring you're alive.

freedom is relative;
i've built a hell hole.
my hidden self trapped.
focus on the light.
move toward the sunshine;
one step at a time.

i see.
i feel.
the numbness has begun to fade,
but here comes the pain!

Weekend

cram it all in,
keep your head down,
and race the clock to get ahead.
your whole world holds its breath
in antcipation of a long weekend.

don't ask any questions,
they'll just open confusion's door.
5 pm is the goal.
sooner is better, later is not an option.
you have plans and hopes for this weekend.

the work week sucks you dry.
the light dims behind your eyes
you need down time to unwind,
to live your passions,
and regnite the light inside.

you give more then you have.
it's time to take some back.
kick back and relax,
let the world spin without you for a minute.
nothing will explode if you don't open your e-mail.
the weekend is here
and it doesn't last forever.

no one expect more from you then you do.
cut yourself some slack.
life is brief and eternity is endless.
pick and choose your moments
and keep the weekend for yourself.
you've earned it so enjoy it!
