POETRY
The first of three movements. While these were written chronologically in a different order, time is a fickle arrangement. These pieces deal with how we are often the worst we see in others and understanding that the one who needs to forgive you is yourself.

Such a beautiful lady
Such a beautiful girl
how I’d love to be in your arms tonight
yes I long to be
with such a beautiful lady
such a beautiful lady
such a beautiful lady
such a beautiful girl.
But beauty is only skin deep,
your skin is as deep as your soul
a soul so vast that the oceans bow
and the mountains crumble below
sea level
see you leveling me
to the ground
tell me could it be you found
mediocrity?
it brings me down
to sea level,
see you leveling me and my dreams
life is not as it seems
when your coming
your coming down
The way your lips move when you speak your curse
the way your hands push me into the hearse
you will be my demise
me and the angels cry
speaking your sweet, sweet, sweet soft
lies, like I’m the one with devil’s eyes.
