Some times life is slowly ticking forward
Broke like the hands on an old pocket watch
Left for eons to the man three generations down
These times life is borrowed and licked towards
Smoke like the man with an old frequent lock
Best to be left to the makers simply drawn sounds
We write when we laugh to the time locked forward
Smoke like the band that left us here in a knot
With three thousand miles we have lost a friend
Drastic dreams that are crafted like a notion of sorrow
The pages turn as we run with a sacred book caught
In the life before we drop it passing a corner round
Wondering hermits finding the last of the torn pages
Wanderlust for the rest to pick up the pieces
The breast plate a metallic shade for us as sounds
Lessons taking from what a grand magnet decides
The term stolen and to the want not to have some
The pages with everything seem lost between the trees
I have already sent the letter, sir
I cannot change the whims of the worlds
I truly wish I could learn to speak for them
I cannot change the whims of the worlds

by Josh Andrews
So...
When the clouds rain down there sorrow relentlessly
I find my umbrella too small, my jacket too light
Uncertainty
It's an emotion that will cover your entire will
Continually making life a very bitter pill
Slowly creeping in it will cloud
by Jayne Scott
Run and hide,
all feelings inside,
hurt can only begin
when you let people in.
Dream of tomorrow,
a day stripped of sorrow,
