State of Mind

I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me,

but it's hard to stay mad when there's so much beauty in the world.

Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's too much.

My heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst.

And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it.

And then it flows through me like rain.

And I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid fucking little life...

Angelic pause

And she came and smiled at me

Life's overbearing monotony for a moment to flee

True character,no place for lies

Innocent charm shone from her beautiful eyes

Sometimes she spoke and minced no word

Sometimes she chirped like a sweet little bird

But always there was something sweet

Something to make me skip a beat

Agreements and discord,correctness and flaw

In the brief interregnum, most I saw

But in all these, an angel I found

In the beauty of her soul, her sights and sound

Complexities and thoughts, confused and mired

But her angelic pause I will always desire

Its not easy to have another chance

But with her..always hope for that second glance

And as the sand clock empties and time flies

I realize

Without an angel there is no paradise..
