Our love doesn't have to be a war
Our love doesn't have to be a war, babe. It can be our peace. If only we will put down what we think we need, And give rise to what we truly want. CH 12/8/25

Hey, Kid, I’m sorry again You broke me, kid You gutted me And now I don’t know how to live You pulled away You left me in the cold So far from home Naked and alone And somehow I’m the bad guy Somehow I did exactly what you did And now I’m sorry again Now I’m the villain But, How you feel today, Jealous and scared, Angry and anxious, Is how I’ve felt for the last 180 days So Go back to your husband And your loveless life Go back to your

How Can We Fall In Love With What Isn't Real
Two days ago I found out that my new favorite musician is an A.I. And yesterday we let love die Today I am getting drunk And tomorrow . . . I don’t know what tomorrow will bring But Goddamn These lessons sting She was my plan She was my future And now I couldn’t feel any stupider How can we fall in love with what isn’t real? Is being alone really that bad? Maybe tomorrow I will get a motel room And get really drunk And try not to feel anything Maybe tomorrow I’ll try not to

Waking Up Cold
We go to sleep in love But wake up so cold She says she doesn’t love me anymore And I know she said it from her soul I can’t imagine a future for us any longer I could’ve sworn our love was stronger She needs to heal And I need a bottle whisky I wanted to do to fifty years And not give up the first time we feel our fears I never wanted to cry in front of her And I never imagined that I would ever have a reason to She loves me one moment And then I am the pit in her stomach a

Icarus Never Touched The Sky
The happiest kid Became the bitterest adult Telling everyone that the way he was was his parents fault Too prideful to ever ask for help Who he used to be started to melt Drowning in a sea of unspoken apologies He couldn't pay attention in class So never got that college degree Too busy watching cartoons and smoking weed Angry and scared Too arrogant to be aware Of the pit he was falling into His parents did their best when he was a child They were just a tad bit too re

The Infinite Possibility Of Cosmic Dust
The star explodes And the star dust has an infinite amount of ways it could go . . . The cosmic dust Created by the life and death of a star Gets scattered across the universe Giving birth To New stars, planets, and other celestial bodies and is found in interstellar space, meteorites, and comets. The star lives and then explodes And the star dust has an infinite amount of ways it could go . . . The space between stars is filled with stardust Space is not some empty

No Longer
No longer doing what he wants to do Now He starts doing what he needs to do He bled And now The whimsical kid is dead No longer allowed to dream dope No longer allowed to cling onto hope No longer allowed to waste time No longer allowed to play it safe No longer allowed to escape He accepts his fate As he heads into the fray. -CH 12/6/25

The Fuel For The Romantics
I was so sure that hope was a poison So sure of it But now After letting go And being buried in the snow I think some hope is probably a good idea I sorta think fear is the poison And hope is the antidote But Hope is what brought me here This was me conquering my fears Hope is what brought me here . . . And hope will keep me here. -CH 12/6/25

The One I Did See
I can’t see the future I can’t imagine one The one that I did see Died inside of me And nothing is replacing it Love, I went chasing it And now I am broke, alone, unemployed and homeless Hopeless I’m bloody hopeless I wish I would’ve framed the way she looked at me when she loved me When she was my twin flame My soul mate . . . I thought so, at least But now it all feels like a mistake Now it’s too late To save this We went to far We said too much We hurt too deeply There is

It Never Was A Fair Life
You were born without your permission, And you will die Without an explanation . But, You can find someone to spend your life with. You can adopt a dog; Or write a song. You can find hope, If you look for it. You can do a few things you will be proud of. You don’t have to do this alone. You can have kids, And be a hero to them. Or not. You could be an artist with a few good friends. You can live a life well lived before it

A whisper
Maybe this world really does need heroes. Maybe they shouldn't only exist in fiction. Maybe this world does need saving. Maybe this world is run by a few villains. Maybe the corruption and greed has taken over worse than ever before. Maybe radical action is needed. Maybe you are being constantly called to bring your potential forward. Maybe you can do it. Maybe you can. Maybe you are a hero to a few already. Maybe your actions can inspire others. Maybe you can do it. Maybe yo

Winter Will End Someday
This love, It hurts. She heals, And I hurt. What is this worth? How much can I take? Am I humble enough to admit my mistakes? Love shouldn’t hurt like this. I am not a punching bag. Not really, But I told her I’d stay steady while she healed. She promised me she was ready. She didn’t know what she was saying . . . And now it’s raining. Now it’s snowing. And it buries us. It buries us. I’m not as brave as Samwise, I can’t carry us. All

The Fool
Only a fool would sell all of his stuff Pack up his car And drive across the country To live with a married lady Who doesn’t even want to live with him Only a fool Would be defeated By the smallest speed bump in our road She tells me that asking her what to make us for dinner Is ruining this relationship Only a fool would fall in love with the idea of me And not who I actually am It’s thanksgiving And I want to go home Only a brave man would set aside his pride To admit h

Some Lessons Sting
These are just walls And beds. It's just a kitchen And some dishes. It's just a couch And a TV. Truthfully, my love, You are my home, Not the space between these walls. Wherever you go, Will you be my home To come back to When the sun sets, And the darkness comes? These are just walls. And a toilet. And a refrigerator. You are my home, my love. It's you. It's always been you. You are the home I waited for. Not the clothes in this closet. Not the shelf full of books. Not the
