Be Careful 04:08
Be careful about the things you say Be watchful of the prayers you pray For no one knows the damning damage You can do like I do Be careful Be careful what you throw away Or believe me there'll be hell to pay I thought I understood you, how could you? You know I'm only damaged goods without you Be careful Tell you what I'm gonna do I'm gonna try to swallow you To make it understandable You've got to feed the animal Tell you what I'm gonna do I'm gonna try to follow you But if you don't want me anymore Be careful what you wish for Be careful

Thin Ice 01:05
Based on a poem by Koura Linda. I no longer want to hesitate as I slowly skate moving along at any rate when my heartbeat races and I'm caught making faces to my reflection I want to dive in.

Letters 03:06
Based on a poem by Joe. You're gone. No mailing address. But I send you letters anyway.

I Dream 01:43
Based on a poem by StephMadi. Sitting where I am But not where I want to be My imagination is more alive Than any part of me It consumes me To the very center of my core I know I can do better I know there is more I have always dreamed so big The sky was the limit But you don’t know how hard the world can be Until you are living in it I hope, I try, I fail, I bleed I dream, I see, I want, I need

Late great flowers bloom Over grandma's tomb Where grandpa was buried Pallbearers carried The tune through the trees A white painted breeze Over shivering black coats Smoke-lung parade floats Past Jesus as a sheet ghost A snow-colored Holy Host Visions left unheard Far beyond remembered Dead songbirds sing amen When the late great flowers live again Icicle-covered stones Rise above dead bones Embedded bodies get cold feet And dreams left incomplete Leave all those hard-earned savings In hyphenated engravings I miss my dead grandparents In dreams they make appearances While the cemetery freezes They rest in peace and I rest in pieces Visions left unheard Far beyond remembered Dead songbirds sing amen When the late great flowers live again

Wonder Where 01:38
Based on a poem by Magi*c. wonder where you are wonder when you return you sweet feeling of courage & self-esteem
7.
Wilting 00:57
Based on a poem by KayBeckz. She's looking less like a wildflower and more like a weed. Best put her in the sun a bit and let her breathe. Toss some water over her head for clarity Take the needle out of her arm and root her in reality.

The Tree 01:42
Based on a poem by Matt Conley. Father made me chop down the tree It was back then, back when I was small Twenty strikes was what it took The tree shrieked, bent, then folded flat Snow wrapped itself around the dead limb Shivering, I sobbed into my scarf I watched father drag the tree away Later he burned it as we watched TV The flames flickered, cracking in the air The bark burned to bits of dust And I never felt colder in my life
9.
Based on a poem by poetic_dreamer. Here I lay in time and pray for colorful nightmares and cry for grey dreams. My sweet porcelain doll is my own reflection in the promise land. we speak that one day roses will die passion will strive and then will you know your mind is frozen in time from all said and done over time those broken records will leave you in a cycle of all that is a lie
10.
Child In Me 01:48
Based on a poem by Siddiqua. Tiptoeing silently, delightfully, excitedly. Knick knacks, marbles. Cardboard and sparkles. Kept in the safest place. A smile comes to my face. I begin to comprehend, to mystify. That's when the child in me said goodbye.
