Your Name

Your Eyes

I… Was just Minding my Business

And…

You… Were just Standing there

I… Didn’t Mean to be Rude

But…

I… Couldn’t Help But Stare

There…was just Something

About… You

Your Name

Corey Chapman

Your Eyes

I… Was just Minding my Business

And…

You… Were just Standing there

I… Didn’t Mean to be Rude

But…

I… Couldn’t Help But Stare

There…was just Something

About… You

I… Couldn’t tell if I Was Something in your Eyes

Or…

Maybe if it was just Something about how you looked in your Hair

The Only thing I Knew for Certain

Was…

That… There was Not another like You in that Room

Not a One…

Who… Could even Slightly Compare

I… Went into my Head

Asking all those Familiar questions we All Know

The Who…

The What…

And… Then, Yes… even the When

And… The Where…

I… Walked right up to You

In what I thought was Strong and Confident… With Reasonable Care

But…

When I Got to Your Table…

All I Could See was your Eyes

They Took me right out of my Cold and Sweaty Despair

You… were Just So Wonderful

You… were Just So Free

Nothing Else Mattered… right then

Those moments belonged to Your Eyes and Me

We… Talked for Hours and Hours

We… Laughed

You… even Cried

But… when the Night Was Over

I… knew… I Had Met My Angel

The Soul… I… know… I Could finally… Confide

Empirical Miracles

Everything… Is a Miracle

There Is A Lot of Evidence to back it Up

But… Nothing Empirical

And… If You Tell the Wrong Person

They’ll Find you… Hysterical

Miracles are Empirical

Everything Is a Miracle

What Evidence do You Have for That?

Empirical

Ha! Yea Right! You’re Hysterical

Mistaken Rhymes

When You try rhyming Words

Do You ever Wonder…

If Your Rhyme has Already been Taken?

There is Probably a Good Chance

That… The Rhyme May be The Same

But…

If They Say The Message is Too

Just… Let Them Know

You’re Mistaken

And… Then…

If They Ask You… ‘ who are You to Talk to Me Like This?’

Just Tell Them…

… Mr. C

After All…

It’s Always Better to Leave Them with a Little Mystery

New People

I… Always Get Shy when Meeting Someone Who is New

I … Never know What to Say

But… if you are Aware

There… Are a Lot of Things you Could Do

For Instance…

You Could Say, “Hey”

Or…

You Could Ask them, “how is Your Day?”

Or…

And… This Next One Might Sound Just a Little Cliché

But…

If you Can’t Think of Anything to Say

You Could still just Walk Away

Ok?

Hands

Please… Please… Understand…

Nothing Else Matters

When You Take Me By the Hands

I Don’t Even Need the Best Laid Plans

With Your Touch…

I’ve already found My Hold Land

I’d Admit it on The Witness Stand

Cause… when I’m with You

I Feel Like the Leader of the Band

On Our Way…

To the Promised Lands…

Anything You Wish…

Is My Command

So Please…

Just Take My Hands…

One

More

Time

Let’s Live Our Lives… On Demand

Our Wishes Will Come True

We Are Like That Oasis in the Desert… Hidden Among the Many, Many Grains of Sand

And…

Even if Everything Goes Unplanned…

Together Forever

We

Will

Withstand

Cause… With One Touch of Your Hands

You… Changed all My Plans

My Plans… For the Future

And…

My Views… Of my Past

They Didn’t Mean a Thing…

Our Worlds were Ignited…

At

Very

Long

Last

Now… I Can Rest My Head Easy

And… Find You in My Dreams

The World… Seems Much Smaller Now

And…

Everything We’ve Always Wanted…. Is Much Closer than It Once Might have Seemed

I… Will Leave You With This… One Last Point to Make…

I Believe in Myself

Although… I Know Not Yet… All I Can Take

Speak Blessings of Your Angel When it Happens to You, Too

I Did…

Now I Am Finally Awake

When We Finally See Clear.. We know that Life is Just ‘the game’

So… Never Stop Playing…

After All…

It’s All for Making your Name

Deep Emotions

Some People…

There Emotions Just Run So Deep

They’re Not Easy to Hide

You Can Tell Who These People Are

By…. How They Make you Feel on the Inside

Also…

They Tend…

To Be…

Unfamiliarly…

Kind

But…. I’m Sure of That…

That You Don’t Mind

Problems

Tell Me All Your Problems

Even… After I’m Dead

I Am Forever Your Friend

Through… It… All…

Even…

Through… The… End…

So… You’ll Give Me All the Answers?

I’ll Give You What I Can

The Kiss

I See the Girls

And…

I Know they Want me to Go in for the Kiss

The Problem is…

All the Girls I Want to Kiss…

I Lose the Guts to Do it

Be Strong

When She Died…

Everyone Told me to ‘Be Strong”

How Were they supposed to Know their Advice was so Wrong?

The Truth is…

I Have Always been Strong

I Have Been Strong… All Along

And….

Although I Appreciate All the Advice …

That You Seem to All be Giving

For Your Sake, Though

Please Take Your Own Advice….

Just Start Living

Birds

Birds…

They Only Sing to Us

They have seen Us as Equals

Ever Since They Learned…

That… We Knew…

How… they Flew

Your Name

I Saw You…

I Didn’t Know your Name, Yet

And…

You Didn’t Know Mine

And…

That Was Just Fine

Because…

I Learned your Name

And…

You Learned Mine

Then… One Day it was Funny…

We Both…

Couldn’t remember a Time…

That…

I Didn’t Know Your Name

And…

You Didn’t know Mine

an Orphaned Wolf & a Polar Bear

A Wolf and a Bear…

Together?

That’s really Rare

It is…

But try not to Stare

I’ll bet it Happens All the Time with Them, Though

That Duo…

They Probably don’t even Care

What is a Yeroc? (Dead-end Start)

The Path for my Life Started on a Dead End

Whenever I’d Reach the Turn-Around in the Road…

It Was Always a New Place to Begin

And…

I will never back down and Simply Give in… and Relinquish…

That’s too Easy

The Paths to Begin Again Most Often can Blend… and be Hard to Distinguish

Don’t go through This Life So Briefly

Give it Your All

Love Completely

Because…

When the Path for your Life Starts out on a Dead End…

Whenever You Reach the Turn-Around in the Road…

It Will Always be a New Place to Begin

And… When…

No Matter How Many Times…

We Would Walk to That Place…

Again and Again and Again

No Matter How Many times…

On that Particular Road…

It Would Always… still come To an End…

But… One Day…

You Decided not to Turn

To Keep Walking Through…

And…

I Followed You

It Was of no Matter Where You were Going

It was just Something You Felt… You Needed to Do…

I’ll Never Quite Know what made Me Keep Walking that Day

Other Then…

I was Also Trying to Find Something New…

I Just wanted to… Continue… Walking Too…

The Reason…

I Had no Clue

But…

The Path kept Going and Going

There was No Need to Turn Around

And…

The Further we Walked into the Woods…

The Easier it Was

to Distinguish

All of Natures

Beautiful Sounds

No More Hustling and Bustling of the Cars driving By…

Just the Rustling of the Leaves on the Ground

There was Something else in the Woods with Us, too

If Only we had Knew…

It Was Late

And…

We Were Tired

And…

Decided to Sit Down on the Ground

I Drew a Picture of a Yeroc in My Notebook

And I Also Drew a Map of His Home Town

And…

After Our Nap…

With Me, You, and Yeroc

This was to Be…

Our Quest to Explore

Our New Playground

Before..

Anyone Else

On the Bank

This…

Is The Story

Of the Life

Behind

The Dreams

We Run…

We Play…

We Climb…

We Sing…

But…

We’re Always just “swimming in the Stream”

But… Then One Day

When You Are Closest to Your Darkest Fears

And… Sinking… Moving…

Ever Closer to Your Brink

You Find…

That…

You Can Touch the Bottom

You Can Never really Sink

Your Darkest Fears…

They Then… Will Suddenly… Cease to Be

As You Make Your way to the Bank

And… Next…

The Skies will Open up to You..

As You’re Left Wondering….

Who…

To… Thank
