I am not an Alcoholic

I am not an alcoholic:
I am just a man
A man who can.
Taste the beer,
      it’s ok
      it’s ok.

Drink the wine,
       mighty fine
       mighty fine.

I can take or leave it,
but I take it every time;
    everyday is my way
of toasting the earth in all its Beauty;
soaking in all the complex sights and aromas;
One drink that’s all I ask.

One drink, and Another,
Why not another?
It broadens the mind
Leads to more of its kind.

I want to be your man

I’m jealous of your mother 
I’m jealous of your father 
I’m jealous of myself when I spent time with you. 

Please don’t hold it against me
I only want to be with you. 

I want to know you every way I can.
I want to be with you 
All day and all night. 
I’m there when you turn out the light 
And with you 
Every bright, brilliant day. 

I hope you understand 
I want to be your man.

I choose Love

I choose Love.
I throw off Fear.
I embrace You and
all life can show me.

I choose positivity.
I reject shame and Guilt
     in all its guises.
I choose energy

And Love Everlasting.

I believe in the future

Believe in the future; the future believes in you. Matt Russell Instagram

I wander but I’m never lost

I wander but I’m never lost as I gaze at the night sky.
The clouds are blown away
revealing an incredible firmament
filled with millions of stars
each one burning so brightly
they fill my soul with fire;
a fire so hot I feel like I’m burning
     from the inside out.

Only you can extinguish
these intense flames that
consume my mind, body and soul.
