Nearly 100 Years Old   Nearly one hundred years old One hundred years of a life spent well The days stretch further now The diamonds of life's DNA still dazzle Friends are still here with him, just not in flesh and blood Their words still echo, their faces like the moon or the sun In a world still where dreams are not grown, they're sold now But still he lives, with both feet touching the ground A real vision he possess Aged eyes, yet still with the curiosity of a child Wearing a smile like a comfy robe With the knowledge that when you are in doubt You are the most alone, alone he is not An audience of curiosity watch the old man As he stretches out his body and balances his mind Life expectancy is to be cherished not expected.

No Just Counting Sheep For Him He made a pact with Satan He kept quiet about talking to God too He wanted his time on earth to be productive Even if the price to pay is a shorter time than most have He didn't want to become a name that fades. He beats friends black and blue Loyalty is harsh, when here comes the black moods He embraces his enemies close to his chest To know who they are lets him live a life without fear. Gold records in the safe Guarded by the portrait of his mother Not a day goes by when he doesn't hear her criticise Sleep is sleep when a friend closes his eyelids for him. Harmony and peace cling to the top of the ladder That he is trying to climb up No just counting sheep for him. V Topp

Pack Better Dreams You enter the gates Push the rusty hinges with their old groans And walk into my world Your choice to enter was free will But it was a manifestation of my gift to you. The silence is turned up, the thoughts are stacked up Waiting for the first push, the motion of momentum You were not the first of the flock to return home Following in the light of forgiveness And you won't be the last But for you there is still sand in the timer The candle has not burnt down What did you want to be as a child? Has it come true for you? The bully that is life Has claimed another victim So i will give you a reprieve I want you to meet your destiny So take what you need and pack better dreams V Topp  

Mental Wealth This is my place, This is yours You can come back to who you really are here The dreamer stays To taste the rain The nature's rust Tans the skin As the birds make music again With the only conductor being the new day Home is here. Here is always home Do you know where you belong? I do, I do Watching a grey squirrel pat down his buried treasure I saw him pretend five time before On his dummy runs, to confuse the competition This is where the real x marks the spot It's what i can see It's what i can hear It's what i can feel Flickering white glimpses of light The cracks of surprise Like timid ghosts Rain broke the silence of thinking The vibration is ringing like a bell Give me this beautiful vaccine For the sake of my mental wealth The only wealth I want V Topp

Making The Next Life Easier Is this our one and only life, right now The only life, The only life we’ll live? Have I been here before? Have we been here before? Do you keep coming back until you remember? Born with a purpose not with sin to work off If we fail the judgment in this lifetime for this lifespan Are we sent back down? What I said, What I didn’t, What I did, What I should have done What I thought, What I tried to forget Could I do it all over all again Should I do it all over again, Do I have to do it all again? Is déjà-vu the sleepy acknowledgment Of a past existence God’s finger is on the reboot button As I near to remember my failures If you blink as fast as a thought is born Could you see the truth’s parallel spiral Could you remember a little bit more than you’ve forgotten To make the next life a little easier for you V Topp

Long Time Awake The mountains scratch the sky Birds of prey shield the sun from unprotected eyes Nature is secure, Nature is the ruler. Clouds sprinkle rain with magical restorative powers There's fortune in this land, above and below the ground Everyday is a gift, Natural fulfilment the reality. The seas are high but the waves are mellow Everything's in order, everyone has their own space Eternal unity, Sensible philosophy 'One day at a time, One day at a time'. The hours go slowly by, Long time awake V Topp
