when hate is superior,
conflicts are born
when love is present,
relationships rewrite the rules
when anger is allowed to mature,
it dulls the senses like a mist
and can quickly turn into bittersweet revenge
but when happiness forms,
it gives us a chance to change
the bad future
for love,
happiness,
and overall peace.

not a novelty hat or a painted picture
I give you a compass
a directional pocket watch
it gives you hope
when in solitary confinement
battling the elements
directing you home
hear
it will take you on adventures
over rolling hills
and treacherous peaks
essential to your survival
take it
it will never fail you
no matter how warm
or cold
dry or wet
it will point you wherever you want to go
consistent
whatever journey you take
this compass will be there
a slice of me guiding you home
