Love's Springtide
My heart was winter-bound until
I heard you sing;
O voice of Love, hush not, but fill
My
life with Spring!
My hopes were homeless things before
I saw your eyes;
O smile of Love, close not the
door
To paradise!
My dreams were bitter once, and then
I found them bliss;
O lips of Love, give me again
Your
rose to kiss!
Springtide of Love! The secret sweet
Is ours alone;
O heart of Love, at last you beat
Against
my own!

Mind Suicide
I've boarded up the windows to keep the morning from intrusion
I've left it on the doorknob,
could you please just not disturb
On days like this we find it so hard to push ourselves up and out of bed
When nothing
falls in favor of
I have so many things I would like to explain to you
But I don't know just how to communicate
I
can't take this body shaking
Dress and we'll begin
Nights can be so violent when beds become vacant
So now I've blown
it once again,
this would have been the last offense and
You should have been here months ago with open arms and honest
face
Addres full doubt you've ever felt frustration well I'm choking on it now
And it's the hardest thing for me to
shake
Is it because of this vacancy that you swear never to believe?
Honestly honest me, with a look that's so deceiving
I'll
bite, chew, swallow, and digest the hands that feed me
With a bayonet for a tongue,
Swallow swords inadvertently,
And
to the organ flame I'll maintain a close adjacency
I have so many themes; I would love to explain to you
Farewell to
all the days you were, within my reach,
and as of right now everything is making perfect sense.

If Ever You Return
If ever you return
I will treasure each moment
With you...
each smile,
each
tear,
each glance, and
each word.
I shall cherish your
Every waking hour
To store each memory
To the very detail,
To
hold dear to my heart
If ever you return.
For without you is
Misery to not remember
Your laughter
And mine --
Only
recalling the
Bitter parting.
If ever you return
I shall paint the very picture,
Write the very book
To capture
you eternally
If you ever you leave again.

This Poor America
Idle child,
Dirty mind.
Our nation.
One nation, under god.
Our laws protect
the guilty.
Good intentions
Were not good enough
When it came to
Raising this child.
The freedoms we've
Allowed
ourselves
Amount to freedoms
To piss on each other.
Disrespect and disillusion.
Times have changed in the
Last
fifty years -
The old blood of old worlds
Has been "sanitized" with
American blood - tainted
With violence, disloyalty,
Disregard
and contempt
Or hard working immigrants.
Our society mocks them -
We have become spoiled bastards.
It sickens
me to think that
With this beautiful freedom,
We do not take responsibility.
Land of the free,
Home of the slave
To
ignorance and sloth.

The Forgotten One
She aches,
As we all do sometimes.
Simple, sad, lonely.
Her clothes are worn in obvious places,
Her heart is torn with obvious traces.
Alone and aimless,
She drifts down a crowded street
Like a phantom amidst the crowd.
People
oblivious to the essence of her,
Only aware of her tattered shell,
She is denied eye-contact
And human emotion.
Broken and failing to
Gather the shards of
Herself.
She is alone and wanders
Like a dry leaf that has
Fallen from the
Tree Of The
Living.

THIS HALLOWED EARTH
This hallowed earth
Has wrought memories
And conjures voices
Of long ago
Mornings
with you
This hallowed earth
Is anointed with
Tears and sighs,
Flowers die
While
mourning
For you.
_______________________________________________
SHROUDED
The acrid air of loneliness
Surrounds me like a black shroud
Upon my headstone
is written
"WITH SOLITUDE LIES CONFORT"
But there is no comfort here
To be alone, in a world
Of millions is a tragedy
Wandering aimlessly
For a faint
light of hope
To lead you forth
In the abysmal future
Its bane is suffocating
What shall I want but
To lie down, tired and cold
Deep in the earth,
Feel my
bones solidify
Into calcified rock,
Become one with
The cosmos, feeling
The weight of earth
Upon my chest
As
my heart lighte
_______________________________________________
I NEVER SAW IT COMING
I never saw it coming;
When the insults flew
And words were said in spite,
When
push came to shove
And it all echoed through the night,
I never saw it coming.
I tore your shirt and
Begged you not to leave,
I wanted to finish it then
Leave
you with no reprieve,
And I never saw it coming.
For all the hatred between
The two of us through our years,
Through all the heartbreak,
Breakups, fights and tears,
I never saw it coming.
Yet even when the barrel
Was staring me in the face,
I mocked your intentions,
And
fed your disgrace,
I never saw it coming

CONCRETE AND URINE
The long day
Draws to a close
Like the ice house
At 2:00 a.m.
Straggling figures
Shuffle the streets
In ritualistic chaos.
Slaves of different
shades.
The dank urine smell
That is neither
Washed by rain or flood
Solidifies the
aura.
_________________________________________
SELF-HATE
I should release
This cancerous rage,
Unburden my hear
And spew forth the
Contempt
I feel inside.
I should shatter worlds
And split heavens
Like so much filth
Underfoot.
I should crawl inside
Myself, swallow myself
And hide in shame
For all the loathing
That
embitters my
Tongue.
I should do all these
Things and cleanse
The grit and impurity
That has long
Enveloped
my soul.
As my heart lightens
At last.

No One Suits Me
I know that I should try to find somebody new..
But all I find is myself always thinking
of you..
You dont even know it.. And why should you care?
Your happy just pretending that Im not even there..
Forever
means nothing if I dont spend it with you..
But theres just nothing more I think I can do..
I try to tell you I love
you but you just dont stop to listen..
Then I guess youll never know that Im the one your missin..
Give me just one
minute and look into my eyes..
Forget your friends.. Forget the world.. Forget the pain and lies..
Forget about what
people say and what other people might see..
All I want you to think about now is what you think of me..
Cause nothing
really matters except for the people you love..
And it kills me inside not knowing what you think when your all Im thinking
of..
Maybe I am wrong and you really just dont care..
But why sometimes do you act so sweet if no feelings are accually
there..
All I want is for you to tell me exactly how u feel..
Id rather be hurt than keep believeing what you say is
real..
Wether you tell me you love me or not this will still be true..
Nothing in this whole damn world could keep me
from loving you..
____________________________________________________
When Alone..
If you feel the breeze
Underneath your naked skin
Then it was my touch
When you hear a sound
A silent whisper you sense
It would be my call
Things will always change
But forever in your eyes
I will stay unseen.

Death Becomes You
I love your skin oh so white
I love your touch cold as ice
And I love every single
tear you cry
I just love the way you're losing your life
**************************************
In Your Heart
Ohohohohoh my Baby, how beautiful you are
Ohohohohoh my Darling, completely torn apart
You're
gone with the sin my Baby and beautiful you are
You're gone with the sin my Darling
I adore the dispair in your eyes
I worship your lips once red as wine
I crave for your
scent sending shivers down my spine
I just love the way you're running out of life
Let me wake up in your arms
Hear you say it's not alright
Let me be self dead and gone
So
far away from life
Close my eyes
Hold me tight
And bury me deep inside your heart
All I ever wanted was you, my love
You...all I ever wanted is you, my love
Your're
all I ever wanted, just you
Let me never see the sun
And never see your smile
Let us be so dead and so gone
So
far away from life
Just close my eyes
Hold me tight
And bury me deep inside your heart
*************************************
Beautiful
Just one look into your eyes
One look and I'm crying
'Cause you're so beautiful
Just one kiss and I'm alive
One kiss and I'm ready to die
'Cause you're so beautiful
Just one touch and I'm on fire
One touch and I'm crying
'Cause you're so beautiful
Just one smile and I'm wild
One smile and I'm ready to die
'Cause you're so beautiful
Oh and you're so beautiful
My darling
Oh you're so beautiful
You're so beautiful
Oh my baby
You're so beautiful
And you're so beautiful
Oh my darling
Oh my baby
And you're so beautiful
*************************************
Love & Lonely
In love and lonely
In love and lonely
I'm not with you my baby
Just to see you cry
I'm in love with you
Not the tears
in your eyes
I can't remember
The last time you smiled
Oh I know how it feels
I know what
it's like
To be
In love and lonely
In love and lonely
Don't what to do my baby
It's not alright
This can't be the end
The time to say
good bye
No I won't walk away that easy
After all this time
Oh you know how it feels
You
know what it's like
To be
In love and lonely
In love and lonely
Oh you know how it feels
You know what it's like
You know how it is
But you just
can't stop crying
In love and lonely
In love and lonely
In love and lonely
In love and lonely
************************************
I DO
On my heart I'll bear the shame
No prayer can ease the pain
No one will love you
No one will love you the way I do
No one will love you
Love you like I do
And there's no escape
Just countless mistakes
No one will love you
No one will
love you the way I do
No one will love you
Love you like I do
It will never be the same
Witness trust fade away
No one will love you
No one
will love you the way I do
No one will love you
Love you like I do
No one will love you
No one will love you the way I do
No one will love you
Love
you like I do
Love you like I do
Love you like I do
Love you like I do
Love
you like I do

Morning Mourning
I came for you again today
Led my self blindly
Knowing you wouldn't be there
You
left this scar upon me
My skin cringes at the thought of you
The way you left me alone without a warning
I
lay asleep where we used to meet waiting for the morning dew
To touch my face and join me in this place of mourning
....To Be Continued....
___________________________________________________
Are YOU Happy?
The roses you gave me are dying on my shelf
Wilted and broken not unlike myself
Notes over-flowing out of a heart shapped box
Saying you'll still love me when all hope
is lost
Tears stream down a porcelin cheek
There everything you said to me seems so cheap
What happened to
I'll always love you
What happened to
I'll never leave you
I
wish I could make it go away
But the feelings seem to stay
Killing me harshly
I wish I could erase me
Our anniversaries marked on my calender
Indicating us forever
I still can't accept the fact we're over
I guess I'll continue to
cover
up infront of you
___________________________________________--
Never More
You make me sick the way your eyes are so beautiful
The way they fucking gleam when the
light hits them so
Those lips, those lips more perfect than angels
The work of God is sometimes stunning
I wish you knew how much you fucking meant to me
More than you could ever imagine
It's too soon for me to love you tho I'm not to far away
Don't let it frighten you, my
emotions are flawed...sometimes scarry
I talked to you today, saying so much of nothing
It was a perfect moment, I could have
stayed there forever
Let me tell you one more thing your beautiful
Your amazing,flawless,inchanting,unbelievably
nothing...I ...deserve...
