So there sits a boy under the shade of an old oak tree He sees the lofty clouds form shapes surreal And thinks he of the love that haunts his dreams: Oh Sun, take leave so my Moon may shine her beams.

Daydream
Anguish, The impotence of my pen. A tip once wet with joy now lay sullenly dry. Where do I start and how should I end? The buzzing bees and petals speak no joy  Of art to this heavy heart. No playful muse dances in gaiety with this pen, No holy spirit flows through the crevices Of this mind, barren, As this leaf of paper Where within, Lies not a spot of life.

For a lack of words
For we'll fade away, for sure, As sure as how today passes on, fast or slow, it passes and so, do we fade away.

We do not last
I love you God, I really do. I am sure that You would know this better than anyone else. But as I do love, so do I sin For in loving you, so do you teach my tender heart to love another Of mortal being (from dust do we descent, to dust will we descend) And in love does my weak frame yearn To be touched To be caressed For love turns (in the eye) the heavenly ****** To the hellish ***** From innocent shepherdess To the alluring temptress I tremble so when your words do I read in the Book of Truth For the final judgement will (so) soon be upon me When I will bow before You A humble servant, shamed For you breathed me into the world spotless and pure And I return tainted, impure With sins of kinds to many to implore But then do I read in the same Book of Truth, Of your love for me and all my breed. How You, The tenderest of lords do wield The rod only to yield When remorse do this lowly creature's heart fill. For your love is fair, Impartial and true So my love is fair A creation by You. And so does this fiery flame that I do feel rages on Burning me in this world and after And so I pray to you dear true One, Let me be her, and she, me In a union blessed by Your holy grace For then can I face You as a man who has loved And in returning, loved.

Loved
I met the Piper yesterday He said he’s on his way I smiled and turned to let him be He said ‘Come follow me!’ Then stared me in the eyes he did And saw the pains I hid He piped a tune so my soul does sooth A tune of longing truth.

The Piper's Tune
Believe in yourself they said, Once upon my little age. I twirled and leaped with a heart so strong, The stars for play and the sun for aim. The days were bright, While the nights were light, Once upon my little age. But now My ears are clapped with shame and guilt, The rain pours on to wrench me dry Of mind and self I have no more. “You have lost your way,” so now they said. “Believe in us, we’ll light your path, A stranger we’re not to your errant heart. Come now this way, this way,” they said. Divine by thought they are surely not, Neither by might, by heart or by warmth. But years wrinkled by toils of time. Their hissing words whip through my ears, My eyes see none, But none ahead! My heart feels none, But rage and hate. Oh how I yearn to turn this page, To Once upon my little age.

Once Upon My Little Age
I am wrong for my wrongs, guilty as charged. Guilty as a child who innocently sins. Guilty for drifting away from Your dreams. Guilty for lacking in all that You need. Guilty for being the fuel of Your grief. Guilty for the life I have forced You to lead. Guilty as charged with no room for a plead. … Maybe one day, I’ll fade out of sight. Maybe that day my wrongs will be right.

Guilty as charged
What lovely pearls you utter forth Oh wisdom flows from the fountain of you With gentle speech hypnotic and sweet Oh your voice beseech the maidens in heat Purest of virtues you are soon believed Wisest of wise you are soon bequeathed Oh beauty you are but so sweet to the eye Yet Fools art thou To dwell in the reflection of a lie

Now everybody clap with me Just clap a beat now ‘1’ ‘2’ ‘3’ Now everybody sing with me the anthem of humanity the red stained peace the apathy The fairy tale of harmony The doves are flying high not free the plastic leaders smile for us to see the knives they hide for none to see with tailor made suits and classy style they tailor made their venom lies now suffer us till end of time and now sing us this broken rhyme The Anthem of Humanity.

Anthem of Humanity
What awaits Tomorrow? I know not so. The air I breath smells of Today With little hints of Yesterday. What awaits Tomorrow? Forgive me so. A crystal ball myself does lack. The future lies in shades of black. What awaits Tomorrow? (Dear Sir) I beg you so. I say again I know not so. I pray you please beseech me not, You ask of me a trick of God.
