Another old tomcat is sinking
all over him is the scar of weather
and I know it’s about time
death brings him a breather.

He was never my pet
but mingled with them
to live on their crumbs’ diet
and be loved
without a name.
I put a lock on the clock
tied its hands with rope
if that made time still
halt its fast gallop!

There was an eerie silence
as lay dead the tool
with time now my slave
I could take it cool!

With there nothing to pass
I felt the burden off me
to lie back and relax
lead a life sans hurry!

For a while it seemed so nice
my time was what I liked to be
reading and writing and dreaming
walk hourless freely!

But soon boredom got me
grew a void of unease
a dead clock wasn’t that good
closed time killed my peace!

Time’s passage the timekeeper speaks
so we aren’t complacent too free
but keep the flow somewhat disciplined
by following a tool friendly!
I should converse more with my son
stop him recede wider from me
should lose no time to hold him strong
we haven’t exchanged much recently.

Our morning tea must find me a way
to draw him to talk and look at my eyes
seize I must some time every day
so I succeed after a few failed tries.

Our dinner shouldn’t pass silently dull
but spiced with jokes and diary of the day
must break laughter the hardening lull
and ensure on the table a longer stay.

I should converse more with my son
grab all the time could be together
days are shorter and crying to be gone
but the bond we leave must be worth a treasure.
I've known you all along
You're like a melody from my favorite song
I've felt you're kicks from the start
But learned how precious was you're heart
We danced and played inside the womb
I love you all the way to the moon
As years have passed and we have grown
I have my twin to call my own
I was here from the beginning
And will be until we part
My love for you remains
Just like from the very start
When you're down and feeling blue,
Turn to him and he will see you through
Trust in the Lord and you will see,
His great power will strengthen thee
There's no greater love then from above,
He will hold you and show such love
With his great touch and tender care,
Turn to him if you dare
When you feel like noone's here,
Always remember that he is near
He watches from the clouds above,
So talk to him that's what he loves
When you're down and feel so broken,
Remember he is beside you for you're his token
This life will pass and you shall part,
But with him you'll return as from the start

DC raw love
My mind is strong, still sometimes weak
Emotionally stable, yet my heart still aches

As I try to find my equilibrium
My head again is now ******* on straight

I have been ******* in love so many times
But I don't want to leave this world all alone

I don't want to ride on this wave forever
And watch these storms evaporate

With their Medusa smiles with their Judas lips
So just crucify me, as you see fit

Love bites, so I repent
And I will always be

Hell Bent

DC raw love
I took my love and took it down
Climbed a mountain and then turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills

Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my life?

I've been afraid of changing
Cause I've built my life around one
Time makes me bolder
As I am getting older

Will this landslide bring me down
