Take me away from my own mind
I cannot stand
Another second
Another instance of time
Spent sitting inside  
The same old thoughts and lines
Of mine
Of mind
Of Mine, Of Mind

My cheating heart
   Tried and rebuked
Untamed hunger
Bearing raw fruit
Bewares these eyes
That pierce through the soul
Seeking out cheaters
Somehow they know
He'll never suspect
They'll never roll
No need to fear
Just let your'self go
Only a cheater really knows

Valsa George
Winter draws closer day by day,
Autumn leaves are around my feet
From far, is heard
The screeching of a lone bird,
Voicing its dismay aloud
Over the advancing fall

Here the moss scrawls
Ugly pictures on the bark of trees
Where black spiders weave their gossamer
Moving, sig sag across the trees’ leprous trunks
I see the yellowing leaves
Torn down from their sturdy limbs
Sliding down noiselessly one by one
And landing on the ground
With a mournful sound

Acorns from the pine trees drop
And swell the ground and fall to sleep

Life too takes a downward spiral
I feel the autumn seeping into me
And my heart feels a languid grief
The days of my youth
Seem to fly away in a flurry
Like autumn leaves whirling in the gale
Reminding us, that we are not here to stay

The withered leaves
Which shriek and screech under my feet
Recall to me the cry of martyred youth
And all tenacity overthrown
Like them, we too will fall and be dead to the world
Wrapped in frozen silence, forgotten by all
And ****** back into primal void!

Warning!
Not a poem for
The squeamish!
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
"How it works"
Boundary lines are breached
Pain is arbitrarily served
Nerves placed on a torture rack
Love stretched in opposing directions
A new vocabulary of meaningless words
Punishing piercing looks of content
In a mindless separation
Needs remain unfulfilled
Fractured realities
Something to share
A second chances of lies
And somehow
Broken trust survives..

A walk through madness
That bleeds the soul
Careful
The seeds your Karma sows

I can’t take back
The love I’ve given
It’s carved in stone
Who am I kidding

You're in my brain
Fast asleep
I can escape
A love that deep

I can’t forget
I can’t move on
Hell
I can’t remain dry eyed
When I hear our song

So who the devil
Cursed my mind
I fall for you every time!
