Lazarus phenomenon

For that that I would ever be so lost
And the eyes in your picture will shine
The breath in my body will still linger
And long for those days you were mine

Sometimes it is the life of its self
That cuts through your heart like a knife
And no miracles that will change the outcomes
When two lovers are caught in a strife

The candles of hope burn eternal
Breath of love that carries the drive
There are those that hope for a miracle
For its that hope that keeps us alive

DON'T ASK, DON'T TELL

What if we don't, don't even date
What if we, are not a soulmate!!
There is a world that I would create
There is a world where we could relate

What if this life could get even better
What if you, at all didn't mattter
Bodies burn, the ashes scatter
Yes I know, what you say in that letter

I have free will and not allowed to choose?
I use free will, I am allowed to lose
I reject your collar, I reject your noose
If already a loser, what I have to lose?

Open your eyes, see what you have created
In your own word, it was anticipated
Still you want this appreciated
I think not!

You know me, of what I am able
In the blink of an eye I could turn this table
I could  love you for ever
Or watch you hang from the gable

LOVE

Peer into darkness
Look into the deep
Close your eyes
Let your mind sleep

Only when subconscious
Is wide awake
You can see what's real
and what's real fake

The sun goes black
And the world goes dark
My eyes still search for that little spark
So I'll just hang around here, as a lark

MEMORIES

There are mysteries, In the mysteries
Of the mysteries, of my song
It is right, it is so right
It is so right, that it is all wrong

There are planes, In the planes
On the planes, Of my dreams
There are dreams, in my dreams
Of my dreams, It's all a dream it seems

There are reflections , in my reflections
In the reflections, on the water
Time passes, seasons change
Memories are ink on the blotter

SPELLBOUND

Spellbound

Show me again that you love me
And I'll show you that I still care
The magic hasn't been all lost to years
And that candle it is still there

I am chained by my love for you
Not feeling bounded by conventions
Just afraid to face any mirrors I am
That they may tell all my intentions

The dice were cast long before
This fate had been foretold
Sometimes what we take in as a plume of dust
Does turn into sparkling gold

It may not be in the cards at all
All we need is to love and to care
The prison of mind doesn't have any walls today
Come along now if you dare

SPELLBOUND

Spellbound

Show me again that you love me
And I'll show you that I still care
The magic hasn't been all lost to years
And that flame it is still here

I am chained by my love for you
Not feeling bounded by conventions
Just afraid to face any mirrors
That they may tell all my intentions

The dice was cast long before
This fate had been foretold
Sometimes what we take in as a plume of dust
Does turn into sparkling gold

It may not be in the cards at all
All we need is to love and to care
The prison of mind doesn't have any walls today
Come along now if you dare

MIGHTY WINGS*

A REQUIEM

"There is a raging fire in my heart tonight"
And It is burning , burning out of control
It is a fire so hot tonight
A fire that burns my soul

Its a fire so hot
That the angels wouldn't dare
Yet I stand here, stand my ground
As if "the devil may care"

No I did not promise
I couldn't save the world
Or could change the flow of the rivers
Just because I had your word

Still I fight the demons that you create
I fight your basal
I fight and make a stand
I'll fight for long as I am able

Where is my good karma then
What is this, my caprice
Where are all those gods today
That promised me inner peace

Here I go then
I curse the bridges that you walk on
Here I go then
I burn those books that you log on

I hope I will end this all
I hope it ends real soon
I'll build my castles in the sand somewhere
On the far side of the moon
