Darkness prevails
All too soon
It’s ritual stir
Beneath the moon

And as l walk
Across the bridge
The far off city
Starts to live

The city is a energy
That suffices my soul
The lights and traffic
Soon take control

And when the night
Does start to close
I drift on back
To my lonely home

And l lay on back
In the evening cool
And my mind
Does dwell on you
How time does fly
In its illusion
Sadly inflicted
And sometimes
Confusing

How trying at times
To acquire satisfaction
Painless solitude
Or worthwhile
Dedication

How forsaken the lonely
The broken of heart
That depressed individual
On who sorrow
Has left its mark
I know that this sorrow
Shall one day disappear
And my illusive hapiness
Will come and take over

Dispair is the true culprit
As it knaws at your soul
It's fierce determination
Makes it a formidable foe

Until you cannot envision
Just how you shall prevail
And you also do fear that
Fate has cast it's betrayel
I do know this sorrow
Will one day disappear
My illusive happiness
Will come and take over

Dispair is the true culprit
As it gnaws at your soul
It's fierce determination
Makes it a formidable foe

Until you cannot envision
How you will even prevail
And you come to fear that
fate has cast it's betrayel
You know
That I would do
Nearly anything
              for you
Climb the stars
Just one by one
Beyond a universe
               or two
And pull down
The raging sun
and pale moon
               that too
Always give you
All of my love
And all my life
                it's true
You know
That I would do
nearly any thing
                 for you
Guide my eyes
Unto your face
She’d your smile
Unto the day....

Tell the sadness
That you employ
This is your day
To cast your joy

Embrace the rays
Of the golden sun
And lift your face
To the sky above

And dwell upon
The flower field
Express the life
That you do feel
Among the ruins of my hopes
I was the constant dreamer
Wounded by your arrows
Oh timeless maiden of love

Yet your power does fail me
When ever I do give my heart
I become the constant looser
when love does seem to part

and all the invisible scars
That my heart always indures
Will leave a permanet mark
That shall never ever heal

So do not cast your arrows
Toward my heart any more
For I can't bear the sorrow
That they do have in store

Goddess of love  spare me
From your whims and cares
Take your arrow from my heart
For there is no love there
You can burn me up
with burning desire
Exactly like a runaway
herd of burning fire

Making me thankful
In my very existence
As our love became
A fiery experience

I didn't find myself
Until I found you
like a destiny that
I had to go through
I can feel you
Though you are far away
Your skin
Feels so  smooth
As I put my hand
Upon your legg

I can feel your breath
Upon my face
The air is so cool
It would be so easy
Just to embrace

I can feel you
When we are apart
Your image
Is so real....
Your so very close
To my heart
Just a Little bit of love
By the side of the way
Just a little bit of love
Someone threw away

Just a little bit of love
That nobody wants
Just lay it all down
And I'll pick it up

We feed our bodies
Lets feed our souls
And spread our Love
Where ever we go

Just Little bit of love
That nobody wants
Just lay it all down
And I will pick it up
The nites are so loney
And cold in my bed
But if you were with me
I would be warm instead

Love makes us all feel
It knaws at our senses
To many taste is sweet
To others it's bitterness

But it's sweet to kiss her
Taste full ness of her lips
But then I will miss her
After that brief stolen kiss
Love does call
Upon us all
Sheding warmth
On our souls

Love calms
Our stormy seas
And calls to
Our inner peace

Not even kings
Are free of love
For they must Have
More than us

So when love calls
Remember my words
It's not very easy
Finding one who cares
I will see the stars no more
Hung high in the nightly sky
For being without your love
Is like being without my life
For my heart beats still as stone
And my blood is cold as ice
When I am here all alone
In the darkness of the night
For world will never pause
And heed a love destroyed
And existence does become
A empty and a useless void
For world is power and money
To enslave the soul of man
And songs of war and hatred
Are all that he does understand
Morning  lent
A gentle hand
And wakening
A sleepy dawn

Spreading life
All trough out  
The land with  
It's early song

As rays of sun
From  horizon
Start to spread
Across the sky

To bring about
The new dawn
With a passing
Of dark night

my soul roams
Into a meadow
Across a silent
Running brook

Into the vortex
Of my dreams
As I lay in bed
Sound a sleep
Once when
I was young
I had gazed
Across the
Nightly sky
And I seen
Lightning
Flashing...
Across the
Stormy nite
And l heard
The thunder
Rolling cross
The dark sky
And l stood...
There in my
Wonder and
Speculation
As l beheld
Will of God
As if it been
His very face
That I  been
Lookin upon
In the ghetto street
I had made a stand
And far away from
A American dream

With no way for me
To become or actieve
All the things that I
Always hoped to be

In the ring of poverty
I punched out blindly
Only hurting nobody
But just myself only

So with no realizaion
Of all my expectations
I became so hope less
and lost in  a social hell

Unanticipated realities
Swallowed my  dreams
Spitting out the mesery
Of my painful memories
Butterfly so very high
within' the sky.....but
at one time, you were
merely.....a callipillar
just crawling... on by
and who were to say
at that time, that you
were to become a bea-
utiful flying butter fly
so high within' the sky
and flying all the way
to morocco just to die
and bringing life unto
other painted lady but-
ter flies did the Creator
inform you when you
were clinging unto the
vine or did you know
within' your heart that
some day you would fly
so high when you were
just a callipillar crawl-
ing on by
Purple darkness
Heed my soul
That does seek
Your silent wings

To  enwrap my
Weary tired soul
In the slumber
Of peaceful dreams

Glittering stars
That sparkle bright
Please do guild
My toiled sense

Golden moon
Do shed your light
Purple passion
My silent friend
An island bids
Salvation does come
Hpefully tired
You think you've won

Until you discover
The island has sunk
And once again
You have trusted love

Love will drown you
Within' it's tide
Disroy what you built
With all it's might

Initially it comes
In it's disguise
Until too late
You finally realize
And you do drown
Within' it's tide
the roar of the ocean
will always be there
even if mankind isn't
around to even care

and on my sorjoourn
for all my inner peace
I roamed the oceans
of all the restless seas

and the rippled sway
of the luminous surface
reflected the full moon
like none other place

it eased all my sadness
with all of it's mystery
and it's soothing sound
dulled all my anxieties

the waves never ceasse
they roll on endlessly
soothing my inner mind
with it's inner rhapsody
Soft
As a summer day
On the shores
Of the lake
As we wander
And sit down
On a broken down
Short pier
Away from
Civilization
And it's cares
As you whisper
Words to show
That you care
And you are soft
Around your
Shoulders
As your strapes
Hold up your halter
Strapes of cotten
And of lavender
Your hair is up
way I like it
Ur ear rings flash
In the sunset
I can smell the
fragrence on
On your neck
Soft....
As a summer day
On the shore
Of the lake
We all do experience sorrow
And all would all be wasted
If we did not tend to grow
With the problems we face

And through all the anguish
And through all of the pain
The earth does never change
It does all remain the same

and tomorrow will still come
And yesterday shall be gone
But life shall go on and on
Even when things go wrong

And paths that we will take
Will still have all of it's thorns
But the roses that it does have
That will become our reward
This moon I do see tonight
Who else has seen this sight
This pale moon I see tonight

Perhaps Helen of Troy
Had seen this very sight
As she looked into the  sky

And she held Paris in her arms
And  looked into the sky
And had seen this very sight
The pale moon I do see tonight

Or perhaps Juliet's anxious eyes
Had seen this very sight
Waiting for Romeo to emerge
From the distant tree line

Did Jane Austin see this sight
The pale moon that I see tonight
Inspiring her as she gazed into the sky
To write pride and prejudice during
The romantic poets era's time

Or maybe Mary Shelly's vision
Did look into the dark cloudy sky
And had found the inspiration
To write her novel Frankenstein
when she had  seen this very sight
This pale moon that I see tonight
Life itself can be demanding
Yet time has it's advantage
Being here with you neath
The stars and dark deavens

You fill my soul and satisfy
My heart making our love
Stronger when we're apart
Timeless love to quell the

Storm drink the crispness
Of the morn to make love
Stronger when were apart
Timeless love in my heart
Dawn did tell me
It’s deepest secret
As the morning
Did put it to rest

And the morning
Came to seek
What it was
Dawn had said

But I was stranded
And frozen in time
As the afternoon
Left morning behind
However humble
Shall love come
It might also seek
To hurt some one

As apathy or pain
can also descend
To make a enemy
From ones friend

There are no bonds
In our love so deep
As it must also flow
So sure and so free

There are no locks
On true love's door
It is not just a duty
Or personal reward

And do not strive
And make a deal
Can't even explain
The way that u feel
Alarm goes off
And I get up
Make my Coffee
And pour a cup

Just like yesterday
Just like Tomorrow
Same thing everyday
With pain and sorrow

Until I get laid off
Or until I get fired
And if I am lucky
I'll slave 'til I retire

Every one has a dream
We all set our goals
I'll tell you what mine is
Just putting food on the table

— The End —
