How I Love You
I know you love it, I can feel your vibe. you don't just see me, you see my other side. I saw you looking; how you stared for a while, noticing you smiling, when I caught you, for the second time. must of been those stunning eyes or that curious smile, you caught my eye Wanted you closer as the seconds went by instead of just flirting, I wanted to be by your side. eyes feeling on each - locked out the world left each other stuck inside. I saw you notice me, and I noticed for a while. As I looked on, I noticed your style. And now I'm feeling you, lovin your vibe. noticed your eyes feeling, watching me move like a movie --- we should roll, and chill then take a ride Close your eyes, and let me climbs inside. Touch your soul, while I ease your mind, rock your body, sooth it with mine. giving you the real me, until you are addicted to that natural high. Don't rush a think, lets just take our time. Relax, baby just enjoy the ride. Coming into my world, while I dip inside. give me the best of you like its already mine. Introduce your Highness to her new shrine.

Trance
They’ll check your wrists, But not your thighs, They’ll check your smile, But not your eyes They’ll avoid the truth, Believe the lies, Nothing to sooth, No reason to cry, Our smiles are bright, Eyes are a bit dull, Wrists are clean despite, The blade with an emotional pull, And we’re emotionally unstable, But they say that’s okay, We are all a bit of a riddle, But that’s the only thing we can convey, And the world will open to swallow us up, But that’s okay, at least our habits remain, And when their arms finally open up, We will show them the reflection they taught us to shame, So we paint a smile with the color of red, From the thighs they didn’t check, And from our eyes we bled. And they'll only understand, When the noose hold us by our necks, And if they had thought twice, Maybe our eyes they would have checked.

Habits
I’m sick of hearing my life’s a haiku. I’m into magic, love, and other sorts of things that are typically voodoo. I’m half ***** from a half assed absent African baby boomer brat. I’m half white trash. Here’s a well formed of dried tears turned into something to sooth my canine teeth. It tastes like Moonshine. I can’t swim anymore, so I’m here drowning in a concrete pool. Always, I look for the hell in you. I sharpen my boot knife for ****** assault protection. The first swipes for the plus 200,000 in counting. The seconds for the 66 percent underreported. The lasts for me, the 29 percent victims aged 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, and 12. We have a higher rate of risking everything. For depression x3. For committing suicide x4. For post traumatic stress disorder x6. For alcohol abuse x13. For drug abuse x26. You all think I’m crazy, I’m not. I sometimes get called stupid, ugly, ***** and thot. I’m in pain, in sorrow. I can’t help it. He did it. No one can undo it. What do we do about it? I wont scream, I won't cry. I’ll ask how he’s doing with glitter and tears in the corner of my eye. And after he's done molesting me, "Want to go grab some coffee or tea?" Personally, I like the cafe down the street. They sell good brunch with amazing croissants. And after this is over, I’d ask him how it was while he turned me over.

//Modest Proposal
She is A Queen She's something special, similar to a candy coated dream. The God in her will sooth you soul as if you were Listening To the sound of the rushing river Streams Her spirit Shines brighter than a car's high Beams. Her love is sweeter than brown sugar And Me oh my she is Looker Her big chestnut sultry eyes reveals the beauty of Her soul inside. I can just smell the aroma of her Shea butter and coconut fragranced skin as it glows due to her internal flame shinning within. Cocoa Brown is the color of her melanated Bronze complexion. Man, her smile drives me wild. That luminous smile, her glorious smile, is as gorgeous as the clouds when she shows her pearly whites. It brightens my day like a lamp in the darkness of the night. And her mind Is a secret treasure That only her King Can discover and uncover the bountiful mountains he'll climb. She's Artistic and Musically Inclined And at the drop of a dime shell bust out in A poetic rhyme And her words, Gosh her blissfully profoundly spoken words, will send chills up your spine She's My own little personal ray of sunshine Radiating truth and her words are so kind She's simply divine She's a peacemaker staying serene From the inside out she is a beautiful Human being She's good for your mental hygiene Kinda like how your body needs protein. Royalty is embedded in DNA gene And her crown is made of lustrous flowing locks shining like oil sheen. She is Royalty, She's My sister from another Mister, She is an Unshaken, Strong, melanized Beautiful Queen.

lets not play by the rules. it just me against you. doing what bodies do. then holding it against you. Again, late afternoon, doing what we do, moving the way you move, can't take my eyes off of you. the only thing I want more than you, is both of us in the **** music on, setting the mood licking your lips like finger food. skin so smooth your aches; I'll sooth

Finger food
His trim and beautiful body laid out on the floor, Chest rising and falling, She watches silently from the door, The voices are calling. Whispers in her ears, Eyes glazed in a trance, He could allay her fears, with an immodest dance. Her ***** are burning, Pain would sooth her yearning.

Collared Boy
Swept into a space too small to hold me. His eyes put me there at first glance. The containment welcome as I had to catch my breath. Mesmerized by the shape of his features! Oh what a beautiful man he is. Everything about him screams alive. Swept into his land of him and the pleasure he gives. Held close by his attention and sweet words. His allure carefully crafted with his heartless soul. Mesmerized by his amazing mouth and touch. Oh what a beautiful man he is. Everything about him screams desire. Swept into his land of lies and deception. Confusion is abound as I hit the ground. No longer blind to his games and fake love. Mesmerized by my inability to make truth real. Oh what a beautiful man he is. Everything about him screams need. Swept into his land of pain and sorrow. Reality is so hard to maintain in my mind. His web woven in captivating moments. Mesmerized by the memories of us in love. Oh what a beautiful man he is. Everything about him screams mine. Swept into his land of closure. My feelings slowly matching the reality I despise. The need for him fills every inch of me. Mesmerized by how weak I've become. Oh what a beautiful man he is. Everything about him screams player. Swept into his land of done. He won't give any part of him to sooth me. Nothing he has is for me as he is over it. Mesmerized by my lack of composure. Oh what a beautiful man he is. Everything about him screams deception. Swept into my land of reality. He is gone and I am so alone. Cut off from the ability to find new love. Mesmerized by my denial of his lack. Oh what a beautiful man he is. Everything about him screams ouch. Becky Jo Gibson 2-26-16

Features, my reflection— subtle hints stare back offering wordless reply, their evidence a betrayal of age. A wrinkle looking deeper, mane of face, of head—hairs fresh lacking pigment. Vain attempts made to mend heart, to sooth soul's dread. Testimony of experience of wisdom, persistence, perception, an impotent contraceptive, the argument aberrant. Regret to cloud memory, my youth seeming a flesh and blood cliche. Tiny footnotes heavy with prose, words in bold to distract mind's eye—a demand of attention. Edging out tomb's more beautiful weight of love and heartache of passion's attempt failing, to try again, sinking before succeeding. An era's dusk and dawn anew, life's advent unpredictable—without cause changing. Notion hanging lingering, poisoning future, the venom of defeat an insidious invasion. This new age creeping toward night in this stage my life's sun less bright. Maturity's introduced responsibility, some enjoyable while others to own hostility. A brigand mugging freedom—time for leisure. Spurring combat for what remains of youth, fingers wrapping air in futile seizure. The inevitable to command subservience, presuming ownership of life, though the mature demonstrate the defiance of the immature. Objects, activities, music assaulting ear, their manner, symbols of strict adherence to who once was— a spiteful surrender refusal. A piece of me defining me until no more, years holding power—threatening to change who I am at very core. Canvas construction the colour of murre, rubber toe caps the shade of pure. Design worn since youth, dead and resurrected; a million mile shoe of valorous resistance—insurrection, a Converse rebellion. In torment of age's scars, I'll never be too old to wear my All Stars.

__Body__ Let me love and care for the art piece of your body- every pulsating touch of your spasms. Jumping wildly; while washing me in your spring water on top a mountain of passions. I’ll spurt within you, from its tip. And in kind; let the wetness of your lips sooth my skin. Kissed by your sensual soul, as it echoes every word of thirst, running down your throat; chasing after every breath we lose in a moment.                        _Still, let us not love in haste._ __Amazon Queen__ I gaze at you, as my sprouting rose in bloom. But not something so delicate; she is tall, shapely, and sturdy— my Amazon Queen that keeps me in the centre of her rainforest. As she lets my words water her floret by their tip- its warmth and gentleness spoke of a love so deep and fulfilling. __Foot fetish__ Oh, how she stimulates my eyes, as I make out with her eye’s persuasion; my mind often rehearses how I’ll love her in it’s imaginations- my mind’s perfect simulation; For our desires are much sweeter, by every bite of her smooth chocolate skin I adore her more than I would have yesterday- to quietly bless each step she’ll take tomorrow. And a reason for me to kiss her feet. __Moist__ Surely as the night is washed by the gentle rains- I have these saturated thoughts, pondering how she’ll drown me over another night’ As she could never have the most without I in the middle; her underwear feels so moist. __Climactic Prelude & Conclusion__ Would you love to experience a climactic prelude; a middle so sweet in its time; While my eyes ripen at the sight of your ripening fruit, Oh, so sweet in its time, let me capture and savour that juicy fruit, For yes indeed we had fallen in love- but let not that fruit eventually fall; From its tree, to rot off its vine; let me bite you as mine- to taste your heaven’s ecstasy; In this climactic prelude; I promise the middle is filling, and its conclusion won’t be short lived.

I belong To the roses blooming with elegance, The birds song yearning for love, The spring singing the song of life, The dawn declaring a new beginning, The moon shining on lovers’ footsteps. I Belong To the cry of the suffering souls, The dish that feeds the hungry stomaches, The sacred justice that was crucified, The whispers of my mother’s prayer. I Belong, To the kind words that sooth other’s pains, The random acts of kindness, The hearts that are full of compassion, The idea that plant seeds for positive change, I Belong, To the hope of all of humanity, The inventor of all of the infinite beauty, The beautiful song of all of creation, The God of the whole universe.

I Belong
Puissant piquant and predatory And observant from afar He looks down on your slumber Like a door that's left ajar Plying with his manly vice A reckless male visage A rogue of masculine device Seeks entrance to your mind He saunters with a swagger A macho savvy moxie To personify virility's incarnate His dream zone's metier He sifts your ****** entourage In search of sprawls recumbence To tantalize climactic fervor With lambent photic scenes Grasping at your revelries He spies the wanton lust With swanky strut appealing Your primal urge to sate He leaves undone resistance With innate resilience seized The lavish wayward implications Of unrequited livid deeds Like passion's lurid lecheries An insatiable torrid sooth You wrestle with his adamance Your  carnal ecstasies revealed You pounce on his exsertion You splay your agile form wriggling like a supple nymph You accept his blatant storm You writhe in your abandon In a euphoric supplication His machismo ****** enveloping Your wildest latent needs With no regrets or reticence you awaken from this dream To find yourself alone again Like it had never been

The purest sense of understanding that allows two hearts to move beyond the borders of the conscious, thinking mind. Without the thoughts that twist the words, that distort perception; what is conveyed, is... is... unconditional acceptance and love. In this simple concept we find solace, we find connection, we reach the precipice of and stare in awe at the beauty of the humane soul. Everything seems perfect.   By this perfection, given face value, we draw the ever permanent distinction between what what is black and what is white; what is wrong and what is right; what is virtue and what is moral travesty. For inherent to humanity is the eagerness, bias  and extremity with which we represent the good and evil of this world. For who would believe that the "caretaker", wrought of good intentions, could be soiled in his actions?   The caretaker that empathizes with the troubled or broken soul is a testament to the honesty of a human heart; but he who enables others with his empathy becomes not the caretaker, but the "jailer". Through his conviction to ALWAYS be there, to sooth the hurts, to understand the pains and to maintain control... by those actions, he belittles them. The relief of empathy is only temporary. Empathy does not enact change, it is mere salve and bandage, it quells the aches for but a moment. And when they return, in their woes, the service of the empathizer becomes requirement.   For though empathy may be needed, with the power to forge a bond of deep understanding, its indiscriminate use only stunts. Personal growth, it is found by many paths in this world. We must grow and mature; let others do the same. Life is a journey with many opportunities but also many hardships, we are defined by these. If we are stunted by the empathy of others, in their quest to protect us, we will never grow, never achieve that which is greater, and never leave our "prison".   Virtue or vice... once again in the hands of the beholder.

This cave is my sanctuary; cold, damp, filled with minerals and creatures. I sit cross legged peering out through the crescent shaped doorway mama nature has created. I have never been more at peace than I am when I’m here. The water crashes hard on the barnacle covered rocks beneath me. The mist from the waves whirls its way up to sooth my aching skin. The sea calls my name in the way that an angel calls you into the light. At first it’s just a delicate whisper. The voice is so charming and playful that it begins to lure me in. As i begin to drift further, letting the voice carry my thoughts, the waves pound harder and the symphony the sea has written me rapidly grows in volume and intensity. The tension becomes so strong that the sky starts to erupt. The clash of the clouds creates a prismatic light sequence leaving the sky looking magnificently iridescent. I sit unstirred, reveling in it's beauty. The sea is now agonizingly screaming for me to succumb to its cool paradise. For a while I just sit and enjoy the elegance of the symphony. Once the sky starts to lower its darkened veil, I know it is time to go. I stand up with more certainty than I had ever felt before. I slowly take three steps forward, embracing the feeling of the dirt in between my toes. Two long strides, and then I leap. The thick foggy air caresses my body as it swiftly careens downward. The symphony ends with a splash.

Seaside Symphony
MESSENGER Now at the Seventh Gate the seventh chief, Thy proper mother's son, I will announce, What fortune for this city, for himself, With curses he invoketh:--on the walls Ascending, heralded as king, to stand, With paeans for their capture; then with thee To fight, and either slaying near thee die, Or thee, who wronged him, chasing forth alive, Requite in kind his proper banishment. Such words he shouts, and calls upon the gods Who o'er his race preside and Fatherland, With gracious eye to look upon his prayers. A well-wrought buckler, newly forged, he bears, With twofold blazon riveted thereon, For there a woman leads, with sober mien, A mailed warrior, enchased in gold; Justice her style, and thus the legend speaks:-- 'This man I will restore, and he shall hold The city and his father's palace homes.' Such the devices of the hostile chiefs. 'Tis for thyself to choose whom thou wilt send; But never shalt thou blame my herald-words. To guide the rudder of the State be thine! ETEOCLES O heaven-demented race of Oedipus, My race, tear-fraught, detested of the gods! Alas, our father's curses now bear fruit. But it beseems not to lament or weep, Lest lamentations sadder still be born. For him, too truly Polyneikes named,-- What his device will work we soon shall know; Whether his braggart words, with madness fraught, Gold-blazoned on his shield, shall lead him back. Hath Justice communed with, or claimed him hers, Guided his deeds and thoughts, this might have been; But neither when he fled the darksome womb, Or in his childhood, or in youth's fair prime, Or when the hair thick gathered on his chin, Hath Justice communed with, or claimed him hers, Nor in this outrage on his Fatherland Deem I she now beside him deigns to stand. For Justice would in sooth belie her name, Did she with this all-daring man consort. In these regards confiding will I go, Myself will meet him. Who with better right? Brother to brother, chieftain against chief, Foeman to foe, I'll stand. Quick, bring my spear, My greaves, and armor, bulwark against stones.

I wake up every morning To nothing I am alone I only see to where my light reaches I see nothing except my drum I grab the drum And play the same beat I played yesterday And the day before What was an energetic beat Changed to melancholic Yearning for someone else I hope someone would hear it And just sit with me Sooth my loneliness I go back to sleep again. We wake up every morning To nothing We are many We only see to where our light reaches We see nothing except each other We hear the sound of the drums Play the same tone As yesterday And the day before What was a beat that energized us Made us melancholic Many set out To find the sound But none have returned Demons roamed the darkness We eventually gave up.

Two Lights and a Drum
ARTERY CONFESSION. _Her love to me is like moon light, on a starry night._ As rising sun at dhawn. Like vine planted on his heart's yard. _which he ought to water to flowery_ _And fruitage._ his love for her is as deep as the dept of an ocean, _with the fishes abiding therein,_ _as stars, moon,_ and the sun adhered to the sky, it never departed away from her side. _his love to her can simply easily be compared to_ _GOD's towards mankind._ So he confessed and rendered his heart to her. _Like a teeming downpour upon earthen soften, it surface._ so her love compassed his heart comforting, _like pabulum to mind._ As light rays to eye sight. His love for her is reality only can be told in tale of their love story, _gory to glory._ _He so_ Much love her and really ready, _in for her, fell in the water._ Lost and found with her for ever. _He wish he could wash her feet wilt the waters of his soul, cleansing her heart._ because he see her heart compatible to his. _Remembered old days of midnight calls, they never used to give sleep to their eyes._ While talk through night, dusk till dawn, _Remembered promises and all the pain they both had gone through heaven and hell._ *Never forgot the only first day he felt the fullness of her ******* _how sooth her heart. Tongue on tongue, mouthy pleasure._ His hands on her curves. Briskly remembered she _told him that after her_ momma he be next to her. _She call him dad he call her Mami._ Before she demised his mama used to asked about his lady. His homies do too. _His young blood can't either forget her memories,_ last night he was asked about her, oh sweetness _is all about thee._ _Can't forget_ her, _he always craves_ her. All he ever wanted and desires are all found in her, his boo. _He truly loves her because he knew she'd make a good mother,_ Hope she'd understand if he change sometimes just only because he never own everythang as his. _So remember he always told her_ that he will always be there for her as time, _even in the world after here._ _Her love is so good to him_ She has the key to his heart. _reminisce she told him she'd_ _rather die for him than sleeping at someone else side._ She's his inspiration like a transportation, his motivation only she can help build his cloud nation. _His aspiration_ all is found in her, _all in ONE no one else but she._ She source the past time joy and still the reason _for today's and the hope_ of tomorrow's glee. Sacrifice his love for her because he believes in future with her, she's his destiny his fate mate his ruth, his batsheba, _His mary, his eve and soulmate._ #c9_fm

Hail, happy day, when, smiling like the morn, Fair Freedom rose New-England to adorn: The northern clime beneath her genial ray, Dartmouth, congratulates thy blissful sway: Elate with hope her race no longer mourns, Each soul expands, each grateful ***** burns, While in thine hand with pleasure we behold The silken reins, and Freedom’s charms unfold. Long lost to realms beneath the northern skies She shines supreme, while hated faction dies: Soon as appear’d the Goddess long desir’d, Sick at the view, she languish’d and expir’d; Thus from the splendors of the morning light The owl in sadness seeks the caves of night. No more, America, in mournful strain Of wrongs, and grievance unredress’d complain, No longer shalt thou dread the iron chain, Which wanton Tyranny with lawless hand Had made, and with it meant t’ enslave the land. Should you, my lord, while you peruse my song, Wonder from whence my love of Freedom sprung, Whence flow these wishes for the common good, By feeling hearts alone best understood, I, young in life, by seeming cruel fate Was snatch’d from Afric’s fancy’d happy seat: What pangs excruciating must ****** What sorrows labour in my parent’s breast? Steel’d was that soul and by no misery mov’d That from a father seiz’d his babe belov’d: Such, such my case. And can I then but pray Others may never feel tyrannic sway? For favours past, great Sir, our thanks are due, And thee we ask thy favours to renew, Since in thy pow’r, as in thy will before, To sooth the griefs, which thou did’st once deplore. May heav’nly grace the sacred sanction give To all thy works, and thou for ever live Not only on the wings of fleeting Fame, Though praise immortal crowns the patriot’s name, But to conduct to heav’ns refulgent fane, May fiery coursers sweep th’ ethereal plain, And bear thee upwards to that blest abode, Where, like the prophet, thou shalt find thy God.

coffee in the night wakes me for the evening, sipping as I listen to cool tunes from the lady strummer sooth, oh the taste of a nice fresh brew, potent and dark, the caffeine streams through blood to the brain, nice quick buzzbuzzbee in my head. reprieve from the shop to the abode no one knows, down the road curved heavy I strode and sank deep into muses sweet song, echo ear to ear soul soothsayer, calm coffee nerves, trade lines of rhyme in a compact black notebook of wonders belonging none other to d-bake, spirit of the sun, wandering peace beast with worthy words and steady grooves. come midnight go and its time to depart. come home to dark demons seeping 'round corridors and corners, peeking for a sight of frightened prey to pounce on invisibly, startled through and through, spooks steering to insanity, must seek shelter **** covers with sleepytime tea. long discussions over late telephone, with lady of dreams come true, of one consciousness such that no puzzle piece stands apart and one love binds the confines of it all , mind shatteringly simple yet most don’t seem to see the beauty of all infinitely one.

Meet me at the Coffeeshop
You look so beautiful in this light, the stars bring out your eyes. You look so wonderful tonight, let the moon heal those past lies. If I could write a story about you, babe It would be the best of kind. A princess who needs one simple kiss, to realize what true love feels like. Let the melody of my piano sooth you and my voice help clear your mind Let our love become eternal like this flame As our two hearts forever intertwine. I would chase you for a thousand years No woman like this can be found again You are the love that completes my soul You are my best friend. Cry on me when life grows tough Hold my hand to never feel alone, Hold on to me when your heart has grown tired & given up I promise to carry you home. Finding love isn't easy But we cross our fingers for luck Breaking free from our past maybe hard But that one person can release our hearts when they're stuck Give a chance to embrace all it brings and allow yourself to love God send me an angel who can heal my broken heart and show me the meaning of true love.

The idea of "true love"
Your head upon my ***** I will gently sooth and touch, chase your fears and darkness and lull you to a hush.

TRUSTING
The Riot Began on a Sunday Evening My dearest kin, how deceiving shout, scream, taunt Shout. Scream. Taunt. SHOUT! SCREAM! TAUNT! Ablaze with yells Bank money, In-laws from hell Little draw-backs, taxes of life It kills them, it murders every night. It grew and grew Drizzle to Hurricane Dazed, bruised embrace I, myself, a teenage girl of sixteen, I remained curled in the comforter, cotton was my security. Laying down by the side of shadow I whimper and wonder My tiny boy, my tiny love, He remains as lonely as I The bedroom is far from escape I may be used to walking the desert alone But my little love, he remains unknown. And for that first night, millionth life, I rise. My movement ripples nothing But my conscience gaping Death mission death mission death mission I refuse to sink. Pitter patter against the stony floor My footsteps whisper, but they do not stir. My dearest kin, how deceiving... I slip into his life, desiring to sooth his mind "My love, my love," I coo. He responds without further ado. "Geetika?" I desire a cry when I hear this soft, soft, kitten-like My boy, my boy, my boy. I prepare to face PTSD But all I face is a dream within a nightmare. "Did you know I got thousand points on fruit ninja this evening?" I blink. And blink. He hasn't noticed a single thing! They say his specialty is his curse But I am thanful, Because he has not heard! My boy, my boy! He remains oblivious My dreamer, my dreamer! Out of touch of reality, My little baby. Numbers and points and games engulf his mind So consumed So unaware But I AM SO THANKFUL! He hadn't noticed a single thing, my boy my boy, my dreamer...

ON SEEING ONE ON A LADY’S BONNET AT CHURCH Ha! whare ye gaun, ye crowlin ferlie! Your impudence protects you sairly: I canna say but ye strunt rarely Owre gauze and lace; Tho’ faith, I fear ye dine but sparely On sic a place. Ye ugly, creepin, blastit wonner, Detested, shunned by saunt an’ sinner, How daur ye set your fit upon her, Sae fine a lady! *** somewhere else and seek your dinner, On some poor body. Swith, in some beggar’s haffet squattle; There ye may creep, and sprawl, and sprattle Wi’ ither kindred, jumpin cattle, In shoals and nations; Whare horn or bane ne’er daur unsettle Your thick plantations. Now haud ye there, ye’re out o’ sight, Below the fatt’rels, snug an’ tight; Na faith ye yet! ye’ll no be right Till ye’ve got on it, The vera tapmost, towering height O’ Miss’s bonnet. My sooth! right bauld ye set your nose out, As plump an’ grey as onie grozet: O for some rank, mercurial rozet, Or fell, red smeddum, I’d gie ye sic a hearty dose o’t, *** dress your droddum! I *** na been surprised to spy You on an auld wife’s flainen toy; Or aiblins some bit duddie boy, On’s wyliecoat; But Miss’s fine Lunardi!—fie! How daur ye do’t? O Jenny, dinna toss your head, An’ set your beauties a’ abread! Ye little ken what cursed speed The blastie’s makin! Thae winks and finger-ends, I dread, Are notice takin! O, *** some Power the giftie gie us To see oursels as others see us! It *** frae monie a blunder free us An’ foolish notion: What airs in dress an’ gait *** lea’e us, And ev’n Devotion!

I would take your pain away, Even If it took my breath away.... There is nothing I wouldn’t do If I could only set you free.... When I look into your eyes, I see sadness deeply hidden. Fear, desire, and passions, The things that this experience have given you....   I want to fill your heart with peace, And see the joy in your face. Through the sorrows and the pain I would gladly take your place... I'd wipe the tears from your cheeks Before they ever reach you'r lips... I’d sooth your weary mind And heal your broken heart... All the troubles that you’ve obtained Would be forgotten with the past... Your future would be bright And your eyes well be open and you well see how life is worth a wild... I have this plan to take your pain away.. It really isn’t difficult.. I’ll just love you every day like I always wanted to do....
