Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
    Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
    In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come followin' you.

Though I know that evenin's empire has returned into sand,
Vanished from my hand,
Left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping.
My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet,
I have no one to meet
And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming.

    Hey, Mr.Tambourine Man, etc.

Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship,
My senses have been stripped, my hands can't feel to grip,
My toes too numb to step, wait only for my boot heels
To be wanderin'.
I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade
Into my own parade, cast your dancing spell my way,
I promise to go under it.

    Hey, Mr.Tambourine Man, etc.

Though you might hear laughin', spinnin', swingin' madly across the sun,

It's not aimed at anyone, it's just escapin' on the run
And but for the sky there are no fences facin'.
And if you hear vague traces of skippin' reels of rhyme
To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind
I wouldn't pay it any mind, it's just a shadow you're
Seeing' that he's chasing

    Hey, Mr.Tambourine Man, etc.

[Intro]

I am swirlin in this pain,
with this windy clatter, now
I'm down there, in the meadow,
Viewing all the beauties, in this world
Alone, I make my voyage
Through the dark and evil night.

[Verse]

In this catastrophic situation,
I throw all my thoughts and pain, on this paper
Through and through I read em pages,
Stalking up my life in a story,
No end to this book,
I feel my body hooked with the sight of you, 'fore my eyes,
Shinin afar like a flashlight,
The outrageous memories,
Drift me away from my sanity
Is this love not worthid?
Is my heart not flourished?
I will root down to the end of this world,
To grasp you between my *******,
And revive our love story which for now is going through tragedy.

[Chorus]

I am swirlin in this pain,
with this windy clatter, now.
I'm down there, in the meadow,
Viewing all the beauties, in the world,
Alone, I make my voyage,
Through the dark and evil night.

[Verse]

In this separate scenario, I feel my heart go up to the moon,
Unlike you, I feel sad and my heart feels gloomed,
My drivin devastation makes me wanna throw you off of the roof,
To break your bones into two and wipe off that smile,
Aggravation and hesitation, leads me to strangle you, oh so soon,
****, I need to cool my intoxication and erase the hurt off of my shoulder,
Gradual fits erupt, oh you're doomed,
My blood flows through my veins, gushin' and wellin', aloof.

[Chorus]

I am swirlin' in this pain,
with this windy clatter, now
I'm down there, in the meadow,
Viewing all the beauties, in this world
Alone, I make my voyage
Through the dark and evil night.

[Verse]

Traumatizin and tantalizin at the same time,
You make me look like i'm out there, for so long,
Visualizin our cooperation and I know its nil,
Destroyin my heart into tiny bits,
The furious flames of fire, torturous and imprudent,
Microscopic bits, my heart feels like ****,
Have you forgotten our encounter,
**** you, you scoundrel !
I'll burn up my love and spread the Ashes,
You monster, break me a thousand times and I'll make you pay,
You selfish, gutless ****,
Meet me again and I'll force you to pick, between a wip or a stick,
Brand you bad and put you in guilt.
Cause i'm sick and tired of listening to your *******,
The letters and pictures scattered on the floor,
My body feels like i'm being taken offshore,
But now i'm done and tired of this stupid love.

[Outro]

I am swirlin in this pain,
with this windy clatter, now
I'm down there, in the meadow,
Viewing all the beauties, in this world
Alone, I make my voyage
Through the dark and evil night.
My first rap song. Waiting for a singer and a tune :/
I know it's stupid laughing is allowed :p

It's cold outside but warm within,
Rose candles golden glow,
With you here right beside me -
Let winter say hello!

The fire's all cracklin',  blazin'
On the wall play love's shadows,
Contours of time a-racin'
Let winter winds bellow!

Your eyes like stars a-twinklin'
I'm lit from my head to toes,
The chords of my heart a-jinglin',
Let cold winds blusterin' blow!

Hearts alive, all hustlin'
And the music turned so low,
Whispers of sweet nothings
As winter steals the show...

A white night beaut' unfurlin',
Snowflakes dance so slow,
Twirlin' , whirlin', swirlin'
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Inspired by the song...

I can’t even think to myself anymore, without you comin’ right to my mind.
I’ve gone past the brink, into Hell – shut the door, an’ I’m wonderin’ never to find:
That ignorant bliss that I once so adored, when your sweet face had never been shown.
That brilliant abyss of my world without war an’ my ease with the ebb of its flow.

My pilot is burnin' but I am upturned now, I’m pushin’ the pressure I pull.
My stallin’ an’ swirlin’s a sight for the girl that I’m only at leisure to love.
It’s gotten to grindin’ an’ strikin’ like lightnin’, my heart is as happy as hurt.
I’m often invitin’, enticin’ a likin’, but we’re always back wastin’ words.

But like a bad dream that becomes as you seen it, I’m all but there breathin’ the air.
It’s such a long scene an’ it’s runnin’ on me an’ I’m fallin’ here rattlin’ my worth.
She’s all nature to me, the one shape of beauty, a harp an’ its pillows of string.
The everythin’ through me, her face in the room as an angel that carries a sting.

Lost in the eyes that I ache to revise, I find peace with the play of the light.
Tossed into tides about feelin’ alive, an’ of stealin’ her into the night.
But I’m at a loss, I’m at every mans end, growin’ older than anythin’ can.
She’s all that I’ve got, an’ I have to pretend that she just isn’t holdin’ his hand.

Stormin' winds that blow away the lot,
My heart drifts right and left swirlin' lone,
Your eyes full of spark and radiant hot,
Sting my soul and erupts a loud mourn,
In the depth of your eyes I drown,
Lay out and collect my yearnin' arouse,
I feel myself sinkin' deeper and down,
Because you drive me crazy in carouse,
The curves and edges of my heart,
Blood drippin' and gushin' furiously through,
The streamin' blood flows in every part,
Leavin' my frail and withered heart for you,
Pleadin' for your love and bewitchin' soul,
Fillin' up your spacious and vacant hole.
Finally wrote one :)

Yes, i understan that i need help,
But yet im still screaming from airless lungs,
Through lifeless lips,
And eyes glazed over,
And now it seems the final breath has come and gone,
Millenia has already gone since then,
Try to pick up my peices and put it together,
But still you cant seem to understand the problem.
Its not even you, its my own emotions and pain,
And thoughts and things that run past me,
So fast i cant even grasp it,
But i see the shadows of the people,
The shades of colors are swirlin around me,
Spinning faster than a haywire carrosel,
But it stops, and i fall down dizzy and sick,
Yet im surfacing with the heratics surrounding me,
But i still cant understand where they came from!
Yet still. I have it in my hands,
One hand has a pen,
One hand has a knife,
Ive already written a story with one,
And it turned out well.
Even became a part o my life.
But it has lost its savory taste, smell, and feeling.
So now lets try writing it in ink this time.
Awsaaf Ali Apr 2014
Thy rose rots, ami'st my feet an' the door,
Pleading, the fragrance its to be sucketh an' bitter wine pour,
Blisters dropp'th from thy swirlin' shore,
Boun'less pain stabbeth me more,
Thy gift'd feather, thy ink pouch, leather,
Those symphonies maketh me smile, no more,
Beneath the cores de pumping meat, I solemnly adore,
Curious stem o' rotten rose whispereth,
Thy reminiscences under my chest crawleth,
Mysterious reas'n attracteth thy death.
Stuck here in the middle
    with my thoughts swirlin' 'round me
Like a storm come to sweep me away

Too much thinking,
    I'm so tired of my own voice
Won't be quiet, ain't got nothin' to say...

...says it anyway.

Twirl

Undulate ululate

Snake hands and figure eights

chest circles and shakin’ hips

The boys wanna look

But they can’t see

The only one I’m twirlin’ and swirlin’ for

Is me
Travis Green Apr 2021
Can’t believe ***** had me straight thrilled and trippin’ on him
Wantin’ to sit on your throne and talk
Listen to your thoughts while I marvel at your art
Gaze at your hazel eyes, become magnetized
**** daddy, you’re so suave, you know you got it going on
You know you got me wantin’ to spend the night in your home
Wanna feel your delicious lips, taste ‘em like I’m eatin’ Reese’s pieces
Wanna rip your shirt, tease your neck and chest
Enmesh my poetry in the hallways of your nation
Feel your exhilaration, elevation, so much captivation
Attitude on rude, dude so on deck, flexin’ with flavor
Can you do me a favor and hold me right there?
Navigate my nerves and circle my curves
Regulate my cells and take me upstate to greatness
Penetrate my fortress with your gorgeousness
Let your love run like a river in me
Replenishin’ me, upliftin’ me, carryin’ me to spectacular galaxies

Can we hop in your ride and cruise the boulevard?
Lemme blast the radio and feel the flow
Lemme inhale your slang game, smoke blunts, and reminisce
Exchange a kiss, lay my hands on your wrist
Ooh boy, your lips got swirlin’ in Mars, dancin’ on stars
Eager to breathe in his melodies and sexiness
Street **** so love, got me ready to take a vacation
To your salacious station, interact, and smash
Got my mind out of sync, sinkin’, feelin’ weak
Admirin’ your flight, can’t think right
Look at this ***** temptin’ me, seizin’ my life
You’re so serene, yet so dangerous
You’re so masculine, everythin’ that I ***** with
You’re so tough as ****, stackin’, and packin’
Bank account flowin’ with gwop
This ****** grill is so surreal
I think I’m fallin' harder for his splendor

Appetizingly bright and satisfyin’
So spellbindin’ and inspirin’
An unconditional lover so smooth like cloth
Got my heart all clogged up with your touch
Feelin’ like I’ma erupt, can’t get enough
Daddy so slick wit’ it, so chill wit’ it, so real wit’ it
You make me hot like a sauna, like a wildfire
got me desirin’ your empire
To climb your walls of wondrous flawlessness
Leap in your streamin’ waterfalls, embracin' your nirvana
  We could **** real good, no lie, call you Papi
While you hijack my body, stuntin’ like drummer man
It ain’t a thang for me to feel your bang
Feel your pressure risin’ and harmonizin’ with mine
Hey, succulent stuff, you know you ******’ up my life
Baby, your swagger ‘causin my flesh to shudder, stutter
On sprung mode, dreamin' of soakin’ in your bath water
With your hands on me, enchantin’ my limbs

— The End —
