Silhouette

|

Bleed for me, oh paper
for one that is doomed.
I have pillaged your pages
with these words untrue.

Blow for me wind,
cry out my foolishness.
I have confided my thoughts
and sworn you to silence

Blind me, oh darkness
for she cannot see.
I am her compassionate ear,
it's all I ever could be.

Burn me, oh candle
for I am a fool.
For the one I cannot love-
with my heart and soul.

Epilogue

|

One last act of madness
to an uneventful day.
Steel against flesh,
will on a razor's edge.
What is your life worth
for you to pay in blood?

Undestined

|

It takes less than a blink

Leaves me no time to think

Out of my mind, its true

Very much in love with you

Every moment we spent together

Yes, Ill treasure them forever

Offered you my everything

Understand, we ain't no fling

Arrest me now, I am guilty

Voicing out the real story

Opened my heart to none but you

Now it's your turn, just love me, too.

For The Memories

|

I believe you from the day we first met

You never knew it, never really cared

It was destiny unexpected

It didn’t give time to prepare

I never thought I could love you this much

Nor will I love another this strong

I’ve given my all- body and soul

Left nothing to call my own

Love, double-crossing love

Making promises unkept

Butterfly kisses without feeling

Thinking of another, eyes a-wandering

Shall I trust you still?

Or will I follow my will

To look for the man I truly deserve

And who deserves me as well?

Shall one risk loving when it causes the greatest pain of all?

Will he continue loving when rejection comes in the end?

Will I still love you when there’s been another?

I don’t know, nor will I want to know.

Would you look at me still

When all my hairs turn gray

Or my eyes go blind

And the stars’ radiance fade?

Would you still hold my hands

When they’d be clammy and bony

Or arthritis plagues them

And renders them immobile?

Would you run your fingers

On my dry, wrinkled skin

With never a word of mockery

To ridicule my beauty’s state?

Oh, love, would you, could you

With all the love you had

From years ago, to take me

In your arms as you did

When you became my man?

To say you will is ecstasy unbound

An overwhelming joy of heart

Please tell me, love, you’ll do

Stay until my life is through.

To love you is life itself

To have not known you is death unprepared.

I would never tire of you

Because my love transcends time

Not even if the heavens burst

Not even if we both go blind.

I would hold you close forever

Closer still within my heart

We’ll always stay beside each other

No sorrow or sickness would keep us apart.

I’d love you all through life and beyond

And age shall never dull my passion

Though my tears turn to dust with the passing years

It’s you I’d still long to look upon.

I don’t want to fail you

I don’t want to be without you

Please be my strength

Please don’t give up on me.

My one true happiness

The only light of my world

My innocence and my hope

I am yours alone.

Every important thing I know, I learned because you loved me,

Without you I am lost, and tomorrow will never come.

Reel of thoughts that fade away

A fatal dirge then starts to play

Nightmares come, intent to kill

Giving up a hopeless will

Embrace the cold, her silken wings

Listen as the moonlight sings

It speaks of this, another chance

Question not the icy glance

Unburdened by the woeful task

Entombed within a silent mask.

Sifting Through Sand

|

To dreams. Well, it isn't a dream anymore if you've already achieved it, huh?


There you are-
stark naked,
basking on your spotlight
observing your effect on me.

There you are-
in torpid latency,
taking in and reflecting light,
your luster blinds.

There you are-
just withim my reach;
your will permeating;
slipping away...

Mantra

|

to jack,
this one's for you. And, although I might be rusty, I could still write.

Life's a wheel
-or so they say.
Sometimes you're up,
mostly you're down.
(wait... that's not right?! is it?)
Sometimes you win,
more likely, you'll lose...
never with any surety,
better with out expectations.
Only, the thrill of triumph,
the prospect of something better-
isn't that what drives us?
to work? to rely? to give all?
So that in the threshold of confusion
don't think outside the box,
rather, think like a box.
Edify.
"This side up!"

Yin

|

shadows on the horizon
black smoke in the distance
lies, despair, confusion
a once and final dance.

chains cutting into flesh
needles digging deep
a dose of liquid evil
insurance for the trip.

the dropped and shattered prism
reflects a rain of tears
the pieces scream with memories
a lifetime flood of fears.

a fate split asunder
a paradise torn apart
each night left with nothing
to pierce a frozen heart.

............. {on the highway to hell}

I have strummed my last discordant note.
I have hummed my last ballad.
And for all the songs I have left unsung,
tonight, my guitar shall weep.

......................................................................

Prelude

|

"...I believe I've heard this before..."

Crook for me a finger
for I am your slave.
Take me in your hand,
shackle me.

I would steal some kisses
for I am a thief.
Hold me in your embrace,
imprison me.

Burn me with passion
for I am guilty of lust.
Stay with me tonight,
torture me.

Talk to me of madness
for I am a fool.
Feed my desire,
lavish me.
