I Am
I am the bird that soars
With broken wings or strengthened drive
The wind that blows with power
The sun that stills the life
I bleed I love I hate
I fool my inner being
To carry out the wishes
That all depend on
Crowded are my veins
That flow with more than blood
I feed the mind with data
Sometimes deprived
Shake me or don't
Wake me or let me sleep
What is pain if not hurt
Deafen the music
I eat drink and have been addicted
Only my senses breathe
Shoot the masters of twilight
For they have no souls
Swan Song
His eyes dim the light begins to fade
The memories are like reruns of his life
They gather in silence with tears of sorrow
He begs for forgiveness from all
In utter breath of lifeless words
Draw the curtains he asks
The world is of beauty for those who live
Darkness eases the pain
I leave not willingly but with courage
To stand in His presence
My fears make me tremble
My faith guides my way
Only yesterday the scent of sweetness filled me
Today the colors scorn my vision
I have kissed her textured grace
She was more than my life
Perhaps she waits in white linens
To hold my hand once more
Life will begin anew somewhere in time
I have loved her forevermore
Her voice sings to me
I leave not of illness but without heart

I love Life Because of You Everyday
Perry Mason in the background
My heart is on fire
Making love through my computer
Thinking of you in my blackness
I love life and all it has to give
Rainy days kissing your lips
Hearing your voice I can't pretend
I love life because of you everyday
You have me smiling smiling again
For many years I was on the wrong train
Touching you makes me crazy insane
I love life because of you everyday
How childish are these words
I overflow like never before
The moments in my head are like fountains
I feast on your beauty yes
O why should it be
I love life because of you everyday
See the trees see the cars
The day is clear
My mind is open fresh is the air
Today I feel no pain
Tomorrow is so far away
I love life because of you everyday
I Will Fly Away
Breathless my oars weigh upon me
Rushing to gates of your splendor
You are the arcane mistress
An instrument I long to play
Impaled by your innate beauty
I turn to run from myself
Away from your inner presence
Naive and naked my face is read
Unmanned through it's journey
Sedate with anxious frail
I kiss la terra rubbing my body with sin
Holding the memory of your sonata
Seduce my hanging ego
Engulf my reasons without a breath
Should I stand tall and look down to you
Or swirl in movement of joy
Gripping your power against my flesh
Say what thoughts you hold
I am wise not ruled by my vanity
Unwilling to surrender my obsession
If you are abstract I will fly away
|
You
I want to cradle you in my spirit
Draw your effeminate close to my chest
Enwrap your soul with mine
Fearlessly move time to rest without frigid gloom
We hide from our conversancy
Strike at the dragons if they wander in our paths
Obsess by our needs for each other
And yet serve the day in its vacant despair
I hold you in my thoughts
I drink you in from my carafe
I lose you to be free and love
How can I offer you this oral caress without care
What harmony would be found in darkness
Are you responsive to save me
Or is the precious jewel within your heart
A stone without character
Hold me and feel my weakness
You
Garden Of Color
Longing to embrace you
Winter is cold my heart is warm
Lost is time without love that breathes
Moments become hours
Sadness makes me weak
Touching the cooling breeze
Pretending it is you
My bed is calling your feel
Whispering in my dreams
I rise with no meaning
To a day of uncertainty
The plants smile with me
In gardens of color
Slowly I move
You are there to hold
I Live Again
Tempered the seasons pass colors fade
Hearts grow apart in circles of indecisive love
How do I hold that is burning cold
Benumbed by the images of emptiness
Chariots of ghosts parade with grey faces
Have I died an unknowing touch
Scattered in bouquets of black roses
Voices of the Angels pure the air
I have returned to the moments of dignity
Time follows footprints of the bourne ages
Kiss my lips do they weep no
Give me the forever you denied me
Sleep by my body warm the truth
Go when you must if you must
Ask and I wait through my tears
Protect the machines of your soul
Fly not without wings
I have lived I have loved I live again
