TRUTH & LOVE DOES IT EXIST

My heart breaks
My eyes shed tears
My lips quiver with all my fears.

You told me lies
I did not know
I thought you were
my friend not my foe.

I gave you my heart
on a silver platter
and did not hear the
roar, the laughter

Truth and Love
does it exist
I can not answer
I can only wish.

Life

There he stood, in the rain,
fighting the sorrow and the pain.
There he stood, all alone,
after being rejected on the phone.

He pulled on the trigger, made up his mind,
that there was no love that he could find.
All of the sudden, the rain had stopped,
turning into snow, as it dropped.

The road before him, which was wet and slimy,
turned white, bright and shiny.
He put away the gun, and he walked proudly on,
trying his best, to be brave and strong.
He looks on to the endless road,
and threw away the gun, which he had hold.
As it proves that the best thing is love,
That can only be found in real life.

MEDICINE FOR A BROKEN HEART

When I meet him, my heart was whole
When I lost him, I was in pieces.
When a heart is broken it cannot be put back in place
It is like a puzzle, it cannot be undone.

It has been like that for decades,
But I proved reality wrong.
Because my heart was broken into pieces
But not anymore, it is again whole

Do you want to know how I did it,
I got some medicine
It colored my colorless world
And made my life a brighter place.

I AM NOT HAPPY

My heart cries for a sign
I plead for just a sign
Talking with my ignorance
on the other line

Summoning the strength
to survive to the next day
I look for a light
to show me the way

I starve for pity
in unusual way
Hoping someone will hear
about all my sad days

A pair of arms
I am in dire need
To keep my soul warm
As I away my own greed

SEARCH FOR LOVE

Thinking of you,
Melting for your love,
Crying for your care;
Weeping for your words,
Searching for your smiles!

And you have created
An atmosphere of spring
And I can find
Flowers blooming forth around me!!

LOVE

Your soul whispers softly around me
My heart is drenched in loves wine
Your eyes read me gently, like a man blind
Reading Braille, slowly picking up every word that flutters in my mind.

I am like a bee coated in the nectar or your love,
Your senses flow across the room towards me
like a leaf floating through the air, toyed by the wind,
like the peaceful ebb and flow of the sea,
I am comforted by your presence.

Reach for the heavens

Reach for the heavens
and catch hold of a star.
Be true to yourself
And know who you are.

Go your own way
Do not follow the crowd.
Hold your head high
Stand tall and be proud.

Fight for your rights
and believe in your dreams
Because nothing in life
is exactly what it seems.

Some people will tell you
what is false and what is true
but only you know what is best for you
So decide for yourself and stand by your choice

CHOOSE

Choose to love- rather than hate
Choose to smile- rather than frown
Choose to build- rather than destroy
Choose to persevere- rather than quit
Choose to heal- rather than wound
Choose to give- rather than grasp
Choose to act- rather than curse
Choose to pray- rather than despair

I SIT ALONE, INSIDE MY HEAD,

Thoughts float around, my world is dead,
The time is now, the time is then,
Back when you are holding me again,
Sleep nor rest can sooth this pain.

Friend nor stranger is able to tame,
The easy way out might be to dream and hope
Stars, moon, and sun, eternally shine,
unlike you being mine.

Love so pure, does it exist?
Find that shadow in the mist,
only time is able to tell,
Mysteries of heaven and of hell.

Peace, war, love and heart ache,
Unbearable hate, horrible fate,
Hugs and kisses, wounds and scars,
Cant take it back, love is far.

Most faced with everything,
few faced with nothing,
Some faced with undying suffering,
Water, fire and all the elements of living

Anger and sorrow,
Can wait till tomorrow,
Questions and answers, go untold,
Everyone wants, some one else to hold

ANGELS OF WAR

Not knowing the day that you will return.
Knowing only, our hearts are in yearning.
Your wings of gentleness will guide our flight.
Your thoughts to us, warms us this night.
Your loving heart will strengthen our day.
We really love you in every little way.
Thank you, you are our Angels.

ANOTHER CHANCE

I wonder how it would be like
To have another chance
A time for true Happiness
A Time for romance

A time to bring things up
That was never said before
A Time I wanted you to forgive me
And love me even more

A Time I wanted to believe
that I'm the one you miss
What I would do to turn back time
And to have another kiss!!!!

HARD TIMES

Going though the hard times
Knocking down the walls
Trying to find the easy way out
But I see nothing at all

Going though an open path
That leads to a space
Trying to leave my past behind
Trying to fix my mistakes!!!

FOREVER

In a cloud that seemed to go on forever
They ran away but escaped it never

The light of the sun that once shined so bright
So quickly was replaced with destruction and fright

Lives of the young so eager to learn
Can only be mourned as we watch the buildings burn

Wisdom of the elderly that we lost in the rubble
Cannot be replaced like the buildings that crumbled

They are all heroes to us, each one of them who died
We all hold a special place where they will live inside

Those unaware that met their fate trying to escape
And those who tried to save more lives yet lost their own in place

Such innocence was lost as hopes and dreams gave way
To the horrific acts of violence on that September day

But our loved ones did not die in vain
For these two common facts remain

That in our hearts and memories they forever will survive

And as defenders for all freedom we the people
won as we would not be in a divide

THE PAY PHONE

I trod on blankets of black ice
Each step cut a slice
That leave scares in my core
My heart full of sore
Downcast eyes fused with my ghostly reflection
I trod on

Lost in bitter sweet rapture
Darkness my only capture
The shadows ever mocking
Nocturnal scurries flocking
Their existence my company

I trod on
Like a tulip in June
The clouds give way
I see the pay phone

A shooting star

One night I wished upon a star
I looked up at the endless, black sky
My hopes, my dreams, I pondered long
While I scanned each bright star side by side

Each bright star in the sky were alike
As they were scattered across the earth
The spots of silver shining bright
But each one the same in the universe

I am only one person in a world of billions
Very similar, that it is so plain to see
I am like one star in a sky of trillions
Unique and different I will be

But then it happened, so fast so quick
It brightened up the whole dark sky
It was so awesome, so amazing and great
As a single shooting star shot by

Slowly a smile crept upon my face
As I watched this happen from afar
I could be different, I could be great
Just like that single shooting star

Love  

Summer heat
Burgers grilling
Sand under our feet
We collide with the waves
In every move we take

Salty water beaches
Sweet Water Rivers
No storms or winds
Nothing that'll make me shiver

And if there is something
That'll make me cold
It definitely can't be your heart
It's as precious as gold

The sun goes down
The moon comes up
Under the blanket of stars we are
Gazing, dazzled by the beauty up above
But nothing can be more beautiful
Than your sweet love

Jamie

I mean I never knew the pain you felt inside
you never let me know
while all the time I was mad over little things
you suffered more than me

You held it in
I let mines out
I mean there was no reason for me to harm you
but I did

With all the love I haven't receive from you
People say you hurt more than me
Could this be true love
How come I can not come back in love

I want to reclaim myself with you
As I may be hurting more than you
It seems now I can not get over you
While you are getting over me

THE WITNESS

THE LADY WHO STOOD THERE ON THAT SEPTEMBER DAY
SHE STOOD IN THE HARBOR
AND WATCHED HER COUNTRY CRY.
SHE STOOD IN THE HARBOR
AND COULDN'T TURN AWAY.

SHE STOOD IN THE HARBOR
AND WATCHED HER PEOPLE
PRAY WHILE THE PLANES WENT BOOM INTO THE BUILDINGS
CLOSE TO HER.
SO SHE CRYED AND CRYED FOR HER PEOPLE
SHE CRIED WHEN THE PEOPLE WERE IN FEAR
SO SHE SAID BYE AND DIDN'T LOOK AWAY ON THAT SEPTEMBER
DAY.

The Last Goodbye

I remember the time I saw you first
My mouth was drooling, I grew a thirst.
The way you smiled at me-
my heart grew a giant sea.

There was something about you deep down inside-
that I knew if something went wrong you'd be by my side.
Over the years we shared many laughs and tears
you were always my shoulder to lean on for support

Even if you thought I was being a dork.
You were a little hellion by night
and always put up a fight
but also a wonderful young man
Just like your parents planned.

I heard your voice and my heart began to rejoice
I enjoyed our conversation till the very end
yet this time was different
we talked only for a matter minutes
Never knowing when we'd meet again.
Even though we talked about whatever
those few moments will last forever.

~A LOVE TO REMEMBER*~

Around the corner I have a friend
In this great city that has no end,
Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,
And before I know it, a year is gone.

And I never see my old friends face,
For life is a swift and terrible race,
As in the days when I rang his bell.
And he rang mine if, we were younger then,
And now we are busy, active children.

Active of playing a foolish game,
Active of trying to make a name.

"Tomorrow" I say! "I will call on Josh"
"Just to show that I'm thinking of him."
But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,
And distance between us grows and grows.

Around the corner! yet miles away,
"Here's a telegram sir" "Josh died today."

And that's what we
Get and deserve in the end.
Around the corner, a
Vanished friend.

Sad love

Hero I'm sorry I was not there,
To catch you from falling out of the air,
I see all the people that never did care,
Can you see the hardships all of us bear,

Stupid decisions  on my mind,
All of the answers I left to find,
All of this pain left in a rhyme,
You'd still be here if I was on time.

I love you

I knew it was not true,
cause I really loved you.
It's been a little while,
since you've really made me smile.

You've treated me good,
Just like you should.
We have had a lot of fun,
I hoped you would be the one.

You've told me that you loved me,
I hope it will be
I hope it will be this way,
And I want you to stay.

LOST LOVE

I cry alone so scared,
Because you are not here,
I always new you cared,
When you silenced my fear,

Watched it fall away,
Not a single memory,
I'm begging you to stay,
But I always new you'd leave,

I can see it now,
You left an open door,
I do not know how,
But I cannot cry no more,

Never

Never say "I Love You"
If you don't really care
Never talk about feelings
If there not even there
Never say "I'm going to"
If you don't plan to start
Never look into my eyes
If all you say are lies
Never say "Hello"
If or when you really mean "Goodbye"
If you truly mean forever
Then promise me you'll try
Never say "Forever"
In the end I'll only cry

Peace

The world is doomed!
I cry for peace.
The innocence of our future is at stake.
Every morning I awake I ask
How real are the ambitions
To whom who govern us?

The beginning and the end of all creations,
The very reason for all beings below God
The final explanation of the ways of God
Were to be found in a spiritual obedience
Self sustained in a hostile, ever changing
world.

The function of every polity is therefore,
To teach men how to rule themselves.
To govern well is to train up a nation in
True wisdom and virtue!
The cry of peace is a virtue!
Oh peace!

  "Always Smile"

  Morning wakes me
  The sun touches my body
  Telling me to wake,
  Showing me a new day
  I lay and think,
  What must I do today?
  Besides work, I would like
  Like to walk in a park
 
  Laugh out loud as one in love
  Love thoughts around me
  Be thankful for the cool breeze
  And touch the body of a tree
 
  I would like to think back and remember
  Her moment, Her smile, Her silly ways
  Silly ways of asking why...
  So I remember and smile
  Knowing and "feeling" how time flies

Through the shadows

In darkness you sought me out
In the shadow you traced me out
Lonely and alone in a place quiet
You brought life into my heart

In my soul you gave me the fire in your eyes
They lit a path to set me free, still only to entrap me.
My hateful ways are dead and gone
Your passion broke my chains,

Your hands burned away my fears.
Now courage makes me strong
You helped me through the darkness
Now my love is complete in me...

   Silence

As I look into your eyes, I am pleased
I never knew, how much you meant to me
You are so beautiful, can't you see
That love is here, we can finally breathe

The air so dense, your heart so cold
Why don't you understand
That I need you to hold
You want to leave, but I will hold you by your hand

The fact of losing you,
Gives too much regret.
Hand in hand, your head looking down
I whisper the words, "I love you"
But there is no sound.

I look at you, I see the tears
I finally realize, It is over from here.
I kiss your cheek, And say, "Good-bye"
I turn around, and start to cry.
I walk away but all I hear is silence.
