George Eliot

What greater thing is there for two human souls than to feel that they are joined - to strengthen each other - to be at one with each other in silent unspeakable memories.

Wordless understanding

What greater joy could there be
Than when a lad and a lass
Are set to feel that they like
Each other and are joined together
To strengthen each other in all labour
To rest on each other in all sorrows
And to help each other in all pain
And to be one with each other
In silence, wordless understanding?

There Is No Greater Love

Isham jones / marty symes
There is no greater love
Than what I feel for you
No greater love, no heart so true
There is no greater thrill
Than what you bring to me
No sweeter song
Than what you sing to me
Youre the sweetest thing
I have ever known
And to think that you are mine alone
There is no greater love
In all the world, its true
No greater love
Than what I feel for you

Memories

*Whisper* Memories, Memories, Memories
In This World You Tried
Not Leaving Me Alone Behind
There's No Other Way
I'll Pray To The Gods: Let Him Stay
The Memories Ease The Pain Inside
Now I Know Why
Chorus
All Of My Memories
Keep You Near
It's All About Us
Imagine You'd Be Here
All Of My Memories
Keep You Near
The Silent Whispers
The Silent Tears
Made Me A Promise I'd Try
To Find My Way Back In This Life
I Hope There Is A Way
To Give Me A Sign You're Okay
Reminds Me Again
It's Worth It All
So I Can Go Home
Chorus
Together In All These Memories
I See Your Smile
All The Memories I Hold Dear
Darling You Know I Love You Till The End Of Time
Chorus

A Silent River Part2

Sunday is a holiday
I'do again
I'makes again
The memories of the silent river

I'come again
To remember
I'have ever love and miss
Here in the silent river, silent so silence

The memories of the silent river
I'felt his love again in this river
I'felt his longing again in this river
I'felt his kindly again in this river
And i'see again his softly face in the water
In this silent river, silent so silence

The silent river
Makes me remember
I'miss again
the silent river
Makes me to get so many things
Sitting nearby silent river

Come to me the lonely
Come to me the long yearning
Come to me the tears
Come to me the rain
The silent river keep my memories good

In the silent river, silent so silence
Save me now, from all the dejected
To spin around all back
This silence is geeting on my nerves
Were i'am so afraid
You were to be lost in thought
And all was lost to me
Here in the silent river, silent so silence

To be the Veda

Who am I?
Who put me here?
Why am I here?
What should I do?

Who will tell me who I am?
Who will tell me, who put me here?
Who will tell me, why I'm here,
and tell me then, what I should do? ..

Sometimes, I am all thankfulness
for what keeps all of me alive;
is there a greater one whom I may thank?

And sometimes, I'm alive with praise;
Is there a greater one whom I may praise?

Sometimes, as thunder rolls and lightning strikes,
earth quakes; seas foam,
I am all fear; is there a one
who’ll tell me, the other, or the greater
things that I should fear,
and tell me what I need not fear?

From day to day, my thankfulness
wells up for this; and then for that:
the earth that yields me food,
the rain that helps it grow,
the sun and light that help it ripen,
the air that I must breathe,
the sounds that draw me to my fellow men:

so are there many such, whose mighty powers
I should thank and praise,
or is there only One?

Or are there many in the One
whom I should thank and praise –
and what then do these greater powers
know of each other; know of that One?

Sometimes, when all is silent, still,
I seem to have a hint of whom I am;
of why I’m here; what I should do;

then who will tell me the greater more
of all the more I think I know?

Sometimes, when all is silent, still,
I wish to spend my days deep in that place;
but I must work; then should I trust
some other man or woman, who will spend
their days in thanking, praising, in my place?
or can my work be also thanks and praise?
who judges thanks and praise enough?

Sometimes, when all is silent, still,
I feel a greatness in me, that
joins me to all things in myself..
who shall tell me more of this?

Sometimes, when all is silent, still,
I seek for sounds, and words, and song,
to measure all that this heart feels:
oh, who will teach me greater words?

Is there a teacher, and a taught?
Or is the teacher all around?
Or is the teacher all within?

Oh, who will tell me whom I am,
in words that sing as from myself?

Insurgent

'Only mercy can liberate us from the madness of our determination to be consistent - from the awful pattern of lusts, greeds, angers and hatreds which mix us up together like a mass of dough and thrust us all together into the oven.'

Thomas Merton, Raids on the Unspeakable

Thin lines restrain,
sameness
my breath contains,
till I can no longer feel
Your perfect pain!

Then will I become
a silent ghost -
tears in the night
ache in their souls,
their dream of fright.

Yes! make me Your angel
of the seven plagues;
with Your love
We'll destroy bland fate.

G*d Unnamed

So many are reluctant, in their speech,
to make referral to the name of God;
as if to speak thus is to overreach
what may by human mind be understood.

Yet is it not the given power of mind
to do this very thing, and boldly seek
always the greater picture, there to find
the greater causes, and of them to speak?

Our consciousness is greater than the Sun;
it shines beyond the shadows of the mind;
in universal thoughts that look to One
a richer life this greater love may find.

Thus unnamed unity may head our quest;
for Goodness, Truth and Beauty there still rest..

Peace Day

A day will arise
When the horses will run
Covered by blinders to flaws found in every human
In unision across the land
Proportional in turnaround to the love brought around

Someday, our souls will unite
Crossing all divides
Withstanding all tides
Joined in peace and love
Grateful just for you
You human.

A silente creature

The silent creature
populates the human
minds
A silent creature
is invisible but
reliable and fizzy
This creature is
silent because she
needs to be
understood, refined and
she wants a
lot of aids
A silent creature
is an explosion
of life
To be a
silent creature is
a fresh and
wonderful sensation
A silent creature
is an angelical
messenger
She is a
happy, ancient, colorful
and vital imagine
A silent creature
tells many different
and interesting stories
Sometimes the silent
creature deceives to
defeat the racism
A silent creature
is defenseless from
the not curious
A silent creature
is a desirable
but desperate and
suspicious person
A silent creature
can be an
alter ego
She is a
guide of dignity
and human values

Expressive Urge

Intrinsically human
is the expressive urge;
to make the temporal timeless
to find rainbows
hidden behind water hanging in the sky.
it is our most vibrant link
with immortality, the cosmic communication
conversing with all creation
along the way upon a dirt road
that has no end.
to discover small lakes
lost in the deep woods of our souls
and trying to explain the way it feels
to see it for the first time.
to understand the trees
have memories, and
the memories are mine.
to realize the liquid moon
glowing in the river is the rain
that fell through the light
on it's way to earth.
to comprehend the reflection in the mirror
is everyone, together the image
of something far greater than me.
to come to terms
with the truth
that always I will be walking
to the mountains, and
can only paint their picture
from afar.
to try to believe here and there is hope, and
a promise, fulfilled.

Cant Get Away

I miss laying on the concrete floors
I miss the way it was before
No one even knew me
Your eyes look right through me
And Im taking off your clothes
And you bloom like a rose
Cant get away from you
I cant get away from you
Oh oh
Where the ocean meets the land
Is like the sliding of your hair
It prickles up my skin
I can feel the changing weather
Im alone out on that coast
It sends memories of your ghost
Cant get away from you
I cant get away from you
I cant get away from you
I cant get away from you
Oh oh oh
One thing that turns me off
One thing that trips me up
One thing...
One thing youll never know
One thing I cannot show
One thing Im never going
I go and walk alone
I found it on my own
I
I cant find release and
..
Dont know when I can go home
Through the airport corridors
See the magazines in stores
If I see that face once more
You know I cant ignore it
And I recognize that pose
When you bloom like a rose
Cant get away from you
I cant get away from you
I cant get away from you
I cant get away from you
And with the government... another month away
Messed up places where we always stay
And its funny that we always pick these spots
Even with the have and the have-nots
Sleeping on cots
Wishin that I had some tater tots
And theres postcards written that I never send
The memories gone and wont come again
My the souls that find no peace
Still I look to you to find release, find release, find release

Broken Pieces Of Me

U know it's funny, and the funny hahahaha OMG die hulle lot kinda thing, is that tried-I tried and finally I am tired, exhaustion has finally given in surrendered, arms up, you know that I give up kinda thing, that I-I can finally say love aint for real.

I have come to a conclusion, a I kinda now know now typa thing, that the only love that will ever exist is the love that God and my Blood family gives, a love I will eternally receive with open arms-heart and soul.

You know my only goal, only hope was to fall in love, and I thought I was (referring to my-my recent attempt) I mean. U sees she came indeed sweet, making me feel alive and needed indeed, valued finally human, a man.
I kid you not believe you me I kid you not, I harth not never in my life had the worst relationship with another human as this, a ship that knowingly seeing sink in front of my naked eyes, yes it slowly sinked but in greater speeds u see, cause its only been a coupla weeks.
So ya I have exhausted my love, I have tried so hard, only to be met by failed attempts, and parts of memories I would love to forget, so again I say please forgive me for not believing in that intimate kind of love I am done with this heartbreaking love, this I wish I never met you kinda love, this how I.... kinda love.

So I think it's about that time I gave my heart a break, for heavens sake.

Kick DEPRESSION in the ASS

Have you ever thought that you
Can never get away from your self
Your mind is always thinking
What you could, would, should have done
But didn’t, but will tomorrow
This never comes.
Do you find memories fill up a lot of your mind?
Some tiny little thing that someone said to you
Good bad or indifferent it always comes back,
Or that face far from a maddening crowd,
You do you know for you are human,
This all comes more when we are alone
Some souls are sad some are happy.
I’m a happy sod truly
Like everyone I have had a big punch below the belt but
It’s a war against the cancer of depression
That eats away at your happiness
Fight it with a smile, ridicule it with a laugh
Go on don’t let it win
Melt it with a grin
Go on, to yourself it’s your duty
Now look in the mirror and shout
YOU BEAUTY WITH GLEE!
Now walk outside head up high
LIKE ME. Feel better
Of course you do.

To Travel To Wander To Be Away From Anything

today i leave on a journey beyond the sea
i shall wander to see the other face of this earth
somewhere
i will be away from anything
it is my decision
it is my need,

away, i will wander, away, i will ponder
i will be hgher from this place
so i can see better from this far
i will be silent i will not write
i will not make conclusions

the wandering will be long
i will be alone
to the wonders of God's creations
unspeakable
unfathomable

i will just watch the flow of days and nights
i will be silent still
this spectator, this wanderer

this worshipper,
these eyes will just feel
unspeaking
because there are no words equivalent
to these wonders
that now i will begin to see with so much beauty
that will surely
shame me

Memoriors

Sometimes I feel losing my vision
A travel to the darkest of dungeons
I was trying to find thing of some kind
I travel with peace…reached that masterpiece
Light at the end of the tunnel
An exit from that darkest of the channel
I found myself in a different world
A colorful world
Where thoughts are flying like a bird
A world of the faces I recognize
The list is really long….it is not gonna end
A good feeling which will always suffice
Calm as the wind…cooler than the ice.
I have reached the world of MEMORIES
A smile on my face
It has been a long chase
Lost into the world of memories
I cherish every such moment of my life
Memories make me feel good
Memories make me feel bad
Memories are here to stay
They will never go away
These memories let me feel that I survived
And I have really lived life……….

Sub Human

One good wash and your outta my hair
You never shoulda' been there in the first place
I fell into a hole in the middle of your world
I got mud all over my face
I'm sorry everything I do is wrong to you and,
But you do everything that you can
To make me feel sub human
I try to speake my mind to you
I can't get a thing across to you
And I'm sorry everything I do is wrong to you and,
But you do everything that you can
To make me feel sub human
I eat the words you feed to me
I through them up in agony
And I'm sorry everything I do is wrong to you and,
But you do everything that you can
To make me feel sub human
solo
And I'm sorry everything I do is wrong to you and,
But you do everything that you can
To make me feel sub human

The Poetry In Us

it is not
in the metaphors that
we invent from
day to day
those that we see
in things that
we dress for ourselves
those that we
think can speak what is
unspeakable in
our beings
which in any way no matter
what we do
remain unspeakable
because they are.

the poetry in us
is not the poem.

do not ask me
it is nothing.l

Memories

Memories of good times
Memories of bad times
Memories of our love
So many memories

Memories of us crying
Memories of us laughing
Memories of our commitment
So many memories

Memories of us hugging
Memories of us kissing
Memories of those late nights
So many memories

Memories of how we met
Memories of how you left
Memories of what you said
So many memories

Why did you leave me
with so many memories
Did you ever realize
that my memories are yours

Everything we did together
stays within our memories
I remember getting hurt
Do you hurt too

Let's make a new memory
that we can both share
Let's love again
in our memories

Strengthen My Faith

Strengthen my faith,
Father.
Wherever You are.
Wherever I am.
Whenever it's done.

Stengthen my faith,
Father.
Wherever I go.
And whomever I may know...
Let this show.
I am the son of You the One.

Strengthen my faith,
Father.
Let it reveal,
Just how I feel.
In every way...
With no debating,
Or temptations awaiting to test...
To lead me astray!

Let the 'light' shine,
A divine mind within me.
Knowing,
And showing...
I can grow!

Let me define,
How You are there inside me.
Guiding with a hold...
I can not let go!

Strengthen my faith,
Father.
Wherever You are.
Wherever I am.
Whenever it's done.

I will be right here...
Expressing without doubt,
Who and What fulfills all my needs!
Even 'if' and when I am found on my knees...
Pleading.
