It Never Entered My Mind
Once I laughed when I heard you saying
That Id be playing solitaire
Uneasy in my easy chair
It never entered my mind
And once you told me I was mistaken
That Id awaken with the sun
And ordered orange juice for one
It never entered my mind
You had what I lack, myself
Now I even have to scratch my back myself
Once you warned me that if you scorned me
Id say a lonely prayer again
And wish that you were there again
To get into my hair again
It never entered my mind
Once you warned me that if you scorned me
Id say a lonely prayer again
And wish that you were there again
To get into my hair again
It never entered my mind

Drama!
One rule for us, for you another
Do unto yourself as you see fit for your brother
Is that not within your realm of understanding?
A fifty second capacity of mind, too demanding?
Well then poor unfortunate you
There are a myriad of things that you can do
Like pick up a pen and paper or go talk to a friend
The history of the future
No violence or revenge
Your shame is never...ending
Just one psychological drama after another
You are guilty and how you ever entered into this life
God only knows, the infinite complexities of love
We all have the ability
Our freedom is fragile
We all laugh and we cry dont we?
We all bleed and we smile
Your shame is never...ending
Just one psychological drama after another
You are guilty and how you ever entered into this life
God only knows, youre not to sacrifice the art of love
Your shame is never...ending
Just one psychological drama after another
You are guilty and how you ever entered into this life
God only knows, the infinite complexities of love
Your shame is never...ending
Just one psychological drama after another
We are guilty and how you ever entered into this life
The lord only knows, the ultimate necessity of love

What About Me
I see you here with me
I've waited all my life for someone like you
Someone to give my heart and soul to
I look into your eyes
Your love for me was such a welcome surprise
I think at last I've found forever
But what about me?
(I'll always love you)
What about me?
(I'll always need you)
You were my love before
But I need so much more of you
Time after time I feel I'm losing my mind
Or maybe this is what lovers must go through
It never entered my mind
We could be wasting our time
What am I gonna do?
But what about me?
No reason to pretend
True love affairs don't have to come to an end
The moment we don't have all the answers
I nearly go insane
Each and every time I hear you whisper my name
I feel the same when I'm around you
But what about me?
(I'll always love you)
What about me?
(I'll always need you)
This is so hard for me
I wanted so much to be with you
Time after time I feel I'm losing my mind
Or maybe this is what lovers must go through
It never entered my mind
We could be wasting our time
What am I gonna do?
But what about me?

Heart, or Father?
Feel with the heart that is my own
or think with the mind of my Father?
My heart says stay,
my Father says go.
My heart says high,
my Father says low.
My Father says play,
my heart screams laze.
My Father screams sleep,
my heart stays awake and ablaze.
Oh, what is a girl to do?
Feel with her own heart,
or think with the mind in her head,
but controlled by her Father?
A Poets Prayer
Dear father
you've entrusted me with this gift
and though my life may not be perfect
i promise to use it
you've giving me the ability to write
and for that i ask you guide my endeavors
I've seen many try and succeed
so i will try
may my lyrics influence the mind of the younger generation
and may i be immortalized not in flesh
but in mind and heart
not only in the heart of my family
but the heart of many long after am gone
may my poems be set as the floor bored
of a generation as i lay emotion
far from anything that i can show
into writing.
so your guidance is all i ask

Far From Everybody
FAR FROM EVERYBODY
Far from everybody
Far from the world of my dreams
Alone in silence I sit
A breeze comforts-
Peace Quiet Distance
My mind is at ease-
How blessed I have been all these years
With a mind that could find times of peace -
My father my dear Father
Who always prayed and pleaded for ‘Peace of Mind'
And could not find it
I am the dream your life realized.

Three Headed Mind Pollution
I made up my mind, do you mind that I really don't mind?
I gotta align my mind, but I ain't got the time
My mind mind? Yes, it minds. now do you mind?
I made up my mind, do you mind that I really don't mind?
Out of my mind
Three headed mind pollution
When the mind goes blind, you just might find
The mad man was busy sucking down the wine
Three headed mind pollution
I made up my mind, do you mind that I really don't mind?
I gotta align my mind, but I ain't got the time
My mind mind? Yes, it minds, now do you mind?
I made up my mind, do you mind that I really don't mind?
Out of my mind
Panic
I'm not gonna ask, you ask
Are you now or have you ever been
A member of the three headed mind pollution?
Three headed mind pollution, out of my mind
I'll take a double three headed mind pollution
Extra chili and cheese, to go!

Save Them Father
Father you are always on my mind, I love you Father and trust
in you with all my heart. I have no questions for your decisions,
my faith is strong and true.
Father I’m in awe when I look around this world, when I stand
and take in the awesome views, I know this is the work of the
Master, and that Master for certain is you.
This morning Father I pray for those without faith, who can not
see pass their noses. They have eyes that function, but they
truly can not see.
Father give these blind people the ability to come out from their
deadened shells, touch them with your spirit, let them see the
light.
Oh Father God, drench them with your love so they make no
mistake. Take them by the hand so some day they too will
walk through Heaven’s Gate.
Father sometime young people are taken in by those who have
no interest in their soul but only in the money that they hold.
The devil’s people live among us, taking advantage of many.
Your children need your guidance Father and your continued
patience for I truly believe some day they will come out of the
darkness, walk into the light and face the truth.
Father I leave these people to you, in your caring hands. May
they make Jesus the center of their lives and join their brothers
and sisters who know the truth, save them Father.
I Love you Father and I ask this Lord in the name of your only
Son Jesus.-Amen

Change Your Mind
When you get weak, and you need to test your will
When lifes complete, but theres something missing still
Distracting you from this must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch can change your mind
Dont let another day go by without the magic touch
Distracting you (change your mind)
Supporting you (change your mind)
Embracing you (change your mind)
Convincing you (change your mind)
When youre confused and the world has got you down
When you feel used and you just cant play the clown
Protecting you from this must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch can change your mind
Dont let another day go by without the magic touch
Protecting you (change your mind)
Restoring you (change your mind)
Revealing you (change your mind)
Soothing you (change your mind)
You hear the sound, you wait around and get the word
You see the picture changing everything youve heard
Destroying you with this must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch can change your mind
Dont let another day go by without the magic touch
Destroying you (change your mind)
Embracing you (change your mind)
Protecting you (change your mind)
Confining you (change your mind)
Distracting you (change your mind)
Supporting you (change your mind)
Distorting you (change your mind)
Controlling you (change your mind)
Change your mind (change your mind)
Change your mind, change your mind (change your mind)
Change your mind (change your mind)
The morning comes and theres an odor in the room
The scent of love, more than a million roses bloom
Embracing you with this must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch can change your mind
Dont let another day go by without the magic touch
Embracing you (change your mind)
Concealing you (change your mind)
Protecting you (change your mind)
Revealing you (change your mind)
Change your mind, change your mind (change your mind)
Change your mind (change your mind)
Change your mind, change your mind (change your mind)
Change your mind (change your mind)
Change your mind, change your mind
Change your mind
Change your mind, change your mind

Change your mind, change your mind
Change your mind, change your mind

Thank you Heavenly Father
You are the one and only true God
Thank you heavenly Father, for being the on who has and still
working on my behalf
I think...no I know my puny mind could not figure
the whole thing out
not by myself,
I'd lost my sanity had it not been for you
years ago 'Thank you Father'
You are GOD and there is no other
and there will never, never, ever be another
Thank you Father
for giving me peace
you know how I run to you when I'd get alarmed
especially when I have a heavy heart while shedding tears
Thank you Father for forgiving me of
disobedience, contrary, behavior 'Thank you Father'
thanks for not allowing me to die in those sins I was in
Thank you Father for our union

Too Much On My Mind
Theres too much on my mind,
Theres too much on my mind,
And I cant sleep at night thinking about it.
Im thinking of the time,
Theres too much on my mind,
It seems theres more to life than just to live it.
Theres too much on my mind,
And there is nothing I can say.
Theres too much on my mind,
And there is nothing I can do
About it,
About it.
My thought just weigh me down,
And drag me to the ground,
And shake my head till theres no more life in me.
Its ruining my brain,
Ill never be the same,
My poor demented mind is slowly going.
Theres too much on my mind,
And there is nothing I can say.
Theres too much on my mind,
And there is nothing I can do
About it,
About it.
Theres too much on my mind.

Peace of mind is found in my everyday activities.
Peace of mind is the mind I us to make my own decisions.
Peace of mind is the mind of a sober mind
Peace of mind is mine to have
Peace of mind is the mind of someone doing there best
Peace of mind is my mind that I wake up doing what is right for me
Peace of mind is you’re to have
Peace of mind is found in you

Three
(02/25/12)
The word three and why it means so much to me:
Have you ever really thought about the three?
And how it can affect you and me.
How it has been passed down thru time
And helped people see who were going blind
And who could not see what was in front of them
Even when it was a relative or friend.
Let me just put things in the perspective
That has entered my mind, and has been
There for a very long time.
#1) the father, the son, the holy ghost
#2) the three nails in both hands and feet
#3) the three kings at the birth of CHRIST
#4) land, sea, sky
#5) man, woman, child
#6) heaven, hell, purgatory
How many other threes can you think of
That has been given to us from above?
My other thing that is and always will be in my mind
Is how I end my poetry with FAITH, HOPE, LOVE
So to all my friends who may read my write
Take the plunge, take the plight
And see if I am wrong or right.
Faith, hope, love

Spontaneous Healing
Imagine…
No more HMO’s,
No more hospitals,
No more clinics,
No more mental asylums,
No more demigod-doctors,
No more pharmaceuticals,
No more surgery,
No more health insurance,
No more medical profiteers
How can this be so?
Nears the age of personal healing,
When some awaken to “A Great Secret”
The ability to transmute matter and energy
When human beings claim personal power,
When remembered an inborn ability to heal,
When “Laying on of hands” banishes,
Sickness, of mind, body and soul
Mankind shall then cry out;
“Father/Mother God it is finished”
Mankind made whole by The Grace of God,
Mankind bathed in Eternal Light,
Mankind readied for Ascension!
