Kenneth Rexroth

Deer

Deer are gentle and graceful
And they have beautiful eyes.
They hurt no one but themselves,
The males, and only for love.
Men have invented several
Thousand ways of killing them.

Beautiful eyes, Beautiful lies

Sunlight warms my face only in dreams of you
I know you'll wait for me...it's been too long
Beautiful eyes. beautiful lies to dull the pain
Beautiful eyes, beautiful lies...you're killing me
I would wait for years just to feel you again
I will die without you...would you my love?
Beautiful eyes, beautiful lies pour from your mouth as
You scream his name...you're killing me
Cries escape your sweet voice as I kiss you one last time
Do you remember me and our beautiful affair?
Look in my eyes and honestly tell me our love is gone!
Why have you turned your back on me?
One day you'll wake up and realize your mistake
Ice runs through my veins as I stand face to face with
The one who stole it all
Compassion is not an option
In love we're one, inseparable, pathetic lust, thus we crumble
I saw your eyes, I wiped your tears, I waited for you...
Who do you see with your eyes shut tight?
Cries escape your sweet voice as I paint my own goodbye

In Your Own Ways

You are smart in your own ways
you are lovely in your own ways
you are beautiful in your own ways
You smile in your own ways


So crazy in your own ways
The madness of your own ways
such mysterious in your own ways
Those eyes of your own ways


You inspire me in your own ways
You talk in you own ways
you love me in your own ways
You suprise me in your own ways


Your kindness of its own kind
Your love of its own loveliness
your touch of its own comfort
And your kisses of its own sweetness


There is nothing so much worth to
treasure in my own ways than the
sweet memories of your own ways
Your life in your own ways
changes mine in its own way


God must have taken His own time
for sush a creation of its own kind
With everything in its own way
I must live your way.

She is Beautiful

She is beautiful, beautiful
In more ways than one
Even if she can't see far
And doesn't like war
She is still loved like the rest.

She may try her best
Or harder then the rest,
She may cut herself
For reasons inside.

She could love the guy
That sits to her right
And never go for him, but
She is beautiful, beautiful
In more ways than one.

It may not be the outside
It could be in
She could hate herself
Or always give in.

She may hate a person
And never know why, but
She is beautiful, beautiful
In more ways than one

We all are beautiful, beautiful
In more ways than one
Even if we deny it
We are loved like the rest
We are beautiful, beautiful
She is beautiful, beautiful
I am beautiful, beautiful
In more ways then one...

Beautiful Are You...

Beautiful, are you, as the flowers of the field.
Beautiful, is the sound of your voice.
Beautiful, is the touch of your hand.
Beautiful, are the eyes that speak of love.
Beautiful, is your understanding and kindness.
Beautiful, is the way you always consider others.
Beautiful, are the courage of your convictions.
Beautiful, are the silent, countless words of, I love you.
Beautiful, is the softness of your touch.
Beautiful, are the children that you hold dear.
Beautiful, is your faith, honesty and loyalty.
Beautiful, are the people, you bless with your love.
Beautiful, are you secret acts of charity.
Beautiful, is the goodness, you give to all.
Beautiful, is the way your never judge anyone.
Beautiful, is your never dreaming...that you are indeed so beautiful.
Beautiful, is your heart...your very soul.
Beautiful, is the way you have made this a better world.
Beautiful, is the helping hand, you extend to all.
Have I told you, you are beautiful in every way?
Have I told you, my beautiful one, that I love you?

We are blessed to know, one who is as beautiful
as you, in so many ways.
P.S.
I love you.

Letting Go

I still hear my voice
It's calling in my head
But if I had only one choice
I'd leave it left unsaid
Unsaid
I try to reach you but my senses got so blurry
And I, try to teach you but my words come out so muddied
And I, if there's one thing that I should let you know
It's go away
But I keep fighting and I'm finding your injustice
It's just killing me (killing you)
I cannot breathe
Just let me go (killing me)
Or this will break me
My inner voices
Are part of my disease
'Cause it's pushing me to hurt you
But killing you is just killing me
If I can't have you and the dreams you put inside my head
I would not leave you but I keep you here until our death
You think it's over, there's a gun in my head full of lead
I want to use it but I can't abuse it and that's why
It's just killing me (killing you)
I cannot breathe
Just let me go (killing me)
Or this will break me
My inner voices
Are part of my disease
'Cause it's pushing me to hurt you
But killing you is just killing me
What are you waiting for?
You will never get away
What are you waiting for?
You will not get away
What are you waiting for?
You will never get away
What are you waiting for?
You will not get away
(Unsaid)
My inner voices
Are part of my disease
'Cause it's pushing me to hurt you
But killing me you just killing me
'Cause killing you is killing me

Shes Just Killing Me

Also released on the from dusk till dawn soundtrack.
Everything about her was natural
Everything about her was cool
But Im a little partial for beautiful girls
Even if they blood runs blue
I think I see her
I think I want her
I think I love her
Shes just killing me
I think shes killing me
Her castanets are enormous
Her bongo beat absolute
And when she doin midnite performances
Shes got a secret somethin to boot
I think I see her
I think I want her
Oh, I think I love her
But shes just killing me
I think shes killing me
Miss satanic pandemonia
Dont get any lower or slower
What you see is what you get conmigo
And the bonus of an albino boa
I think I see her
I think I want her
Yes, I think I love her
Shes just killing me
Shes just killing me
(thats some time I had)
I think I see her
I know I love her
Yes, I might love her
Shes just killing me
She wanna be killing me
(suck my blood)

How To Win Friends And Influence People

It's a beautiful day, Yeah
And you look up in the air, just to see the sky
It's a beautiful day, Yeah
Just don't stare at the sun, you would burn your eyes
Do not believe in the lucky numbers
No, I do not believe in wishing on a star
Yeah to tell you the truth, I know there is a good reason
For all your bad dreams.
You know all of its true
People love to tell you that will break your heart
People love to break your heart
I do not believe in the things I can not see
I do not believe in the pretty sky
Yeah, to tell you the truth
I know they want me to believe they know whats best for me
You know its true
People love to hit you when you close your eyes
People love to hurt you when you close your eyes
People love to hurt you when you close your eyes
It's a beautiful day
It's a beautiful day
It's a beautiful day
It's a beautiful day
It's a beautiful day
(Look at the skies now)
Such a beautiful day
(Look at the skies now)
It's a beautiful day

It's a beautiful day

You will never see it falling

You will never see it coming

A Thousand Days

Ask me no questions and Ill tell you
Ill tell you no lies
When all is said and done
Does it really matter whos wrong or right
Dont ask me for a reason, I cant explain
Why we hurt one another again and again
As I lie bleeding here I still
I still reach for you
A thousand days
Have passed away
A thousand days
Were captured in her eyes
Your eyes are open now but you know
Its still hard to see inside
When action and intention
Are two seperate things
Now I somehow wish I could explain
Why we hurt each other again and again
Like someone on his dying breath
I still reach for you
A thousand days
Have passed away
A thousand days
Were captured in her eyes
Forever weve been
Trapped by our hearts
Trapped by our minds
Id like to leave
Id like to win at love
But I just cant let it go
And I just cant watch it slipping away
And I just cant let it go
And I just cant stand another minute
Maybe now someday our shattered lives
Will mend themselves again
But now a million miles away
I still wish I could
And though I somehow know, I cant explain
Why we hurt another again and again
Like someone on his dying breath
I still reach for you

Original Sin’s Dividend

If God had not
invented old age.
We would have found
some other way.

Of wasting ourselves.
Have we not?
A thousand plus pitiful
destructive ways.

You Are Most Beautiful When You Hurt

You are most beautiful
When you hurt
When your eyes fight back the tears
When your heart moans pathetically
When you cannot confront your fears

You are most beautiful
When you hurt
When you plunge in the infinite darkness of
Loneliness
And your existence is invaded by
Hopelessness
And you become a tormented dark thing

You are most beautiful
When you hurt
When you float in the grey depths of sadness
Like a lost creature
Rich in feeling
Beautiful!

Dont Say Your Love Is Killing Me

My eyes are closed
And Ive nothing more to say
But I was so willing to give it all away
And what a show
Ive loved you all I could
When will I see you, is nothing understood?
You thought I was stupid, but now I stop at nothing
(I stop at nothing)
I thought you were better, but loves gonna take a man
Yeah loves gonna take a man
Dont say your love is killing me
You know how much it means to me
I too have feelings deep inside
But would not hurt your foolish pride
Heaven only knows
At your every turn a scandal
But how does it suit you
When its all too much to cope with?
You thought I was nothing before you stepped into my life
(stepped into my life)
I thought you were clever, but loves gonna take a man
And you havent got it in you
Dont say your love is killing me
You know how much it means to me
I too have feelings deep inside
But would not hurt your foolish pride
Dont say your love is killing me
You know how much it means to me
I too have feelings deep inside
But would not hurt your foolish pride
Dont say your love is killing me
You know how much it means to me
I too have feelings deep inside
But would not hurt your foolish pride
(repeat)

I Am So Into You

Your elegant walk, you soft talk
your graceful smile, beautiful eyes
gorgeous long legs, makes me begs
picture perfect, a work of art
no one so beautiful as you
many gorgeous women, none matches you
the things you do makes me wonder to
how i could have found you, so lucky too
the quick smiles, the snappy come backs
the serious, the humorous, the sad sides
makes you one of a kind, excellent find
the twinkle in your big round eyes
melts me to the core
even when we argue i can't not be mad long
to see tears in your eyes, brings me heartache
never would let anyone hurt you, even myself
I am so into you, my heart to you
no one will ever take your place
there no mistake, I am so into you

The progress

Cooking invented, I have lost my teeth.
Tools invented, I have lost my hands
Carts invented, I have lost my legs
Electricity invented, I have lost my sight.
Calculator invented, I have lost counting.
Computer invented, I have lost faculty
Internet come, I lost neigbours.
Is mankind on march to stability?

~a Thousand Times, A Thousand Ways~

Beloved…
I’ve expressed my love;
A thousand times
A thousand ways
In a thousand rhymes,
A thousand plays

My muse
My friend
My everything
Alive within my soul
Sewn into my very being
My love…
It is you that makes me whole

Run free, Angel (R.I.P. Chelsea King)

She loved to run through the green forest,
Where the sun watched over her,
Where the lake’s cool and riveting motions
Met with the tranquil flow of the wind.

But the sun’s eyes
Could not change her destiny
They could not predispose her judgment
Or those of the Monster
Whose impulses were like those of a Tiger
Ready to pounce
Out of thirst, out of hunger, out of a sick taste for Vulnerability.

She ran like a deer,
Graceful and liberated,
Her eyes saw no danger
She succumbed to no fear.

But as a deer is entranced by a clean patch of grass
A Tiger finds opportunity
Strikes hard, and strikes fast.

The Tiger, the Monster,
Pounced on her body, devoured her soul
Fed her to the lake, who swallowed her whole.

The lake watched over her until the people came
It knew that the Monster would not win this game
His satisfaction would not go unnoticed
For this deer, this child, this girl
Was an Angel,
Is an Angel
And will always be.

Don't Cry

Give me time
To realize my crime
Let me love and steal
I have danced inside your eyes
How can I be real
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Precious kisses
Words that burn me
Lovers never ask you why
In my heart
The fires burning
Choose my color
Find a star
Precious people always tell me
That's a step
A step too far
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Words are few
I have spoken
I could waste a thousand years
Wrapped in sorrow
Words are token
Come inside and catch my tears
You've been talking but believe me
If its true
You do not know
This boy loves without a reason
I'm prepared to let you go
If its love you want from me
Then take it away
Everything is not what you see
It's over again
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry...

For The Love Of God

Love is eternal.
Love is beauty.
Love is beauty found in uglyness.
Love can be found in hate.
Love can create hate.
Love can hate.
Love can create.
Love can destroy.
Love can confuse.
Love can mislead.
Love can bleed.
Love can cry.
Love can hurt in more ways than one.
Love can be takin back.
Love can never be lost.
Love can always be found again.
Love will understand you.
Love will guide you.
Love will pick u up when u have fallen.
Love will help u along when u havnt the strength.
Love will get u to ur destiny.
Love will make u beautiful.
Love will make u true.
Love is not hate.
Love will create.
Love will destroy.
Love will confuse.
Love will mislead.
Love will bleed.
Love will cry.
Love will hurt in more ways than one.
But when it is all over and done love comes back to you.
But this love is not the love of another.
It is the love of urself.
The love of ur soal.
The love of god.

Purple Angel

You floated down and touched us
Your graceful fingers held
A dove with wings of pureness
By love and light propelled

We took you in our circle
And lavished you with praise
Your words and gestures gentle
Of chaste, old-fashioned ways

But soon your veils descended
Into the vat of dye
Life's bubbling, boiling cauldron
And came up full of lies

You were a purple angel
The kind men fear and dread
So pure and caring seeming
Yet chained to purple threads

You floated down and touched us
Your graceful fingers held
A Trojan Horse, a decoy
That we at last expelled.
