I Hurt
For as long as I can remember.
Right from the beginning,
from the very start.
All I ever knew was hurt.
Life has dealt a rough hand.
On my own I try to understand.
Its my feet that do not stand.
For my soul has grown weak.
And the hurt I do not speak.
My heart has loads of secrets.
My eyes tell the pain.
My soul is ugly.
And my mind is lost.
Im forever searching.
For the way to be me.
And long for that day to be free.

Pain (lyrics)
Regret sits heavy in your chest until sometimes it gets so hard to breathe
Sometimes it just wont go away and you start to feel you will never be
And when you think back on those times it seems so close just beyond your reach
Until past vanishes like smoke from a cigarette in the night breeze
Please stop this pain
Hurt for so long
Pain
Hurt for so long
I've felt this way for so long
How is it that things turn out this way?
What you hold most dear has come and gone
Seems the time that everything was right
Now it just feels wrong, oh so wrong
And your still dreaming of the time
When the day will come, it was meant to be
And your still dreaming of the way
To reach that place that you've never been
Please stop this pain
Hurt for so long
Pain
Hurt for so long
I've felt this way for so long
Pain
Hurt for so long
Pain
Hurt for so long
Pain
Hurt for so long
Pain
Hurt for so long
I've felt this way for so long

I Remeber
'All my life,
I've been searching,
until that day when,
I met you.'
These words seem foolish,
to me now,
just looking back,
I fell for that? !
What did I know,
nothing I suppose,
for now I see,
you never meant a word.
I hope one day,
I can look back,
and understand why,
you did what you did.
But until then,
I just sit,
in pain and agony,
because of you.
I hope one day,
you'll feel such pain,
then realize how badly,
you hurt me.
I know it's wrong,
to wish pain on another,
but I really want you,
to understand all this.
But that's long in the past,
though days I still dream,
of the times we shared,
and what you meant to me.
We had something special,
but it never lasted long,
but those days leading up to it,
I'll never forget.
The way you let,
your heart do the talking,
the way you just,
were all you could be.
The way our eyes met,
the way our hands touched,
such perfect days,
now just dreams.
I would get lost,
in your eyes,
and keep silent,
as you spoke.
I remember those days,
do you as well,
remember the time,
my heart skipped a beat?
The laughs,
the tears,
the love,
and warmth.
But I guess,
it's all in the past,
there's nothing I can do,
but just let go of you.

Remember You and I
Remember you and I
Remember the days we talked on the telephone forever,
Remember the nights we spent together,
Remember we dreamed they would last forever,
And we would never part,
The heart,
Does play tricks on the mind,
Like fools in love we were,
In the sands of time
Remember the long walks in the moonlight,
Your hand in mine, and I would hold you close and
Let the winds of life rush by,
Remember you and I
And of the life we dreamed,
And the thought of never saying goodbye,
Then I lied,
I became someone I was not
I broke your heart, and I can still see
The pain in your eyes,
And feel the hurt of your cries,
I remember you and I
When I close my eyes I dream of what could have been,
What never was to be, because of a foolish lie,
I paid the price, alone I dwell ,
Now twenty five years have passed,
You found love again and so did I,
And with family, love and time,
We can again say Hi, but in every second we speak,
I still remember your touch, your Kiss, your heart,
Your love, and all that could have been if only
I had not lied
I will always love you in part till the day I die,
And will forever
Remember you and I

Truth and Lies
'We can hide ourselves behind our walls of secrecy
But in doing so we hurt not only ourselves but the ones around us
Secrets can remain Secrets for only so long
Guilt can get a person to spill their guts without hesitation
Lies will burn a hole into your heart and make you hurt
Truth will mend it in a hurry as long as it comes first
Truth is the only thing that won't hurt me, but to lie then tell the
truth will hurt me more than the truth from the start
Trust can be a very strong foundation
but when congealed with lies to save the other from pain
This foundation can wear away and disappear in the end'

So Hurt
Its hard I know to understand
Nothing lasts for ever
The things you used to say and do
The places you would go to meet
When you were together
You set your face against the tide
The harsh words that were spoken
But after all the anger
The shouting and the tears
You found your heart was broken
Fight the tears
Fight the fever
Dont give in
Soul deceiver
So hurt
With the pain you cant hide
So lost
And lonely inside
So hurt
When the feeling has died
So hurt
With the pain you cant hide
So lost
And lonely inside
So hurt
When the feeling has died
Just like the clock went back ten years
To make a new beginning
To work out how to live your life
To take the board and play the game
And recognise youre winning
Your memories mean nothing now
Youre just a little older
Moving forward with the crowd
Silent fears but laughing loud
Not wiser but just bolder
Fight the tears
Fight the fever
Fight the hurt
Dont give up
So hurt
With the pain you cant hide
So lost
And lonely inside
So hurt
When the feeling has died
So hurt
With the pain you cant hide
So lost
And lonely inside
So hurt
When the feeling has died

Daddy Of A Soldier
I'd wrap my soul around your heart if it could ease your pain
My soul, my heart, my arms but still your hurt would remain
He's leaving soon to fight some war in a far off distant land
The son you raised and taught to love and never raise a hand
Days into weeks and weeks will seem like years
Before the war is over, will have cried thousands of tears
I hurt for him and hurt for you, knowing the pain we'll all go through
He's got to pay back Americas debt that is long overdue
The Army took a boy and turned him into a strong man
He's going to fight for our safety, we all must take a stand
God he's in your hands now, we're leaving it up to you
Please let him fight in victory, for the red, white and blue!

Death without purpose
death for me I must embrace,
death for me, is a OK place,
For death waits for me with open arms,
For I have dealt death,
Death is now being dealt to me,
For I thought I had a Angel,
A savior,
The person who pick me up and gave me purpose,
A love I had thought I never imagined,
Now this is gone if you could only imagine,
You had my soul, now my soul is gone,
Who am I with out you? With out my soul?
With out you making me hole,
Now death is awaiting me with a smile,
No purpose, no love, no soul,
Life and death, death and life,
they stand side by side in the end,
For now death hands me its hand,
I don’t know who I am,
So death once again offers its hand,
Such a easy offer right at hand,
For its a easy answer,
For all I feel, death does seem the sure deal,
Sorrow, pain, heart ache, purposeless, loveless,
Hate for ones self, for all the things I have done,
This sure seems the answer,
Death looks at me with a glean in his eye,
He knows I am tempted to take the easy way out,
Is that such a terrible thing to have offered?
Do be tempted to take?
What else is there now left for me to take?
What else do I have to be taken now?
If this is the choice I make,
Don’t mourn for me for its to late,
Don t show me sympathy I have to shake,
Just let me go,
I choose this, not you, not your blame
Take my soul,
It is your, once always, and forever,
When the going gets rough,
Remember what I stood for,
For I can not stand for myself,
I can not take the this feeling I have inside,
I'm lost with out you by my side.
Will I be judged for the things I have done?
The sins I have committed?
Well in the end it really doesn't matter, now does it?
Now death is waiting patiently by my side,
Now as I lye here awake with a gentle shake,
I know what it is to have death on my side,
So now I say goodbye,
Death is taking me for a ride,

Hurt Like An Ocean
Ocean
once in a while calm
but known for being rough
beuatiful like the sky
but delicate and dangerous underneath
people sailing over it
people trying to get deep inside to discover a reason to lifes questions
to steal her treasure
humans destroy her
their polution
their carelessness
I am like the ocean
rarely calm
people call me beuatiful
but can i be with how dangerous i am
people get hurt trying to get inside my head
freinds like waves
in my life and then out
destroying my soul
trying to steal my heart
or my inner most secrets
you harm me
you hurt my heart
stop polluteing my mind with ideas that will never happen
i dont like fairy tales
the ocean continues to be hurt
and so do i
no wonder its one of the worlds most dangerous jobs to work on the sea
you hurt the sea so she hurts you
you hurt me ill hurt you
simple concept that no one seems to understand
we will continue to be hurt
and prosectuted
for the enjoyment of others
we have done nothign wrong
yet you punish us
one day it will all blow up in your face
when that day comes
me and the ocean will sit back and laugh

Timeless
Pain like this,
Hurts like never before,
I've never known pain,
As bad as this.
You hurt me,
Do you know that,
Do you know,
That I miss you?
I lied before,
When I said it's okay,
Because I'm truly,
Dying on the inside.
But I'd never tell you,
That you made me this way,
Because I don't want you,
To hurt like this.
I care about you,
Too much to,
Make you feel,
Even a little pain.
Did you know that,
I'd never hurt you,
I would have never ever,
Let you go.
You were special,
Rather are special,
And you'll always,
Have a place in my heart.
But I must know,
Why you let me go,
Why you turned,
And walked away.
Oh please tell me,
Tell me what I did,
Tell me why,
I stand here alone.
You made your promises,
That I thought you could keep,
But you broke them all,
When you left me.
I need you here,
At my side,
I long for the days,
When you were here.
I remember those days,
When you were at my side,
I remember the way,
You looked in my eyes.
I miss those days,
When you'd just gaze at me,
When your glance,
Made me smile.
Every second felt timeless,
Every second was perfect,
And I knew that what,
We had was true.
But my dear I ask,
That you tell me why,
Why I sit here,
Dying for you.

Forever Free
i was imprisoned
behind bars
there was no way
my physique could be out
i do not mind
the devils in them
could not
let me dwell here
my mind long ago gone
and discovered, peace, ecstacy
behind these brown and stained iron grills
never can they contain
my heart that had gone astray
beyond their naked eyes
no they can never spoil
the love from within me
not with their uncaring soul
not with their whips of desolation
my heart will forever be free
wild and free..
this soul they cannot tamper
they could not hold it within a moment
for it had long gone away
beyond their wild dreams and imaginations
for it can freely adore
and appreciate deeply
the presence of the omnipotence..
maybe they thought i am theirs
but it will never never be
i am young, wild and free
my mind is as wild as an eagle
my soul as ravaging as a bull
my heart just beats for love..
behind these bars i am me
a mind, a heart a soul forever free..

Lost Without You (Rondel)
Without your love, I’ll be forever
lost in a world of hurt and pain.
Without your love, what will I gain?
I’ll flow in life like a sad river.
Why can we be again together?
Why can we happily walk in the rain?
Without your love, I’ll be forever
lost in a world of hurt and pain.
Ah, all the memories that I remember!
Without your love, I’ll go insane.
My love for you... it was in vain?
It will be forever a cold, dark December?
Without your love, I’ll be forever
lost in a world of hurt and pain.

Your Touch
Tears in my eyes pain in my heart.
My whole world seems to be falling apart.
An thru the pain an sadness a smile comes on my face.
You wipe away my tears n in your arms u embrace.
You forever make me weak.
When u lay your hands on me I am lifted off my feet.
You take me by the hand and tell me it's ok.
An instantly when I look at u the pain goes away.
Your hands so smooth n your touch so soothing.
The road right now is bumpy but soon it will start smoothing.
I could never give back everything u gave to me.
An I know your scared yet u still have faith in me.
So take my hand once again n I promise I want hurt u.
Because u can't deny that what we have is true.
I promise u baby when I get one more chance.
I will treat u perfect n we'll have our first dance.
An then our love will just keep growing stronger.
As we have kid's n become rich n live together so much longer.
Holding u at night thinking bout u thru the day.
I'm sure this hurt I caused u will never go away.
But the good will soon outweigh the bad.
An there will never be another day and your life where u will stay sad.

The Beastie
hidden in the darkest recesses of my mind,
Hides an unmistakeable creature.
Fangs sharper than the shiniest steel
Its heart colder than ice.
Its eyes are of fire and lust.
Lust of blood and pain
Like the forever living demons that fly through hell
Bending the truth and truthing all the lies.
Forever loathing the angels abouve
Those who fly free with grace
the creatures toy with my mind
with my emotions and my soul
It has hurt me and it has hurt those around me
This creature is my love for you

Night..
Night is the worst time
Night is a hard time
Why can't I sleep
Why can't I rest
Pain in my heart
Pain in my eyes
Lost is my true love
Lost is my heart
The night is dark
Dark are my thoughts
Lost is the daylight
Lost is my life
Night is like death
Night is so cold
Hurt when I rest
Hurt in my soul
Longing for you
Longing to hold you
Lost forever
Lost to the night

That Girl
That girl thinks that shes so fine
That soon shell have my mind
That girl thinks that shes so smart
That soon shell have my heart
She thinks in no time flat
That shell be free and clear to start
With her emotional rescue of love that youll leave turn apart
That girl thinks that shes so bad
Shell change my tears from joy to sad
She says she keeps the upper hand
cause she can please her man
She doesnt use her love to make him weak
She uses love to keep him strong
And inside me theres no room for doubt
That it wont be too long
Before I tell her that I love her
That I want her
That my mind, soul and body needs her
Tell her that Id love to, that I want to
That I need to do all that I have to
To be in her love
Ive been hurting for a long time
And youve been playing for a long time
You know its true
Ive been holding for a long time
And youve been running for a long time
Its time to do what we have to do
That girl, that girl
That girl knows every single man
Would ask her for her hand
But she says her love is much too deep
For them to understand
She says her love has been crying out
But her lover hasnt heard
But what she doesnt realize is that Ive listened to every word
Thats why I know Ill tell that I love her
That I want her
That my mind, soul and body needs her
Tell her that Id love to, that I want to
That I need to do all that I have to
To be in her love
Tell her I love her
That I want her
That my mind and soul and body needs her
Tell her that Id love to, that I want to
That I need to do all that I have to
To be in her love
That I love her
That I want her
That my mind and soul and body needs her
Tell her that Id love to, that I want to
That I need to do all that I have to...
Tell her that I love her
That I want her
That my mind and soul and body needs her
Tell her that Id love to, that I want to
That I need to do all that I have to
To be in her...
That girl, that girl, that girl,
Oh, that girl, that girl, that girl, that girl...

Xray pain but in the hart
My pain is not on an xray.
It is in the hart.
Trapped deep within my soul.
I hurt and hurt.
And still I search.
Search for a way to be free.
My pain is blinding.
Crippiling and strong.
My emoitions are a wreck.
Like a wreckage at sea.
I hurt I hurt.
When will they realise?
Im in pain
And I hurt

Pain and Hurt
born in to pain and hurt
growing in pain and hurt
living in pain and hurt
sleeping in pain and hurt
waking in pain and hurt
cuting in pain and hurt
bleeding in pain and hurt
crying in pain and hurt
i know nothing other then pain and hurt
i use drugs to end the pain and hurt
but all i get is pain and hurt
is there nothing other then pain and hurt

To Be Fully Human!
hand to hand, brother,
our backs against the wall.
with nothing left to cling to...
but each other!
mind to mind, sister,
your thoughts free my thoughts,
my thoughts affirm yours....
understanding is the bridge....
heart to heart, my friend,
we are joined by the destiny
for which we were born....
love is the motion.
soul to soul, my family,
if you hurt i hurt,
if i need you need...
one hope, one desire....
to be fully human!

My Memory Of You
My Memory of You…
I can remember the first time we met, the way
Your smile just lit up my day
I can remember how you kept helping me up
When I was down
I remember everything about you,
Your hair, your eyes, and that smile
I can remember your piercing blue eyes…
That make me weak
I remember our first kiss, and the way
You were so nervous
I can remember how shy you
Used to be
I don’t have to remember how much I loved you
Because I still can’t live without you
I remember all the pain, hurt, and fear
You put in my heart and my head
I remember how much I wanted to embrace you in my
Arms and not let any thing hurt you
I somehow can remember all of this… but
I can’t remember why… why you tried
To take your life
I remember how scared I was that you
Would actually do it this time
I remember all those things
I remember you

Forever In Poetic Rhymes
The emptiness inside shields my thoughts,
Desperate not to reveal my feelings so true.
Yet another mask of comfort has been bought,
Only to be revealed when I am with you...
Emotions dine upon the eyes of my soul,
Like rust you eat away at my very core.
Training thoughts in my mind to make you whole,
So that we may have so much more...
Teach me the power of exquisite pain,
So that I may hurt you as you have hurt me.
Show me once more and yet again,
So the pain you have caused may set me free...
Yet why have you claimed the core of my heart?
When I tried to forget the thought of you so many times.
Could it be that love was meant to start,
And we were meant to be, forever in poetic rhymes...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...
