Shattered Dream...
I sit alone peering into the darkness of night,
Waiting and wanting you to come back to me,
To be engulfed once more by your sweet embrace,
Yet I know my dream is to be unfulfilled,
Since you have gone from this life,
Pain cuts deep into my heart like a dagger,
I cannot see an ending to this agony,
For it grows deeper and more sorrowful each day,
I cry myself to sleep each and every night,
Hoping upon hope that morning shall never return...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...

Here Comes The Night
Lyrics by J. Bettis
Music by Barry Manilow
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The day is ending
And the same old pain begins
Each deeper shade of blue
Brings back more of you to miss
I fight the tears again
But I just can't win and
Here comes the night
And here I go out of my mind again
Here comes the night
And here I go crazy missin' you
Wanting you
Needing you
I just can't stand it
Here comes the night again
I still remember
You lyin' next to me
The love would go so deep
We wouldn't get to sleep at all
These nights I'm losing sleep
To a lonely memory
Here comes the night
And here I go out of my mind again
Here comes the night
And here I go crazy missin' you
Wanting you
Needing you
I just can't stand it
Here comes the night again
Will it never end
Why can't I forget forever
Here comes the night
And here I go out of my mind again
Here comes the night
And here I go crazy missin' you
Wanting you
Needing you
I just can't stand it
Here comes the night again

I Dream...
I dream of a better world, where we are all different shades of the same palette.
I dream of lifes disputes crumbling from our sight, never to be heard again.
I dream of blue skies and radiant flowers, as we stroll together through meadows of hope.
I dream of moonlit nights where the aroma of life permiates the air.
I dream of falling in love with the one who just takes my breath away.
I dream of angels dancing across the starry expanse of our horizon.
I dream of earthly achievements never imagined by men of limited vision.
I dream of peace, no longer the warring beast devouring my fellow man.
I dream of calmer seas that no longer rock the boat of man's tranquility.
I dream of you and I eternal, no more this lonely night of my existance.
I dream of walking on a golden beach with the one I love, hand in hand.
I dream of what might have been, what is now, and what has yet to be revealed.
I dream of no longer forsaking my sanity to the darkness of my emotions.
I dream of no more waking hours consumed by the unfulfilled promise of nirvana.
I am a dreamer, but without dreamers what would our world be?
As empty as a heart that knows not love, As dark as a night bereft of stars.
I feel therefore I must have feelings, I breathe therefore I must be alive.
I sleep therefore I am destined to be a dreamer, so I say dream on.
Let your dreams bring you to a place of everlasting serenity...
Because we exist, We dream...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...

Shall I ever? ...
Shall I ever know a night within your embrace?
Shall I ever know a morning that see's your smile?
Shall we ever embrace one another in a field of hope?
Shall the song in my heart ever sing your name?
Shall the dark times we know shine bright in the light of love?
Shall our hearts ever beat to rythm of the same drum?
Shall I pass you by on life's journey without recognition?
Shall we miss the never that might have been? ...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...

One last dream...
Floating through the night sky,
Ivory fingers comb cotton clouds,
A shower of jewels fall upon the moon,
Like molten diamonds weeping,
The dagger pearces my dream,
I breathe deeply one final breath,
Born of the wamth of mother earth,
I am released into the never ending night,
Forged by untold dreams of sweet ecstasy,
Bound by earthly rules no more,
I absorb stars and moons alike,
Expanding until naught exists but I...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...

What went wrong? ...
As I wander through this life,
searching for something meaningful.
Only to see it slip from my grasp,
And vanish down lifes waterfall...
And I fall deeper into the abyss,
All of my secrets fade to nothing.
This well of passion remains untapped,
All of my hopes concealled in darkness...
Wildly I lash out at this dark night,
Fighting the demons that live within.
For I have raged war upon my own soul,
In effort to silence the cries of desperation...
I live within a world of unfulfilled dreams,
Spurning love for fear of failure.
I have turned my back upon passion,
Preferring the darkness of my solitude...
There's no one here to cheer for me,
Or to smile when I am brilliant.
The life I yearned for has not happened,
So here I sit wondering... What went wrong? ...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...

Burn
don't look don't look" the shadows breathe
Whispering me away from you
"don't wake at night to watch her sleep
You know that you will always lose
This trembling
Adored
Tousled bird mad girl... "
But every night i burn
But every night i call your name
Every night i burn
Every night i fall again
"oh don't talk of love" the shadows purr
Murmuring me away from you
"don't talk of worlds that never were
The end is all that's ever true
There's nothing you can ever say
Nothing you can ever do... "
Still every night i burn
Every night i scream your name
Every night i burn
Every night the dream's the same
Every night i burn
Waiting for my only friend
Every night i burn
Waiting for the world to end
"just paint your face" the shadows smile
Slipping me away from you
"oh it doesn't matter how you hide
Find you if we're wanting to
So slide back down and close your eyes
Sleep a while
You must be tired... "
But every night i burn
Every night i call your name
Every night i burn
Every night i fall again
Every night i burn
Scream the animal scream
Every night i burn
Dream the crow black dream
Dream the crow black dream...

Angel of my dreams...
She is close by, I can feel her silent heat,
Her beautiful form pressed against me,
My body trembles at the mere thought of her,
Desire like a razor slices open my soul,
Opening me to her tender embrace,
I am lost in a passionate dream of her,
Each breath ruled by her intoxicating power,
Eyes open, the dream is over, once again she is not here,
And my heart weeps in silent agony for her return...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...

One Broken Heart
Young girl you really did believe in him
Still he broke your heart with lies
Youve got to be stronger, the pain,
It wont last much longer
Dont lose respect for yourself, no
Sweet young thing,
No, dont lose your head
Or by the time youre seventeen
Youll be waking every morning
With a stranger in your bed
One broken heart,
I know it cuts like a knife
But one broken heart
Is no reason to give up on life
Girl, be waiting, be anticipating
For that new love to come along
And one broken heart, youll survive
So sad,
You lived for and now youre dying for love
But you wont find it, like that
No peace and calm,
In the strength of a strangers arms
Baby wake up to yourself
Love aint guaranteed, no,
But it sure is worth a new start
Or by the time youre twenty-one
Youll be lying in a strangers bed
Dying from a broken heart
One broken heart,
I know it cuts like a knife
But one broken heart is no reason to give up on life
Girl, be waiting, be anticipating
For that new love to come along
And one broken heart, youll survive
And Im hoping, Im really hoping
That sweet love will come your way
To mend one broken heart, youll survive
One broken heart, youll survive
One broken heart, youll survive

An Old Man Cannot Sleep At Three O'Clock At Night Erev Chanukah 5770
AN OLD MAN CANNOT SLEEP AT THREE O’CLOCK AT NIGHT EREV CHANUKAH 5770
An old man cannot sleep at three o’clock at night
The dark night is not the night of his soul,
He knows morning and light will come.
He is old
But he believes in a new day,
Every new day
Has its light and its surprises
Life difficult and not
Is always a new story.
Let us deep in the night,
Dream always of the day
And even in our old age
Hope and hope again
For the light which will come.

So Deep Within You
Talk to me baby, I want to sleep at night.
My heart is heavy, its weighed down by the night.
And now Im lonely, I want to see the light
So deep within you.
Cool wind is blowing through your crazy hair.
Warm colours flowing, this feeling we have shared.
And now Im lonely I want to feel the love
So deep within you.
Your loves a never ending dream,
A castle by a stream of sweet understanding.
I know youre thinking of me too, the messages
From you are my inspiration.
Loves incense lingers, it never fades away.
Like you Im waiting for our special day.
And now Im lonely I want to feel the love
So deep within you
My love is burning, like a forest fire.
My heart is yearning, I feel a warm desire.
And now Im lonely I want to tough the fire
So deep within you.

The Need To Be Free
In my dream I wander a moonlit night,
All across my heaven the stars shine bright.
Each star a shining stepping stone,
Lighting a path that leads me home...
Gone are the days when men were the same,
For now we compete and life is just a game.
Each night I weep into the darkness,
Every tear I weep just makes me feel less...
My dream is a dream that has no end,
On golden angel wings this life we can mend.
The pain we carry is just like a disease,
It keeps us in turmoil, prevents us from ease...
There are days for us with no more hurt,
Where we no longer struggle in the dirt.
For each of us possess the true life key,
The desire of life and the need to be free...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...

Goddess of Pain
Oh Goddess
Of Pain
What will I do
Without you
Everyday
You bless me
With the feeling of pain
You make me hurt
Every single day
Do you like to
Hurt me so much
With all the pain
You give me
You tear my heart
Apart so much
I cant stand it
I try to stitch it
Back together
But you dont want
That to happen
So you just tear open
My new heart
Sometimes I wonder
If what you give me
Is not a gift
I wonder
If it is
A curse
That you pledge on me
I dont know
What I shall do
With you watching me
Every single day
Making my life
Miserable then ever
Some pain is good
But I have one little question
Just for you
Will you please
Let up a little bit
From all the pain you give me
I cant take it
Anymore
So please
Just think about it
And hopefully
Youll understand
I am just human
That is not the strongest
In the world
So like I said
Please
Just think about it
I know I will
Be thinking about it
Hoping that you understand
Because it hurts so much
I cry myself
To sleep every night
Wanting the pain to go away
I feel very tired
Right now
So I am going to go
And cry myself to sleep
Wanting you
The Goddess of Pain
To take away
All the pain
You have given me
From day after day

Dark Light Dark
Living nightmare awake
Solitude unyielding
Forsaken forgotten
Cannot sleep
Cannot dream
Reprieve darkness
Praying sleep
Praying dream
Awake prisoned darkness
Time passes never light
Darkness consuming
Broken lost
Waiting sleep
Waiting dream
Light draws near
Light appears
Shineth deliverance
Warm glimmer hope
Darkness retreats
Happiness surfaces
Thorns gone
Pain fades
Shelter amidst light
Dream envelopes cherish
Dream breaks shattered
Awaken again darkness
Scream pain again
Darkness spinning ruling
Light blackened

Delighted Morning
compose made easy
every morning dews engulfed
devolved the night fall into the glances of the sky
wait until dawn, as the firefly sings and the cricket
dances to fly
take me where the soul
reside and bring me the wind
that says sweet goodbye, lead the resting place where
everybody wants to sleep with the sky.
look up the night as it falls down
in the heaven
like shadows calling window of the night, letting the
eyes to close the light that passes on
the sleep of dream forward
to lie
come leave me to pass this night …

Tears of Blood...
Lost and alone I wander barefoot through a realm of shattered dreams,
Each tiny shard of hope laughing at me as they pierce into my flesh,
I contemplate my pain and why it should amuse them so,
For now they have tasted my agony and I too have become broken,
Tears of blood I cry as I pluck each shattered dream from my soul,
Yet why do I mourn the fact that they are no longer part of me?
Must I crave the sweet sting of pain to feel truly alive?
My humanity imprisoned by the walls of my own self doubt,
When you read my thoughts, smile... For my pain has ears...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...

Good morning Sunshine
Good morning sunshine
Sweet loving light
Held in the darkness
Throughout the night
Hello sweet love
That brightens my days
With the smiles you share
And your sweet precious ways
Deep mysterious eyes
That truly amaze
The depth of passion
A heartfelt gaze
Sweet loving arms
That hold so tight
Bring warmth of love
Throughout the night
Good morning sunshine
So glad you are here
You bring such warmth
A heart so dear
Through out this day
I am thinking of you
Sweet loving thoughts
A love so true
With a simple embrace
And a soft gentle kiss
Our day lives on
Sweet loving bliss

His Child Reaching Up To Embrace
God eagerly waiting to embrace
his soul his heart each morning.
God eagerly waiting to embrace
his child reaching up to embrace.
A child asking questions of own heart
why his father’s heart him doth so move.
Pouring upon him unlimited love divine
giving a guiding light love from above.
A heart eager to be taught and know
God's love with each new day’s light.
A heart wanting to climb up to his God
upon a sun-beam or moon beam night.
If thy will is to seek would God’s love know?
To each every mortal soul good deeds sow.
Do not stack all their error sins in view row
humility compassion charity to them show.

A sublime beginning…
The night sky is illuminated by the stars,
I awake from my slumber to observe a sleeping world,
The past has faded into the mists of time,
Only the present holds any reality as I stare into the abyss,
As I look up at the wonders of a heavenly sky,
I begin to run with arms out stretched,
Faster and faster I feel the air caress my skin,
It rushes through my hair like a long lost enchantment,
Without any effort I have taken flight,
Time and space have lost all thought and meaning,
I have become one with nature as I make sweet love to the night,
This is laughter this is joy, such a sublime existence,
To gaze upon the beauty of this earth from such a height,
Never have I soared to such dizzying heights before,
Exhilaration fills every pore of my existence,
I look around me as I soar up to the heavens once more,
I realise that I am not alone in this night's sky,
I see that others have taken this flight of fancy,
As we dance across the night heading for euphoria,
I notice a shape emerge from the amidst the stars,
Playfully we pirouette across the heavens,
I turn and fly away with a glance over my shoulder,
Hoping upon hope that she will follow,
For although many have tried to capture this heart,
None have ever had what it takes to conquer a dreamer,
When shall there be an ending to this numbness?
When shall there be a sublime beginning?
Spread the love… The peace will follow…

Single Candle Light
The warm glow of a single candle flame
beckons a weary stranger there
to the bosom of a warm fire in
from the nighttime's cold.
A warm caring heart keeps the candle lit
to welcome back their love
from their long and lonely trek.
Each night they light the candle,
and sit waiting all alone,
hoping one night their love,
will glance on it
and return to their loving home.
The warm stretching finger
prods the darkness every night,
as it can be seen from miles away
across the empty prairie,
as they sit alone each night
by the warm fair light.
Hoping that their love will see its warm glow
and return to it and come home tonight
from their long and weary trek.
For years, the candle was lit,
but sadly, it shines no more.
Love broke the lonely heart
when they never came home.
Now all you can hear is a lonesome whistle
when the wind blows cold at night.
It has replaced that warm glow
of that single candle light.
