Home (For Your Holiness)
your body,
not a set of apartments
for your desires,
but a home for your holiness!
treat it as such.
let your desires be controlled
by your heart...
warm your heart
by the fire of your convictions!

You Set My Desires On Fire
You set my desires on fire.
With a wish to kiss your lips.
With a wish to hold you close,
'Likethis'
You set my desires on fire.
Brimming to the rim,
With a passion that is within!
And to feel your warm embrace.
As we touch with your hair,
And cheek against my face.
Longing as I do,
To have you fill this empty place...
In every space you wish,
To plant your tenderness!
You set my desires on fire.
Dormant they have been...
But no longer do I keep them undenied!

Desire…few Facets
(a re-post)
ripples of wanton
desires whirl in
a whimsical heart
whims of desires
whisper naggingly into
a winding heart
wily desires
wretched desires
waltz unabashedly
the wearied mind
simply stands
witness to the
woeful rigmarole…

Everything Your Heart Desires
Music by daryl hall / lyrics by daryl hall
You say you cant stand to be
Tied so close to a lover
Ooh you feel like a prisoner
And you wanna find someone who will let you out
Cant you see the heartbeat that you know so well
Is better than some strange one youre looking for
Say you never know that strange one just might be me
Cant you see -
You have everything your heart desires
So why dyou want more
If you had everything your heart desired
Would you still want more
You have everything your heart desires
Why dyou wont more
If you have everything your heart desires
Oh baby will you still want more
You tell me your best friends world seems beautiful
But dont be fooled
Its nice work if you can get it
What goes on behind closed doors you dont know
Maybe she cries herself to sleep every nite
Sorry that the heartbeat that she knows so well
Aint what shes looking for
Say you never know that strange heart just might be me
Cant you see -
You have everything your heart desires
So why dyou want more
If you had everything your heart desired
Would you still wand more
You have everything your heart desires
Why dyou want more
If you have everything your heart desires
Will you still want more
Maybe youll confess
Girl youll see
If you want.the world
Think of me
No words can help
Dont be sad
cause baby what you want is what you have

Into The Fire
Life - thin as a thread
Sometimes youre lucky
Sometimes youre better off dead
Your first breath is taken and in to the world you are cast
You long for tomorrow while living each day as your last
Well I know what your heart desires
But you cant take it with you
Into the fire
Now youve done all you can
Your lifes at the crossroads
You watch as it slips through your hands
So stand on the mountain and shout in vain at the sky
But nobody hears you - the words only echo inside
Oh shelter the flame - it may expire
Risin up from the ashes
Into the fire
Just hold on to your life down to the wire
Oh out from the dragons jaws
Into the fire
Theres a moment in every mans life
When he must decide what is wrong and whats right
You could wait for your dreams to come true
But time has no mercy
Time wont stand still for you
Well I know what your heart desires
Crawlin out from the wreckage
Into the fire
Here I go...into the fire
I know...what your heart desires

Desires Never Die
Desires never die
One fulfills
New arrives
No one is ever
Satisfied
Without contentment
Life becomes a
Punishment
Endless desires
Need to be controlled
Remain contended
In what you have got
Limit the desires
Reduce the needs
Remain happy
Throughout the life

I Choose Fire
If you forget the road once traveled
And turn from your desires
I shan’t travel with you dear
For my heart still burns with fire
And if you wipe the memories clean
And forsake the whispering wind
The journey you must go alone
For I won’t hold your hand
If you give your heart to sorrow
Refusing to see the light
In silence you shall stumble on
As I’ll renounce the fight
And if you walk the path alone
Rejecting my warm embrace
Then you have surely made your mind
And I’ll give up the chase
If you stand out in the cold
Offering naught but ice and snow
Worry not that I will freeze
For I have let you go
I will never beg you dear
Nor plead for your desires
Though you may choose to go alone
I, my dear…choose fire

ana's song
Please die Ana
For as long as you're here we're not
You make the sound of laughter
and sharpened nails seem softer
And I need you now somehow
And I need you now somehow
Open fire on the needs designed
On my knees for you
Open fire on my knees desires
What I need from you
I'magine pageant
In my head the flesh seems thicker
Sandpaper tears corrode the film
And I need you now somehow
And I need you now somehow
Open fire on the needs designed
On my knees for you
Open fire on my knees desires
What I need from you
And you're my obsession
I love you to the bones
And Ana wrecks your life
Like an Anorexia life
Open fire on the needs designed
On my knees for you
Open fire on my knees desires
What I need from you
Open fire on the needs designed
Open fire on my knees desires
On my knees for you

My Heart Desires To Speak
…MY HEART DESIRES TO SPEAK
Greetings from the abyss of my heart
Hail queen of my empire
In my excursion down the memory lane
My heart desires to revert to that superb day
I fell head over heels in love with you queen bee
That day your heart-stoppingly beauty invaded my thoughts
Your scent a surprise a faint exotic blend
Of tropical flowers was and is
Your smile veiled suggestions of more to come
For you tones of love I will surely vomit
My heart desires to verbalize
Of the preparations I had to hunt for your love signature
I rehearsed to perfection how to vomit facts before you
I was truly humbled by your manners
My train of thought
Stopped on your striking angelic beauty
Dug from the womb of gracefulness
Soon interpersonal chemistry between us became right
I was lost in your Ice Kingdom
Yes my heart desires to speak
Of your knee- weakening, strength-sapping kisses
Your eyes smoky with desire
Your melting, sexy voice
Sharp like French horn that pitches low in my subconscious
You extinguish the burning desires of my body
Smile my heart
With the self satisfied air
Of someone in possession of a wonderful secret
In time of strong currents
Your bright face like a rising sun
Oozes rivers of solace in my heart
You embrace and curdle me when my times turn gray
Come and coil around my waist my Christmas morning
For my heart desires to speak.

Desire
Northern star
Am I frightened
Where can I go to rest
I cant sleep
And Im still fighting
Wait, dont breathe
The time destroys a man
A child who understands
That anyone who desires
Is not my kind
Not my truth
Fade away, its all we do
Fade away from the truth
Desires
Fade away
Desires
Fade away
Desires
And northern star
Please enlighten
The lost prayers of my soul
Childhood dreams
Of death and titans
We were meant to be free
To give ourselves away
So please dont be afraid
Of anyone who desires
Theyre not my kind
Not my truth
Fade away, its all we do
Fade away from the truth
Desires
Fade away
Desires
Fade away
Desires
Fade away
Desires
cause anyone who desires
Is not my kind
I have no use for you

nomadic desires
vagrant desires
kleptomaniac desires
splurging desires
hide behind a

how and when
they surface

Heart On Fire
Two wrongs don't make a right.
Hindsight is 20/20.
Wisdom comes from mistakes.
I know I've made plenty.
It's the blind leading the blind.
We walk into the same wall.
You better look before you leap.
'Cause every rise has it's fall.
Chorus:
The sky's the limit.
So it's time to look up.
If your running on empty.
He'll fill your cup.
He knows your wants.
He knows your desires.
Let him ignite your life.
And set your heart on fire.
Who do you serve?
Or does He serve you?
Was it you alone,
That made your dreams come true?
Look a gift horse in the mouth.
If you want to get bit.
Cheaters never prosper.
Winners never quit.
Chorus:
The sky's the limit.
So it's time to look up.
If your running on empty.
He'll fill your cup.
He knows your wants.
He knows your desires.
Let him ignite your life.
And set your heart on fire.
You can't seek the answer.
If you're always looking down.
It's like trying to find 3 wise men.
In a room full of clowns.
When you play with fire.
You will surely get burned.
It's not about what you lost,
But it's about what you learned.
Chorus X 2
The sky's the limit.
So it's time to look up.
If your running on empty.
He'll fill your cup.
He knows your wants.
He knows your desires.
Let him ignite your life.
And set your heart on fire.

Sehnsucht
Whence are ye, vague desires,
Which carry men along,
However proud and strong;
Which, having ruled to-day,
To-morrow pass away?
Whence are ye, vague desires?
Whence are ye?
Which women, yielding to,
Find still so good and true;
So true, so good to-day,
To-morrow gone away.
Whence are ye, vague desires?
Whence are ye?
From seats of bliss above,
Where angels sing of love;
From subtle airs around,
Or from the vulgar ground,
Whence are ye, vague desires?
Whence are ye?
A message from the blest,
Or bodily unrest;
A call to heavenly good,
A fever in the blood
What are ye, vague desires?
What are ye?
Which men who know you best
Are proof against the least,
And rushing on to-day,
To-morrow cast away.
What are ye, vague desires?
What are ye?
Which women, ever new,
Still warned, surrender to;
Adored with you to-day,
Then cast with you away,
What are ye, vague desires?
What are ye?
Which unto boyhood’s heart
The force of man impart,
And pass, and leave it cold,
And prematurely old,
What are ye, vague desires?
What are ye?
Which, tremblingly confest,
Pour in the young girl’s breast
Joy, joy, the like is none,
And leave her then undone,
What are ye, vague desires?
What are ye?
Ah yet! though man be marred,
Ignoble made, and hard;
Though broken women lie
In anguish down to die;
Ah yet! ye vague desires,
Ah yet!
By Him who gave you birth,
And blended you with earth,
Was some good end designed
For man and womankind;
Ah yet! ye vague desires,
Ah yet!
The petals of to-day,
To-morrow fallen away,
Shall something leave instead,
To live when they are dead;
When you, ye vague desires,
Have vanished;
A something to survive,
Of you though it derive
Apparent earthly birth,
But of far other worth
Than you, ye vague desires,
Than you.

A Glassy Home For Us
Did you know my love?
I've built a home there inside my heart
Though I know my love
Never again you'll come
But the heart is lost in love
How can I tell him not to love,
How can I snatch out of my breast this poor heart of mine
For your love my heart beats
Than ill die
Tell me may you can heal the pain of my heart
Without you my life is alone
Tell me my love would you come once again home?
It has been centuries since you've gone I'm lost in love alone
If I've had the chance just to see your face again
Even though you're away
It would be enough believe me I swear
Since you've gone my love for you still the same, it never changed
The one who leaves and forgets about the love
It would not change or ease the love for the one who stays there alone broken in love
The lover heart cries there alone among the flames of love
You were always there In my dreams near the seaside I've built a glassy home for you and me
Beside the seaside surrounded with white desires
I've arranged our home like you would like it to be
I've bared it from the lies like paradise
And have hid you inside inside the home of my heart
So no one can see your eyes just me and my eyes
There in paradise
My eyes
Do you remember my love those days when we were crazy in love
How many times we've built a home with our purple desires
But the next day you've gone away for what and where I never knew for what and you've forgotten about our purple desire
But I'm still there yet the love never deserted my heart
Do you know my love I have you inside my heart
My. Purple dreams are still in love
Oh with those green charming eyes

My World
I have a dream world for my own
I always fly there all alone
It makes me feel I'm back home
There my pain gets paralysed
There my eyes never cries
So long ago the value of my dreams I've realized
No place ever can be more magic full of delights
Like walking upon fire and ice
There revive my heart desires
There I never get hurt its like being in paradise
When I'm there every single emotion of mine gets inspired
Every minute I spend there forever will stay memorized
As charming as your eyes
That's why there I can spend a life Where the memory of your eyes survives
Away from haters eyes near to hearts
My soul sings free love songs and takes flight
There is the only place that my heart desires never get criticized.

Alone
Open your heart for those
Their heart are sweetened with love
Pour them to your heart
Let them there to fill your heart With hop
and sweet desires
Nothing but love can take away your lone
Summer days once again came,
Alas, in vain full of pain
Unfortunately through vainly dirges
Summer days have passed alone
Leaving here all their pain
The loneliness still surrounded my heart
Every time when my best friend night
comes out He takes away my loneliness
even for a whiles
What stays there when the love is gone
The loneliness the shadows of smiles
The memories are gazing around
One by one are chasing each other
With woeful laughter and cry Cradling
upon the fire of my heart
Those heart desires with smiling faces
Mockingly are shaking their hands Ending
up there somewhat somewhere
The days are long when you're alone
Nothingness became the miserable
empire here and there, everywhere
Emptiness is the handsome prince of my
soul.

To manifest your hearts desires you must BE what your heart desires.
Sex hunger has rebirth.
Those who fell in my arm
Were never by heart warm,
Nor active in bed to warm,
With eyes on fear or alms.
Those who fell in love with
Me, put in me their heart
But refused to share with
Their parts, warned by guilt.
Had one such fallen with me,
How warm I would have been!
How warm I would have made!
We might be hunger-less.
Now the time is over.
Wills for women persist.
Their love for me ceases.
Hungry sex is the bane.
Shall I be born again?
Yes, I shall, nay I should.
Script says one is reborn
Whose desires weren’t burnt.

Let these be your desires
Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself
But if your love and must needs have desires,
Let these be your desires:
To melt and be like a running brook
That sings its melody to the night.
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.
To wake at dawn with a winged heart
And give thanks for another day of loving;
To rest at the noon hour and meditate love's ecstasy;
To return home at eventide with gratitude;
And then to sleep with a prayer
For the beloved in your heart
And a song of praise upon your lips.
