Love Unspoken
yesterday
a tear caught
the sun [whole]
[and] rolled down
your cheek [tumbling]
as we drove
[at speed] along
the M31
transfixed in that
moment [etched]
now in my mind
[immortalised]
in my heart
sealed [memory]
that tenderest of
trysts [our secret]
as you bared your
deepest groanings
[longing]
mourning
your greatest loss
this side of heaven
as I wiped [with fingertips]
wetness [touched]
from your face
I could be no
more nearer you
beside you [offering]
devout friendship
you are my friend
caught in that moment
what strangeness
of having little else
to give other than be
by your side [always]
no wise words to speak
no comfort to unworded
dissolution
but to keep a steady hand
on the wheel and drive
toward the rest of our lives
the music blaring and
our chests heaving
[why is it that when
your friend's heart breaks
your heart breaks along? ]
horizon receding, re-emerging
until i pull the handbrake
in front of your house [and stop]

Soon As My Heart Breaks
Soon as my heart breaks
Soon as my mind starts telling me
That Ive had enough
That Ive given all Ive got to you
With nothing in return
Soon as my heart breaks
Soon as my soul stops aching for you
Then Ill be alright
Maybe I can sleep the night
Knowing that Im free again
But how can I walk on knowing youre the only one I need
Cant you see me
Soon as my heart breaks
Soon as I hide the tears I cry
That youll will never know
Holding back the side of me
That longs to leave but cant let go
And how can I move on knowing your love is the one I need
Cant you see m
Cause if my heart breaks
Ill have to find the strength
To say the words goodbye
Soon as my heart breaks

Saint Augustine In Hell
If somebody up there likes me somebody up there cares
Deliver me from evil save me from these wicked snares
Not into temptation, not to cliffs to fall
On to revelation, and lesson for us all
She walked into the room on the arm of my best friend
I knew whatever happened our friendship would end
Chemical reaction, desire at first sight
Mystical attraction, turned out all my lights
The minute I saw her face the second I caught her eye
The minute I touched the flame I knew it would never die
The minute I saw her face the second I caught her eye
The minute I touched the flame I knew it would never die
I dont know if its pain or pleasure that I seek
My flesh was all too willing, my spirit guide was weak
I was deadly certain thoughts for me werent kind
A switchblade in his pocket, murder on his mind
Blessed st. theresa the whore of babylon
Madonna and my mother all rolled into one
Youve got to understand me, Im not a piece of wood
Francis of assisi could never be this good
The minute I saw her face the second I caught her eye
The minute I touched the flame I knew it would never die
The minute I saw her face the second I caught her eye
The minute I touched the flame I knew it would never die
Relax, have a cigar, make yourself at home. hell is full of high court
Judges, failed saints. weve got cardinals, archbishops, barristers,
Certified accountants, music critics, theyre all here. youre not alone.
Youre never alone, not here youre not. ok breaks over.
The less I need the more I get
Make me chaste but not just yet
Its a promise or a lie Ill repent before I die
The minute I saw her face the second I caught her eye
The minute I touched the flame I knew it would never die
The minute I saw her face the second I caught her eye
The minute I touched the flame I knew it would never die

Waiting For Your Love
Hands, dont let her go, cause then the midnight icy winds will blow
Eyes, give every drop, this aint the way that shouldve made her stop
Arms, just let her know, no one fills the place she used to grow
Smile, dont leave me now, cos youre the reason shes here anyhow
Words, be gentle when you speak into her heart
cos if it breaks, she may not come again
Chorus:
Ive been waitin for your love and its been here all the time
Right in front of me
Ive been sittin, waitin for your love, and all the time its been here
Right in front of me
Look, forget your pride, she might kiss as youre like even tide
Song, be in her heart, especially when were apart
Love, be by my side, cos if she leaves there aint no place to hide
Soul, be with her now, cos youre the first one she knew anyhow
Words, be gentle when you speak into her heart
cos if it breaks, she may not come again
Chorus
(instrumental break)
Words be gentle when you speak into her heart
cos if it breaks, she may not come again
Ive been sittin, waitin for your love, and all the time its been here
Right in front of me
Draw the line, Ill step across, even further I give in, you got me, yeah
Ive been sittin, waitin for your love, and all the time its been here
Right in front of me, yeah
Just separated by ten thousand miles, youre not alone, girl you got me, yeah
Guess I neednt tell you that Im not around, Im inside, you got me, yeah
Ive been waitin for your love, its been here all the time
Right in front of me

Betrayal
How can one fathom
A person to be true
In what they say
In what they do
You believe
Every thing they do
You embrace them with love
You give them your trust
You think you really know them
Only to learn its not the truth
Your heart breaks
When your faced with all
The decite and all the lies
Perhapes thats
All they really know
And it breaks your heart in two
Somewhere deep inside
The soul just needs a friend
To rely on and trust in
To help them in their hour of need
But what you think is their love
and what you think is their trust
Only turns out to be Betrayal
That breaks your heart in two
Do you stand next to them
Even though they turn away
Do you try and reach out to them
Will they even reach your helping hand
Who knows what they think
Or what they mean is truth
Ill just wait here in the background
To be a friend in need
And hope that they can see
They have a friend in me

No Secret Friend
I have a secret friend
No it's not what you think
My friend's not a secret
Nor is the secrets he keeps
You see he keeps his heart
On the table with me
But the rest of the world
It's secrets they see
My no secret friend
wears a joker's mask
But I can see the truth
the real, the past
My no secret friend says
his intentions are true
My no secret friend says
he has feelings for me
Does my no secret friend
have secret desires
Time will tell but till then
this moment is ours

A Tried Friend, A True Friend
A friend for you and a friend for me,
A friend to understand;
To cheer the way and help the day
With heart as well as hand:
With heart as well as hand, my dear,
And share the things we 've planned
A tried friend, a true friend,
A friend to understand!
A friend for you and a friend for me,
A friend to hear our call,
When, wrong or right, we wage the fight
With backs against the wall!
With backs against the wall, my dear,
When hope is like to fall
A tried friend, a true friend,
A friend to hear our call!
A friend for you and a friend for me,
To share with us that day
When our ship comes back and naught we lack
Of all for which men pray!
Of all for which men pray, my dear,
That long has gone astray
A tried friend, a true friend,
To share with us that day!
Oh, side by side, on roads untried,
Two souls may better speed
Than one who goes the road he knows
With none to give him heed!
With none to give him heed, my dear,
And help when there is need
A tried friend, a true friend,
A friend, a friend indeed!

Heart To Heart
(Emmylouy HarrisPaul Kennerley)
Heart to heart we'll hold together
Hand in hand we'll find a way
Oh, the storms of life may blind us
But with the loving vows that bind us
Heart to heart hand in hand we'll stay
Side by side forever and always
Day by day till our lives are done
This sweet love is ours to treasure
Far beyond all time and measure
Side by side day by day as one
The years connot take what's between you and me
We'll stand her together for the whole world to see
Heart to heart there'll be no other
Hand in hand for our love is true
Oh, the words that we have spoken
Will be a promise never broken
Heart to heart hand in hand with you

Don’t Slip Away
Men slip away, being made of dust; slip away from the rest of us.
Slip away from the Body of Christ, right back into their former life.
All teaching seems to be in vain, when in Truth they don’t remain.
But if embraced with all their heart, they will remain from the start.
Simple head belief for many friend, shall come to a slippery end.
As winds of doctrine tend to sway, minds of believers every day.
Some may fall completely away, others may come back to stay.
Once you truly believe in Christ, you my friend will be His for life.
God my friend is greater than all, from His hand, no man can fall.
And Christ let us understand, no one can pluck us from His hand.
But you can walk away from Him, if you are mastered by your sin.
But if you are truly Born Again, you won’t leave His side my friend.
If you’re a believer and you stray, Jesus will help you find your way,
Right back to the Savior’s side, through The Spirit who lives inside.
Christ will not lose any my friend; He’s always with them to the end.
Superintending from His Throne, Christ will see us all safety home.
Christ will guide you from within, as He guards your heart from sin,
Friend, you can have assurance too, for our Lord also died for you.
And the moment that you believe, The Holy Spirit you shall receive.
So today take Christ into your heart, and from you He won’t depart.

Friendship IXX
And a youth said, "Speak to us of Friendship."
Your friend is your needs answered.
He is your field which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving.
And he is your board and your fireside.
For you come to him with your hunger, and you seek him for peace.
When your friend speaks his mind you fear not the "nay" in your own mind, nor do you withhold the "ay."
And when he is silent your heart ceases not to listen to his heart;
For without words, in friendship, all thoughts, all desires, all expectations are born and shared, with joy that is unacclaimed.
When you part from your friend, you grieve not;
For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence, as the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain.
And let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.
For love that seeks aught but the disclosure of its own mystery is not love but a net cast forth: and only the unprofitable is caught.
And let your best be for your friend.
If he must know the ebb of your tide, let him know its flood also.
For what is your friend that you should seek him with hours to kill?
Seek him always with hours to live.
For it is his to fill your need, but not your emptiness.
And in the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures.
For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.

Love Of My Life
You are the only one who can take my breath away
For the rest of my life, I need you by my side,
My love to you still feels like on the first day
You are the queen of my heart
You are the love of my life
You are the love of my life
You are the key to survive
I need you by my side, every day, every night
I swear I love you
You are the love of my life
You are the key to survive
Wherever you go, I just want you to know
Stay here in my life
Sun always shines when you're near
Sharing your secrets my dear
You are the one I need
Without you I can't breathe
Give me one moment in time
I wish you'll always be mine
Nothing that I wouldn't do
You know I guide you through
You're the one that I love
Send from heaven above
You are the queen of my heart
Every breath that I take
Every move that I make
All is for you, worth the wait
I picture your face in my hands
Hoping this love never ends
I will be by your side
For the rest of my life
Give me one moment in time
I wish you'll always be mine
Live for each moment a day
And I hear myself pray

A Friend
A friend is someone whose arms reach out
far beyond their reach,
to comfort a troubled soul,
and help them through their troubled times.
A friend is someone who always freely gives,
expecting nothing in return,
and is always there
whenever the need may arise.
A friend is someone who cares from the heart.
Who will stand by your side
whenever the troubles start.
A friend is someone whose face may never be seen,
but whose touch is always felt
and their words always
comfort your ailing soul.
A friend is someone who will never criticize,
but will listen to a troubled mind
without complaining.
A friend is someone who is all these,
and so much more.
Someone who will never ignore you,
but will always have the time.

Im a Man In Love
Some called me the fool of the fools,
To shout your name my lungs out,
To walk on thorns to reach your hand,
To swim the deepest depths to get to you,
To jump the highest heights to be with you,
Im not a fool, Im a man in love
Some called me the coward of the cowards,
To hang the boots and pursue love,
To go on knees for the moment with you,
To dropp a tear for a woman,
To let the arrow pass through my heart,
To surrender my heart in battle for love,
Im not a coward, Im a man in love
Some called me the charmer of the charmers,
To woo a woman of high vestige,
To be loved by a woman of pronounced nobility,
To have the heart of a woman of great modesty,
To be in that moment where all men longs for,
To rest in the comfort of a lady,
I have no charm, Im a man in love
Some called me the weak of the weakest,
To drown and be flooded in bucket of water,
To be heated and melted by the sun,
To fall on top of a chair be hurt,
To forget what I heard a second ago,
Im not weak, Im a man in love
Some called me the hero of heroes,
To fight for it and never give in,
To defend it always and never give up,
To hold on to it and never let go,
To stand for it and it alone,
Yet im not a hero, Im a man in love
Some called me the wise of the wisest,
To write her a poem and never tire,
To utter words that make love to her,
To speak what makes her shed a tear,
The expressions that make her feel loved,
Im not wise, Im a man in love

Caught in a Moment
Were I ever more enthralled
In that moment I caught her full beauty
That soul, that heart, that spirited nature
The way she carried herself
The look in the eye, a glare transfixed
The curl of a smile like a hook holding
I fell victim to all she possessed
And in me she could claim all
For never before had I felt like this
More drawn to such beauty
That I saw before the body and face
A nature, a spirit, a heart to behold
A mind to challenge my own
I had felt the pining of strong desire
Known full well the sting of lust
False love and false declarations
But this, nothing like this
I had never been more enthralled
In the moment I caught her full beauty

What's A Friend?
Friend is someone who knows our emotions and feelings
That know our ideas and opinions
And that don't surprise us acting in a bad way
Friend is who knows your difficulties, and helps overcome them
Friend is somebody who don't interpret in a bad way nor make bad judgement
Nor condemn, criticize, disdain, underestimate, spurn,
Devalue, contempt, humillate, reject...
Friend is who give you joy, doing it arrives until your heart
Friend is someone who is by our side
In each possible moments
Friend is someone who take care of us
And defend us always we are in danger
Amigo don't pay attention to the differences
For a Friend what matter is to have someone who can to share each triumph
Friend is who listen to your favorite music being with you
Enjoying each second you spend together
A Friend helps organize a party at your home
And he helps you to clean, as well, all the mess
A real Friend is loyal and sincere
He's somebody who comprehends you
He accepts you as you are and have confidence on you
Who without envy recognize your personal and intelectual value
He stimulates you and praises you without thinking a second thought
Who don't give excuses for not help you
Friend really helps you without to ask something in return
And he don't abuse of your kindness
Who with wise advices help to construct
And to perfect your Personality
Friend is who don't hurt you
And don't make you to fault on pourpose
Friend is who rises you
When you are fallen and without enthusiasm
Who cares about you
And give you the thoughtful attention
And who helps you to heal you pains
This is really your Friend
A real Friend don't offends you
Nor treats you with insults
And don't injuries you
Nor maltreat in front of someone
A genuine Friend leads you through a good way
And he is, himself, to you, the Light into a immense ocean of darkness
Friend is somebody who holds his hand out in any situation
Friend is who assists you in each moment

Move Your Feet
You are the only one who can take my breath away
Like they say time flies when you're having fun
My love to you still feels like on the first day

Sun always shines when you're near

Cried picture your face in my hands
Hope that this love never ends
I would be by your side
For the rest of my life
Give me one moment in time
I wish you'll always be mine
Live for each moment a day
And I heal my suffering

Wherever you go I just want you to know

For Meggie In Friendship
There is a young woman,
who lives so far away from me;
if she lived closer,
I could give her a big hug.
We came across one another,
not very long ago,
since then she has touched
my heart and soul
with her poems and prayers.
She held out the hand of friendship
as I held mine out to her,
we both accepted gratefully,
and two distant lives were touched
from half way a world away.
That bond of friendship gets stronger
with every poem and prayer that we write.
Maybe we will never meet in person,
but that does not matter at all.
Because through our words
the world has shrunk,
and it is as if she
is living right next door.
That if we reached out
our hands would touch
as our words have done before.
This poem was written
in friendship for a very special friend
Meggie Gultiano.

I Found A Few Old Letters
XIV
I found a few old letters of mine carefully hidden in thy box—a few small toys for thy memory to play with. With a timorous heart thou didst try to steal these trifles from the turbulent stream of time which washes away planets and stars, and didst say, “These are only mine!” Alas, there is no one now who can claim them—who is able to pay their price; yet they are still here. Is there no love in this world to rescue thee from utter loss, even like this love of thine that saved these letters with such fond care?
O woman, thou camest for a moment to my side and touched me with the great mystery of the woman that there is in the heart of creation—she who ever gives back to God his own outflow of sweetness; who is the eternal love and beauty and youth; who dances in bubbling streams and sings in the morning light; who with heaving waves suckles the thirsty earth and whose mercy melts in rain; in whom the eternal one breaks in two in joy that can contain itself no more and overflows in the pain of love.

Party Heart
B. bryant
Youve got a party heart, a gay time party heart
Youre only happy when the partys going on
And it makes me sad because I know that partys have to end
And when this partys over, youll be gone
I love your party heart your playful party heart
But though you make me laugh you also make me cry
Cos I know you only think of me as just a party friend
And when the partys done youll say goodbye
A playtime girl like you plays lots of thrills in life it seems
But oh, what Id ever give to be the playboy of your dreams
Id tame your party heart, your fickle party heart
And someday thats just what some party boy will do
But I love you so, I guess that Ill cry just as much as you
When someone breaks your party heart in two
When someone breaks your party heart in two
When someone breaks your party heart in two....

A Kiss Without Commitment
A kiss without commitment's
Like a flower without the rain
It only leads to pain
And it fills my heart with emptiness
Your touch without commitment's
Like a calm before the storm
The tears are starting to form in my eyes
When I kissed you I was curious
The child that I was
I never realised I would love you so
And in the magic of the moment
I was swept to the side
And I saw your heart
So small and tender
Physical is fine
But I cannot avoid the pain
I'm like an express train
As I surge towards the mountains
I am certain as I'm livin'
I cannot do this again
We're much too greater friends
To play games
When I kissed you it was
Everything I dreamed it would be
But I never dreamed it would mean so much to me
And our friendship is too valuable to carelessly lose
So today I choose
To really love you
Jessica your heart is
Like a newly budding rose
Expanding as she grows
Your petals have been bruised
But you have so much love to give
And it's so beautiful to see
You're beautiful to me, my friend
And when I kissed you
I believed it wouldn't get in the way
I want to stay your friend and have it fine
And I'm hoping that our God can make great things of our lives
His love survives
The greatest struggles
Jessica your gate is open, nothing in your way
A friend you'll always stay to me
Whatever else we're gonna be
A friend
You'll always stay to me

Unexpected
I was talking to you on the phone for very long on, which makes me happy because
It been two years since I heard your voice
It's not same without you here
You are living in Orlando to go college
I can't wait to see you soon when you come done for Thanksgiving break
Unexpected
I change to a bad girl by sneaking out of house after you text that you want to see me
I have so much mixed emotions, and I don't know how I feel right now
As I was walking down the street in the middle of the night, you call me and my heart start beating fast
You stop your car right in front of me, so you can come out to hug me and it all feels so right
You sitting in your car, holding my hand, smiling way you do, and looking me in my eyes as we talk
I forget how mad I was
When we talk and catch up about our life, it makes me realized how much you have change
I feel like nothing could go wrong
Then we drove around to have time of our life
I rather be there with you and no one else
We did crazy things in the car and act like no one else is around
We finally park somewhere quiet and ten minutes later we have fight about stupid stuff
That made me walks away from you in the first place
You drove me home and few words were spoken
Unexpected
You said wait when I about to leave because you want a hug and I was confused
It's really over or it wasn't?
The next day, I talk to my friend who I haven't heard in awhile
She found out that you were lying to me
You are back with your ex and cheating on her with me
I can't believe you lied to me
How can I ever trust you again?
Tell me that you never cheat and is your friend's cousin who does it
You will never change
You always be that guy who breaks my heart
I never want to speak to you or never ever want to see you again
I though give you a second change means that everything will be different this time
It wasn't and always going be way I left
I am one putting all the effort to give us another try, but
Unexpected
You won't do the same and said you want to, and lied again
I am being strong and not crying for someone who doesn't care for me
I have to go and get off your train
All I have left of you is smell you left on my clothes when you hug me
Unexpected
