Dodging Life
Dodging life for fantasies are not realistic...
But yet goes on.
Wanting to be comforted by things we pick...
Goes on and on.
And the getting upset with regrets that are kept...
Goes on and on.
With a craving that stays forever.
With an appetite changing never.
Dodging life for fantasies are not realistic...
But yet goes on.
Wanting to be comforted by things we pick...
Goes on and on.
And the getting upset with regrets that are kept...
Goes on and on.
With a craving that stays forever.
With an appetite changing never.
Dodging life to only get what is liked and wished...
Goes on and on.
With a holding on we hope is strong,
To keep with us...
Forever!
With an appetite changing never.
Dodging life for fantasies are not realistic...
But yet goes on.
To select with a holding on...
And kept,
Forever!

Never Satisfied
Where do we go from here
There must be something near
Changing you, changing me forever
Places changes, faces change
Life is so very strange
Changing time, changing rhyme together
Theres no where else to go
This could be our last show
Changing dreams, changing schemes never
We are never satisfied
Love is gone, along with fun
Now were reaching for the gun
Changing cast, changing fast, no more tether
We are never satisfied

5:15
Im changing trains
This little town
Let me down
This foreign rain
Brings me down

Train overdue
Angels have gone
No ticket
Im jumping tracks
Im changing towns
We never talk anymore
Forever I will adore you
5:15
All of my life
Angels have gone
Im changing trains
Angels like them
Thin on the ground
All of my life
All legs and wings
Strange sandy eyes

Train overdue
Angels have gone
We never talk anymore
Forever I will adore you
Cold station
All of my life
Forever Im out here forever

Right Before Your Eyes
When the door shuts
Don't worry about me
Its not attention that I want from you
I need you to trust who I'm gonna be
And in everything I'm going to do
Cause I'm not afraid
Of what I don't know
For understanding is all that I earn
What is for sure is I'm gonna to go
I'm gonna to live and I'm going to learn
And I know there will be mistakes that I will make
But I know they're not worse than chances I don't take, take
Right before your eyes I am changing, changing
New life on the inside I am changing, changing
When the door shuts
Its shuts in front of me
A new person that I have become
I follow my heart to my destiny
But living in fear and sorrow is done
There will be no more feeling that I'm all alone
I will surround myself with things that help me grow, grow
Right before your eyes I am changing, changing
New life on the inside I am changing, changing
Right before your eyes I am changing, changing
New life on the inside I am changing, changing
Right before your eyes I am changing, changing
New life on the inside I am changing, changing
Right before your eyes
Right before your eyes

Together Forever
(stock/aitken/waterman)
If theres anything you need
All you have to do is say
You knew you satisfy everything in me
We shouldnt waste a single day
So dont stop me falling
Its destiny calling
A power I just cant deny
Its never changing
Cant you hear me, Im saying
I want you for the rest of my life
* together forever and never to part
Together forever we two
And dont you know
I would move heaven and earth
To be together forever with you
If they ever get you down
Theres always something I can do
Because I wouldnt ever wanna see you frown
Ill always do whats best for you
There aint no mistaking
Its true love were making
Something to last for all time
Its never changing
Cant you hear me, Im saying
I want you for the rest of my life
(* repeat)
So dont stop me falling
Its destiny calling
A power I just cant deny
Its never changing
Cant you hear me, Im saying
I want you for the rest of my life
(* repeat)

Forever Young
(b. dylan)
May God bless
And keep you always
May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others
And let others do for you
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb every road
And may you stay forever young
May you grow up to be righteous
May you grow up to be true
May you always know the truth
And see the light surrounding you
May you always be gracious
Stand upright and be strong
And may you stay
Stay forever young
Forever young
Forever young
May you stay forever young
May your hands always be busy
May your feet always be swift
May you have a strong foundation
With the winds changing shift
May your heart always be joyful
May your song always be sung
And may you stay
Forever young
Forever young
Stay forever young
Stay forever young
Stay
Stay forever young
Forever young
Forever young
Stay forever young

Life
Life is full of surprises
It might be joy today and sorrow tomorrow,
Life is so unpredictable
you never know when you would land in trouble,
Expect the unexpected anytime
as the path of our life would not always be fine,
If things are going good today, dont worry, enjoy it, as it wont stay forever
If things are going bad, dont worry either, as it wont stay forever,
As the saying goes 'nothing stays forever, everything passes by'
Everything in life is temporary
Darkness of the night or brightness of the day,
That is the secret of life
Live life kingsize and always be Happy Healthy and Wise.

The Guilt
I still look upon the stars
They're still forever changing and rearranging.
A musical collaboration.
A fantastic sensation and it is with out you.
Oh how I wish I could undo the things I have said and done to you.
It's all my fault.
I'll take all the blame hand to god.
Every time you cried I claim it as my own.
And now I'm living a shallow life all alone.
Their is some things you just can't condone.
I still look upon the stars
They're still forever changing and rearranging.
A musical collaboration.
A fantastic sensation and it is with out you.
To move on is so hard.
Love has retarded all my movements.
Slow has slow can be.
A distinguished defeat.
A gallant retreat.
Is never full of such deceit.
I still look upon the stars
They're still forever changing and rearranging.
A musical collaboration.
A fantastic sensation and it is with out you.
The people have spoken.
Capital punishment for a capital crime.
Maybe not in your eyes.
But most certainly in mine.
Grinding the steel down to tip so fine.
A brutal way to inflict the pain.
I do this to myself in your name.
I still look upon the stars
They're still forever changing and rearranging.
A musical collaboration.
A fantastic sensation and it is with out you.
How can I defend my actions.
How could I have walk down this road of hate and rage.
How can I claim to even be a poet of this day and age.
Mere ramblings that now feel so fake.
Everyone I've written was for her sake.
Everyone was just another page of mistakes.
I still look upon the stars
They're still forever changing and rearranging.
A musical collaboration.
A fantastic sensation and it is with out you.
Making another promise I can never keep.
Wounding and broken.
I'm of the god forsaken.
Please don't come near me.
I'll just hurt you.
The same as always.
I still look upon the stars
They're still forever changing and rearranging.
A musical collaboration.
A fantastic sensation and it is with out you.
Just push everybody away.
For I can no longer stand the pain.
It has driven me to the brink of insanity.
This is just a sun shiny day.
A wooers moment, but I'm no longer in that kind of mood.
What would you conclude?
I still look upon the stars
They're still forever changing and rearranging.
A musical collaboration.
A fantastic sensation and it is with out you.
Is it just another interlude to something ever greater?
Am I to be another wannabe be saviour.
I hold my petty sword and shield.
Ready to defend but to what I don't know.
I let everyone I loved go.
Burn the flag and let it wave.
For their is nothing left to save.

There Is Nothing Wrong In Wanting
It is easy to pick up and leave,
For...
Those places envisioned in one's mind,
That are traveled and far away.
So they will have a space to go...
To wallow there,
In the comfort of their sorrows.
It is easy to pick up and leave,
For...
A tomorrow out of reach.
To perceive a destiny is to chase rainbows.
Carrying with them an emptiness,
That always seem to follow!
There is nothing wrong,
In wishing for the consistency of Sunshine.
There is nothing wrong in wanting,
To be showered with gold dust all the time.
There is nothing wrong,
In avoiding clouds with hopes none will come.
There is nothing wrong in wanting a life,
With a humming forever done!
There is nothing wrong to live those dreams,
In a wishful thinking of them to be...
Continually received.
It is easy to pick up and leave,
For...
Those places envisioned in one's mind,
That are traveled and far away.
There is nothing wrong in wanting a life,
With a humming forever done!
There is nothing wrong,
In avoiding clouds with hopes none will ever come.
And yet they do.
And many refuse...
To stop and accept what is done.
Preferring they do instead for them,
Is a life that is on the run.

With No Regrets That Can Take My Breath
Oh...
I am a fighter!
With a decision made long ago,
How it was I will live my life.
On my terms.
Knowing I would have to sacrifice.
I have had no doubts about it.
And will do what I feel is right,
For me.
With a living of my life to be,
My own.
I've turned away from those things I can't use.
I've turned away those things I refuse.
I've turned away from everyday headaches.
I've turned away from anything petty,
To get me fed up and upset.
I've turned away from anything petty.
I've turned away from everyday headaches.
I've turned away those things I refuse.
I've turned away from those things I can't use.
Oh...
I am a fighter!
And will do what I feel is right,
For me.
I've turned away from anything petty.
I've turned away from everyday headaches.
I've turned away those things I refuse.
I've turned away from those things I can't use,
To get me fed up and upset.
Oh...
I am a fighter!
And refuse to be fed up and upset!
Oh I know that I am fighter.
And refuse to be fed up and upset!
I refuse to be fed up and upset,
With regrets that can take my breath.
Oh I know that I am a fighter.
With no regrets that can take my breath,
Away.
With no regrets that can take my breath.
With no regrets that can take my breath,
Away.
With no regrets that can take my breath.

The Solitary Soul
O Soul! Sow never any seeds of attachment
Reaping the fruits of dismay looms large
Restrict your desires for objects of no-life
For they can't deceit you with acts of detachment
Grow not your fantasies around the people you like
That makes you live for ever in a Fool's paradise
Sincere may be your expectations from the beloved
Contempt is the reward awarded for your concern
Cynical you are overwhelmed by emotions
Clinical are people in keeping you at bay
Fondness of your roaming through memory lanes
Earns you the name of eccentric for being non-realistic
Restrain the heart from craving for others!
Motives attributed for no fault of yours
Bid a farewell to your emotional bondage
To confront the coming times with wretches of solitude
This world you came with no mission specified
Nothing you achieved to boast of anything
Dumb you remained when darkness descended
Helpless you are as your dreams stand shattered
Eluded by Luck and ignored by all
Stung by failures and surrounded by hardships
Belated attempts with negated results
Prompting to choose a life of seclusion
No tears from others when your exit is forever
.
O Soul! Sow never any seeds of attachment

Forever Yours
It feels like
keeping and holding a star in the sky
born to be born again with you

I just keep on being one with you

cause in your arms, in your arms
I feel so save
forever yours, forever yours

A Friend, A Woman, A Widow, The Old One
where have we gone
on those years that dance in the music
of hushes and whispers?
those merry widows
painted their faces
as they grow into
the folds of their old age
she is one of those
who dreamed
from nipa huts to the
ice castles of her
fantasies
she thought she can
stay forever
like that... forever
but no woman stays a woman
throughout her journey
she assumes some shapes
to survive
some have turned into camels
in the arid desert
some polar bears bear the earmark
of womanhood in their cold
noses
her body knows when
the right time is right there in her mind
but there is one thing that makes the sound
of her permanence...
that she must always be free to be
...forever

Forever Now
If we could live forever
Where would our dreams lead us to
Living in a world of ever
Changing expectation
If it could be
If it could be
It would be forever now
If we could be here forever
Where in this world would heaven be
As we race across the universe
In search of confirmation
Why cant it be
Why cant it be
Why cant it be forever now
Theres no way out
There is no return
Theres no way back
Theres no way to learn
The final act
The curtain falls
On the stage
On the stage
Standing at the crossroads
Waiting for the new millennium
For if it could be
If it could be
It would be forever now
If we could live forever
Where would our dreams lead us to
Living in a childrens world
Of simple fascination
If it could be, if it could be
It would be forever now
If it could be, if it could be
It would be forever now
For if it could be
If it could be
It would be forever now
If it could be, if it could be
It would be forever now

Hopefully You Will Have No Regrets
I know you have more to do in your life,
Than to agitate and stir up fights.
Criticizing me may appease your appetite,
For the time being.
Until you notice I am not focused,
On your critique...
Or a bittersweetness you may get.
I hope that does not upset?
You'll get over it.
And hopefully you will have no regrets.
I have been accessible to those who pass judgements.
I want those like that to feel...
They too have an importance.
Something that is done that eventually appeals.
If I did not have that to rely on...
I would not make attempts to do my best!
And getting your attention,
Proves I am worthy enough to mention.
And I should relish that with zest and zeal.

If This Was 1953
If this was 1953,
And I was still beset with fantasies...
I 'might' consider your challenge to compete with me,
Seriously.
But I am at a stage of my life,
I do not seek to dine in limelight.
Or humbly bow with the receiving of applause.
It has been over sixty years my craving has been fed,
With a wiping of nervous sweat from my forehead.
And I am extremely flattered you have chosen me to pick,
As someone you believe would be interested.
But...
If this was 1953,
And I was still beset with fantasies...
I 'might' consider your challenge to compete with me,
Seriously.
But I am at a stage of my life,
I do not seek to dine in limelight.
Or humbly bow with the receiving of applause.
My priorities have been narrowed,
To the getting out of bed.
And praying with a thankfulness,
Not to feel a new pain or ache to dread.
However...
I AM honored to 'think',
You believe me someone 'you' could hoodwink.

Built To Last
Somewhere out my doorway
Somewhere down my block
I can hear her heartbeat
In rhythm with my clock
I want her more than diamonds
I want her more than gold
I want her more than anything
Anyone could hold
We were built to last
On until forever
The world is changing fast
Oh, but our love is built to last
She has followed me down
Along some empty str eets
She has followed me where
The rain would fall in sheets
And I know Ive been changing
Changing like the wind
I was feeling burned out
I got tired of it
We were built to last
On until forever
The world is chan ging fast
Oh, but our love is built to last
Woah...
Woah...
So come to me my darling
Hold me while I sleep
I know you feel lost
But youre not in too deep
We were built to last
On until forever
The world is changing fast
Oh, but our love is built to last
Yeah our love was built to last

The One Percent
They are hidden, the mythical they,
in the details of business from day to day
helping, harming, nudging, farming
ceaselessly upset by the peaceful, disarming...
Theories are useful, some men would say,
in the managing of money and planning of play
buying, selling, directing, impelling
forever content to grow fat and start smelling...
Too much excess, has spilled from our dish
and bled out our coffers for the cause of the rich
living, surviving, scheming, conniving
intent on construction by poor men depriving
Let one man stand tall, atop millions of bodies,
impressing himself with constructing lotteries
grabbing, leeching, killing, preaching
with apt disregard for his actions impeaching
The dream is still true, small men can be great
with two eyes for money and an ear out for fate
dodging, holding, playing, folding
no actions withheld til his body is molding

FALLACIES...by talile ali

I'D THINK THAT WE WERE ILL

CUT A PERSON OUT OF MY LIFE
UNFORTUNATELY I SEE IT DONE EVERY DAY OF MY LIFE
BY MY EX WIFE
WHO SHOWED MY DAUGHTERS HOW TP MISS OUT ON LIFE
