Scarletts Melancholy

What did Scarlett know;
her green velvet dress
was made from draperies.

What did Scarlett feel;
hunger
more than Brett's love?

Did Love burn like Atlanta
in her breast;
did Hope incinerate there?

Or is it that flames
don't burn
because they're already afire?

Was Brett the ice and Scarlett the flame?
Does Fire Love more than it burns?

Are we all at base visceral
and Love a luxury
which cannot compete
with green dresses
made from draperies?

Is all of this Cruel Irony
which sears
the soul
as we choose
food and soil
instead of sweet Love's face
and instead hunker down
just outside our
Forsaken Dreams;
disheveled and confused?

Too sad this tale
but bright too
because Scarlett knew
that even as she
contemplated Love's Abandonment
for Security
that green drapes
don't really cuddle at night;
and while Brett was not her love
he was Love's Embodiment
and for her
the Soul's
the only True
Nourishment.

But she was weakened
by the Plantation Dream
that Princesses
Dream
turning away
from Love's Face.

How can a Princess be
without Love or Dream?

This is Scarlett's Melancholy.

Anti-heroine

I'd planned to be Heathcliff's Cathy,
Lady Brett, Nicole or Dominique or Scarlett O'Hara.
I hadn't planned to be folding up the laundry
In uncombed hair and last night's smudged mascara,
An expert on buying Fritos, cleaning the cat box,
Finding lost sneakers, playing hide and seek.
And other things unknown to Heathcliff's
Cathy, Scarlett, Lady Brett, and Dominique.
Why am I never running through the heather?
Why am I never used by Howard Roark?
Why am I never going to Pamplona
Instead of Philadelphia and Newark?
How did I ever wind up with an Irving
When what I'd always had in mind was Rhett,
Or someone more appropriate to
Cathy, Dominique, Nicole, or Lady Brett?
I saw myself as heedless, heartless, headstrong,
An untamed woman searching for her mate.
And there he is -- with charcoal, fork, and apron,
Prepared to broil some hot dogs on the grate.
I haven't wrecked his life or his digestion
With unrequited love or jealous wrath.
He Doesn't know that secretly
I'm Scarlett, Dominique, Nicole, or Brett, or Cathy.
Why am I never cracking up in Zurich?
Why am I never languishing on moors?
Why am I never spoiled by faithful servants
Instead of spraying ant spray on the floors?
The tricycles are cluttering my foyer,
The Pop Tart crumbs are sprinkled on my soul.
And every year it's harder to be
Cathy, Dominique, Brett, Scarlett, and Nicole.

Scarlett Treat

Scarlett,
Treat me to your insights.
Your thoughts with wit,
So delight.

And Scarlett,
I must say
If not for you...
I would not feel as much encouraged,
Had not your comments
Made more sense and cleared my view!

Scarlett,
Treat me to your insights.
Your thoughts with wit,
So delight.
I just can not sit knowing you are right...
And knowing I had perhaps been wrong,
By not accepting a reflection of me,
With belief.
I see that clearly now...
Scarlett Treat.

And as I write,
High on a consciousness
I am blessed with that excites.
Thank you Scarlett for your 'wit treats'.
They have provided a wider vision,
For a mind like mine
That feeds to nourish
This mental appetite that loves to bite on wit!

Together Apart

We're together...
But apart!
Together in body,
Apart in heart.

We have grown
Out of the love
Which we had
At the start.

Only the children
Hold us together,
And the lives
We live each day.

But when you lie beside me,
In our cold bed at night,
We just lie there, together, apart,
And nothing is right.

I long for what we had,
When all that we did,
We did together,
But your heart left me,
And we only remain
Together, Apart.

Happy Birthday Scarlett (Belated)

I meant to write this yesterday,
because yesterday was your birthday.
Therefore, it’s better late than never
as the old saying says.
Now Scarlett when I first saw her name appear,
it reminded me of Scarlet O’Hara
in that famous book Gone With The Wind.
However, this Scarlett is nothing like her at all.
She is warm, friendly, charming and a friend to everyone.
As a good poet and a great friend
don’t worry about looking in the mirror
to find a wrinkle or two there,
from this side of the Atlantic there is none to be seen.
A belated Happy Birthday my friend.
I sincerely hope you had a happy one
surrounded with love from your family and friends.
Once again, I shall say
A BELATED HAPPY BIRTHDAY SCARLETT.

Her...

I can never get my mind off her,
I wonder if she'd mind if i'd,
make her my own,
and never let her go,
hug her tight,
treat her right,
act all polite,
take her on a date,
make sure i'm never late,
kiss her on her lips,
talk about our kids,
Make her feel like princess,
living in a castle,
hope that is not too much hassle,
But i am so blessed,
hope i can be the best,
hold you tight,
have your BR3A$t,
on my chest,
pass the test,
NOW YOUR MINE!

You know the passage where Scarlett voices her happiness that her mother is dead, so that she can't see what a bad girl Scarlett has become? Well, that's me.

A Dream, a Dream

A dream, A dream,
another dream.
A dream of you,
A dream of love,
A dream of you and me,
we had such chemistry,
If only you could see.
A dream we danced in the moonlight,
A dream we made love til the mornings bright light,
A dream, A dream,
Where my true feeling burst,
A dream, A dream
Makes me feel more hurt.
A dream, A dream,
of true love,
over and over,
over and over,
A dream, A dream
where we are together,
A dream, A dream,
why can't it be real,
A dream, A dream,
where really connect,
A dream, A dream
that I can't reject,
A dream, A dream,
and another dream,
Why can't it be real?
Why can't you love me?

More than one have my love

More than one have my love
But there isn't a dove from above
That can set my heart a howl
More then Mukuro, my beloved owl

More than one have my love
But there isn't any quite for me
As my beloved hacker
Shoichi Irie

More than one have my love
But there isn't any who a fire set
In my heart
Quiet like Scarlett

More than one will have my love
And more verses I will add
Just to show, how loves free
And just what each of you mean to me

I really don't know why Scarlett has such appeal. When I began writing the sequel, I had a lot of trouble because Scarlett is not my kind of person. She's virtually illiterate, has no taste, never learns from her mistakes.

Only Love

You may live alone and close your eyes
Some folks do
You may dream a dream thats twice your size
All night through
When the morning comes whos to tell your dreams to
Only you
Chorus:
Only love, love only, only love
Will do
Only love, love only, only love
Comes true
Nothing else, you see, there nothing else
Only love, only love
I have known a love within my heart
One or two
Where one love would end and one would start
I never knew
If love should come your way youll learn to say
I love you I love you
Repeat chorus twice

Time Passes, Faces Change, The Heart Remains The Same

The face I see
In the looking glass
Is not the face I see
In my heart.

The woman I see
In the mirror now
Is not the girl I see
In my heart.

The face I see
In the looking glass
Is lined with the cares
Of the world,

The hair is silver,
The eyes dimmed,
The face is aged,
And the mouth is thin.....

But the face I see
In heart and memory
Is as radiant, as youthful,
As the day I met you.

Forsaking My Love

I hate you
I wish to tear you away from me
This tumor that clings to my chest
The thing that makes me ache
That haunts my dreams
And tears at my desires
You have brought me only pain
My untamed heart
That beast that gnaws at my soul
That pitifully whines
Bringing my mind into unwanted pain
Yet how can I blame you
How can I chastise you when I listen intently to your pleas
Why should I punish you for what my eyes feed upon
How can I blame my eyes for falling upon her
She who brings light to the eternal darkness of my soul
She whose eyes bring me to subjection
Whose smile leaves me in awe
How can I blame you when my ears are met with her laughter
How they submerge into her song
How they quiver at her voice
Why should I punish you for inclining my soul
Tempting it with the one sense that has been forsaken by her
How could I look over the thought of the brushing of lips
The touching of hands
The binding of the soul, mind, and body
O you wretched heart
What am I to do with this constant companion
How could I tear you away
When she is the cause of my agony
Or rather
It is the lack of her which brings me sorrow
It is the need for her that leaves my heart in pain
Yet she is not mine
She was never mine
She will never be mine
O my poor heart
How can I make you see reason
When all you do is show me the truth

Love Is.............................

Love is desire,
Love is on fire,
Love is my word,
Love is to hold,
Love is my sin,
Love is my dream.
Love is lust,
Love is my truth,
Love is my journey,
Love makes me horny,
Love is on me,
Love is what you see,
Love teach me how,
Love takes a bow,
Love never dies,
Love is a surprise,
Love take care of you,
Love is true,
Love is my faith,
Love is great,
Love is so real,
Love is dear,
Love is you,
I love you, always do

A Flame For You

(d. deviller/s. hosein/c. russell)
Think about you evry minute
Dream about you evry hour of the day
Close my eyes, and I think of your kiss
Well thats all that Ive got
When youre so far away
It took some tears to let you
Thought that time would never heal me
You left my life, without a sound
After all weve been through
I still want you near me
Refrain:
A flame for you still burns
And so Im savin my love for you
A flame for you still burns
And Im holdin on
Yes. Im holdin on
Still in love with you (hey)
Remember how you get to safe and walk (ohh)
We built our life for two, oh
Guess I didnt recognize the signs
Coz I was lost in love
Lost in love with you
(repeat refrain)
Every once in a while
You find a love
That slips right through your hands
Gonna do my very best
To get you back again
A flame for you still burns
And so Im savin my love for you
(savin all my love for you)
A flame for you still burns (hey)
And Im holdin on
Yes, Im holdin on
Still in love with you
A flame for you still burns (hey, baby)
And so Im savin my love for you (savin all my love for you)
A falme for you still burn (still burn)
And Im holdin on
Yes, Im holdin on
Still in love with you
A flame for you still burns (hey)
And so Im savin my love for you (savin all my love for you)
A flame for you still burns
And Im holdin on
Yes, Im holdin on
Still in love with you
A flame for you still burns

Welcome To The Room... Sara

Written by stevie nicks.
It's not home
And it's not tara
If fact do i know you
Have i been here before
This is a dream, right
Deja vu
Did i come here on my own
Oh i see
Welcome to the room sara for scarlett
Welcome to the choir, sir
Ooooh
Missionary
Well i will be different
When i get back
And you can take all of the credit
You say everything's fine, baby
But sometimes at night
Where the first cut is the deepest one of all
And the second one
Well it's a worthless thing, so take it all the way back home
Take it home
Ooh, downstairs where the big old house is mine
Ohh, upstairs where the stars laugh and shine
Oh, oh well i thought that you were mine
Well i thought that you were mine
Welcome to the room sara, sara (for scarlett)
Welcome to the choir, sir
Well of course it was a problem (for scarlett)
Front line baby
Well you held her prisoner
And after all these years
Well as well as you knew her
In the never forgotten words of another one of your friends
In the never forgotten words of another one of your friends, baby
When you hang up that phone
Well you cease to exist
Welcome to the room sara
Welcome
Welcome to the room everyone

This Romeo Aint Got Julie Yet

Your mamma thinks Im lazy,
Your daddy runs down my name
But you said youd love me,
Come sunshine or come rain
Well Ill hold you to it julie,
Dont you fret and pout
This story has a happy ending
Even though for now
Chorus
This romeo aint got julie yet
I love you so and you can bet
Id follow you to timbuktu
Like scarlett followed rhett
But this romeo aint got julie yet
Just meet me round the old mans
Barn bout ten oclock tonight
Ill have my chevy humming
And take you for a ride
Throw the dog a big ole bone
And make sure your bags are packed
Were headed for that silver moon
And may never come back
Chorus
Yeah, Id follow you to timbuktu
Like scarlett followed rhett
But this romeo aint got julie yet

Love's No Fun

Everyday I used 2 watch U pass my house on the way 2 school
My heart skipped 4 beats checking out the way your body moved
No one can walk the way U do, it's so cool (So cool)
Imagine how I felt when I saw my best friend with her arm around U
Love's no fun when the one U love don't love U
I went 2 a movie show, the only place that I could go away from U
I seem 2 see your face in every part of my life, no matter what I do
But there U were 4 everyone 2 see, kissing like fools
I covered my face and pretended that I didn't know what I knew
That love's no fun when the one U love don't love U, oh
I go 2 bed early every night so I can dream
Of another space and another time when U belonged 2 me
And in my dreams U talk 2 me whispering oh so sweet (So sweet)
U promised that if I'm always there 4 U, U'll be there 4 me
(With U, with U)
And then I wake and say that love's no fun without U (No it ain't, no no)
Love's no fun when the one U love don't love U
(I don't wanna be without love)
Love's no fun when the one U love don't love U
(Do U hear me, do U hear me?)
Love's no fun when the one U love don't love U, oh
