Leap
The vines of love
Have all died
The leaves of kisses
All withered
And blown away
The storm clouds
Bellow and bluster
Flash in anger
And in silence sit I
with 'alone' an old friend of few words
Time has come, the damage done,
Reparations are made impossoble.
You wear a smile that's a frown inside
Goodbye to all the insults,
All the jeers and innuendos
Time to make a leap

If I'd Been The One
I've been lost inside
Empty space in my heart
And some thing never change
Oh,
How it hurts me and
How it's tearin' me apart
And it just goes on and on
Can you read my mind?
Take a good look at my face
Could you take the time
Just to stand here in my place?
What if I'd been the one to say goodbye?
Goodbye
Could you smile when inside you just want to cry?
Look inside
Can you read my mind?
Oh, Oh
When I hear your name
Feel so cold deep inside
Still it's hard to explain, oh,
What your love meant to me
They say,
"Time will heal the pain"
But it just goes on forever
Can you read my mind?
Have you closed the door on love?
Can you be so blind?
Did you think I'd just give up?
What if I'd been the one to say goodbye?
Goodbye
Could you smile when inside you just want to cry?
Want to cry
What if I'd been the one to say goodbye?
Goodbye
Could you smile when it hurts so deep inside?
And it never fades away
Fade away
Time can erase the reasons why
Count my mistakes,
And the heartaches,
Since you said goodbye
What if I'd been the one to say goodbye?
Goodbye
Could you smile when inside you just want to cry?
Want to cry
What if I'd been the one to say goodbye?
Goodbye
Could you smile when it hurts so deep inside?
And it never fades away
Never fades away
No it don't fade away

Not Ready To Say Goodbye
neither one of us was ready to say goodbye.
but we knew that it was my time.
there are so many things
that we think to say, but we never
find the time, or the way.
the love that had built up
over the years
the joys, the happiness, the cheers.
all these memories come to you
quick as a flash
but not enough time to make it last.
although neither of us is ready
to say goodbye.
you know that i'll be fine.
i'll be with JESUS and our father
from above
receiving all their blessings
and their love.
look into my eyes and you will see
all the love inside of me.
so although there are so many
words unspoken
i leave you a gift
a blessing, a token.
i leave you a 'so long'
and not a goodbye
for soon we will be
side by side.

Hello And Goodbye
So long my friend, don't say goodbye
Just give me one last kiss beneath this glowing sky.
We'll go walking through the park
And hang out in the rain.
Tell a joke and watch me smile
As we drink away the day.
And know the next time that you
Make a wish upon a star
I'll be wishing on the same one that you do
And every night i'm all alone
In some burn out highway town
I'll be thinking of the day that i met you.
Hello again, it's been to long.
What happened to our love
Since the last time i was gone?
I detach myself again
And lose something everytime.
The solutions in the problem
Temporarily alright.
And know the next time that you
Make a wish upon a star
That sometimes it might actually come true.
Our conversation can't consist of hello and goodbye
And the silence between saying i love you.
And sometimes i wonder 'bout that too.

Smile Or Frown
Pairs of opposites
Half of them parasites
In the lives of mortals
Invading their portals!
Smile and frown one such
World of difference so much!
Smile attracts, Frown repels
Smile wins, Frown loses
Smile befriends, Frown alienates
Smile infuses love, Frown injects hatred
Smile encourages, Frown deserts
Smile strengthens, Frown weakens
Smile carries, Frown throws off
Humans alone can control
And conquer to play their role!
Sport the smile
Bid adieu to frown
Make others happy
Feel really merry!

Wearing The Inside Out
From morning to night I stayed out of sight
Didnt recognise what Id become
No more than alive Id barely survive
In a word...overrun
Wont hear a sound
From my mouth
Ive spent too long
On the inside out
My skin is cold
To the human touch
This bleeding hearts
Not beating much
I murmured a vow of silence and now
I dont even hear when I think aloud
Extinguished by light I turn on the night
Wear its darkness with an empty smile
Im creeping back to life
My nervous system all away
Im wearing the inside out
Look at him now
Hes paler somehow
But hes coming round
Hes starting to choke
Its been so long since he spoke
Well he can have the words right from my mouth
And with these words I can see
Clear through the clouds that covered me
Just give it time then speak my name
Now we can hear ourselves again
Im holding out
For the day
When all the clouds
Have blown away
Im with you now
Can speak your name
Now we can hear
Ourselves again
Hes curled into the corner
But still the screen is flickering
With an endless stream of garbage to
...curse the place
In a sea of random images
The self-destructing animal
Waiting for the waves to break
Hes standing on the threshold
Caught in fiery anger
And hurled into the furnace hell
...curse the place
Hes torn in all directions
And the screen is still flickering
Waiting for the flames to break

Goodbye my friend
Though we never know
Where life will take us,
I know it's just a ride
On the wheel.
And we never know
When death will shake us
And we wonder how
It will feel.
So Goodbye my friend.
I know I'll never see you again.
But the time together
Through all the years,
Will take away these tears.
It's OK now - Goodbye my friend.
I see a lot of things
That make me crazy,
And I guess I held on to you,
You could have run away
And left - well maybe,
But it wasn't time
And we both knew.
So Goodbye My friend.
I know I'll never see you again.
But the love you gave me
Through all the years
Will take away these tears.
I'm OK now - Goodbye my friend.

Great Friendship
Did Anyone Ever Tell You
How Important You Make Others Feel,
Somebody out here is smiling
About friendship that is so real.
Did Anyone Ever Tell You that
Many Times When they were sad,
Your lovely voice made them smile a bit
In fact, It made me so happy.
Each time you send something
Sharing whatever you have,
There are No Words to Thank You
But Somebody thinks you're a great friend.
Did Anyone Ever Tell You
Just How Much They Love You
Well, My Dearest Friend
Today I am Telling You that
I love you so much.
You're a great friend,
My true friend,
No words can described them
How great you are.

It's my best friend an' my new friend.
It’s my best friend
An’ my new friend
It’s my old frown
With no ground
I’m happier with him around
What do ya do?
When love’s not allowed
Effortless
Meaningless
Feeli ng-less
Lifeless
She’s my best friend
Always there
He’s my new friend
Who’s now their
Both make me smile
It’s the old frown
Turned upside down
The times with him around
Me smiling
So happily
But her
My best friend
Life without has no meaning
My best friend
Or my new friend
Why must I choose?

Farewell!
a days passed and we don`t feel it..
and a years gone,
and a time has come to say goodbye..
its a time to friends leaving..
let us farewell, whom we carry a love and a appreciation,
in our hearts...
farewell them in spite of us..
right, that we smile while we say goodbye,
but we hide a behind that smile a hot tears,
hot tears which we don`t wish to be...
and wished to a fate to stoped his judgment,
which is forced on us..
goodbye oh my dearest friend...
goodbye.......

Smile--Smile--Smile
A smile is beautiful with all its charm
Something to give but does no harm
A smile is a frown only upside down
It has a good feeling, just look around
A smile is a flash that cannot be sold
It has everlasting pleasure we are told
A smile is like the sunshine at its very best
Some wear it all the time until they lay down to rest
A smile is valuable like silver and gold
But it cannot be bought just always on hold
A smile is nothing till someone gives it away
Just try your best to receive it some day
A smile is like a statue that enriches the mind
You cannot steal or throw away but not hard to find
A smile is for the rich also for the poor
The benefits are the same till there is no more
A smile is for everyone with its action so true
It creates happiness in the home for me and you
A smile is a smile as known to mankind
Stand up in front and smile not stand behind.

Play It On Your Lips :)
Wear a smile all day, smile away the day
and watch the effect you pass around
It might just cheer up the not so gay
and happiness might as well abound.
And don't you look your best when you do smile?
No wonder you are asked to say 'cheese' for a photo
But the trick is to wear it all the while
'Smile without distinction', that be thy motto.
When someone creases their forehead into a frown
you curve your lips into a smile
Don't let their scowl get you down
then they'd be the one to look the clown
while you show off an enchanting style.
When people stare 'n' glare at you
Return their stares and glares with a grin smile
Keep smiling whether they boo or pooh pooh
they might just reset their mental file.
Thus forever flash your pearlywhites
A crescent smiley on thy face
They aren't merely meant for chow and bites
Flash them into a smile that lights
Experiment with facial expression delights! :)

Trauma Of Time
Time Fades The Smile, Not The Pain.
Time Drains The Water Not The Damage From The Rain.
Time Fades The Tomorrow Not The Yesterday.
Time Fades The Cuts But The Scars Never Go Away.
Time Fades The Sweetness Not All The Things Sour.
Time Fades Those Few Precious Moments But Not The Crippling Hour.
Time Fades The Sun, Not It’s Brutal Remains.
Time Fades The Photographs Not There Stains.
Time Fades The Lessons Not All The Things That I’ve Learned.
Time Puts Out The Fire But Not The Days I Burned.
Time Fades The Colors Not The Glaring White.
Time Fades The Bruises Not The Darkness In The Night.
Time Fades The Happiness Not The Tears.
Time Fades The Triumphs Not The Fears.
Time Fades The Storm Not The Ocean.
Time Fades The Memories Not The Emotion.
Time Fades The Dreams Not The Nightmare.
Time Fades The Hand Not The Times You Weren’t There.
Time Fades The Beauty Not The Gloom.
Time Fades The Doors And Windows Not The Empty Room.
Time Fades The Love Not The Empty Lie.
Time Fades The Hello But Never The Goodbye.

Two On A Fence
sitting in a lounge chair
looking up at the sun.
wondering how and why all of this begun.
it started off simply as not seeing eye to eye
then the words and insults all began to fly.
words can cut deeper and more
than a knife ever could.
but the ego is great
so this is where we stood.
i accepted all the innuendos
and all the casting lies.
i tried to close my mind
but the words continued to fly.
we are like the crows
two sitting on the fence
swaying back and forth
and the wire getting tense.
one of us will have to leave
before we both fall
one must bend
while the other stands tall.
there is only one way that
this love will ever survive
if we stop the innuendos
and all the foolish lies.
like a tree in a hurricane
it may tend to bend
but it continues fighting
to the very end.
this love may be uprooted
and it may toss and turn
but this is the lesson
that we both will have to learn.

My Old Friend
My old friend I recall
The times we had are hanging on my wall
I wouldn't trade them for gold
Cause they laugh and they cry me and
somehow sanctify me
And they're woven in the stories I have told
And tell again
My old friend I apologize
For the years that have passed since the
last time you and I
Dusted off those memories
But the runnin' and the races and the
people and the places
There was always somewhere else I had to be
And time gets thin my old friend
Don't know why don't know why
Don't know why don't know why
Solo
My old friend this song's for you
Cause a few simple verses was the least
that I could do
To tell the world you were here
And the love and the laughter will live
on long after
All of the sadness and tears
And we'll meet again my old friend
Goodbye goodbye
Goodbye goodbye
My old friend

Golden Sweetheart
I reach out to let you know someone is there
I reach out to let you know that I care
But you keep smacking my hands away
You are going to need those arms someday
Strongly you try to stand
But no man is an island
Independent is what you are
You need no one to make you feel like a star
Sometimes you resonate in the back of my mind
For a good friend sometime is hard to find
Don’t you see I’ve tried to reach you
Or is that you just don’t have a clue
On yourself you want to depend
But don’t you know I am just a friend
You’ve said I’m that and nothing more
So why do you keep closing your door
It’s your song so let us dance
I’m not trying to get in your pants
I am a friend you can rely
But how much longer should I try
Rejection is very hard to take
Why won’t you open up for goodness sake
You never miss the water till the well runs dry
One day I won’t be there to dry you eye
I was there to pick you up and such
I was there to drive you home when you had too much
I was there to turn your frown into a smile
You know my number so why won’t you dial
All I need to know is that you’re doing fine
But in your eyes all I see is a question sign
How much longer do you think it will last
Till all will be in the past
You are beautiful but you refuse to you see
So for now I will just let it be
You are perfect in every way
Just a simply smile and you’ve made my day
My eyes were blind but now I see thee
For your eyes has always captivated me
You are cool and a wit for you are clever
In your eyes I saw God and forever
You like the trill of the hunt and the chase
But my time I can’t afford no more to waist
Seeking something that can’t be sought
Pursuing something that can’t be caught
You can run but you cannot hide
Someday I won’t be by your side
Now it’s time for me to cease and desist
For my friendship you have dismissed
Lord knows that I’ve tried
But something inside for me has died
Bitter sweet it was my friend
For your love for me has come to an end
My eyes cried and my lips are quivering
My body shakes, my soul is shivering
My heart breaks and my mind forsakes
My ears won’t hear, my being fears
I refuse to say goodbye but see you later
Someday you might find something greater
No longer two for we are now apart
So long, fair thee well my golden sweetheart

Silence Echos
Silence
makes my heart break
Silence
Love, does not make
Silence
Was it all just a terrible mistake?
Silence
Was love just a game, just fake?
Silence
Leaves me heartbroken
Silence
Kills he feeling behind words unspoken
Silence
has is a shield you hide behind
Silence
Guards what's on your mind
Silence
Chills your heart's sound
Silence
Love cannot silently be found
Silence
has turned your dreams blind
Silence
is darkness in which you cannot find
Silence
Crushes the hopeful feelings that were kind
Silence
Of emptiness it did remind
Silence
Silence took all I sought to find
Silence
Silence was hurtful and unkind
Silence
Will kill love before it ripens on the vine
Love will go silently
But it's lonely hurt will echo for all time

When We Say Goodbye
when we say goodbye
words never end
and tears never stop
when we say goodbye
kisses never enough
and time never tolerates
when we say goodbye
we caught by fear
though we all smiling
when we say goodbye
we want to stay still
but the road slowly moving
why hard to separate
because love too long
or doubt becomes renegade
why drinks never sated
because memories too strong
or loneliness mates
when we say goodbye
hope we meet someday
in another place we never know
when we say goodbye
give hug once more
till we can endure all sorrow

In Loosing Control
Your translucent metaphors
Make my blue words to become
Seeds of a mirrored thinking.
My words need your metaphors to scream,
While emerging from their painful cage.
They need to be washed
Again and again
In the Light downpour.
My words need to be loved, sweetheart,
Their mad escape happens
Sometimes, in haste.
You can make them to get out
By being so well
Mixed with hate and pain.
My words may bite your lips
In a love kiss, baby.
My words need the blood of your love.
Moreover,
They need to breathe your love
In loosing control.
Your words are leaves,
Sometimes,
Being carried off their knowledge to spread
Inside of me
For changing something-
Your very red, orange and yellow words,
Preceding the white silence of our winter.
Your words, my love,
Can become icy cubs slipping into my hot mouth
To kill my silence.
In-between dark and light,
In our secret dawns,
You make me miss their sweet touch
Inside of me
In making them to be
Love.

Goodbye To Love
Ill say goodbye to love
No one ever cared if I should live or die
Time and time again the chance for love has passed me by
And all I know of love is how to live without it
I just cant seem to find it
So Ive made my mind up
I must live my life alone
And though its not the easy way
I guess Ive always know
Id say goodbye to love
There are no tomorrows for this heart of mine
Surely time will lose these bitter memories
And Ill find that there is someone to believe in
And to live for something I could live for
All the years of useless search
Have finally reached an end
Loneliness and empty days will be my only friend
From this day love is forgotten
Ill go on as best I can
What lies in the future is a mystery to us all
No one can predict the wheel of fortune as it falls
There may come a time when I will see that Ive been wrong
But for now this is my song
And its goodbye to love
Ill say goodbye to love
