my trust i had for you,
everything i thought i had going right.
EVERYTHING and now i'm surposed to calm down,
DID YOU LOSE EVERYTHING? ! ! ! !
and you still want me to calm down?
if it wasn't for you i wouldn't be in this mess! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

i'm tiried of feeling like i'm not important! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
when i know DAMN sure i am! ! ! ! !
so if you got a problem with it.

I Am Calm In The Pain
I AM CALM IN THE PAIN
I am calm in the pain,
And calm in the rejection,
And calm through the insult,
And calm through the anger,
And calm calm calm,
Though I feel so deeply
How I have failed
I am calm
Very calm
So calm
Until suddenly
In the middle of the morning prayer
I begin to cry to God
Cry with a terrible crying
And then when the prayer done
Calm calm calm calm calm.

This House Is Not For Sale
Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
We're still livin' here, how come nobody can tell
They're takin' all the furniture, movin' our things
Come on little honey, put your head on my knee
Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
And calm down, calm down, calm down
Calm down, calm down, calm down
Do you remember when we even bought this thing?
I danced you across the wooden floor and you signed the lease
What happened in the car that night?
What happened in the car that night?
Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
And calm down, calm down, calm down
Calm down, calm down, calm down
Calm down
Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
We could grab a couple sheets, yeah, give 'em quite a scare
I remember lyin' on the bedroom floor
You were holding me, little honey, kissin' my soul
Tell 'em that the house is not for sale
And calm down, calm down, calm down
Calm down, calm down, calm down
Calm down
Calm down

I love the word 'calm
I love the word ‘calm’
‘The sea lies calm tonight’
‘Ne’er saw I, never felt, a calm so deep!
‘And calm of mind, all passion spent’
I love the word ‘calm’
And the feeling of peace,
And the joy in quiet,
And the sense of all things well,
It gives.

In Memoriam A. H. H.: 11. Calm is the morn without a sound
Calm is the morn without a sound,
Calm as to suit a calmer grief,
And only thro' the faded leaf
The chestnut pattering to the ground:
Calm and deep peace on this high wold,
And on these dews that drench the furze.
And all the silvery gossamers
That twinkle into green and gold:
Calm and still light on yon great plain
That sweeps with all its autumn bowers,
And crowded farms and lessening towers,
To mingle with the bounding main:
Calm and deep peace in this wide air,
These leaves that redden to the fall;
And in my heart, if calm at all,
If any calm, a calm despair:
Calm on the seas, and silver sleep,
And waves that sway themselves in rest,
And dead calm in that noble breast
Which heaves but with the heaving deep.

I dread the calm
I dread the calm in the morning of a mourn without a sound
It is a calm that comes to foster a greater grief
It is a calm light of dusk before ever dew was falling from leaves
It is a calm sinking in calm pattering to the ground
I fear the calm and scudding winds in the high wold
And on the dews the drench the gorse
And all the silvery gossamer
Shaken into gilded gold
Is it calm and still in the dusky light over great plains
That sweeps late and swiftly in autumn bowers
Of secluded farms and solitary towers
To merge with the bounding and the saint
Is it calm on the vast sea under the spangled silver sleep
The waves that sway in colossus to lull themselves to rest
And the dead calm in the deepening breast
Which heaves with the heaving deep
Yet calm is the mute peace in the meadow’s air
The forest gloom with loom of leaves that redden to fall
And in my chest if calm can ever dwell at all
If any calm is there, it is the calm of despair

Always be there for you
To staisfy your needs
Thered be no problem - even if you just need someone to talk to

Why Me?
Why me?
Why does it seem like bad thing happen to me.
Is it wrong?
To think that I’m the only one with bad luck.
What do you do?
You want to ease the pain but, how.
Will it ever end?
It don’t seem to go anywhere.
Who will help me through?
When I’m feeling down?
Will somebody show me the damn way?
Somebody got to know.
I feel like I’m all alone.
Nobody want to admit that there’re in pain.
What the fudge that about?
Population of 1 is really not that cool.
Will anybody give a damn?
How I’m feeling?
Will anybody care?
Somewhat, but can’t understand the pain.
The pain that I want to ease, deep inside.
All because you not by my side.
Life is really messed up.
Taking people you care about away,
Leaving you here with pain.
Nothing you can do.
Except sit and cry
And ask god why.
Why take them?
Is there a good reason?
If that the case take me too.
Take me from this pain.
Take me because it what you do.
You took my friend, and yet you can’t end mine.
No matter how much I beg or cry.
You want me when it my time.
When will that be?
When I decide I want to end this pain,
Once and for all.

The House Was Quiet and The World Was Calm
The house was quiet and the world was calm.
The reader became the book; and summer night
Was like the conscious being of the book.
The house was quiet and the world was calm.
The words were spoken as if there was no book,
Except that the reader leaned above the page,
Wanted to lean, wanted much most to be
The scholar to whom his book is true, to whom
The summer night is like a perfection of thought.
The house was quiet because it had to be.
The quiet was part of the meaning, part of the mind:
The access of perfection to the page.
And the world was calm. The truth in a calm world,
In which there is no other meaning, itself
Is calm, itself is summer and night, itself
Is the reader leaning late and reading there.

The Nature Of The Storm
Glare at the cloud
Guarded by fog and shroud
And see the storm will be here
Soon it will be quite near
Brace yourself my dear
And yet before
We have to be torn at the core
Torn to and fro, there will be a calm before a calm
A time where there shall be no qualm
And yet the calm is terrifying
The silence before war is maddening
It is not the nor consoling calm of peace
But a maddening roar of quiet
I fear the calm more than the storm because sometimes 'Not Knowing'
That's the worst

Calm Is Who I Am Now
CALM IS WHO I AM NOW
Calm is who I am now
Calm and quiet-
I have done
What I could do-
The rest is repetition-
Slowly slowly
Time is taking me away-
How long I do not know-
How much pain I do not know-
Calm is who I am now -
Quiet quiet
Before the fears return again
And the anxiety over what I have not done-
Calm is who I am now
In these moments at this hour
Four in the morning
A small part of the long day to come.

The Sea So Calm Today
The fury
it rages on
in me
The tsunami
in me
that would
take years to tame
the calm sea
So calm
it throws me
off balance
Stoic, unfeeling
after all the ravages
it lies so calm
A lesson
to face life adversities
the calm sea this day
so calm it throws me
off balance
This tsunami
in me that would
take years to tame

Night Comes On
I went down to the place
Where I knew she lay waiting
Under the marble and the snow
I said, mother Im frightened
The thunder and the lightning
Ill never come through this alone
She said, Ill be with you
My shawl wrapped around you
My hand on your head when you go
And the night came on
It was very calm
I wanted the night to go on and on
But she said, go back to the world
We were fighting in egypt
When they signed this agreement
That nobody else had to die
There was this terrible sound
And my father went down
With a terrible wound in his side
He said, try to go on
Take my books, take my gun
Remember, my son, how they lied
And the night comes on
Its very calm
Id like to pretend that my father was wrong
But you dont want to lie, not to the young
We were locked in this kitchen
I took to religion
And I wondered how long she would stay
I needed so much
To have nothing to touch
Ive always been greedy that way
But my son and my daughter
Climbed out of the water
Crying, papa, you promised to play
And they lead me away
To the great surprise
Its papa, dont peek, papa, cover your eyes
And they hide, they hide in the world
Now I look for her always
Im lost in this calling
Im tied to the threads of some prayer
Saying, when will she summon me
When will she come to me
What must I do to prepare
When she bends to my longing
Like a willow, like a fountain
She stands in the luminous air
And the night comes on
And its very calm
I lie in her arms and says, when Im gone
Ill be yours, yours for a song
Now the crickets are singing
The vesper bells ringing
The cats curled asleep in his chair
Ill go down to bills bar
I can make it that far
And Ill see if my friends are still there
Yes, and heres to the few
Who forgive what you do
And the fewer who dont even care
And the night comes on
Its very calm
I want to cross over, I want to go home
But she says, go back, go back to the world

I Don't Care Anymore
Well you can tell ev'ryone I'm a down disgrace
So drag my name all over the place.
I don't care anymore. (I don't care)
You can tell ev'rybody 'bout the state I'm in
You won't catch me crying 'cos I just can't win.
I don't care anymore I don't care anymore
I don't care what you say
I don't play the same games you play.
'Cos I've been talking to the people that you call your friends
And it seems to me there's a means to and end.
They don't care anymore. (they don't care)
And as for me I can sit here and bide my time
I got nothing to lose if I speak my mind.
I don't care anymore I don't care no more
I don't care what you say
We never played by the same rules anyway.
I won't be there anymore
Get out of my way

Well, I don't care now what you say (I don't care what you say)
'Cos ev'ry day (everyday)
I'm feeling fine with myself (I'm feeling fine with myself)
And I don't care now what you say (I don't care what you say)
Hey I'll do alright by myself (I'll be alright by myself)

And you laughed in my face 'cos ya held all the cards.

And I really ain't bothered what you think of me
'Cos all I want of you is just a let me be.
I don't care anymore
Did you hear? I don't care no more

Take Care Of Your Woman
Jerry mcbee
Take care of your woman, dont treat her mean
Make her feel like a woman and she wont ever leave
When shes walking in the darkness, be the light she needs
Give her dreams for tomorrow and she wont ever leave
Take care of your woman and make her know that you care
Let her know that you love her, you want her, you need her and shell always be right there
Through the storms of emotion be the calm that she needs
Be a rock of devotion and she will never leave
Take care of your woman and make her know that you care
Let her know that you love her, you want her, you need her and shell always be right there
Through the storms of emotion be the calm that she needs
Be a rock of devotion and she will never leave

Different tratment
She banged the phone and blasted
I feared more blasts and waited
She was damn angry and out of control
I even forgot to address her and call
I gained little strength and again called
Her previous encounter was stone walled
I was not in rage but in shame
I did not know now what she will blame
“What you think you can talk on phone”
I was taken a back when she had blasted and gone
I became really nervous and tried to console
She was in damn bad mood and on other pole
I thought of bad day ahead and tried to pacify
No amount of persuasion may calm her or satisfy
“Don’t you know how to address woman on women’s day’?
She was trying to be little aggressive and has sway
I thought she wanted little different treatment
She did not want same feeling with the sweet comments
She thought of forcing her views in hostile mood
I thought I may have to miss my precious food
Whole world is complementing us for our role
You are not able to make even small sweet call
What are you going to do for me and my cause?
Now I came to know what were all drama and all because
I laughed it out but after long stress
She had all happiness on face
Even though it was unusual for her to act
She was in hostile mood to impress upon and react
I said congrats on their women’s day
But requested her to find for me a comfortable way
So I can remain in peace with her in this lovely world
But asked her to calm down and return to my warm fold

YOU THINK THIS IS ABOUT SEX? ...by Talile Ali
DAMN YOUR HEAD MUST BE PERPLEXED
YOU THINK THIS IS ABOUT THE SEX?
ITS ABOUT A LOT OF THINGS
BUT SEX IS LEAST OF THEM IT SEEMS
THERE IS THE TRUST THAT YOU BETRAYED
AND THE YOU USED ME LIKE SOME HALF WIT SLAVE
AND WHAT THE DUCK I WAS YOUR FOOL, YOU SWAYED
I DID EVERYTHING YOU WANTED AND CRAVED
DAMN WHAT A REAL ASS I'VE BEEN
I HOPE I NEVER AM AGAIN
MY ASS IS STEERING CLEAR OF YOU, DUDE
CAUSE TWO PLUS TWO EQUALS I'M SCREWED
SO LEAVE MY FLEXIN ASS ALONE
AND LET ME HAVE A CHANCE TO ROAM
AND GET TO KNOW SOME OTHER GALS
AND LADIES WHO MIGHT RING MY BELLS
I'M TIRED AS HELL OF LIVING THIS MESS
JUST TO OCCASSIONALLY SEE YOU AND BE CARESSED
I NEED TO HAVE MY HEAD EXAMINED
THEN TORCHED AND BURIED IN SOME CANYON
BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN SUCH AN OVER GROWN TWIT
OVER THE LIKES OF YOU, AND BABE, THATS IT
SO IF YOU ARE WONDERING WHY I AM HURT
YOU HAVE TO GO BEYOND THE SKIRT
A LITTLE HIGHER AND DEEPER STILL
TILL YOU REACH THAT MIND THAT MADE THIS PILL
CAUSE BABE I'M PISSED AS HELL FOR SURE
THAT ALL OF THESE YEARS OUR LIVES LIED IN STIR
TO THINK OF WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN
OH, YOU CHILD, HOW YOU HAVE SINNED
AND DAMN ME TO
FOR I AM YOU TRUE FRIEND
THATS WHY IT HURT SO DEEP

My Girl's Ex-Boyfriend
When he was seeing her
He could see he had his doubts
Now he's missing her because
You know shes missing out
Now its haunting him
The memorizes like a ghost
and he's so terrorified
Cause no one else even comes close
He's a guy that you should feel sorry for
He had the world but he thought that he wanted more
I owe it all to the mistake that he made back then
I owe it all to my girl's ex-boyfriend
So then, along comes me
This undeserving mess (undeserving mess)
Who would believe my life
Would be so blessed (life would be so blessed)
Two years ago
He left all that to breath (left all that to breath)
Who would of known
It would be everything I need
He's a guy that you should feel sorry for
He had the world but he thought that he wanted more
I owe it all to the mistake that he made back then
I owe it all to my girl's ex-boyfriend
If it wasn't for him
I would still be searching
If it wasn't for him
I wouldn't know my best friend
If it wasn't for him
He would be able to see
If it wasn't for him
He would be as happy as me

Cant Trust Neting @ All
my past made me not trust completely
wasn't able to trust anybody fully
YOU made me not trust at all
and i thought i was too strong
thought i wasn't able to fall
thought that i wouldn't allow myself to get hurt anymore
but that all changed when you knocked
and i opened up that door
my past made me not trust
wasn't able to love
and although i know my man is true
even him i decreasingly trust
because YOU were that one
now I hate YOU
and im so pissed off
my past made me not trust most things
but YOU made me not trust anything at ALL
