I Am Not Bothered
all i do are mere exercises
as i flex a word
make it run in the confines of a clause
into the sentences of
my soul
i take you and i play
i create a door and when you are inside a room
you may have seen nothing at all
because you very well know
about the story of the wind
it makes you colder and feel
that it is just lying there
i am always far away from you
even if you kiss me passionately
all i do is caress a letter
and it grows into some pretty words
because of love
i sow a vowel into a fertile ground of consonants
and then the sounds of concerns begin to hush
you see a baby
you baby talk it
you surrender the maturity of your thoughts
because all it has given you is pain
a thousand flowers bloom
filling colors to the black array of stones
in silence the sands are too beautiful
the sea breeze wants to drown them
these are the exercises of the mind
looking for justifications for some hardships that are left
in the dark
words are not just tools
they are also toys
to make the child believe that this world is too a
playground for joys
there is an experience of so much freedom
in every clause in every cause
you wonder why i do not dabble into punctuations
anymore
i am not bothered
i am not sour....

Santa Claus Is Back In Town
Well it's Christmas-time pretty baby
Snow is fallin' on the ground
Well it's Christmas-time pretty baby
Snow is fallin' on the ground
You'll be a real good little baby

Got no sleigh with reindeer
No sack on my back
Gonna see me comin' in a big black Cadillac
Oooh Christmas-time pretty baby

You'll be a real good little baby

Down your chimney tonight!

Untitled 15
there is a mountain of words
an ocean of words
a continent of words
there is a rain of words
a flood of words
a river of words and true to their being words
they also disintegrate as syllables
on the other hand some form the clauses
conditions and terms
some make sentences and paragraphs
a world of words full of words
i am not a word and i am buried in a mountain of words
a sea of words i drown
a continent of words i am condemned to walk all the days of my life
too may words my ears do not listen anymore.
my eyes do not like to read anymore.
i like something not having to do with words.
what about a touch? what about a picture?
what about a kiss?
why don't people just make love without saying a word?
let us start touching the hearts of people
to avoid this war of words that lead us to our own perdition.

I Cant Take It
Words and music by robin zander
Well I saw you today and realized
How I missed my peace of mind
I feel your breath in my ear
But late at night its you I always think about
That little girl inside of you I once knew
I should have known better
Still the smell of you was on my face
But you were too busy
To notice me last night
Now I cant take it alone
I cant make it alone
I cant take it
I cant make it alone
Oh no, oo, oh no
Then I tell myself Ill put you down
Dont wanna see your face around
Dont call me up anymore
When I hear your voice its in my ear
Youre kissin on the phone
It makes it all come clear
Now I cant take it alone
I cant make it alone
I cant take it
I cant make it alone
Oh no, oh, oh no
I try to tell myself
Dont need you anymore
Dont want you hangin around my door, oh no
Now I cant take it alone
I cant make it alone
I cant take it alone
I cant make it alone
I cant take it alone
I cant make it alone
If its wrong or right
I cant take it, I cant make it alone
You know how I tried
I cant take it, I cant make it alone
I try tell myself dont need you anymore
I cant take it alone, I cant make it alone
Oh baby, my pretty baby
I cant take it alone, I cant make it alone

War Baby
He's fast asleep and in his dreams
No sounds of rockets, no distant screams
The sun is bright, the skies are blue
There's a playground now that he's running to
Oh War Baby, if only you could see
That dream is real in the land of the free
Oh War Baby, please don't despair
Take my hand and I'll lead you there
He awakens now as the ground starts to shake
Moments before swimming a crystal blue lake
His Mother takes him, his Father long gone
He looks in her eyes Mummy please be strong
Oh War Baby, just five years old,
Listen to Mummy, do as your told
Oh War Baby, you know nothing more
Since you were born the World is at war
They run to a shelter, he looks around
A large explosion, a familiar sound
The skies burst open raining stones and dust
He whispers to Mummy be strong, we must we MUST
Oh War baby, we watch you grow older
Yours eyes lose their innocence, your heart grows colder
Oh War Baby, what's that in your hand?
A man with a gun, it's time to make a stand
The man with a gun, he throws it away
Through whistles and gunfire, he builds a swing so kids can play
He doesn't feel it, the bullet that struck
He's out of time and out of luck
Oh War Baby, if only you can see
They finished the playground so kids can play free
Oh War Baby, a breath of happiness at a price you paid
Why can no one see the pain and sadness this war has made?

I Love You Too Much
Honey you make me feel like you care a lot
But i-i-i-i-i, I love you too much
Baby you make me feel like you need me a lot
But i-i-i-i-i, I love you too much
When you say those words of love to me
It makes me feel so good inside
But when the sunshine comes and you must leave
It only leaves me with my own foolish pride
Baby you make me feel like you care a lot
But i-i-i-i-i, honey, I love you too much
Baby you make me feel like you care a lot
But i-i-i-i-i, honey, I love you too much
Oh, when you say those words of love to me
I know you know you make me feel so good inside
But if by break of day you never can stay
There must be something in our love that I dont know about that you
Feel youve got to hide
Baby, baby, you make me feel like you care a lot
But i-i-i-i-i, honey, I love you too much
Baby you make me feel like you care a lot
But i-i-i-i-i, honey, I love you too much
Hey I love you, I love you, I love, I love you
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
I love you, I need you, I love, I love you
Feel me, feel me, feel me, feel me, love me, love me
I love you baby, dont let nobody tell you that I dont love you baby
Oh oh I love you
Baby, have you ever wished that forever nighttime could last
Dont leave my heart a broken glass baby, oh oh
Sometimes I feel like I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
Maybe three much
Yeah, I love you
You make me feel like you care a lot
But i-i-i-i-i, I love you too much

Lovers In The World Of Words
we shall be lovers
in the world of the words
you can be a pronoun
not a name of a person
and i can be a verb
making love with you
in the world of words
you can just be a phrase
and i can be a clause
we can make a sentence
not a question but this
interjection but not that
loud but something so
discreet like a moaning
sound of a woman
titillated by a man inside
a scented room and then
for all we know in the world
of words we have become
a beautiful poem of love
insatiable desire, endless
quest of our real meaning.

Caress Me, Baby!
Caress me, baby!
Make it sweet.
Make it feel good...
Enough for me to want to eat.
And...
Caress me, baby!
Hold me tight.
Make me feel...
Satisfied and alright,
At night.
Ah-ah...
Ah ah ah ah ah ah.
Ah-ah,
Ah-ah!
Caress me, baby!
Caress me, baby!
Let's squeeze as we sit...
Feeling it.
Without teasing,
Or resisting one bit!
Let's kiss our lips...
As we droan with desire.
Moaning on in bliss!
Caress me, baby!
Make it sweet.
Let's reminisce this...
Each time we meet.
Ah-ah...
Ah ah ah ah ah ah.
Ah-ah,
Ah-ah!
Caress me, baby!

Don't Go Too Fast
Verse 1:
Destination nowhere land
Let us find a place where heartaches end
It's good to hold you tight
Just make me surrender
Come on in and find out baby
We got time and hope and dreams enough
So don't you hurry love
Chorus:
Oh baby babe don't go too fast
Feel the rhythm of my heart
Don't you go for everything
I'm not a puppet on a string
Baby babe don't go too fast
Play it cool and make it last
Baby let your feelings flow
Just take it easy - get it slow
Love can be so beautiful
Feel the rhythm of my heart
Verse 2:
It's a "now or never-night"
Baby don't you try to break my pride
I've got magic words:
Together forever
Take away the spell of darkness
Baby come into my world of fears
To kiss away my tears
Chorus:
Oh baby babe don't go too fast
Feel the rhythm of my heart
Don't you go for everything
I'm not a puppet on a string
Baby babe don't go too fast
Play it cool and make it last
Baby let your feelings flow
Just take it easy - get it slow
Love can be so beautiful
Feel the rhythm of my heart
Bridge:
Take a chance on me tonight
Baby look inside of me - you'll see
The flames of destiny
Chorus:
Oh baby babe don't go too fast
Feel the rhythm of my heart
Don't you go for everything
I'm not a puppet on a string
Baby babe don't go too fast
Play it cool and make it last
Baby let your feelings flow
Just take it easy - get it slow
Love can be so beautiful
Feel the rhythm of my heart
Baby babe don't go too fast
Feel the rhythm of my heart
yeah yeah oh oh
Love can be so beautiful
Feel the rhythm of my heart

Ultra Violet (Light My Way)
Sometimes I feel like I don't know
Sometimes I feel like checking out.
I wanna get it wrong
Can't always be strong
And love, it won't be long.
Oh, sugar, don't you cry.
Oh, child, wipe the tears from your eyes.
You know I need you to be strong
And the day it is dark, as the night is long.
Feel like trash, you make me feel clean.
I'm in the black, can't see or be seen.
Baby, baby, baby, light my way.
Alright now, baby, baby, baby, light my way.
You bury your treasure where it can't be found
But your love is a secret that's been passed around.
There is a silence that comes to a house
Where no-one can sleep.
I guess it's the price of love; I know it's not cheap.
Oh, come on, baby, baby, baby, light my way.
Oh, come on, baby, baby, baby, light my way
Baby, baby, baby, light my way.
I remember when we could sleep on stones.
Now we lie together in whispers and moans.
When I was all messed up and I heard opera in my head
Your love was a light bulb hanging over my bed.
Baby, baby, baby, light my way.
Oh, come on, baby, baby, baby, light my way.

Do You Think Of Me?
Ooh, whoa
Oh
Do, do, do, yeah
Ooh oh
I wonder if you think of me
Somewhere in the shadows of your mind
Ooh
Although our love could never be
I find I think about you all the time
Mmm baby
Am I in your fantasies the way you always wander into mine?
Ooh
Are you longing endlessly, just like me deep inside?
Oh baby, baby
Chorus:
When the nights are dark and cold
Do you think of me, do you think of me?
And when you're lying all alone
Do you think of me, do you think of me?
When you feel the touch of another love
Do you think of me, do you think of me?
Am I the one you're dreaming of?
Do you think of me, do you think of me?
Ooh
I picture you embracing me
We drift away and leave the world behind, baby
But it's only make-believe
Love can be so unkind
Oh baby, baby, baby
Chorus
(Ooh)
(Do you think of me)
(All alone)
(Of another love)
(Am I the one you're dreaming of?)
Oh, ooh
Hey
Tell me baby
'Cause I need you babe
Really want you baby
Oh
And oh

(Oh, and when you're lying all alone)
(Whoa)
(When you feel the touch of another love)
(Baby, baby, baby)
(Am I the one you're dreaming of?)
You, oh
Oh I need you so bad
When I'm lying all alone baby
Ooh baby
Tell me do you
Oh, oh, oh

Beautiful One
Oh no so beautiful
So beautiful
I'd give my flesh for yours
I'd sacrifice everything
You are my door to a new beginning
A lucky charm potato pie
So sweet you make me cry
I can't deny
The way you make me feel inside oh
You are the beautiful one
And I love to hold you until the sun
Goes down on your soul
Have mercy on me
I'm crazy 'bout you
Look at all the things your lift make me do
You are my soul when there's no music to play
Oh I wanna marry someone like you someday
You are the beautiful one
And I love to hold you until the sun
Goes down on your soul
Oh beautiful one, don't you ever go
Don't you ever go, don't you ever go
Don't you ever go
Can't you hear the bells ringing,
Doves crying in the air
With this ring I promise to always be right there
Through the good and the bad times forever yours
I will remain, with your love baby in my life
You know we can stop the rain, yeah
You are the beautiful one
And I love to hold you until the sun
Goes down on your soul
Oh beautiful one, don't you ever go
Don't you ever go, don't you ever go
Don't you ever go

Oh baby yeah
Don't you, don't you
Don't, don't, don't
Don't, don't, you leave, no, oh

Hush Baby
hush baby dont cry,
ino all these problems just multiply,
hush baby dont feel sad,
things couldnt be that bad,
hush baby dont feel like you want to die,
we all have problems i cant deny.
hush baby dont weap tonight,
just be happy and sleep tight,
hush baby dont feel like your alone,
just talk to someone and make your problems known,
hush baby dont use that blade and feel the pain,
because that just makes you insane.

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.

Lets Put The X In Sex
I got a letter just the other day
She sent a picture, but she didnt sign her name
She wore high heels and a little black lace
I knew her body, but I couldnt see her face
She didnt leave a number, not an address or a clue
But something in that photograph reminded me of you
Baby, lets put the x in sex
Loves like a muscle and you make me wanna flex
Baby, lets put the x in sex
Keep it undercover, baby let me be your private eye
I got a call in the middle of the night
Heavy breathin never sounded quite so nice
She said oh yeah, I wish that I was there
I asked who was calling, but she wasnt playing fair
Sometimes you gotta suffer for the pleasure that you seek
Youre beggin for an eyeful but you only get a peek
Baby, lets put the x in sex
Loves like a muscle and you make me wanna flex
Baby, lets put the x in sex
Keep it undercover, baby let me be your private eye
I heard somebody knockin so I opened up the door
She wore a hat, shades, and a trench coat
Wasnt wearin that much more
She said she knew my secrets but I didnt have a clue
Then I saw those black lace panties and I knew that it was you
Baby, lets put the x in sex
Loves like a muscle and you make me wanna flex
Baby, lets put the x in sex
Keep it undercover, baby let me be your private eye
Lets put the x in sex
Loves like a muscle and you make me wanna flex
Baby, lets put the x in sex
Keep it undercover, baby let me be your private eye
Lets put the x in sex
Loves like a muscle and you make me wanna flex
Baby, lets put the x in sex
Keep it undercover, baby let me be your private eye
Lets put the x in sex
Loves like a muscle and you make me wanna flex
Baby, lets put the x in sex

The Room That Was Locked
we talk about nothing last night
and for the past few nights about the room that was locked.
long time ago, even the mere mention of that room
they remember, the old folks always reminded us
of the penalties, for the mere use of words,
and there was fear and there was the suppressed silence
that eventually bothered each of those who thought about it,
except for one man, who one day, with all his anger,
got a bit piece of wood, the one left by the termites,
and hit the room that was always locked, and when its
door was broken, they all went it, to know what secret lies
inside the abandoned room that was forbidden.
to their aghast, there is nothing there.
except perhaps, the mere fear about its being forbidden.

Penny lover
(lionel richie, brenda harvey-richie)
The first time I saw you
Oh, you looked so fine
And I had a feeling
One day youd be mine
Honey you came along and captured my heart
Now my love is somewhere lost in your kiss
When Im all alone its you that I miss
Girl a love like yours is hard to resist
Oh, oh, ooh, ooh, oh
Penny lover, my loves on fire
Penny lover, youre my one desire
Tell me baby could this be true
That I could need someone, like I need you
Nights warm and tender
Lying next to you
Girl I surrender
Oh, what more can I do
Ive spent all of my life in search of your love
Now theres one more thing Id like to say
Dont you ever take your sweet love away
Girl Ill do anything, just please stay
Oh, oh
(bridge)
I dont understand it, oh whats come over me
But Im not gonna worry, no not anymore
cause when a mans in love, hes only got one story
Thats why my love is somewhere lost in your kiss
When Im lost and alone its you that I miss
With a love like yours, its hard to resist
Ooh, ooh, oh

Penny lover, dont you walk on by (dont you walk on by)
Penny lover, dont you make me cry (dont you make me cry baby)
Penny lover, dont you walk on by (dont you walk on by)

As I work with my words as medium
I want to be profound
Deep, deeper than what i
Can possible swim
But I have seen
The limitations
Of words as medium
Of my thoughts
How can I put the
Color red
Of an apple
In words
Or the scent
Of lavender
In syllables
Here you are
Reading me
And I do not want
To disappoint
You, my reader
I want to create
A world of sensations
For such is the
World of poetry
I have long wanted
You to feel
My sadness in
Letters
My loneliness
In a single
Letter
This
i
Or...... ............................... me...................................
I want you to listen
To me
In the hush of the wind
In syllables
I want you to
Read my joys
In my phrases
Sometimes
I have given
You sentences
stanzas
I want you to
Be at home
With my words
But these are
Just words
And I must
Have failed
In bringing
Back to life
Your senses
Hopelessly
They have long
been dead
words, words, words,
And
Even this whole
Poem
Is not enough
Let me try
Again
On some
Coming
Illustrations
Birds falling
Their wings clipped
Leaves blown
Detached from
Their stems
Trees threatened
About the news
Of the coming storms
Oh I am so sorry
Your senses are sleeping
