The Chant Of Boredom

i repeat words
and i have a chew
of my syllables

love
love
love
love

crazy this mind is
crazy
having gained all the years
and yet can still
mishandle an error
oft repeated

i have focused on the
form
and is misled by its
contours
its lines like labyrinths
of the confused
mind

in willingness
to be lost
to such a ecstasy
that cannot be
easily forgotten

the promises are
rains
beyond the paths
of the gutters
overflowing

there is this
collaboration to be
destroyed
a form of masochism
because of the
beatings of
the flesh


i rest upon
time
and pierces upon
the form
going deeper
into the ramifications
of reason

i sleep upon
the breasts of time
and at the center of
its meaning
i regain the composure
of truth

lotus position
i give a bloom of my flower
arm
to the sky

i chant the song
of the leaves
i simulate the
posture of the
pond

and so here i am with
you
beyond the reach of the
flesh

in peace and harmony
with this poem

Let Me Be The One To Love You More

i waited all these years for you
past rains pour on me and they dry through time in my hair

i keep my words
and let these words stay faithful in my diaries

you finally appear in the form of mere thought
inside my mind

let me have you in that state
let me love you more as air inside my nostrils my lungs my heart

for you my love
these lines are dedicated

You'll Miss Me Love

you’ll miss me love
when you hear these words
you’ll miss me love
and when they start to hit home for you
then think about all the times we could have made things right
you’ll miss me love
when you need me
like I did the day you told me that you didn’t love me
I couldn’t wait any more
even knowing that my heart was going to be destroyed
by the same words that make me smile
day after day
the first day your lips smiled at me
I was captured instantly
the first time I looked into your eyes
I was hipmatized

ya I was the crazy one to ever think that you could love me
but if you dream they might come true
they also can be destroyed in just a few words
You’ll miss me love
cause when your holdin her know that it’s killing me
let that guilt of not being my man
be the reason that you cant sleep
and every time you feel her touch I pray to god
it’s not enough
cause I love you
yes I need you
you’ll miss me love until you finally realize that you love me
I’ll be here waiting for you
to be the one holding me
every time you read my words
you’ll miss me love

Who Will Love Me Now

(graham russell)
Who will love me now
Who will love me now
(repeat)
Well I tried to give up
Walking the streets when I was with you
Snug as a bug in a rug
Never been so alone thinking about you
Who will love me now
Who will love me now
(repeat)
Trying on my own
But living alone is one thing I can never do
I could end it all now
But Im not that crazy
Who will love me now, who will love me now
(repeat)
Oh I need all the love
That you once used to give me
Words are never enough
Now you cant be with me
I need all the love
But who will take my hand and show me how
Who will love me now
Being home by myself
Believing so much youd walk through the door
And tell me you think Im a fool
But you wont do that now
Youve done it so often
Who will love me now, who will love me now
(repeat)
Trying on my own
But living alone is one thing I can never do
I could end it all now
But Im now that crazy
Who will love me now, who will love me now
(repeat)
Oh I need all the love
That you once used to give me
Words are never enough
Now you cant be with me
I need all the love
But who will take my hand and show me how
Who will love me now

Give the Love

Give the love before it’s gone
Give all the love before it’s gone, it’s gone
Before it’s gone by fate

Give the love before it’s faded
Give a whole love before it’s faded, it’s faded
Before it’s faded by time

Give the love before it’s turned
Give the best of love before it’s turned, it’s turned
Before it’s turned to hate

Give the love before it’s erased
Give the sincere love before it’s erased, it’s erased
Before it’s erased by doubt

Give the love before it’s broken
Give the sweet love before it’s broken, it’s broken
Before it’s broken by hurt

Give the love before it’s lost
Give the faithful love before it’s lost, it’s lost
Before it’s lost to temptation

Give the love before it’s changed
Give your dreaming love before it’s changed, it’s changed
Before it’s changed by realization

Give the love before it flies
Give an unbinding love before it flies, it flies
Before it flies by love

Give the love before it’s tired
Give the passionate love before it’s tired, it’s tired
Before it’s tired by coldness

Give the love before it is hidden
Give the touch of love before it is hidden, it’s hidden
Before it is hidden by fear

Give the love before it’s forbidden
Give an innocent love before it’s forbidden, it’s forbidden
Before it’s forbidden by rule

Give the love before it’s indifferent
Give the undying love before it’s indifferent, it’s indifferent
Before it’s indifferent by unrequited

Give the love before it’s shattered
Give a strong love before it’s shattered, it’s shattered
Before it’s shattered by despair

Give the love before it’s crazy
Give the unconditional love before it’s crazy, it’s crazy
Before it’s crazy by blindness

Give the love before it plays
Give the pure love before it plays, it plays
Before it plays with lie

Give the love before it’s forgotten
Give the greatest love before it’s forgotten, it’s forgotten
Before it’s forgotten by people

Transistors and Tubes

now women are like transistors
and men are just like tubes
and women can be like sisters
and men will act like boobs
men are simple, women complex
women see men as big red necks
men are simple
men are simple
men see women as sex objects

so now women are transistors
girls are multitasking
being smarter than the misters
thank you just for asking
women are true and love their man
loving him, as much as she can
women are true
women are true
it’s been this way since time began

here’s the reason, men are like tubes
they will forget her mind
talk to her heart but watch her boobs
thinking of her behind
men can’t devote their heart to one
they’ll run around and just have fun
men can’t devote
men can’t devote
I still love that son of a gun

Crazy Enough

I am crazy enough to jump off a bridge for you
Even when i have seen you only once.
I am crazy enough to still be thinking about you
Even when i know nothing of you at all
crazy enough to build castles in the sky
crazy enough to imagine you and me
crazy enough to never see
the lie of you
I am crazy enough to stand in the rain
so i might see you once more
crazy enough to follow you home
so i can see you for a while
and i am crazy enough to want to be your
sickness so that you might go unhindered
crazy enough that no pain hurts me deeply
crazy enough that i cant let go
i am crazy enough to want to die for you
and there is nothing known about you
i am crazy enough to want to kidnap you
and watch you grow old in the cupboard of my mind
crazy enough to kill you so i might have you forever
crazy enough to only think
' if not mine no one else's
crazy enough that i might want to haunt you
I am crazy enough to hear what i want
crazy enough to hurt you so i might love you more
crazy enough to offer my soul
for you
crazy enough to want to
be you
i am crazy enough to say that
i don't know you except by sight
but i love you all the same

I'm Eighteen

Lines form on my face and hands
Lines form from the ups and downs
I'm in the middle without any plans
I'm a boy and I'm a man

I'm eighteen
and I don't know what I want
Eighteen
I just don't know what I want
Eighteen
I gotta get away
I gotta get out of this place
I'll go runnin in outer space
Oh yeah

I got a
baby's brain and an old man's heart
Took eighteen years to get this far
Don't always know what I'm talkin' about
Feels like I'm livin in the middle of doubt
Cause I'm

I get confused every day
Eighteen

Lines form on the left and right

I'm a boy and I'm a man
I'm eighteen and I LIKE IT
Yes I like it
Oh I like it
Love it
Like it
Love it

Sonnet 7

my heart's prophecy foretells your absence
though mind for this no reason can give,
predicting soon removal from my presence
of your form, yet form within must live.

and if within, then by which robber
shall that form be stolen? if i'm the thief
who removes such treasure, spiriting other
self away, inconstant proves my love's belief.

shall it be said that my love is untrue
and be found inconstant, as passing vain?
then justice make unmerciful, law eschew,
wisdom make folly, all my sins retain.

your form, by law, must constant shine,
proving my heart heir to robber mind.

Yes its Crazy Love and Yes I am Crazy

Yes its Crazy Love and Yes I am Crazy
Crazy not because I lost my mind, it's because you steal my mind
Crazy not because of psychological disorder, it's because you effect on my mood
Crazy not because I transmigrate(Majnoon) personality, it's because you make me 2nd (Majnoon)
Crazy not because I forget all the world except u, it's because you make me to forget
Crazy not because I see everything green n blue, it's because you make me see everything in different color
Crazy not because I forget how to smile r laugh, it's because you took all my happiness
Crazy not because I lost the test r feeling, it's because you control on my all sensors
Crazy not because I forget how to live, it's because you took all my life
Yes I am Crazy and Yes its Crazy love

Let There Be Light/ Spirits Dancing In The Flesh

Chorus:
Let there be light
Let there be joy
Let there be love
And understanding
Let there be peace
Throughout the land.
Verse:
Lets work together
In harmony
Lets build a better world
No suffering
And in times of darkness
Just reach out
cause there is a promise
It wont be denied
Repeat chorus six times
Narration:
This is truly paradise
Being here in this celestial garden
With all the ones you love
Where nothing dies or ever grows old
And to be bathed in light
That cast no shadow
Yes
This is the kingdom within
Still you know
Sometimes I miss seeing and feeling
The spirits dancing in the flesh
Spirits dancing in the flesh
Intro:
Cant you see them all around
Theyre all around us
Spirits, spirits dancing all around us
Chorus - chant:
Spirits
Dancing in the flesh, the spirits
Spirits
Dancing in the flesh, the spirits
Spirits
Dancing in the flesh, the spirits
Spirits
Dancing in the flesh, the spirits
All over, all over, all over

Its Love, Its Love, Its Love...

Its love, its love, its love -
I am going crazy, I am going mad -

Its so sensuous, its kind of awesome and blithe
to be in love, to be in your thoughts;

Its love, its love, its love -
I am going crazy, I am going mad -

When I miss you my heart feels the heat;
When I am with you every moment becomes sweet;

Its love, its love, its love -
I am going crazy, I am going mad -

Sans you my days become lengthier;
So do my nights turn out to be -

Its love, its love, its love -
I am going crazy, I am going mad -

I am still in a maze which season is this;
amiss in love, amiss in pain;

Its love, its love, its love -
I am going crazy, I am going mad -

Simple words become splendid ode's,
courtesy your so sweetways, voice and thoughts;

Its love, its love, its love -
I am going crazy, I am going mad -

- to you my love

Crazy Love

We can't change the way we were
But we can change the way we are
All I really wanted
From this crazy love
Was a night so full of stars
That our hearts could not pretend
Oh what I wouldn't give
To have that crazy love again
I believe in second chances
And I'm holding on for sure
To your crazy love
To your crazy love
Crazy love
I lived my l life for you
But now I'm left with me
Hanging on to pieces
Of what used to be
And no matter how I try
When I feel another's touch
It brings me back to why
I miss our crazy love so much
I believe in second chances
And I'm holding on for sure
To your crazy love
To your crazy love
Crazy love
Yes I believe in second chances
And I'm holding on for sure
To our crazy love
It was crazy love

Crazy

Girl, there are no words to say
What I feel in my heart
You, you're on my mind night and day
And it hurts me when we're apart
When you're not here by my side
There is nothing in this world for me
I guess I'm crazy, crazy for you can't you see
And although you may think it's crazy
Here is where I want to be
I will always need your love
Now, I can see every dream
When I look in your eyes
And though things never are what they seem
There is one thing that I realize
That there's no doubt in my mind
We can make this love go on forever
I guess I'm crazy, crazy for you can't you see
And although you may think I'm crazy
Here is where I'll always be
And I need you with me 'cause you are the dream
That finally came true for me
And all my life there'll be no one else
If I looked all my life there could be no one else
And for the rest of my life all I need is you

Time Lines

i have said nothing for time wont allow me.
time lines... time lines... time lines, what i felt for you has turned to confusion.
as time lines up our times together worry overshadows my 'influenced' judgement.
time lines..

our future perfectly sealed for i filled my heart with your promises.
time outlined your feelings for me..
times we spent together seem so far away like the times of the early bud.

our love has lost its will to florish like juliets rose.
time has outlined my affection for you.
time lines.. time lines..

the memories we once cherished together, the lines that have been put between us by time have destroyed the love once shared by you and me.
time has been thought to mend broken hearts ALAS, it has made matters worse.
time lines me and you. time lined our fate through spectatr critiques.
we possess souls joint together by time, YET its time that divides us.
time took its tole on our love.

is this forbidden love? that time has outlined

time lines my emotions of love for you..

time lines my emtions.
time lines.... time lines

I Will Follow My Mind

From between her breasts and between her legs,
I desire peace but not war;
And, who am i to put you in jail?
You are destroyed for lack of knowledge and,
I am wrapped up in the wings of love;
And i will follow my mind always to meet your heart.

This message is clear but,
Your words are but a few towards me;
And the law is like the Garden of Eden around us.

I will follow my mind and,
I will reach out for your kiss;
For the truth about love is all that you see around.

Am I Crazy

Words that keep on coming
into my crazy mind, but why?
they enter they run around,
confuse, they drive me mad.

Nuisance this world of ours,
silly too the words that come,
they go away to come again,
in and out, they roundabout.

Turning they fly into my mind,
where or how who made these
crazy words come in, silly too
To I find my mind so troubled.

Am I mad, am I sane, am I crazy,
am I nuts, am I around the bend,
am I creating, do I have a problem,
do I have a gift for crazy thoughts?

Is it wrong to question, wrong to ask,
is the world mad or am I pretty dumb,
or should I become like a good sheep,
become a flock, a clique, a tag along?

I need to have an answer or a reply;
life is everywhere, so beautiful to see,
people love, they have their families,
they help each other, they marry too.

In all the crazy words, questions found;
if our world is full of beauty, full of growth,
if we love someone who is a human being,
a member of the human race that cares.

Most try to make a better world to live,
yet some who believe in this or that,
try to sweep the love the care away,
they kill, they hurt, they make the war.

Why use weapons to destroy beauty
of our world, make the bombs, the guns
that kill, spoil our world, hurt, injure
wound people, damage work that’s built?

If you can say my crazy words are wrong,
and give good reasons why you’d rather war,
kill people, destroy their homes their lives,
destroy trust, truth, spread hate not love.

Than live a life of love, harmony, of peace.
Convince me of your love for all mankind,
Only then and with much persuasion will I
be a good sheep, who follows, tags along.

Indifferent, unconcerned by worlds at war.

The First Poem

The first poem I ever read
is the first words I ever said.
The words I love you
written by this beauty's tongue
turned a heart rosy red from a somber blue
and made me burn for my heart was wrung.
The first poem I ever read
is the first poem I ever said.
On her poetic lips love words refined
and shaped a sonnet on her flesh defined
On those lips I read a poet's song
And knew it was there my lips belonged.
The first poem I ever read
is the first words I ever said.
I love you, I love you
What does it mean?
These words said, to start anew
something pure and something serene.
The first words I ever read
is the first words I ever said.
Those first words she whispered into my ear
And in my heart, her poem stood near
Those are the most beautiful words one ever said
I love you, I love you, will live till its dead.
The first poem I ever read
is the first words I ever said.
I read her lips, I love you, I love you..
now to sleep I go in love's sweet bed.

Why did you mess it up
Cause i wont be learnin'

But i had to learn the hard way
Now i'm so confused
What am i to do
I'm caught up in this madness
Something please take me away
Chorus
I'm losing sleep, and i cant eat
Can't even think

I hate your guts, love you so much
I'm crackin' up

And i bought it
Should of kept a reciept
