Simple Thought
Waiting...
Just until
Someone comes
To claims me...
Nature's
Mutation
Tossed away
From all care...

As I ventured to the Wood
As I ventured to the wood,
I stopped to draw on dewy air; let
Droplets shimmer in my hair, that
Rested on my tranquil head – as
In a sense of cosy bed.
As I ventured to the wood,
A gesturing cuckoo perched above,
And then in song with cooing dove,
‘You're welcome’, bade he, ’Enter please
To roam our land with gentle breeze.’
As I ventured to the wood,
A fallow deer of limpid eye
Gave care to glance at lucky I.
The heavenly aura 'bout her glow had
Charmed me, like a fine Bordeaux.
As I ventured to the wood,
A dazzling flower waved her face
In blazing show of dance and chase, and
Reddened bright in shade of dawn, she
Flirted like a prancing fawn.
As I ventured to the wood,
A butterfly had graced my arm,
And knowing I bid him no harm, he
Splayed for me hypnotic wing in
Colours for to urge me sing!
As I ventured to the wood,
The radiant sun shone down on me.
He flushed and beamed ‘I say to thee,
You bless your land; be filled with pride, and
Cherish e’er yon countryside! ’

So Now I Am Free
So now I am free-
I stay up half the night
Then sit in coffee shops
Drinking coffee-
I don't care what it tastes like,
Writing poetry...
I know the instant I try to get up
I will fall asleep-
The action would be too abrupt,
There are but interludes
Which interpose
And interrupt...

Self Image
Territory
Who's
Am I on? ...
There is but
One
Proprietor...
How could I be
Trespassing
Here? ...
I just wonder!

To The Woman In The Shadow
If it ceases to be yours
When you cease to be you
Then what is yours
And who are you
To tell me where to go
Or where I cannot sleep
Or what you own?
Sorry so-called love,
Try the next guy...

You Will Go To A Place
One day you will go to a place
And I will not be there
Maybe by spring you will sit
Next to motionlessness
Brokenhearted
Deeply thinking about me
But I will not be there...

You Won't Last
You won't last
In this sleep
If your forgetfulness
Be a halo of beauty
And if your heart wants
Only one complaint
That will be sufficient...

What You Feel
What you feel
Is not illusion
Only shadow
By confusion
Two eyes cry
For one solution
Desperate for
Resolution...

Honestly (Love Ballad) :
If you say you really love me.
Take some time to show you care.
And if you care alot about me.
I will care alot for you.
Honestly! This is how much I love you.
Honestly! This is how much I care.
Honestly!
Don't think of ways to cheat or hurt me.
Don't think of ways to deceive my heart.
And don't forget, I truly love you.
Don't forget, I'm truly yours.
Honestly! This is how much I love you.
Honestly! This is how I feel.
Honestly! This is how much I love you.
Honestly! This is how much I care.
Honestly!
Try to give me peace and pleasure.
Try to give me what I need.
What I need is all your loving.
All your love is what I need.
Because I'm the one who really loves you.
I'm the one who really cares.
Honestly!
Honestly!
Honestly! This is how much I love you.
Honestly! This is how much I care.
Honestly!

Tell Me The Truth
Take a stand and let me know
Which direction we shall go
A nearer time than today
Shall not again come our way...
Hearts be true yet hands be still
Paralyzed, they wait until
The moments have all but passed
Few in reach are left to grasp...
Like a ghost crept out at night
Moaning still his weary plight
Haunts the chambers where he lived
The life he spent unfulfilled...
The vapors of something lost
Into composition tossed
Makes this unnatural ghost
A most disconsolate host...
I fear that's what's left of me
An unrepairable deficiency
Truth cannot be falsified
Somewhere-it appears
In full bloom and more sincere...

Why Have You Begun To Speak
Why have you begun to speak
In this season
The faith of friends
Has not flowered yet...
So where are you going
So fast my dear friend?
Only you got the answer...

Two Hearts, One Love
One life
Is finite
Two are
Constantly
Recombining
In infinite
Possibility...
They free
Each other
The way
Of lovers
Escaping past
The sentinel
Of eternity...

You Stand Beside A Star
You stand beside a star
and together you go out
In a night where day breaks
Suddenly...and in this leaving
No one sees you in the light...
O! beautiful whiteness
O! sorrowful traveler...

Softly
Softly, softly
Fading
Like the dye of
An old garment
Until
I am
Trapped in the darkness...
It is like this
Being lost
And if I can't
Find my way
Back again
I will be
Colorless...

To You Only
Exploration by
The lead of deception
A grip of fraudulent rope
Misdirection
A harness to a fake
Chariot of hope,
Reversed acceleration
A practical joke?

Wondering
Where is it?
That explanation I've been looking for-
I must have misplaced it or perhaps
It's hiding...
Somewhere in the back of my brain
Or asleep-dreaming
Scheming my demise actively
Plotting to assault my sincerest hopes
Seducing even my behavior...

She Comes Still Around
She comes still around
Every now and then...
Neither old or young
Never to be tired...
She is not like herself
But I can recognize her....
When she beckons me
One step closer....
However, I can still smell
The scent of her body
And envision the magic
Of her beauty....
Just memories remain
Of great moments
We once shared...

You Swing Your Eyes To Ours
You swing your eyes to ours
And you are astonished
By the things you see
The sights we see
That no one has seen
Or
The sights you do not see
Of green! Of white...
But, what different does it make
The things you do not see?
That is Life....
That is Destiny...

Still
I still hear my heart
Beating loudly like drums
Calling you at every instant
Searching for you
From place to place
Lost in time and shadow
Traveling through
A never-ending path
That leads to nowhere...

Mother Nature
I want her so bad
Mother Nature has a hold on me
I want her so bad
Mother Nature won't you let me be untied?
'Cause it hurts my pride
To be tossed off like the morning covers
And crossed off, like her other lovers
Casually
I see her walking by my window- mhmmhmmhmmhmm!
It seems to me I know her well.
But like the flowers in the spring-time,
Growing toward the sunshine,
Her beauty falls upon me in a fragrant spring-time spell
And I want her so ba-aa-aad
Mother Nature has a HOLD on me
I want her so bad
Mother Nature won't you let me be untied?
'Cause it hurts my pride
To be tossed off like the morning covers
And crossed off, like her other lovers
Casually
Is she an icy winter woman? Mm-hhmm!
That chills my body when she's near
Sweet fever in the morning...
I don't know if I'll survive.
She walks by me as though she didn't
Know I was alive
And I want her so ba-aa-aad
Mother Nature has a hold on me
I want her so bad
Mother Nature won't you let me be untied?
'Cause it hurts my pride
To be tossed off like the morning covers
And crossed off, like her other lovers
Tossed off like the morning covers,
Crossed off, like her other lovers...
Tossed off like the morning covers,
Crossed off, like her other lovers...
