We Die/And Abandon And Betray
WE DIE/ AND ABANDON AND BETRAY
We die
And abandon and betray
Those we most
Would not abandon and betray.
Teaching Faith in God’s Eternal Love
The only real legacy.

Those Who Betray And Lament
At THIS hour of the day.
And with time allowed,
Over the years to slip away.
Someone sits not to forget or forgive,
Those who intentionally took steps to offend,
With a doing of it they went ahead to inflict.
And at THIS hour of the day,
It would not matter who said what to have what's been done...
Wished away,
To acknowledge what took place.
Since what took place can not be erased,
From the mind of the one this misdeed continues to sit...
Long after it was considered someone's fun!
And at THIS hour of the day...
Wishing for a way to turn back the clock,
To prevent what should not have happened...
To have it stopped and blocked from a doing,
Is not on the mind of the one who is visited with memories...
At THIS hour of the day,
When one witnesses images from a distance...
A payback paid to those who betray and lament.
Those who betray and lament...
Grieve.
Those who betray and lament...
Can't sleep.
Those who betray and lament,
Become haunted.
Unwanted.
Those who betray and lament...
Grieve.
Those who betray and lament...
Can't sleep.
Those who betray and lament,
Become haunted.
Unwanted.
And have nobody near them to hear their pleas!
Those who betray and lament...
Grieve.
Those who betray and lament...
Can't sleep.
Those who betray and lament,
Become haunted.
Unwanted.
And have nobody near them to hear their pleas!

The Crossing Line
Split down the middle
two hearts
beat for love,
trespassing vows
that betray trust,
to find a balance
without destroying
their other halves
Two lines crossed
in secret,
betray trust
to find the balance between,
trespassed vows
Two hearts
yearning for love,
betray trust
to yearn for love
Two lovers
torn apart,
betray one another
to repair the trust
they have broken
Two loves
now irreparable,
inconsolable,
loose loves luster,
never again, to shine.

Stockholm Syndrome
I won't stand in your way
let your hatred grow
and she'll scream and she'll shout
and she'll pray and she had a name.
Yeah she had a name
I won't hold you back
let your anger rise
and we'll fly and we'll fall and we'll burn
no one will recall, no one will recall
this is the last time I'll abandon you
and this is the last time I'll forget you
I wish I could
look to the stars
let hope burn in your eyes
and we'll love
and we'll hate
and we'll die
all to no avail
all to no avail
this is the last time I'll abandon you
and this is the last time I'll forget you,
I'll forget you
I wish I could
this is the last time I'll abandon you
and this is the last time I'll forget you
I wish I could
I wish I could

Abandon
I leave you; I leave you with your life,
with your lovers, your adventures and projects,
I leave you without my thoughts, sad and
wounded, without my questions
without my broken answers, but do
not believe as a fact everything, do not
believe never believe, this false abandon,
because I will be there when you least expected,
for example; in an old age maple tree with dark
nodding branches, or in far away galaxies that
shine higher when you are there gazing at them.
I leave you without the memories that lived in our
minds for decades, I leave you, I leave you. But never,
never be assure of all this ridiculous abandon, never
my darling, never because in this abandon I'll always
follow your steps, in anything you might
gaze at so hard that you disappear bringing me
back into your lonely world all over again.

Love, Love...
i shall betray you
for as many times
as you are still willing
to love me,
i am amazed
for you are still pure
and patient
and gentle, and kind
and ever loving
still
to test you,
i shall betray you for as many
times as you shall
love me,
you are love,
love you are love,
pity me,
i am not.

Though I am your isolated brook?
I never dream of my faraway rich relatives
Especially long Rivers and deep Oceans.
How could I betray my minnow friends
and abandon the wild flowers
O that orphan girl with the ragged doll
Beautiful widow who cries along the bank
and the lunatic who writes poetry?
I expect rain all the time to remain here
Though I am your isolated brook?

When God Abandons Me Will I Abandon God?
WHEN GOD ABANDONS ME WILL I ABANDON GOD?
When God abandons me will I abandon God?
When the last illness comes and there is no hope,
When I know I am lost to this world,
Will I still place my trust in God
To care for those I love that I will leave behind?
When God abandons me will I believe
That somehow in some other world I continue to be?
When God abandons me
Will I believe I am not really abandoned at all
Despite my pain and suffering as I die?

Equal reactions
Time was not far
To leave whom you’d wooed,
To abandon whom you’d craved
And to skip whom you’d admired
Time was not far
To leave who’d wooed you,
To abandon, who’d craved you,
And to skip, who’d admired you.
Time was not far
For those who would abandon,
Who would desert you
Or who would at least slip from you.

Evil Mind
Crawling through age with your anger and rage
Hiding away from your past
Here in this time we ain't living in crime
You can not ignore our rules
Don't try to challenge our God
Cause he's got the strength that no man possess
Don't be a pain in his ass abandon your evil thoughts
I am a man who is send to your land
To defeatyour mighty one
I will bring darkness with honour and pride
Please tell your Lord to hide
Don't try to challenge our God
Cause he's got the strength that no man possess
Don't be a pain in his ass abandon your evil thoughts
He have to fight I will challenge he's might
And soon I will rule this world
Don't be to sure our God will not fall
He will destroy your black force
Don't try to challenge our God
Cause he's got the strength that no man possess
Don't be a pain in his ass abandon your evil thoughts

Revelation
An angel with a wounded wing
And drops of blood
Can be a fraction of image,
Delved into a pulsatile light,
Having a duality that absorbs everything.
The pain of that angel
Is inside of me.
I can feel it
As a touch.
The light of a burning candle
And the drops of its wax
Keep the angel's incurable sadness.
His sadness is a dropp of love.
I see this angel
And I abandon my words.
I keep them enclosed in ideas
For ascesis.
I abandon my ideas and I keep them
Enclosed in my prayers
For ascesis.
I abandon my feelings
And I keep them in my soul
They are my feelings of love..
I see the wing bleeding,
I love my angel of light,
I feel the light,
That absorbs the darkness....
I'm in absorption...

So far as modern science is concerned, we have to abandon completely the idea that by going into the realm of the small we shall reach the ultimate foundations of the universe. I believe we can abandon this idea without any regret. The universe is infinite in all directions, not only above us in the large but also below us in the small.

Your Ability To Screw
I'd rather have you betray me with treason,
Openly to get it over with.
Than to learn...
You've been sneaking to sleep with me,
Under sheets heated.
To then discover from a friend,
That's just a part of your process...
To unify the community.
I'd rather have you betray me with treason,
Openly to get it over with.
But then again...
That is exactly what you have been doing.
And I was only focused on your ability to screw well.
Who knew,
No matter what you did I still wouldn't care.

Tomorrow
Oh, baby, dont let me down tomorrow,
Holding hands we both abandon sorrow,
Oh, for a chance to get away tomorrow.
Hey, babys got a lazy dday on sunday,
Heres a pound, we hang aroundtil monday,
Oh, baby dont you let me down on sunday.
Bring a bag of bread and cheese and find a shady spot beneath the trees.
Catch abreath of country air and run your pretty fingers thro my hair.
Tomorrow, when we both abandon sorrow.
Oh, baby, dont you let me down tomorrow,
Thro the week we beg and steal and borrow.
Oh, for a chance to get away tomorrow.
Honey, pray for sunny skies so I can speak to rainbows in your eyes.
Lets just hope the weather man is feeling fine and doesnt spoil our plan.
Tomorrow, when we both abandon sorrow.
Oh, baby, dont you let me down tomorrow,
Holding hands we both abandon sorrow.
Oh, baby, dont let me down tomorrow.
Oh, for a chance to get away tomorrow.
Baby, dont let me down tomorrow,
Baby, dont let me down tomorrow.
Oh, dont let me down,
Baby, dont let me down tomorrow.
Babys, dont let, let me down tomorrow,
Baby, dont let me down tomorrow.

Abandon Those Juggled Balls
There is a thin and fine line,
Between this and that...
Which is not finitely defined.
And easily snapped!
To pop, crack and become detached.
When one's patience has stretched,
To leave emotions stressed unrelenting...
Regrets publicly expressed,
Can damage some relationships...
With an ending them not to mend,
Ever again.
Abandon those juggled balls.
Drop them to let them fall,
Where they may.
Abandon those juggled balls.
Step forward with nothing to say.

Distress
Butterflies, trees and the clues for this triangle!
For i am in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.
Visualize the future with the expeditions of mankind and,
Do not distress yourself with the fruits of love;
For i am like an abandon colony.
A romantic dreamer,
And of the cheekbones to spare;
But, love can leave you uncertain! !
And like a 'Ghanaianlogist' in a distinctive territory,
For, i am like an abandon colony.
Aeronautics, astonautics, areodynamic;
Love can leave you uncertain! !
But, visualize the future with rthe expectations of life.
