Loves true meaning!

Loves True Meaning
Take time to compromise
If you have to criticise
Choose words that are wise
Or you may have to pay a price

Indulge in patience
Try to experience
the good and the bad
and make reference
to everything without pretence

Show each other respect
Rather than detect and inspect
What you do not like
Your different ways
You must accept

There has to be an element of trust
telling lies is the worst
The truth always comes out eventually
and then you are bust

Love with a passion
Give it your all
Do not ration
Use your imagination
Spice it all up
Work your way from
the bottom to the top
And don't you ever stop!

Stop the mind games

You were always too wild a beast to tame
I suppose I have myself to blame
for falling into your mindless traps
Now crying and sitting on your lap

Your powerful grip
has set a spell on me
on this particular love trip
I can only now but weep

I beg of you to
Stop the mind games
I ask you gently
Stop the mind games

They have the same pattern
The are always the same
I suppose I have myself to blame

You pick up the phone
Then tell me you are speaking
to another lover for fun
Its only my jealousy you get in return

You have an excuse
each time you abuse
my trust

You have an excuse
each time you abuse
my time

You have an excuse
each time you abuse
my self respect

Need I forget to mention
You never pay attention
to me in public
Telling me to wait
For a better show in private

I beg of you to
Stop the mind games
I ask you gently
Stop the mind games

Why don't you be brave
be straightforward
Tell me what you want and what you don't want
May be something good can still be saved

Silence the lie!

Silence, I say Silence
Stop the pretence
Halt the building of that fence
Between you and the truth
The truth can be rather intense
But wouldn’t you rather the truth
Than a lie be your preference

Why feed on
A lie so long?
Why shelter
A lie so strong?
When there is a fight
The only one flung
Will be you

Silence the lie
Before I cry
Silence the lie
Before I die
Because of someone up high
Like you and I
That ignores my cries

Thank you

Thanks for being you
Thanks for being true

For you I always have a dozen thanks
For you I forever have a bank of thanks
And let me be quite plain and frank
I hold you high up in my heart of ranks

Thank you being there
Showing me constant love and care
Thank you for your patience
It does play upon my conscience

This eight letter word
For you is a price I can always afford
And when my voice in appreciation clanks
With these words just know it aint no prank

Thank you for your humour
With you laughter is an emotion I can explore
Thank you for being nice
They say true friendship comes without a price

Thank you for being you
And for demonstrating what it is to be true
Thank you being good
And for forever lifting up my fluctuating mood

Love grows

I know love grows
Yet sometimes its growth is painfully slow
That I just want to say goodbye and go

When moments are hard
And one is down and sad
I look into my own backyard
And ask where the love is?

For if love grows
When it is really necessary, why does it not show?
Instead love tries to hide away in grass that’s low
Or avoids those times by starting a gigantic row

Patience my dear! Says love
Love grows
Time will tell
Things will flow
Eventually love itself will surrender and bow

Its time to let go!

Its time to let go
I know!
I am holding on tight
As if it is my right
And its not

Its time to tie my shoe laces
With a knot and start walking on
Once where there was love,
There lies only emptiness
Broken dreams embedded within foggy steams
Everything has become familiar
Nothing to excite or ignite the passion

Once love sped like an express train
That I forgot the famous words “go-slow”
Hence we have already reached our destination
Without taking time to explore before condemnation

'I know', I whisper with a sigh
Its time to let go
There is still time to save ourselves
From feeling ridiculously low

Motivation

Love isn’t any motivation
Wealth isn’t any motivation
Health isn’t any motivation
Create not more confusion

Inspiration and motivation is a pair
Imagination follows and is near
Near enough to make you desire
Near enough to make you crave instead of tire

Like the nutrients that enhance the growth of a plant
Motivation is the force from your self within
The invisible voice urging you to win
Motivation is when you make it routine
To implement actions to show you are keen

1st of December

You must remember
Tomorrow is the first of December
It is time to start thinking
Of your new year resolutions
Avoid unnecessary temptations
Prevention is better than finding solutions

Give up the cigarette
Forget the day you first met

Give to the poor
Not after but before

Greet the elderly
With respect very carefully

Think of positive change
It is always there at close range

Give up the booze
It only stinks of ooze

Set aside time to pray
Set aside time to play
If you have to
Why not change your ways

Tomorrow is the first of December
Remember, a new beginning
Is always the way forward to winning

The things I love with a passion

I rock and roll with passion
I talk out my soul with a passion

I eat good food with passion
I defeat bad mood with a passion

I sleep well with passion
I weep hell with a passion

I dream endlessly with passion
I gleam ceaselessly with a passion

I aim for money with passion
I do the same for honey with a passion

I listen carefully with passion
I glisten dutifully with a passion

I search for fame with passion
I research to blame with a passion

I walk everyday with passion
I talk and play with a passion

I embrace life with passion
I face nightlife with a passion

I laugh out with passion
I chaffe about with a passion

I cook with others with passion
I look at mothers with a passion

I touch gently with passion
I clutch tightly with a passion

I work hard with a passion
I rock mad with a passion

I gear up goals with passion
I stir up roles with a passion

I make friends with passion
I take weekends with a passion

I love kissing with passion
I love teasing with a passion

I make love with passion
I take from above with a passion

If push comes to shove
Label me old fashioned
For these are things I caption
In life with all my passion

The truth in you

I seek the truth in you
The weak lie is not you
So speak up, yes you

The truth hurts but it works
The truth simplifies and dignifies
The truth sooths preserving your youth

I ask the truth of you
Cry now, take a tissue
So speak up, yes you

The truth signifies and modifies
The truth is within and the best way to begin
The truth is a good start especially for sweethearts

I need the truth of you
Simply choose your venue
So speak up, yes you

The truth to any degree
Is a starting point to be free
Just like one and two make three
So speak up, yes you
If you agree

Your Trust

Your trust is what I desire
If you turn out to be a liar
like a raging fire
I will need seven daily weekly cures
Because there is only so much that I can endure

Innocent Man

An innocent man he was
The perfect gentleman
The kind of man
you could only spin out
in your endless dreams

He was declared guilty
and a sentence was passed
without a glance
before he even had a chance

An innocent man he was
A man of truth
A man of pride
A man whose words
would sit down gently by your side

Seeking for freedom
Seeking for justice
Seeking to be heard
judged wrongly instead

He was a man of love
He sought salvation from above
Nothing was straight
All the answers
were bent like a curve

An innocent man he was
With no regrets
His worst fear
he had already met
misjudged, complaints lodged

There were two sides
with options so wide
Only one was chosen
The other ignored
Where was the trust?
When was it lost?

What would it take
to sacrifice at stake?
To prove he was an innocent man

Still love you

I still love you
Care enough to wish you well
I will dream of our sweet kisses
Till they slip away in time
Out of grasp
And out of mind

I still love you
It hurts and its true
I know I have to set you free
Like a bird flying out of its nest
For the very first time

If only you could hear my heart
pounding and pounding
There might have been second thoughts
My tears I have bravely fought
Our dreams which we once dutifully sought
Now lie buried in forgotten grounds
It is with all my love
That I end these words
I still love you

Respect, Respect me

Respect, respect me, I say
In every single way
Respect me day by day

Don’t put me down
When we are out and about with people around
Playing me like a fool
Portraying me as one who never went to school

Respect me sweet heart
Till life sets us apart

Respect my needs
Listen and take heed

Respect to me is what means love
And not those commonly spoken words,
‘I love you’

To respect me is to publicly and privately honour me
To respect me is to listen attentively while I speak
To respect me is to bread and butter my desire to be free
To respect me is to stand by me when I am weak

Look up! Look up to me!
I may not be perfect
Nor a genius of an intellect
Respect, respect me & our love will stand erect!

A marriage of two

A marriage of two
is for love that is true

A marriage of two
is always something new

A marriage of two
happens sometimes out of the blue

A marriage of two
is worth it when its due

A marriage of two
is a marriage of trust
Many can find themselves lost
It can be an expensive cost

They are only very few
who have a clue
of when love accrues

A marriage of two
is about love making
It is not about
money raking

A marriage of two
can be bad
A marriage of two
can be sad
You should only be glad if
A marriage of two
is for love that is true

Gently my Friend

Gently my friend
Gently gently my friend
For your words only tend
To extend
The moment I descend
Upon you with the truth

Look at us
Let’s examine our personal fuss
That’s dissolved our years of harmonious union
And created total fusion
Of distrust and tension

How can you question my loyalty?
And condemn it as utterly faulty
When only yesterday
You pronounced me
As the best friend you ever had
Oh! My friend, how sad!

Think about what we’ve been through
We have hitched hiked the world together
Laughed and cried together while writing chapters of our book
Trust me our experiences have not been a fluke

We have been through the whole lot
I have watched you grow
With love, respect and admiration
I can predict what mood swings you are going to show
In a minute or a fraction in a reaction to my actions
Yet now you call me a slut

I know I have stood you up on numerous occasions
At restaurants, bars and clubs for celebrations
But did it ever occur to you
That I was going through a whole load of shit
Even contemplating personal defeat
Maybe I am saying this with a resentful tone
But there are so many times
Even with your presence I have felt alone

Gently, gently my friend
I strongly recommend
That we take our time and pretend
That this damage is repairable
Because from experience
Self defence is the worst type of defence
To impose between me and you

Let’s examine where we have gone wrong
My faith in you is still very strong
Is it because I lied to you
That is absolutely nothing new
You have known me for so long
To accept me for my weaknesses
When I do lie
It’s because I do try
Very hard to be perfect for you
I know its wrong, what I do
That’s why lately I try to be true
Because in my heart I truly value you


Gently Gently my friend
I know there was a time
I really hurt you when I took away your love
While tying to blend and extend my horizons
I took what we had for granted
I was only after my selfish needs

I was completely blind
And you were extremely kind
To forgive me
When I saw the light
Oh! Friend please don’t give up the fight
Let’s not plunge into a plight
Oh it will make such a pitiful sight

A Poets Message

As you flick through my pages
and surrender to my thoughtful and playful words
Remember I am just another actress
on this very frightful dark stage

As a poet
Its all about display
Its all about the audience
The booing or thunderous clapping
can be substituted
by bestowing me with genuine ratings

Your random comments
will be appreciated
any time, any place, any moment
as I am on a mission
To write a million words
spice up my wordly performance
with some occasional romance

I am on a mission to write
about the people, politicians and musicians
To write about the prostitutes
That roam the redlight district each single minute

I am on a mission to write about me and you
to write about the world
and everything thats brand new or true

Now and then
I may have the writers block
Its easy to laugh
Its easy to mock
But you inspire my imagination
You are all my inspiration
as you flick through my pages

Guide me to your Heart

What will it take?
for Heavens sake
to convince you
I will not be a mistake

Take my hands
Guide me to your heart
I may not be perfect
Take time to reflect
Before you insert
A barrier between us
Don't turn this
Into a big fuss

Can you not see?
what is real?
Can you not smell
the freshness of the open sea
Can you not feel
the love sensation here
That is about to explode
Why not let me unlock that heart
With your golden secret code

Guide me to your Heart
It is worth the risk
I want to whisk
you off to my magic land
So that you can feel
The true meaning of love
Like a white flying dove

For once
Trust your intuition
This is not a marriage
or an institution

I want to be there for you
When you are feeling blue
I know you feel this way too
The time is now due
Guide me to your Heart

The Truth about Life

The struggle goes on
Whichever direction you turn
There is no excluded section where you can run

The truth about life
Is merely to survive
From the moment you arrive
In birth, to the end of death

I will be your husband

For better or for worse
I will be your husband
But of you I quietly demand
Obedience and respect
I am the man of house
I am the man who's intellect

For a just cause
I will be your husband
I expect of you no fuss
When I have the last say
Of how we are to operate
each and everyday especially today

Work! Work! And Reap!

Work! Work! Work! And Reap!
Work! Work! Work! And Sleep!

Everyday most of we work
Some of us love to work
Some of us just want to rock
Some of us want to lie on a beach or take a walk
If we had our way, we could spend all day and talk

But work we all must
Or our lifestyles will go bust!
We may then have to readjust
To unacceptable standards of living in disgust

Work! Work! Work! And Reap!
Work! Work! Work! And Sleep!

We all have different professions
Some of us have silent confessions
We fancy someone at work with an obsession
Work is then fun with a passion until confusion

Work! Work! Work! And Reap!
Work! Work! Work! And Sleep!

There are jobs that are monotonous
The atmosphere is negatively outrageous
Nothing in the air signifies hilarious
Every single person is always very serious

Sometimes played at work
Is the kind of politics
That makes one quite sick
This is where the strong kick
Kick hardest the backside of the weak

But work we all must
Or our lifestyles will go bust!
As we find ourselves lost
And then try hard to readjust

So do we swallow?
Or is fighting back shallow
Will it leave in your pocket a dent that is hollow?
Or produce a scene labeled horror
Enough to leave you in tears of sorrow

I don't have all the answers
I know work is a living cancer
People at work ought to be a little nicer
Everyone needs to make a living including a dancer!
