Intensity of Her Eyes
Hypnotic drinks
And spellbound until dawn,
I’ve seen cities linger
In a moonlight haze.
Yesterday,
I was preoccupied
With mythical dreams
And exaggerated concepts
Of romantic defeat.
I have no explanations
For vanishing friends
Or inconclusive rendezvous,
No explanations
For when life
Comes to an end.
Confirming her words
By the intensity of her eyes,
Remarkable conversations
Float through the ether of eternity.
I don’t avoid priests
But my confessions
Have been in darkness
And about darkness.
Most of my acquaintances
Have been nowhere people
Existing in the landscape
Of temporary purpose,
But our feelings have been
Mutual and meaningful.
I’ve practiced
Mindfulness in meditation,
I’ve recited prayers
Before the homeless
And the extravagantly rich,
And it is hard to say
If either were impressed.
I’ve had a fascination
With ancient philosophical codes,
I’ve journeyed the highway
Of directionless destiny,
I’ve told girls
I was in love,
But I often feel
Like I’m experiencing
Mayan-like extinction of soul.
No one has taught me
Calibrated responses to love
In this scientific age
Of the emotions.
I’m discovering the phrases
To a lost sutra
Written in the sand
Protecting the heart
From any residue of insensitivity.

Shocked
Written: stock aitken waterman
1a:
Tell me Im only dreaming and Ill believe you
Cant see how this could be true
Surrounded by feelings I hardly recognise
I look for explanations Im taken by surprise
If you told me yesterday that I could feel this way
I would sure enough call you a liar to your face
Chorus:
Because Im shocked by the power
(shocked) ooh
Shocked by the power of love
I was rocked to my very foundations
Shocked by the power, shocked by the power
2:
Maybe this time tomorrow
Ill discover this aint really real
cos it struck me like lightning
Like a bolt out of the blue
Emotions inside me, all over you
Im high above the universe, losing track of time
And falling free
I cant believe that you are really mine
Chorus:
Rap:
Shocked, like the lightning from up above
Down from the heavens and it gave me love
From a man who respects me
Loves my mind as well as my body
No retreat and no surrender
Equal to you regardless of gender
Giving me love that is warm and tender
Thats why I gotta tell ya
You and I are of the same mind
It seems to me that were one of a kind
Its true to say that when love is blind
But then true love is so hard to find
You respect me and the things I do
It was meant to be
I was made for you
Open the door to my heart, its stopped
And Im shocked....
Chorus:
3:
Surrounded by feelings I hardly recognise,
I look for explanations Im taken by surprise.
cos it struck me like lightning,
Like a bolt out of the blue,
Emotions inside me, all over you.

M.J. Une
performances candle-lit
practiced and practiced the outbursts and sobs
the short, little gasps solidify the act
fell again and again for it
beautiful heaven
hidden by beautiful eyes
it's terrible how hard i try
explanations and confessions
pace back and forth, anxious and scared
secrets built up against the door
revelations in tension
beautiful heaven
hidden by beautiful lies
it's terrible how hard i tried
romantic lost lovers
calling out in psychic beckoning vibes
answered on the phone by absence and static
busy now under the covers
beautiful heaven
hidden by beautiful lies
it's terrible how hard i tried

Our Final Destination Is With God
What purpose is there
To live in darkness,
To make one’s life dark
Or to accept darkness?
A life void of love
Or generosity,
A life of petty pursuits
That fail to enrich another,
This is darkness.
A life that refuses
To accept the love
Of God or humans,
This is the ultimate
Extreme darkness.
When a person finds love
From the universe and for the universe,
There is a light that radiates within
For everyone else to see and feel;
When a human being views a flower
Or a sunrise, when he sees a small bird at dawn
And feels the rush of spiritual promise that says
The world is meaningful and beautiful
And sometimes kind, this is a powerful light.
Suffering and death are forms
Of unavoidable darkness,
An intense darkness that can crush a spirit
That fails to contrast the sadness with the joy,
The sorrow with the laughter,
The goodbyes with the hellos in life.
We must walk the line between darkness and light,
Between loneliness and happiness
Knowing our final destination is with God
Which is the victory of light over the darkness.
Divine Sunlight Rays of hope,
Nurture the light within us to always increase
And shine upon others with the promise
That every struggle can be overcome
And every battle against the heart or soul can be won,
May we live to know love and to share love,
May we be examples of the divine nature
Which is ever to uplift with kindness
And to bring the kingdom of heaven to earth.

My Angel (In The Darkness)
I know I haven't really been a good friend,
and I know I could of tried a little harder,
but you see I can't tell you,
how I feel about you,
the world would reject me if I did,
but I'm willing to try,
and go over the edge,
and show you how I Feel about you,
when we meet,
I was in such bad shape,
my life was crumbling all around me,
until I meet you,
my life was engulfed in darkness,
I was engulfed in my own self-pity,
I had an inescapable demon,
living inside of my head,
I had pain inside of heart,
I felting nothing but pain,
for months and months,
I thought it was inedible,
until I meet you that day,
not really suspecting anyone that would,
really care about me,
not suspecting that anyone that would even love me,
love me,
like the way that you do,
My Angel (In The Darkness)
My Angel (In The Darkness)
My Angel (In The Darkness)
I couldn't believe what I was seeing,
nor what I was saying or what I was hearing,
the world had rejected you for what you are,
and what you've done,
but do they have the eyes that I do?
was it insane of me,
to see you as the angel,
that I know you are,
and not the demon that they all make you out to be,
was I insane to see the goodness inside of you,
and was it crazy that you took the darkness outside of me,
My Angel (In The Darkness)
My Angel (In The Darkness)
My Angel (In The Darkness)
We spent each day,
and we spent each know confessing,
our sins to each other,
like it was alright,
and we knew we'd listen to each other,
but I must confess,
that’s not all that I need,
that’s not all that I want,
all that I need,
and all that I want is your love,
and your sweet choice,
the way that you would look at me and smile,
and tell me everything was going to be alright,
and just help me hold on a little bit longer,
hold on a little bit longer,
My Angel (In The Darkness)
My Angel (In The Darkness)
My Angel (In The Darkness)
she told me its okay,
to let your feelings go,
and tell people how you feel,
and if you love them,
but I couldn't really do that,
there was only one person that I've loved,
one person I could only love unconditionally
and love without temptation,
She’s My Angel (In The Darkness) ,
The only Angel I'm going to love,
My Angel (In The Darkness) ,
the only Angel I trust
My Angel (In The Darkness)
as she was there for me,
I'm going to be there for her,
I'm know her Angel In the darkness,
I am know the one that will love her unconditionally
and without temptation,
I just wanted her to know,
how much I love her and cherish her,
I love you,
My Angel (In The Darkness)

Dreams of Hemingway
When the streets stagger
In drunken defeat;
When all the romantic singers
Howl beneath lonesome bridges;
When my friends have disappeared
To distant cities or unkempt graves;
When the innocence of children
Or child-like hearts
Have been violated by parents or priests,
I have dreams of Hemingway
And the dawn of oblivion.

Yesterdays Letter
I wrote a letter yesterday
Just trying to explain
Couldnt find the words to say
Cause you are so far away, so far away
I wrote a letter yesterday
Its so hard for me to face
That it had to end this way
But my love will never change, will never change
When I search my soul to find the truth
About the love we shared
I wonder why youre no longer here
You can just walk away
But I dont feel the same
My heart still beats for you
Craves for you
Sings for you
And those feelings will never fade
I cant hide my pain
I can never hide the way I feel for you
Ive been talking in my sleep
About the way it used to be
Girl I pray that you hear me
Then Ill see you in my dreams
Oh, in my dreams
Well I cant forget the words you said
To pull away from my life
And no matter what Ill carry you inside
You can just walk away
But I dont feel the same
My heart still beats for you, breaks for you, sinks for you
And those feelings will never fade
I cant hide my pain
I can never hide the way I feel for you
Sooner or later your gonna realize
That this type of love happens once in your life
So open your eyes girl
And see what we could be
You can just walk away
But I dont feel the same
My heart still beats for you, breaks for you, sinks for you
And those feelings will never fade
I cant hide my pain
I can never hide the way I feel for you
You can just walk away
But I dont feel the same
My heart still beats for you, breaks for you, sinks for you
And those feelings will never fade
I cant hide my pain
I can never hide the way I feel for you

Who Is Rich?
I strive to be rich,
to travel on the roads,
of the capital cities,
in Sedan or limousine.
I work hard to be rich,
to find a lot in Beverly hills,
to buy an aircraft and
a hover to fly and float.
I work day and half night,
to be rich to others sight,
to smoke a cigar of an inch,
and a few girls to pinch.
scanty girls of Los vegas,
dress up, for a living,
trendy sad faced Indians,
walk alone for a living.
I want to be rich,
traveling as a rat,
through the holes of,
capital cities.
She wants to be rich,
He wants to be rich and
we want to be rich, but
people call us rich.

A Sigh into the Present Air...
things would have been better
if left untouched
like some women opting to
become virgins
not having seen any man
nor thought
of masculine symbols
like nature
the forest would have been better
if its trees are left
uncut
the weeds tall like grown up natives
the grasses spreading
without the
artificiality of
the manicure
of the mower
like a river flooding the land
overfilling banks
words would have been better
if not uttered
like raw emotions like
sushi
that you savor with your tongue
how delicious to see
all these things
and feelings
unadulterated by explanations
or justifications
of reason that does not want to be overpowered
by the innocence of ignorance
no apple on the esophagus
none about analysis
just plain description of what is there
nothing about
additions
or conceptualizations
i would have wanted
my love to be like this
but look at it now
this heart folded like an origami
deceiving you with a stork
feelings cut into pieces of
graffiti of pent up emotions
what they ought to be
what they must or
should have been
dado joints fitting into
rules
or universal concepts
lacking now
the originality of
truth...

BS'ing
No I don't know what you are saying.
And I'm not staying...
So spare your explanations.
No I could care less not more...
How you deliver what you say with sensation.
Do we have to go through this,
Again?
You and I are not matches that fit!
We're are not like gloves on hands,
Or two hands in a mit!
How many times must we go through,
This shit-uation?
We're not peas in a pod,
Or stained piss on a toilet!
None of the above for me and you suits!
Cough up and get that madness out!
Life with you brewing in doubt,
Is not what I am about!
No I don't know what you are saying.
And I could care less!
I'm not accepting another explanation...
Of how you took an ant hill,
A bouldering mountain of a mess!
Those are your confessions.
When those clouds clear from your head.
I want you to remember,
These last words to you said...
'Your love for me has long been dead!
What makes you think
I am on the brink and desperate,
To screw you without feeling on your bed? '
No I don't know what you are saying.
And I'm not staying...
So spare your explanations.
How many times must we go through,
This BS'ing shit-uations?

Spellbound
(mansfield/ oneill/ palmer)
Spellbound, obsessed, Im entranced, possessed
I swear by stars above
Ive never been so much in love
Caught up, entwined, in your embrace, its so divine
You are my all
No lookin back, too far to fall
Spellbound
Baby dont you know, you got me spellbound
Spellbound
Wrenched an unknown feeling from my heart
Baby doll you know you keep me spellbound
Im so high on love I wont come down
Oh oh what do we do?
You fell for me I fell for you
Bewitched, but adored
I never loved like this before
I had a dream
My wish was granted
We got a love, I never thought Id find
Under your spell, I stay enchanted
You cast a charm
Our love is so sublime
Spellbound
Baby dont you know, you got me spellbound
Spellbound
Wrenched an unknown feeling from my heart
Baby doll you know you keep me spellbound
Im so high on love I wont come down
Your kiss is ecstacy, so much intensity
I swear by stars above
Ive never been so much in love
Spellbound
Baby dont you know, you got me spellbound
Spellbound
Wrenched an unknown feeling from my heart
Baby doll you know you keep me spellbound
Im so high on love I wont come down
Spellbound
Baby dont you know, you got me spellbound
Spellbound
Wrenched an unknown feeling from my heart
Baby doll you know you keep me spellbound
Im so high on love I wont come down

Baby dont you know, you got me spellbound

Wrenched an unknown feeling from my heart

An Allegory
when i was small
i was taught that the meaning
of my life
lies inside the big dome
it is where destiny lies
all explanations possible
are contained in that book
kept inside the golden
casing,
life turns sour
and bitter and
sweetness seems
to be slippery like
an eel,
the dome does not help
and so i turned away
walked outside
and found this new place
outside the dome
trees and grass and
some dragonflies
clouds and cones
fine mornings
calm seas
there are lots of shapes and
colors and
odors
more explanations become possible
they're born like buds turning into
petals
and freedom is like a child
running wild and
talking in chatters
so many songs
and poems
and conversations flow
without fences
i like it here
even without you
i am hurt
but it is different now
i have befriended the pebbles
and the sands
the sun is terrible
but on a night like this
the moon comes once in a while
bringing me
another sense and meaning
some stars sing
they help

Darkness Of...
Darkness is not the darkness of night
it is the darkness of mind and soul.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is the darkness of discrimination between poor and rich.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is the darkness of dishonesty.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is the darkness of aggravate.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is darkness of corruption.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is the darkness of indiscipline.
darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is the darkness of animosity.
darkness is not the darkness of night,

darkness is not the darkness of night,
it is the darkness that we all brought up inside us,
so, light the lamp of light inside you...

Why?
Very harsh and sometimes unfair, a distant God who truly doesn’t care,
These words used, sometimes describe, the God, who for all men died.
Used most by men who know not Him, people still steeped deep in sin,
With darkened minds, they can’t see, the love God has for you and me.
Many today, see this world going awry, and in their heart grumble why?
Why does a God know to be love, allow such evil from Heaven Above?
Why does He allow evil to exist, while existing above in Heavenly bliss?
Why doesn’t He stop all evil now, and rid all of the darkness somehow?
Many people today have much to say, about all the darkness in our day,
However, they have no reverent fear, of The Eternal God, who is so near.
Many people do not know my Lord, and Truth He revealed goes ignored,
Blaming all the darkness on the One, who sent us Light through His Son.
As men continue to reject His Grace, this world becomes a darker place,
And all that darkness continues on, through the evil which Satan spawns.
Many are blinded by Satan’s deceit, as he is leading a world into defeat,
This, as Satan knows full and well, that he is guiding souls right into Hell.
And they continue to question God, while they’re still on this earthly sod,
While never looking at their own sin, or questioning their own heart within,
Asking them self, while in this life, do they them self, need Jesus Christ?
As God’s question will be to everyone, why didn’t you listen to my Son?

To my dear expensive
'To my dear expensive'
Princess dreams to the picturesque beauty
I try hard to be out to you across continents
But destiny is written
To be away from each other
I will not forget throughout my life until the day I die
I have lived for days with you expensive
I do not know why you left me simply at the end of the road
You left me alone in the darkness of the road
We were living the story of romantic love has not lived them one by
I am now sitting alone among the trees cry
I did not find one comforts me and raises my morale
You are only estimated to forget me forever my sorrow
I have loved you love blind
I love quiet
Description forever and ever
You're The one you live inside my white heart
I will pay you love after love
I will grow up in my loving for you day after day
I will never forget you in whole my life forever
For days and long years you will stay my lovely princess
I hope to see you soon honey
God bless you in wholek your life

Close Your Eyes
I am walking the streets at night,
bathing myself in the moonlight,
watching others go about their business,
so many people living in the darkness,
but this is not a dark and colourless land,
for you must try and understand,
that here your thoughts are divine,
as every moment is frozen in time.
Close your eyes, forget your name,
for in darkness we’re all the same.
Close your eyes, then lose yourself,
for you’re the same as anyone else.
Close your eyes, release your past,
for the future is the one and only task.
Close your eyes, follow your soul,
as it will make you complete and whole.
I am lying awake in my bed,
thinking about what people have said,
words spoken in times of madness,
and held in anger and bitterness,
looking out of my bedroom window,
in to the darkness and the shadow,
seeing the mysterious world outside,
where normal people do not hide.
Close your eyes, untangle your heart,
so your emotions can just fall apart.
Close your eyes, lay yourself bare,
find the beauty to make everyone stare.
Close your eyes, fight your fear,
for everyone is safe in here.
Close your eyes, dream your reality,
then you’ll know what you could be.

Real Love
I gotta step back, back to see reality
Remember girls that were my destiny
Those feelings that were always inside of me
Always I thought - bam - there was reality
My heart my insight once had a bright light
Forever I thought but I never know
That that kinda love, onesided and not given back
Would break my heart, yeah and would break my back
So never again I vowed to the earth and sea
To trust to rely on girls to set love free
Feel the thing in my heart the way its been before
But life was gonna teach me, down in n.y.c
So my memories full of fear and agony
I experienced the way when love is set free
Revealed by both though never said thru words
But this time love failed cause distance sealed it
Chorus:
Think about the real love!
So I was back, back in the place
Where I started before not willing to love
Show feelings no more, wrong time,
Wrong place they said to myself, what a disgrace
cause then it happened, emotions continuity
Took its toll prepared todays reality
Courage and luck on my side and inside of me
R-e-a-l-i-t-y, its been to me
Like a dream I had as a little child
With a thousand colours totally wild
Bleedin into one embracing themselves
Brighter and more fluorescent than anything else
And now Im back, back in my reality
Looking at my life, my love and feel the
Essence of thruth, ethereal eternity
I finally found it, God I love reality!

Real love is found just once in life

Next Broken Heart
(2/16/12)
You may not hear the sounds
But they are coming in leaps and bounds.
Hearts being broken in two
And no one knows just what to do.
In this world of uncertainties
No one knows just what they'll be.
Searching for love - yet wanting to play the field
When true love comes, they won't know how to feel.
Love is not a physical attraction
But an emotional reaction.
So many explanations for the feelings of love
And all are sent from the heavens above.
Now you may think that you know it all
And on the wayside these words will fall.
But will you be the next heart broken in two?
THAT MY FRIEND DEPENDS ON YOU!

Good Girls Go To Heven
When the wind is howling through your window pane
Its not the only pain of the night
Your burning up in your bed, you gotta fever of love
And theres not an antibody insight
Hey jenny, jenny why are you crying
Theres a beauty of a moon in the sky
But I guess when youve been leading such a sheltered life
You never lift your head and look so high
You dont have a lot
But its all that youve got
And you can turn it into more than it seems
Just give it a shot
Fantisize every movement
And imagine every inch of your dreams
And no one said it had to be real
But its gotta be something you can reach out and feel now
It aint right
It aint fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good girls go to heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Ooh now good girls go to heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Sombody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayers
Ill be praying
That the good girls go to heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
When the sweat is sizzling
On you skin in the dark
And your desperate now for somewhere to turn
Every muscles in rebellion
Every nerve is on edge
And every limb is being erotically burned
Hey johnny, johnny why are you shaking?
When a boy should do whatever he can
Youve been nothing but an angel
Every day of your life and now you wonder what its like to be bad
You dont have a lot
But its all that youve got
And you can turn it into more than it seems
Just give it a shot
Fantisize every movement
And imagine every inch of your dreams
And no one said it had to be real
But its gotta be something youve been wanting to feel now
It aint right
It aint fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good boys go to heaven, but the bad boys go everywhere
Good boys go to heaven, but the bad boys go everywhere
Sombody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayers
Ill be praying
That the good boys go to heaven, but the bad boys go everywhere
Every time I try and dream you
I cant beleive how hard its been to
Conjure up your face and trace your body in the air
All the seconds go on forever
But the thirds and the forth ones are even better
And every time I do it just a little bit longer
Every time I dream, its just a little bit stronger than
Real life
And no one said it had to be real
But its gotta be something you can reach out and feel now
It aint right
It aint fair
Castles fall in the sand
And we fade in the air
And the good girls go to heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Ooh now good girls go to heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
Sombody told me so
Somebody told me now I know
Every night in my prayers
Ill be praying
That the good girls go to heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere

The Vanishing Race
(graham russell, michael sherwood, larry antonio)
Sun, I cant slow you down
Run, build on sacred ground
All of the leaves have blown away
Ghosts on a distant highway
In a vanishing race
Sleep, if your eyes must close
Weep, over a poisoned rose
Soon all the tears will blow away
Dust on a distant highway
In the vanishing race
Fly, closer to the sun
Fight, till your world is one
Soon all the stars will burn away
Ghosts on a different highway
In the vanishing race
Oh, shall we sleep tonight
Oh, when theres no hope in sight
Take all your dreams and drive away
Smoke on a distant highway
From the vanishing race
All my people
Respect your mother earth
Thank you for this life and this breath
And all my peoples strength
