Poet without Proper Words
Sad salutations,
Funerals that precede death,
Dashed expectations,
Warm moonlight glow
That vanishes in wintry cold.
Some friends depart
When their smile and laughter
Are appreciated most,
Some friends never arrive
And one can only imagine
The unique pleasure
Their presence would impart.
A dark-haired girl
Breaks my heart
As the music in the city
Fails to start,
But of course,
It is all my fault:
I’m a poet without the proper words
To calm anticipated fears
And instill a magical trust
In the compassionate harmony
Of a kind and considerate universe.

I'll remember
I'll remember you
Your smile
Your laughter
And your brown eyes
Your smile was the most beautiful smile I've ever saw
It's hotter than fire
It's prettier than me
Your smile was a sun to me
You smile to welcome me
And to let me know that you loved me
Your smile was charming and calm
No matter how others' smiles are beautiful
As long as it's not yours, it's not special.
Your laughter was the most fantastic music I ever heard
The gentle melody with cheerful and soft harmony
I was glad I could listen to it everyday
Your laughter was a medicine to all the scars in my heart
When you laughed, I laughed
All the burdens, sadness, and angriness flowed away as I laughed
Your laughter was much more special than any other laughter.
I'll remember your brown eyes
Your brown eyes always looks into mine and says 3 wonderful words
I love you
I love to look at your eyes
I could see the reflection of me, only me
And it's so warm and sweet
Warmer and sweeter than drinking hot chocolate in winter
Your laughter always remain inside my heart forever.
I'll remember you
Your smile
Your laughter
And your brown eyes
No matter how pretty and beautiful other people's smile, laughter, and eyes are, if they're not yours than they're no special.
I want to thank you for everything
Thank you for always being there and my hero
And thank you for being with me and loving me
I'll remember you.
True Frıendship
Your friends are your needs answered;
They are your field which you sow
With Love and harvest with thanksgiving
Friends provide drink and sustenance
When you suffer with hunger and thirst
When friends speak their minds you fear not;
Saying “No”, nor withhold saying “Yes”
When friends are silent;
Your heart need not cease listening to their heart
Without words, in friendship, all thoughts, all desires,
All expectations are born and shared, with joy unbound
Let their be no purpose in friendship save
The deepening of your spiritual connection
Always give the best of who you are and what you have to friends,
As it is for them to fill your needs, not just your emptiness
Seek not friends for hours to kill, rather for hours to live;
For within friendship there is laughter, mirth and pleasure
When parting from friends, grieve not;
For that which you love most in them may
Be clearer in their absence
Remember friendship as with love;
Seeks nothing save disclosure of its own mystery
“True friendship”
Is found in the smallest acts of love and kindness

City Aint Big Enough
Ooh
Yeah
Ooh
Ahh
We met at work
And we played from the start
You were the dj
I was working in behind the bar
Our love was sudden
You were doing something right
You started seeing one out of sight
In the beginning (beginning)
When you were spinning (spinning)
It was my song you were playing
I was never saying
What I was feeling (feeling)
What words I dealing (dealing)
But I cant hold it back no more
cos I dont wanna be friends
Baby you better know
What you I never know
You bring the light in both ends
Type of girl when you got a lot
One is not enough
City aint big enough
Doctor, doctor
Give me something
So I can fight to the end, cos the
City aint big enough
For both of us
Both of us
Both of us
Didnt want to turn it into a gap fight
But when the trouble it double
You wont like
I wanna let it down and you came first
And if the bubble is about to burst
In the beginning (beginning)
When you were spinning (spinning)
It was my song you were playing
I was never saying
What I was feeling (feeling)
What words I dealing (dealing)
But I cant hold it back no more
cos I dont wanna be friends
Baby you better know
What you I never know
You bring the light in both ends
Type of girl when you got a lot
One is not enough
City aint big enough
Doctor, doctor
Give me something
So I can fight to the end, cos the
City aint big enough
For both of us
Both of us
Both of us
I dont want this to get ugly
But if you push it girl just trust me
If you think that this is ok
You dont know what Im about
And boy just wipe the smile off your face
You aint that good at all anyway
And if you think that were friends that way
You dont know what Im about
cos I dont wanna be friends
Baby you better know
What you I never know
You bring the light in both ends
Type of girl when you got a lot
One is not enough
City aint big enough
Doctor, doctor
Give me something
So I can fight to the end, cos the
City aint big enough
City aint big enough
cos I dont wanna be friends
Baby you better know
What you I never know
You bring the light in both ends
Type of girl when you got a lot
One is not enough
City aint big enough
Doctor, doctor
Give me something
So I can fight to the end, cos the
City aint big enough
For both of us
Both of us
Both of us
Dont wanna be more than friends
Gonna fight until the end
Dont wanna be more than friends
Typical, one is not enough
Dont wanna be more than friends
Gonna fight until the end

Parting
O tell me, friends, while yet we part,
And heart can yet be heard of heart,
O tell me then, for what is it
Our early plan of life we quit;
From all our old intentions range,
And why does all so wholly change?
O tell me, friends, while yet we part!
O tell me, friends, while yet we part,
The rays that from the centre start
Within the orb of one warm sun,
Unless I err, have once begun,
Why is it thus they still diverge?
And whither tends the course they urge?
O tell me, friends, while yet we part!
O tell me, friends, while yet ye hear,
May it not be, some coming year,
These ancient paths that here divide
Shall yet again run side by side,
And you from there, and I from here,
All on a sudden reappear?
O tell me, friends, while yet ye hear!
O tell me, friends, ye hardly hear,
And if indeed ye did, I fear
Ye would not say, ye would not speak,
Are you so strong, am I so weak,
And yet, how much so e’er I yearn,
Can I not follow, nor you turn?
O tell me, friends, ye hardly hear!
O tell me, friends, ere words are o’er,
There’s something in me sad and sore
Repines, and underneath my eyes
I feel a somewhat that would rise,
O tell me, O my friends, and you,
Do you feel nothing like it too?
O tell me, friends, ere words are o’er!
O tell me, friends that are no more,
Do you, too, think ere it is o’er
Old times shall yet come round as erst,
And we be friends, as we were first?
Or do you judge that all is vain,
Except that rule that none complain?
O tell me, friends that are no more!

One Short Story
He was a boy
Who felt like a man
She was a girl
From a far away land
Far more beautiful
Than the picture in his hand
She had eyes
That would draw him in
They took a plane ride
Together they would find
Her long lost smile
They went home again
Back to her friends
Back to repair her heart
He loved this girl
With all of his heart
He wanted her mind
Her secrets and her trust
She would never do him any harm
He'd give her the world
If it sat in his palm
One rainy day
It was dark in the sky
She turned and she said to him
With grey in her eyes
Go home again
Go back to your friends
Go back and repair your heart
Go home again
Go back to your friends
Go back and repair your heart
His heart turned to liquid
And it trickled from his eyes
All he could do now
At this point in his life
Was to go home again
Back to his friends
Back to repair his heart
Go home again
Go back to your friends
Go back and repair your heart

Im the girl:
Im the kind of girl that would order a happy meal
Im the kind of girl that would dance to music whenever I hear it
Im the kind of girl that would make you spit out your drink when I say a joke
Im the kind of girl that would laugh at someone sneeze
Im the kind of girl that cheers the loudest
Im the girl that that makes you feel at eaze
Im the girl that would hold you when you cry
Im the girl that would sit next to you until the day you die
Im the girl that has a fake smile just to make you smile
Im the girl that would do anything to make you happy
Im the girl that would take a bullet for your life
Im the girl no on knows
Im the girl with the fake smile and acts like everything is Ok
Even though it isnt...
Im the girl that always has a smile on face
With a laughter in my breathe
Im the girl that acts the best.....

Lets Be Friends
(words & music by arnold - morrow - martin)
Dont be afraid, you and I were made the same little one
And I know what its like when you feel left out of the game little one
But if you take this helping hand that I lift
Then we can smile together, lets be friends
The world that you see may seem to be a mystery to you
The night may be dark but hope very hard and dreams can come true
You live in silence but for once lets pretend
Were talking here together, lets be friends
Youre not alone, Ive always known that wed get along
And someone I know says life is good and he cant be wrong
Theres fun and laughter just waiting round the bend
Lets find them now together, lets be friends
Lets find them now together, lets be friends

Old Friends
Old friends, old friends,
Sat on their parkbench like bookends
A newspaper blown through the grass
Falls on the round toes
of the high shoes of the old friends
Old friends, winter companions, the old men
Lost in their overcoats, waiting for the sunset
The sounds of the city sifting through trees
Settle like dust on the shoulders of the old friends.
Can you imagine us years from today,
Sharing a parkbench quietly
How terribly strange to be seventy
Old friends, memory brushes the same years,
Silently sharing the same fears

Jealous Skies
[intro]
Um, oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, baby girl, baby girl
Oh, baby girl, baby girl
Oh yeah, yeah, alright
(yo, who you talkin to? )
So who you on the phone with?
Are you talkin to your girlfriends?
You know they kinda shady
Dont believe what they say lady
(come take a walk with me)
Long walks in the park
Kisses after dark
Promises from the heart
Beepin 911
When you call, Ill run
Love takes me to your arms
Now you say that Ive changed
But its you whos acting strange
When I gave my heart
I swore it was forever
So if this is the rain
Love will get us through the pain
Ill stand by your side
Through the stormy weather
Baby trust your heart
And put it in my hands
Jealous friends will only tell you lies
Put your faith into someone who really cares
Cuz your friends, they live in jealous skies
Baby tell me why, oh why
The truth needs alibis
Seems a good man cant win
And even when your friends
Pushed up on your ten
I would not freak us in
Now you say that Ive changed
But its you whos acting strange
When I gave my heart
I swore it was forever
So if this is the rain
Love will get us through the pain
Ill stand by your side
Through the stormy weather
Baby trust your heart
And put it in my hands
Jealous friends will only tell you lies
Put your faith into someone who really cares
Cuz your friends, they live in jealous skies
If you got a question thats burning in your heart
Question your love and the vows you made from the start
Check your inner feelings
Cuz they will never lie to you
Cuz Ill be around girl, forever down
And Ill always be true to you
Baby trust your heart
And put it in my hands
Jealous friends will only tell you lies
Put your faith into someone who really cares
Cuz your friends, they live in jealous skies
Baby trust your heart
And put it in my hands
Jealous friends will only tell you lies
Put your faith into someone who really cares
Cuz your friends, they live in jealous skies
Baby trust your heart
And put it in my hands
Jealous friends will only tell you lies
Put your faith into someone who really cares
Cuz your friends, they live in jealous skies

Smile concrete write-up
Smiling. Smile when you hit that homerun you have been waiting for all season. Smile when school gets out an hour early. Even smile when you get a present you don’t particularly like. It’s the thought that counts. A smile from a special friend can turn your frown upside down any day. You may be having the worst day you have had all year long, and a simple smile from a certain person can cheer you up like a snap. Smiling is heartwarming when you see it on some other privileged life. Smiling is the most fantastic action possible for anyone to do. When your cheek muscles turn up, it starts to hurt slightly because you smile ear to ear. Smile when you get a speedy personal record on your mile run or swim lap. Smile just to give your appreciated friends that have been there for and with you for all those years a smile they deserve. Smile when you get the only 100% on the hardest test of the year. Some think that smiling is just a reflex to laughter or being happy. Maybe it is, but I feel it is more. Smile when you get the amazing opportunity to slow dance with the boy or girl, who is better than your dreams. Smile to basically thank that you are alive. Smile when you blast your iTunes on screaming speakers at one of your teenage parties. Smile when you feel wild and passionate, swinging your hair side you side like a rock star, letting the flowing music notes fly through the air into your ears. Smile and laughter go together like a teeny Chihuahua and a mini purse on a famous celebrity’s shoulder. Rarely have one without the other. Laughter normally is if something is hysterical or if something is intensely amazing. Smiling is more generic, as in appreciated anything or anyone. Sometimes, too much smiling turns into the beautiful sound of laughter. Smile when everyone gets along. Smile when everything fits into place, with no stress whatsoever. Smile when you win first in something you love and have been working brutally on. Smile when you can be your self in front of anyone and not feel embarrassed or awkward. Smile just to smile.

To a fellow poet
What can I give you –
for only giving can I think of,
in this dark season of the year
which needs no festive name, to name the need…
this dark season, when hearts yearn
for all that’s bright, and warm, and love..
what can I give you, at this time?
I give you – music… music, heard
outside the heart’s dark winter door
to say, that all’s not lost; all’s never lost;
there’s music still and always, through the door…
you’ll hear, and know yourself to be that all…
I give you – laughter… laughter, on the face
of strangers, as you open that dark door;
strangers who laughing turn to you
and share their laughter and a proffered hand;
a room of laughter shared with you, illusions laughed away…
As poet gives to poet, these I give you;
they are – but poetry;
as poetry, may live.

[occasioned by discussion of ‘the three persons’ in poetry:
the confessional poetry of ‘I’;
the poetry that speaks and gives to ‘you’;
and the poetry of he, she, it, they – of universal truth..]

Always In My Heart
Words and music by bob seger
I think of you and I together
I picture you and I as one
When we sit there in
The firelight baby
When we wake to the morning sun
And though you may leave me
Were never apart
Youre always in my heart
When youre standing at the window
With the moonlight in your hair
And you turn and smile
My favorite smile
I just have to stop and stare
And babe when you hold me
I go off the chart
Youre always in my heart
Stay with me stay
Stay with me babe forever
Be by my side
Lets spend our lives together
I picture you and I together
I think of you and I for years
And if youre ever lost or worries baby
Ill be there to calm your fears
I think that Ive loved you
Right from the start
Always in my heart
Always in my heart

The Love
to kiss your lips-to touch your hair
to always feel your presence near
to see the smile upon your face
to hold you in a warm embrace
to sense the presence of your love
to feel you within me-giving me a start
and putting a glow in my heart.
to feel your breath upon my face
never leaving a sign or trace
of the feelings bottled up inside
and let it go before its time
this is what love should be
touching each other in perfect harmony.

Under The Moonlight
Under this moonlight I know I have no chance with you,
You look at me with such sadness,
Those eyes put me under a spell,
A spell I can not break,
Such sorrow,
Under the moonlight,
You glow with such beauty,
Your smile,
Your laughter,
Your touch,
How I miss those,
My eyes feel with tears,
Such sadness,
You can not bare to ignore,
Under this moonlight,
You say I look beautiful,
You look at me as if we were to kiss under this moonlight,
I can feel your hands all around me,
You speak to me with soften words,
You wisper in my ears,
Under the moonlight,
You shine like the sun,
You made me happy till the day you left me with a broken promise,
A broken heart,
Under this moonlight,
I cried for you,
A soften words you can not hear,
Something that I rather leave behind,
Something you and I don't belong,
Under the moonlight,
We say our goodbyes.

Go Ahead....Laugh
Go Ahead....Laugh
They say..laughter is the best medicine
I say, laughter is a natural expression of joy
The musical sound of a happy heart inside
The serenity and pleasures it gives.
I thank God for the many friends i met
Friends who give me joy and pleasure
Friends who are gifted with laughter and giggles
And share with me their chuckles
A cheerful heart, will drive your sadness away
A laughter a day, will stretch that ugly muscles a day
So go ahead and have that hearty laugh
Just don't let your neighbors hear and see you
And think you are crazy...nya ha ha..but they are, anyway..LOL

Friends
Words and music by Andy Summers
I likes to eat my friends and make no bones about it
I likes to eat my friends, I couldn't do without it
Ain't a man or poet, friend, I know just how you'll taste
Your limbs go sliding down my throat and never go to waste
Your death, of course, will sadden me, until I grok your essence
I know your life was not in vain when digestion is commencing
Consider this a celebration and the deepest pact of friends
And I hope that you will dine on me when I come to an end
(ah....)
Even friends may come to you with a new found revelation
But think of it as life renewed and not their termination
"To know you is to eat you" should be the code of lovers
Death brings the highest act of love preserved for one another
(ah....)
People say that what you are is only what you eat
And my friends become a part of me, oh well it's then that life's complete
To know you is to eat you, the act of love supreme
Each one of us inside himself can appetise the dream
(ah....)

Who Do You Rely On?
As your world goes on day by day, who or what is your mainstay?
The One, who is The Only Way, will also sustain you from day to day.
Christ can not only be your end, He can guide you daily, my friend.
Friends can change their mind, but Christ is the same all the time.
When your world seems to fall apart, who or what calms your heart?
God will calm your heart in life, through the power of Jesus Christ.
Not only does He calm your fears, He can wipe away all your tears.
Christ can put your mind at ease, and fill your heart with eternal peace.
When someone close to you is unjust, whom can you place your trust?
When your friends leave for fear, He’s a friend who is always near.
Disappointed by those close to you, there’s a friend who’s always true.
When your friends forsake you, Christ will stay to see you through.
When your back is against the wall, on who my friend can you call?
Friend you can call upon The Lord, at any path and/or at any door.
When you need a course to chart, you my friend can trust God’s heart.
Just call upon His Awesome Name and you will never be the same.
When the task at hand is do or die, on who my friend do you rely?
You can rely on God, you’ll see, from today on through all Eternity.
You can trust The Lord for sure; He’s The Rock of Ages forevermore.
You can rely on Christ for much more, and my friend, He's at the door.

Awkward And Uncomfortable
Hello, my friends again.
Let me reintroduce the proper way.
First my name with a little more attitude and confidence.
Then let me crack a joke to break the ice.
The simplest one will suffice.
My shyness is a wire that need to be spliced.
When under such exposure can I keep my composure?
I just do not know.
But hello, my friends again.
Let me reintroduce the proper way.
First my name with a little more attitude and confidence.
Then let me fall apart right in front of everyone.
Let me share in my horror stories of what some would call life.
Some would ask the question but isn't it fun?
I would say yes but at times I just want to run.
Hide in a dark corner holding a sharp knife.
It's pointed and ready.
I'm so scared.
Feelings in rawness to bare.
But hello, my friends again.
Let me reintroduce the proper way.
First my name with a little more attitude and confidence.
They say practice makes perfect.
But of that paraphrase I feel so deserted.
No matter how many times I try one is just as awkward as the next.
It gets me all anxious and upset.
What if i do it wrong?
Worst yet if I do it exactly right and this one girl gets turned on?
What if she one of those that expects something a lonely soul like me can never give?
As things perpetuate at a steady pace it gets harder and harder to say no.
But hello, my friends again.
Let me reintroduce the proper way.
First my name with a little more attitude and confidence.
But hello, my friends again.
Let me reintroduce the proper way.
First my name with a little more attitude and confidence.
