Memories!
Wherever I throw the boomerang,
It comes back to me as the memory,
In a circle of happy and sad treachery,
The glorious life of joyful moments,
Even at the hands of full and empty,
The torturous episode of gloomy thunder,
That echoed in the barren mind field,
Blooming of each little flower and pollination,
Victorious visuals and displays at the podium,
Sprouting of seedling on the shore of peaceful ocean,
Unforgettable storage of memories,
Come back to me to remind what to do,
What not to do, as you are the ancient teacher,
With the stern stick in hand to beat my heart and head,
Stay with me, how cruel your presence can be,
Stay with me, how sorrowful your stay can be,
When you leave I will not be the person,
Whom I want to be. Let me witness the scars,
Trials, tribulations and the success,
That have molded me..

So You Know
Just so you know, just so you know
Just so you know, just so you know
I got to find a way to grieve without my head sticking into my heart
I don't want to let her leave without my heads thinking this is the start
I was dreaming before that she believes that I'm the one who's on her side
Cannot let this go until I get my way
Stay
Just so you know
Just so you know
I never believed you
Just so you know
Just so you know
I want you to stay
Looking closely at a picture of myself from years ago
Looking closely at a stranger who could never let it show
Now I still feel empty as I lay here and absorb myself
Cannot let this go until I get my way
Stay
Just so you know
Just so you know

Stay Away
You gave me too many chances, now its drivin us apart
I keep on runnin with the boys, girl, but then you knew that from the start
It must keep building up inside you, cause you never let it show
I know Im hanging on the edge now, but I wont let go
I never meant to hurt you, but something was on my mind
Just give me one more chance, we can make it this time
Stay away, stay away from my heart - bet Im trying my best
Stay away, stay away from my heart
If you gave me three wishes, Id throw two of them away
Ive seen that look in your eye girl, Id use the last one this way
Weve been from rags to riches, but your love cant be bought
Im just a junkyard dog, girl, whos afraid hes been caught
Youre standing in the shadows, watching everything that I do
And I know the way things must look, it couldnt be further from the truth
Stay away, stay away from my heart - Im doing all that I can
Stay away, stay away from my heart
Remember how it used to be girl, makin love like its the last time
We held each other close, not knowing what wed found
You felt the pounding of my thunder, as your rain was pouring down
(instrumental break)
I never meant to hurt you, but something was on my mind
Just give me one more chance, we can make it this time
Stay away, stay away from my heart - yeah, but I wanna stay here with you
Stay away, stay away from my heart - yeah, Im doing all I can do
Stay away, stay away from my heart - but I wanna stay away from you
Stay away, stay away from my heart...

Half A Mind
Sometimes I wish we had a short term memory just enough to recognize each others face
It would be the same old stories but youre hanging onto every single word I have to say
And to the world Im not that clever but you would stay with me forever
Id keep your friends from reminding, reminding you to
Save yourself, leave me behind you would if you had half a mind
Id tell you every days your birthday and every gift I bring could be the same
Or how I stood beside you at a shotgun wedding and the child we once would love but never came
Hearing stories that were never you would stay with me forever
But Id forget to make money and youd forget to
Save yourself, leave me behind you would if you had half a mind (how vulnerable you are)
Write a note to remind you you would if you had half a mind (how effortless to stay together)
For these ties you may have severed now youll stay with me forever
And so you write on your forehead, or better yet you engrave
So when you look in the mirror, well you wont forget to
Save yourself, leave me behind you would if you had half a mind (how vulnerable you are)
Write a note to remind you you would if you had half a mind (how effortless to stay together)
If we had no memory whatsoever we would stay right here forever

Ocean of memory
I dived inside the ocean of memory
And went deeper and deeper
Everything around me went still
My life began to rewind
Flashing images from my past
The sorrows and the pains
The joy and the gains
I wanted some moments to stay for ever
And some to disappear fast
My whole life came before my eyes
Then everything became blank
I was still, everything around me became dynamic
I slowly returned back to the present
The ocean of memory is so vast
As life goes on, it grows bigger
I do make many voyages
Some so enthralling
Some full of pain
But my heart doesn’t agree
It always wants to swim in this ocean

Verse 1:
Don't you make me cry baby don't you ever leave me
Losin' you tonight takes me from heaven to hell
Dying is the final farewell
Even if you tried your heart never could deceive me
It will hurt my soul if you keep tellin' me lies
Love is more than tears in my eyes
Touch my hand let us do it all again
Hold me tight when I feel abused
Baby stay with me let the fire burn tonight
Touch my skin lovin' you is not a sin
Baby I've got more than dreams to lose
Don't you go away baby don't you blow out the light

Oh baby please stay

Baby don't you love me at all
Touch my hand let me feel it all again
Let me know you are mine to choose

Touch my skin lovin' you is not a sin

The Boomerang that Didn’t Want to Come Back (Fun Poem 28)
I watched a little lad,
playing with his boomerang,
and the boomerang
didn’t want to come back.
He would wave it about,
then give it a throw it,
but the boomerang just plopped
onto the grass.
He ran and gave it
one almighty throw.
The boomerang went a couple of feet
and then it came down again.
It led the little lad a merry chase
all across the green,
this boomerang
that would not come back.

Give More Than Yourself
Wasted hand can't hold
every grip
Of Spillage water, behold an open
Heart who capture every breath
than a Empty spirit that
whisper strength than losses
The Gordon knot
What more can an able
humane force Offer to someone
whom life have survive; the
Wind then blew the blooming
flower to hide
In the meadow of uncertainty
Thou the crops ripe
for harvest, yet the hands
Is empty to hold
the soaring waste of grain, come
Take the journey of lasting trip
and touch the Point
of withstand oblation of
your stay
Leave nothing than drops
of sweat of existence
For the future wait for

Even if we don’t stay friends
Stay Beautiful
Even if we fall apart
Stay Beautiful
Because you’re going to be someone in life
Stay Beautiful
For me or if not for me
Stay Beautiful
For yourself or for the people you love
Just Stay Beautiful
Because someday you’re going to find the one
You really truly love and she’ll be telling you
To Stay Beautiful too

The Black Bee - Original by Rabindranath Tagore
The black bee goes back again and again
And he comes back to love time and again
Then the flower blooms to end up her pain!
The bud hesitates to become full grown
Due to the shameful fear of the unknown!
Forget the cruel facts and the ill-feelings!
Give me your soul to enjoy the good things!
Stay with me forever O my heart sings!
Give up all hopes except the hope of soul!
Come back come back since my heart is your goal!
Come back in the fragrance of the garden!
My mind has already become a burden!
Lonely is this night! Is it for nothing?
It is shedding tears dewdrops are falling!
O the excited flower is crying!

Scars
Reality sucks, too much pain
I cant explain why I wanna bash brains
Still I can see it on the other side
Got a new baby, wanna stay alive
Give what I give, give what I got
Make it worth while, cause I got another shot
Broken families that always got pain
I break the chain, refuse to be the same
Mother-did as good as you could
After all the abuse I still understood
Three times divorced, and three times a kid
Gave us more love than our father ever did
Now weve all grown and moved along
Tried to forget, but my brother did me wrong
But its real hard to put it all behind me
Its like a tattoo frozen in a memory
I cant seem to erase the stain
In my brain, things will never be the same
I remember all the lies, f__ked up, now I realize
Never had a chance as a kid, I was a man
Fight after fight wasnt really what I planned
Father!
Whoever you are
Beat my mother down, all I see is scars
And memories - what about me?
Throw me through a window for watching tv
Where did I get this anger?
Where did I get this hate?
And where did I get my temper?
Now Im gonna show my faith
(huh) never will I be like you, be like you
F__ked up, that sh_t - Im staying true
My family, true to my family
Im true to my family
True to my family
Stay true
True to my family
Stay true, stay true
True to my family
Stay true
True to my family
Stay true, stay true
True to my family
True
True to my family
Stay true, stay true
True to my family
Stay true
True to my family
Stay true, stay true
Never will I be like you, never will I be like you (repeat to end)

Fire In The Thunder
just talked to you on the phone
and i couldn't help but to feel
the old flames stirring in my heart
for what i once felt for you
a firestorm has broken loose
and no one is around to control it
i could hear the thunder echo
like it did before
back when there used to be
fire in the thunder
a fire so hot and passionate
that could easily loose control
and rage war within my heart
for the place where you belong
then the thunder steps in
to make its presence known
and i quake with fear and passion
everytime you come close
for you brought the memories back
and the pain along with
isn't it better
to just stay happy with your wife
oh how i can feel
that fire coursing through my veins
i shouldn't want you so
yet this fire is saying yes
please come quickly
to put out this
fire in the thunder

But you got to make me change my mind
Baby I got your number and I know that you got mine
But you know that I called you, I called too many times
You can call me baby, you can call me anytime
But you got to call me
Give me one reason to stay here
And I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here

But you got to make me change my mind
I don't want no one to squeeze me, they might take away my life
I don't want no one to squeeze me, they might take away my life
I just want someone to hold me and rock me through the night
This youthful heart can love you and give you what you need
This youthful heart can love you and give you what you need
But I'm too old to go chasing you around
Wasting my precious energy
Give me one reason to stay here
And I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here
And I'll turn right back around
Because I don't want leave you lonely
But you got to make me change my mind

Baby just give me one reason, Give me just one reason why I should stay

Forging with ink of Hope and Faith
the last things fish feel thirst; lay down the dry
grown in the middle of breathless gills, showing the
endless mercy of dying, whistle in the air as it
suffocate
the breezing fresh gallop the nostril of nudeness
of a living soul, waiting the smoothness of flow of a
waiting catching soul to survive, the lasting
remembrance of a wondering immortal being exist
the shore catches the wave, as the pebble, wrestling
the turmoil of water in the heavenly pure of struggle,
nay the living floating weeds capture the mingling
drift in the tiny bubble in the deep blue sea
last the passing scene of the memory of the past, all
comes in a freezing sky to stay as it says a golden bye
of what is a blooming flower in the stream of river
gone into the sea of wonderful sky
wait as it flew the dust has mock of faith in the
rainbow of hope that the day leaves as you return and
forward of what ever ink in the memory of your life,
for what ever plan lives in the wish of days in the sun
walk and gone, the vision is to stay always in the
journey with fun, just believe and never fade the faith
and hope that all wait for you to make you, as always
be apart with the great plan
know the air that breathe and learn that someday you
will be back in the touching hand with Faith that
only you is the One to make your birth goal be true
go and leave no trace, the footprints will find you there
to stay with God; in the sea shore of Hope all has to
leave and return..... with Faith

Our last Swim (R.I.P. Anne Mary Simon)
Our last Swim
By Renee’
For my beloved Anne Mary Simon
An Image of you in a cloud rolls by
The sky opens up, somewhere in my mind
A vision of you in a pale blue dress
Tears falling down, you took my breath
Memories of you...
Rain will always hide these tears in my eyes
When the thunder laughs my soul will die
Will I hear your voice?
Will I touch your skin?
Will the ocean waves let me in?
The time is near, the time is nigh
To answer the call, to answer the cry
My head still spins, my body aches
The wind stings my eyes, my face
I look around, no one’s there
Will anybody notice, will anyone care...
Rain will always hide these tears in my eyes
When the thunder laughs my soul will die
Will I hear your voice?
Will I touch your skin?
Will the ocean waves let me in?
I sit on this beach, your beach
I see the waves roll in endlessly
I hold you tight against my bosom
Tears fill my eyes as I see you running into the ocean
You are laughing and so happy
Memories of you...
Rain will always hide these tears in my eyes
When the thunder laughs my soul will die
Will I hear your voice?
Will I touch your skin?
Will the ocean waves let me in?
It’s time to take our final swim
My eyes fill with tears
I can’t move, but I must
You are waiting for me
My legs ache, my body is frozen
You are calling me, “come swim Renee’ “
Memories of you…
Rain will always hide these tears in my eyes
When the thunder laughs my soul will die
Will I hear your voice?
Will I touch your skin?
Will the ocean waves let me in?
I feel the warm ocean lapping at my feet
I slowly walk deeper, and deeper
Still holding you so tight
“Please don’t leave me! ”
I desperately cry
Stay with me a while longer
Don’t leave me yet
I am holding you so tight
Rain will always hide these tears in my eyes
When the thunder laughs my soul will die
Will I hear your voice?
Will I touch your skin?
Will the ocean waves let me in?
I feel you touch my face
I feel your loving embrace
I see your warm smile
“Please Anne, stay a while”
I see the last glitter of your eyes
Rain will always hide these tears in my eyes
When the thunder laughs my soul will die
Will I hear your voice?
Will I touch your skin?
Will the ocean waves let me in?
Opening the urn, I see you leap and dive
I see you swimming around me
Why are you so pale and grey?
Then the reality strikes deep into my heart
This is our last swim together
Rain will always hide these tears in my eyes
When the thunder laughs my soul will die
Will I hear your voice?
Will I touch your skin?
Will the ocean waves let me in?
Why are you smiling?
Why are so happy?
Why do you want to leave me so quickly?
Why? Why? Why?
Rain will always hide these tears in my eyes
When the thunder laughs my soul will die
Will I hear your voice?
Will I touch your skin?
Will the ocean waves let me in?
Walking from the water
I turn to look for you
I catch a glimpse of you
You look so happy my love
Then my heart skips a beat
I see you wave then turn away
Swimming and having fun
Memories of you…
Rain will always hide these tears in my eyes
When the thunder laughs my soul will die
Will I hear your voice?
Will I touch your skin?
Will the ocean waves let me in?
Sitting on the beach
Watching the ocean
Knowing that you’ll always be happy now
I will visit you soon my beloved Anne
Soon we’ll swim together again
Rest in Peace my sweet love
Rest in Peace

Torturous Head Games
I written about you before.
Spoke of the good times.
Spoke of the hard.
Like a distant star you seem far.
Gone is everything but mere whisper of your name.
But still every memory is cherished.
Locked away in a box.
Never to be lost or forgotten.
You made me who I am today.
You brought me back to life when I should have died cold and alone.
Let the crime fit the punishment.
But you told me no.
You can never give up or give in.
No matter the ghosts that follow your ever footstep.
Beat them back if you must.
Under your breath go ahead mutter and cuss.
I know its hard to move on.
But you must.
These attachments are just to clingy for me don't you see.
Smother someone and they will not be able breathe.
And they will do everything they can to break free.
The more you want it.
The more you can't have it.
The pleasure of torturous head games.
Mixed feelings that would drive most insane.
But not me oh no, I distance myself and just numb the pain.
I learned the serious ones do not play.
They make their move.
They tell you how they plan stay.
The long haul till death does all part.
Their just three little words.
They forever echo in mind.
What I should have said so long ago.
But now its too late.
A broken heart.
Give me another injection before the rejection starts.
Sitting by the hearth of a warm fire.
Staring off empty space.
Knowing its nobody fault but my own.
Self loathing is something I never condone.
But here I am contradicting my self.
Like fish out of water.
I'm flopping back fourth.
Still I know I must stay the course.
I know the answer will come.
But do I have patients to endure?
Or will I baited with another lure.
I do my damnedest to not allow it rest assure.

Gently care my Lips.....
my heart will be your paradise, my silent will be
your eyes and my touch will be your day to begin
the unending chariot of fire in your destiny
with in deep compassion the wisdom cab
wave the criticism of truth, as every stair the step,
made its way; pretending that my hands guide
your loneliness while my lip touches to reach the
rainbow of your pure insanity
vomit all that lead you know more of the head that
reason, on my mind your empty, perhaps it
makes cool my day, crazy like me, nothing comes
that makes things happy only that good shinning
springs of the sunny morn that hold until this day
wipe out all the mess, stare and steer, gently
please my face that collapse in your heart that pure
subside, lament all the memories for time comes no
regret; joyous await thy heart that long, stay and be
with me my dignity
let thy heaven move and stay away in my trouble
heart, but please release my bosom heart in your
flourishing moment to stay forever as you stay
with me......
