Single Blessedness (Acrostic)

Pressures and hassles gone
restless hours are all done
on this retirement day
memories of work stay
indulgence of freedom
draws no boredom
as a single woman

Tomorrow remains unseen
over the years still dreamin'
right now my time has come
never shall I feel lonesome
onwards I live to the fullest

Dreamin

Four oclock Ive been walkin all night
Its the time I always think of you
If you could only see through my eyes
Then youd know just what Im going through
Here am I Im taking a chance
In running around with stars in my eyes
Here am I Im looking for you
Wondering why do I feel so blue
Im dreamin dreamin of me and you
Im dreamin dreamin will see me through
Never letting chances pass me by
Im gonna dream you right into my life
Yeah dream you right into my life
(dreamin dreamin will see me through)
Woman youd better believe im
(dreamin you into my life)
Five oclock still walking around
I call you up but you just bring me down
I guess youd say Im getting nowhere
But in my dreams you always come around
Here am I Im takin a chance
Im walking on air flyin so high
Here am I Im facing the truth
Theres no other way Ill ever make you mine
Im dreamin
Dreamin of me and you
Dreamin dreamin will see me through
Never letting chances pass me by
Im gonna dream you right into my life
(dreamin dreamin will see me through)
Woman youd better believe that Ill be
(dreamin you into my life)
Woman youve got to believe me woman
Oh woman youve got to believe me woman
Ill be (dreamin you into my life)
Youve got to believe me woman
Woman oh woman youve got to believe me Ill be forever
(dreamin you into my life) oh woman you got to believe me

Remains Unseen

The hate that tears at my brain
Remains unseen to you
The self loathing and the pain
I'm swinging at the end of my rope,
If you only knew
I am lost without a hope,
There's nothing I can do
Oh.
I don't want to live this day
It's getting harder every day,
To face what I've become
The fear of what I have become
Remains unseen to you
A heart that's just gone numb
Remains unseen to you
I just want to close my eyes
And pretend this isn't true
Throw my hands up to the skies
There's nothing I can do
Oh.
This feeling of helplessness
And despair remains unseen to you
It's the cross that I must bear,
But it remains unseen to you
I dwell in a twisted reality of hate,
Remains unseen to you
Ugly thoughts, you cannot relate,
So I'll remain unseen to you

Tomorrow may never come

Life's changing every moment
Life is now a shade
Life is now sunshine
Every moment on earth

Live life to the fullest
Whatever time you have is yours
For tomorrow might never come
Life's changing every moment

Life is now a shade
Life is now sunshine
Every moment on earth
Live life to the fullest

Whatever time you have is yours
For tomorrow might never come
Someone to love you with all his heart
Is difficult to come by

Should there be someone like that
He's the one for you, be sure
His hand you must take
For all you know

Tomorrow might never be
Every moment on earth
Live life to the fullest
Whatever time you have is yours

For tomorrow might never come
In the realm of your eyes
Should someone get close to you
Try a million times to control your crazy heart

But it shall continue to beat wildly
But think it over
This is the moment
This legend

Might not exist tomorrow
Life's changing every moment
Life is now a shade
Life is now sunshine

Every moment on earth
Live life to the fullest
Whatever time you have is yours
For tomorrow might never come

O The Pressures Of School

O the pressures of school
It is so heavy I feel like a mule
Slave everyday
I do not want to stay

O the pressures of school
The teachers know everything
And we know nothing
Choosing is not a choice
We are taught to be successful from people who are not
Just wish to be and wish us to be
But they know most of us will fail
Because we will bail
And live in jail
So we can tell our tale
Of how badly we wanted to prevail
But the pressures of school were too great

I don’t think they remember what its like to be in high school
Don’t they remember the pressures from their teachers to be better?
From there students to do drugs and smoke?
To choose to do shit that makes pressures go away but bring some different pressures?
At least we have a choice to do that shit
I think that’s where kids get caught
Choice, freedom, rebel…
Sweet sounds for a teenager worth the price
We hold the dice when it comes to these decisions
Finally we can control something
We are our own bosses
Yes we may loose
But lucky seven
Will take us to heaven

It is not easy finishing school
We are also just starting our complicated lives
Yes we need some guidance
But we don’t need to be on a choke hold
We don’t want to do what we’re told

We have pressures from society
From our family
From the academy
Hell we even have pressures from the TV!
Yet they still don’t see the large burden they put on our shoulders
They think, ‘what can some more pressure do?
Besides this pressure is good for you.’

All I want to do is write poetry
It is my drug
So I don’t have the pressures of taking drugs
It is my addiction
So I don’t need any smokes
It is in my family
So I don’t need pressures from my family
It is even my TV
So I don’t need a TV
So I can tell myself how I am supposed to look and how I am supposed to live my life
It is all I want from school
I know my English and I know how I feel
So I don’t need the pressures of school
All you need to be a poet
Is to turn your feelings into words
You don’t have to be successful
As long as it feeds you’re own pressures rather than the pressures of society

Yet O the pressures of school are so great
I cannot escape
Until their pressures are obliterate

Old Happy Face!

Profession has inspired me
rendering service to the clients
on the status of their health status
made sure that my analysis are correct
in which the doctors based their diagnosis
days in my whole life have been all work
as it comes to end this retirement day.

Today marks my honorable exit
on reaping what I sow for years
rise to claim the accolade I deserve
nothing more uplifting than retirement
onwards I shall wear an old happy face.

Dreamin On

She takes the heart of mine
She make it beat in time
In fact shes mine forever
And Ill never ever know the reason why
Funny how she writes letters to me
Shes only human but she keeps goin through me
We came to love in the neighborhood
And the love dont cease to grow
And if you need me darlin
Ill be dreamin on
Dreamin on for you baby
Dreamin on for you woman-child
Dreamin on for you baby
She makes the skies grow dark
She makes the darkness bright
She make the wind grow warm in
The wake of another cold and stormy night
And anywhere she needs me Ill be runnin to
cause she fits me like a glove
And tho Id really like to be with you
She gave me love when there was no love
And I would not let her go
So if you need me darlin
Ill be dreamin on
Dreamin on for you baby
Dreamin on for you woman-child
Dreamin on for you baby
(break)
Ill be dreamin on
Dreamin on for you baby
Dreamin on for you woman-child
Dreamin on for you baby
Ah....
For you baby
Ah...(fade)

I Cant Stop Loving You

I cant stop loving you
Since I made up my mind
To live in memories
Of a lonesome time
I cant stop wanting you
Its useless to say
So I just live my life
In dreams of yesterday
Those happy hours
Oh, those happy hours
That we once knew
Oh, that we once knew
So long ago
So long ago, baby
Still make me blue
Yeah, still make me blue
They say the time
They say that time
Heals a broken heart
Heal a broken heart
But time has stood still
But time has stood still
Since weve been apart
Oh, since weve been apart
I cant stop loving
Since I made up my mind
Living in, live, live, live, live, live, live in memories
Of a lone, lonesome time
I cant stop wanting you
Its useless to say
So I just live my life
In dreams of yesterday
I cant stop loving you
Since I made up my mind
Oh, to live in memory, baby
Of a lonesome time
I cant stop wanting you
Its useless to say
So I just live my life
In dreams of yesterday
Of yesterday.

Evrybodys thinkin bout somebody else
But nobody thinks about [g] me
When the [c] time rolls around for me to [g] lay down and die

Evrybodys longin for somebody else
But nobodys lonesome for me
Evrybodys dreamin about somebody else
But nobody dreams about me
All I need is a bride who wants a big-hearted groom
I wouldnt care if she come ridin in on a broom
Evrybodys lonesome for somebody else
No-bod-o-dy lonesome for me.
Evrybodys pinin for somebody else
But nobodys lonesome for me
Evrybodys crazy bout somebody else
But nobodys crazy bout me
Oh, I shined up my shoes and then I slicked down my hair
Put on my sunday suit, but I aint goin nowhere
Evrybodys lonesome for somebody else
But nobodys lonesome for me.
Evrybodys yearnin for somebody else
But nobodys lonesome for me
Evrybodys fallin for somebody else
But nobodys fallin for me
Now I aint had a kiss since I fell out of my crib
It looks to me like I been cheated out of my rib
Evrybodys lonesome for somebody else
No-bod-o-dy lonesome for me.

I'm Still Dreamin'

I know people who lose their lovers
Turn around and they find another
Fall in love and then they break up
But I don't know if I want to wake up
'Cause I'm still dreamin'
I'm still dreamin', baby
I'm still dreamin'
Whoa, about you
Other women walk right up to me
I hear them talking but it goes right through me
I know its love that's on the line
But they don't know what's on my mind
Cause I'm still dreamin'
I'm still dreamin', baby
I'm still dreamin'
Whoa, about you
It's like a voice that's always calling
It's like a feeling that I'm always falling
I close my eyes and all I see is you, you, you
Cause I'm still dreamin'
I'm still dreamin', baby
I'm still dreamin'
Whoa, about you
(Key Change)
I'm still dreamin'
I'm still dreamin', baby
I'm still dreamin'
I'm still dreamin', baby
Dreamin about you baby
I'm still dreamin'
Keep on dreamin about you baby
I'm still dreamin'
I'm still dreamin', baby

Dreamin

I sit and wonder
How my life would be
If you were here with me
What a beautiful fantasy
Early in the morning
I find myself with tears in my eyes
From a dream that youre featured in
And it hurts deep inside
To know that you wont let me in to your life
And I wonder why
Im going crazy
I keep thinking about your foolish smile
Here I go I just cant stop
Dreamin
Dreamin
All the time
Im dreamin of all the joy we could have baby
Dreamin
Dreamin
For your heart
Im dreamin of all the love that we could share
Its my decision
To leave you now
Just because it hurts too much
Knowing youll never give enough
But how I long to
Experience the magic of your touch again
Now youre always on my mind
I just cant stop
Dreamin
Dreamin
All the time
Im dreamin of all the time we could have baby
Dreamin
Dreamin
For your heart
Im dreamin of all the love that we could share
I think of the time we had
Youre making me want you so bad
Im watching you walk away
But I wish I could make you stay
The only thing that I can do
Is baby baby to dream of you
I wake up in the morning thinking bout you baby
All the time and the time that we could be together yeah

To Die

If I die tomorrow
Know that I lived
And that's all I could have ever asked for

If I die tomorrow
Know that I loved
And to be capable of love
Is all I ever really wanted

If I die tomorrow
Know that I tried
For all who live in silent desperate acceptance
Live a life of self-destruction

If I die tomorrow
Know that all was well
For all who live a single day
Know that tragedy can accompany you
The rest of days

If I die tomorrow
Know that I was inspired
For he who has never been inspired
Never looked at himself
As he should have

And if I die tomorrow
Know that my only will in life
Was to cause a single grain of sand to tumble
Within the infinite pile of identical grains
And cause a single reaction
In the desolate hour glass
Of our existence

Ordinary Man

Try to understand
Im not your ordinary man, still I cant deny
You go with me everywhere
When Im dreamin you still share my lonely nights
Try to see my side
Its not your ordinary pride that keeps drivin me on
Its that lonesome, restless feelin that you feel under the gun
And it leads me to the highways but it keeps my body warm
And as I wander to the cities and the towns
I get so lonesome knowin you could be around
And when the show is over, theres a holiday motel
Another empty bottle and another tale to tell
Try to comprehend
Im not your ordinary friend at the end of my life
I would pray that I could be
Returning to the shelter of your love
Try to see my side
Its not your ordinary pride that keeps drivin me on
Its that lonesome, restless feelin that you feel under the gun
And it leads me to the highways but it keeps my body warm
And as I wander to the cities and the towns
I get so lonesome knowin you could be around
And when the show is over, theres a holiday motel
Another empty bottle and another tale to tell
Try to understand
Im not your ordinary man, still I cant deny
You go with me everywhere
Like a shadow in the gloom
I remember all the good times
Theres a ghost in every room

Lonesome Cities

There? a few more lonesome cities that I? like to see
While the want of wanderlust is still inside of me
There? a few more handsome men that I? like to know
Just a few more handsome men is down the road I go
Maybe when I have seen it all
Seen all there is to see
I find out I still can not
run away from me
Just as long as trains keep running
Restless woman I?l be
And there? a few more lonesome cities that I? like to see
Hey now,
Maybe when I have seen it all
Seen all there is to see
I find out I still can not run away from me
Just as long as trains keep running
Restless woman I will be
And there? a few more lonesome cities that I? like to see
Just a few more lonesome cities that I? like to see

Restless

I dont belong to no one
I dont belong at all
Got my face in the corner
Got my back to the wall
And pretty baby Im restless, restless
Restless through and through
Im restless, restless
You look restless too
Im a hair trigger lover
And I cant face up to nothing
Im impatient with the wind
But Im waitin here for somethin
And pretty baby Im restless, restless
Restless through and through
Im restless, restless
You look restless too
Restless sleep, twisted dreams
Moving targets, silent screams
Restless city, restless street
Restless you , restless me
Im a face at the window
Im a black satin sheet
And I cant stay warm
I stay out in the street
And pretty baby Im restless, restless
Restless through and through
Im restless, restless
You look restless too

A Single Woman

Artist: Nina Simone
Album: Single Woman
Song Title: Single Woman
I live alone.
That hasn't always been easy to do.
But just a single woman;
Some times as night the walls talk back to me.
They seem to say
Wasn't yesterday, a better day.
Always alone at home or in a crowd;
A single woman out on a private cloud;
Caught in a world few people understand.
I am what I am.only one single woman.
There was a timeI can't remember when.
The house was full of love but then again
It might have been imaginations plan,
Just to help along,
One single Woman.

27 Years! ! ! ! !

27 years of my life-
I lived like a wife,
waiting for my husband kiss;
Which i always missed.

27 years of my life -
Waited all the nights,
To share my happiness and sadness;
And i felt it was madness.

27 years of my life-
I spent with unknown husband,
Who has time to work;
And I felt like a jerk.

27 years of my life-
I spent with boredom,
And being a loyal wife;
I lost my freedom.

After 27 years of my life-
I still feel something missing,
I still keep looking;
And still waiting.
And the next 27 years will pass by:
Without my husband near by.

New dawn.

The glory of old legends
Lies buried in the past
The roadside remains unseen
Where dark shadows stay cast.

As the icy winds of fate
Howl sharp throughout the land
Memories are blown away
Like golden grains of sand.

But the farmer carefully
Sows seeds in the new dawn
For the light of tomorrow
Is where new hope is born.

Universal Freedom Is......

Freedom from hunger and freedom from pain
freedom from loss and so freedom from gain.
Freedom to give and freedom to share
freedom from want and that of despair.

Freedom to think and freedom to know
freedom to achieve and freedom to grow.
Freedom from bondage and freedom of liberation
freedom from ignorance and any unknown situation.

Freedom to come and freedom to leave
freedom to stay and freedom to conceive.
Freedom from struggle and freedom of ease
freedom to enjoy and the capacity to please.

Freedom from failure and freedom of success
freedom from denial and freedom of access.
Freedom from illusion and freedom of reality
freedom to become what we are in actuality.

Freedom to live and freedom to die
freedom to laugh and freedom to cry.
Freedom to speak and freedom to listen
freedom to act based on a wise decision.

Freedom from hate and freedom of love
freedom of below and freedom of above.
Freedom of the past and freedom of the present
freedom of the future and what it can represent.

Freedom from war and freedom of peace
freedom to begin and freedom to cease.
Freedom from sickness and freedom of health
freedom from poverty and mishandled wealth.

Freedom from wrong and freedom being right
freedom of the day and freedom of the night.
Freedom to choose and freedom to reject
freedom to imagine what there is to expect.

Freedom from lust and freedom from greed
freedom from anger and freedom from breed.
Freedom from jealousy and freedom from pride
freedom from within and freedom from outside.
Freedom of always not having anything to hide.

Freedom from space and also freedom from time
freedom from attachment and freedom from crime
Freedom to work and freedom to play
freedom to believe and freedom to pray.
Freedom to experience a rebirth someday.

Freedom from the body and freedom from the mind
freedom from the ego and freedom from being blind.
Freedom of transcendence being of the spiritual kind.

Universal freedom is eternal and infinite bliss
we should all therefore be able to realise this.
