Mirage

(words & music by giant - baum - kaye)
Is your love darling just a mirage?
From the distance, you call to me like an oasis
Though your kisses, keep drawing me near
Is your love a mirage that will disappear?
Like a man in the desert, Im lost
Is this dream just a trick of my imagination
Though I thirst for your lips, night and day
Is your love a mirage that will fade away?
How I pray, heaven answered my prayer
When I reach out for you, youll be there
In the search for my love will be through
Like a dream a mirage, will come true
How I pray, heaven answered my prayer
When I reach out for you, youll be there
In the search for my love will be through
Like a dream a mirage, will come true
A mirage, a mirage, a mirage

Mirage

Mirage
I am just a mirage
Oh - I am just a mirage
When you look at me
Thru your crystal glass you will see
That I am now your past
But you give your love to me
In your life I wasnt meant to be.
Oh I am just a mirage
Oh I am just a mirage
Just a mirage fading away like water
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I am just a mirage
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I am just a mirage
I am just a mirage
But until that day has come
When you say Ill be your only one
I will live the way its meant for me
With ups and downs and mystery.

My Mirage

In my mind I see a mirage on the wall,
But unfortunately its not there at all.
So I guess Ill draw my mirage on the wall,
Then it can be here to see and enjoyed by all.
My mirage, Ill be drawing you soon.
Then all of the beautiful people that come to our home,
Theyll be seeing you too.
My mirage,
Ill be drawing you soon,
My mirage, Ill be seeing you soon.
In my mind I see a mirage on the wall,
But unfortunately its not there at all.
So I guess Ill draw my mirage on the wall,
Then it can be here to see and enjoyed by all.
My mirage, Ill be drawing you soon.
Then all of the beautiful people that come to our home,
Theyll be seeing you too.
My mirage,
Ill be drawing you soon,
My mirage, theyll be seeing you soon.

Shockadelica

Lookit here
(the lights go out)
The lights go out
The smell of doom
Is creepin into your lonely room
The beds on fire
Your fate is sealed
And youre so tired
And the reason is camille-mille
Shockadelica
The girl must be a witch
She got your mind, body, and soul hitched
Shockadelica
You need a second opinion
But she never wears a stitch
So you cant take her home
She got you tied with a golden rope
She wont let you play your guitar
And when youve cried enough
Maybe shell let you up
For a nasty ride in her shockadeli-car
Shell make you beg (please) girl
Shockadelica
Got you in a trance
cause when this woman say dance you dance
Shockadelica
You need a second opinion
But you just cant leave her alone
As though you got no mind of your own
Shockadelica shockadelica
Shockadelica shockadelica
Shockadelica
The lights go out
The smell of doom
Again is creepin into your lonely room
Is this a dream
Or is this real (or is this real)
Or is this just a mirage you feel
Shockadelica shockadelica
Shockadelica
She must be witch
She got your mind, body, and soul hitched
Shockadelica
You need a second opinion
She never wears a stitch
You cant take her home
Shockadelica
She got you in a trance
When this girl say dance
Baby, baby, baby, you dance (shockadelica)
You dance, you dance, you dance, you dance, you...
Shockadelica (she must be a witch) {yeah}
Shockadelica (she got my mind, body, and soul hitched)
Shockadelica (I need a second, I need a second opinion)
Shockadelica (I just cant leave here alone)
The lights go out
The smell of doom
Again is creeping into your lonely room
(is this a dream)
Is this a dream
Or is this real
(or is it just a mirage)
Or is this just a mirage you feel
(is this just a mirage) (or is it just a mirage)
(is this just a mirage) (or is it just a mirage) (shockadelica)
(is this just a mirage) (or is it just a mirage)
(or is this just a mirage) (or is it just a mirage)

Blind innocence, _ excitation in the Mirage

There, at top,
Lonely poplar sublime in a Mirage, _
Naked letters without a metaphor,
The eremite did not notice beauty of a cypress,
And in it there was a pleasure …
Blind innocence, _ excitation in the Mirage,
Squeezed out love juice of the moon …

Adinkra Symbols

I am the girl that you seein the mirror and,
I want to climb on a ladder to reach to the top;
But who will please me and show me love?
For my social life and my school life have stories,
And these have made me what i am today with my sweet love.
I have the 'Adinkra Symbols' all over me and,
You need to look into the mirror always!
For my love will reflect back to you like a mirage because,
I am ready to share my hot games with you.
I am the girl that you see always in your mirror and,
I want to love you for what you are;
Because the day and the night will be with you always,
And like a mirage across the muse of your sweet heart.

Echo is the mirage of Sound

..

echo it is - the mirage - of sound
i walk into a concert - happening
at the other side
body - it is the mirage - of the soul
i walk into it - to be told i have -
a choice to make - between heaven and hell

Dating For Lonely People

Like a mirage in a desert

Is dating for lonely people

It would solve the problem,

Can be seen in the mind's eye,

It seems to be near,

Until you reach out to touch it.

You move

And it moves.

Even though it gets clearer,

You are no nearer.

Something is wrong

With lonely people

Or their vision

Of the mirage

Of dating for lonely people.

An Allowance For Some Mistakes Of How We Perceive Things To Be

our thoughts have what in them an allowance for the possibilities
that what they perceive are just illusions of the mind
far away from the flesh and bone of the things-in-themselves

a mirage, or just the image of a mirage, come to think of it,
a man that you hate or love, could not be me, but the image of the man
in your dream in your mind like air dripping from your forehead to your lips
you taste and feel it but it does not taste and feel as you have seen it
there are possibilities of optical illusions, and what you see are evil
come to think of it, could just be as good as your disguises.

you are made to believe that what you see is what you get.
but there are those which your eyes do not see which your eyes failed to find.
what you feel is also what you get on such matters that only your heart can feel.

i have written this because you wish to see my love through your eyes.
you grieve because you have not seen that red flower in the blue sky.
it is not in the mind, it is right there in that garden when you close your eyes.

Love Cant Hide

Tears on my pillow keep falling
And Im crying over you, crying over you
How long will the time last before my heart
Is blessed to see the day Im back with you, the day Im back with you
See Im yearning for you baby, constantly Im reminscing
Always think bout the things we used to do
And Im singing baby
Chorus: x2
Bop ba da ba da
Bop ba da ba da
Bop ba da ba da
Love cant hide
Bop ba da ba da
Bop ba da ba da
Bop ba da ba da
The pain inside
Am I wrong for love thats been lost and found
Looking for someone to make the claim, oh tell me
Why am I an example of heart turned cold
Looking for someone to take the blame, wont nobody take it for me baby
Reflections of your silhouette at the corners of my bed
I try to close my eyes and go to sleep, still I see you in my dream
Chorus x2
Bop ba da ba da
Bop ba da ba da
Bop ba da ba da
Love cant hide
Bop ba da ba da
Bop ba da ba da
Bop ba da ba da
The pain inside

Bridge:
Are my dreams of love a mirage of paradise
As the weeks turn to months
And so many sleepless nights
For the day I pray my tears will wipe away
Youll hold me in your loving arms always
Chorus x2
Bop ba da ba da
Bop ba da ba da
Bop ba da ba da
Love cant hide
Bop ba da ba da
Bop ba da ba da
Bop ba da ba da
The pain inside

Are my dreams of love a mirage of paradise
As the weeks turn to months
And so many sleepless nights
For the day I pray my tears will wipe away
Youll hold me in your loving arms always

An Elegy to Heart

Heart within heart
Life within life
A hope?
A mirage?
A foolish whim?

Unfulfilled hopes
Testing idealism
Unnerving anxieties
Dark lonelinesses…

Ah!

When love, scarce
When the known, a caricature
When companionship, a test
When heart shatters in silence
When agony performs a ghost dance

Still…

To love as you’re
To love me as I’m

Isn’t that a vain hope?
Isn’t that a mirage

Ah, a foolish whim?

The Blood

Tell me who doesn't love
What can never come back
You can never forget how it used to feel
The illusion is deep
Its as deep as the night
I can tell by your tears you remember it all
I am paralysed by the blood of christ
Though it clouds my eyes
I can never stop
How it feels to be dry
Walking bare in the sun
Every mirage i see is a mirage of you
As i cool in the twilight
Taste the salt on my skin
I recall all the tears
All the broken words
I am paralysed by the blood of christ
Though it clouds my eyes
I can never stop
When the sunsets glow drifts away from you
You'll no longer know
If any of this was really true at all

Smaller & Smaller

Drought makes the workers dream
Muscles and fields of green
Shovel the last few crumbs
Of generosity
Open hearts, open mind, open mouth, open vein
Drain
Someday the rains will come
My blistered hands tell me
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
Bite
Bite
Bite
Cry
Ill keep coming back
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Squash me
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Under the charity
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Under the topsoil
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Under the fingernail
Smaller and smaller and smaller
Then small becomes all becomes all..........
Bite
Bite

Cry
Its not a mirage
Its not a mirage
Trickling downward, trickling downward
Its not a mirage
Drain
Drain

Cry
Smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller..........

0376 Self-search

Hey, Self - how do I know that you exist?
Or are you just a word - a useful term
for what we hope our real nature is,
those things about us which we're proud to affirm?

So, can we know you? How to start the search?
A dictionary hardly gives the clue;
Or are you always far beyond our reach?
A mirage always 'too good to be true'?

Or, are you so close known, that we can prove -
by dropping off all that we know we're not -
that what is left is what we are: true love:
that, which we always are; cannot be got.

O Self, you must be all that's true and real:
for without you, we'd never know unreal.

Am I Dreamin' (feat. Keith Sweat)

Am I dreaming, baby,
Are you for real?
Verse One:
(Ol' Skool):
Things are kind of hazy,
And my head's all cloudy inside.
Now I've heard talk of angels, baby,
But never thought I would have one to call mine.
(Tiny):
See you are just too good to be true,
And I hope, there's not some kind of mirage,
With you, oh baby.
Chorus:
Am I dreamin',
Am I just imagining you're here in my life?
Am I dreamin',
Pinch me to see if it's real,
Cause my mind can't decide.
Verse Two:
(Ol' Skool): Will this last for one night,
(Kandi): Or do I have you for a lifetime?
(Ol' Skool): Please say that it's forever,
And that it's not an illusion to my eye.
(LaTocha):
And I hope that you just don't up and disappear,
My love, I pray,
That it's not a hoax, and it's for real, oh.
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
(Ol' Skool): Baby I know,
Sometime, say that sometime,
I need you to show me girl.
Show me that you're not a mirage,
(LaTocha): Oh baby, I need you, I need you, I need you.
Oh, I need you to pinch me, baby.
(Ol' Skool): I need you to pinch me baby,
Am I dreamin baby?
Repeat Chorus
Break:
(Ol' Skool): My mind can't decide, no no,
(LaTocha): Oh, baby,
Touch me baby, feel me baby.
(Ol' Skool): I wanna know if you'll be right there,
(LaTocha): Oh oh oh...
(Ol' Skool): I wanna know if you'll be right there,
Tell me this is not an illusion.
(LaTocha): Touch me baby, I want you to feel me baby,
(Ol' Skool): Somebody let me know,
I wanna know if you'll be right there,
If it's real,
This is not a mirage, no

The Vanished Mirage. by Ray Subrata

Yes dear, with my feeling, and heart,
I wish to share your part.
Stir your brimming brook,
My hooker’s madness in your hook,
Thus happiness gives us Life’s delight,
It withdraws darkness even in night.

A flattery, an wise, taunted.
And I acquiesce, with pain,
For love needs no praise,
If so it leads to dreary mirage.

A liberated Vagabond, cried,
Oh! No advance more a step,
Desire of flesh and lurking rape,

I disclosed to my lady love,
And with a smiles she said,
If it were so, to them I had to serve,
And like you they were paid,
The intoxicated rape vanished mirage,
And they died in me slaving allotted age.

You know what

You know what, you can't guess how much I love you!
My mind has become a mosque to pray for you!

You’ve become my mind’s addiction,
You’ve become my eyes’ addiction!

My life was a desert without love,
I ran after the mirage a lot
To quench the thirst for my sweetest love!

Then you have come in my life
Like the clouds of monsoon rain
And painted my mind
With colors of love!
