Now That Your Gone

Woke up this mornin' I could sense a change,
you left the bathroom light on.
Even before I found your note,
I knew you were gone.
Now all I have are these four walls,
to keep me company.
the night rolls in on a velvet fog,
to join me in my misery.

And i'll try as hard as I can....
To keep from cryin' myself to sleep
Wonderin' what to do
Now that i'm all alone, i've gotta face the truth
Without you, now that your gone.

I walk the streets for hours on end,
but only in the light of day.
Lost in the crowds that shuffle on by,
for a little while I feel ok.
But soon the night will roll in again,
to swallow up the day.
And join me in my misery,
and this heartache that won't go away.

And i'll try as hard as I can...
To keep from cryin' myself to sleep
Wonderin' what to do
Now that i'm all alone, i've gotta face the truth
Without you, now that your gone

Now that your gone
These nights seem a little bit longer
Now that your gone
I try so hard not to cry

Woke up this mornin' I could sense a change,
you left the bathroom light on.

POINT OF ORIGIN

POINT OF ORIGIN

You were an immaculate presentation.
You had a way. When you held
my hand and strode
your proud visage down
the unimportant avenue,
you rivered me in. I felt
reborn. We were high-kicking
to the blueplains sky
and more reaching. I still see
your wind-dark hair trailing you,
and the way you walked, so intentioned
delivering yourself to every step.

I still see the fragile
curve of your moonwashed cheek
accents, the depthless eyes holding
me in place. I still feel you
moving in me, burning trails
across stark vistas, imprinting us
in endless artistry.
I thought
you were the point of origin.

But around the edges, I knew
there was something
about you, Love,
red-rabid unreal.
You were always just beyond.

Time's creaked through
the laughless grandfather clock
in my room; I believe
it's been a year
since last I saw you
walk away from me, hands stuffed deep
in your denims
collar gulled up
high, your careless hair waving reckless goodbyes
your funny raspy voice
still thrumming in low octaves
some senseless words against my ear,
'I love you;
see you...'
Later never comes.

I am bleeding through.
I can't find any one point
to stop this judas-seepage.

and somewhere, in the world,
you still walk away.

WHY?

I have neither
The energy nor
The passion
To desire you
A moment longer.

You drained me
As the sun drains
Life out of a pasture.
Turning life giving soil
Into life destroying dust.

I now ask myself
One question; Why?
Not wanting for answers of
You leaving me,
But wanting answers TO; why
I trusted you.

I gave all
You lost nothing.
For this I should
Have not given anything
To you, especially my soul.

It pains me
To write these lines,
For loving you
And liking you
Gave me spark
To rekindle passion's flame,
That was lost for eon's.

I loved you!
I liked you!
With one phone call
You murdered me,
Rendering any wishes
Of loving again, as dry
A pasture totured by
An unrelenting sun.

Lost Ryan

I met a guy

He was everything I can dream of

When I was with him

Nothing else mattered

He would always brighten my day

And put a smile on my face

For once in my life

I was happy

Then one day

Things turned ugly

When he told me he doesnt love me

He never did

It was all a lie...

all I can do is cry and ask. "WHY?"

He wanted to stay friends

I was still in shock to absorb

One statement I made

Proved that he's a boy not a man

He ran away fearing I'm with his child

and I never heard from him again

My life is shattered

My heart still throbs in pain

No more tears falling

My eyes are dry yet my mind still cries

Feeling like nothing can go right

That I will never find someone

Who truly loves me

YOU TURNED UP MISSING

YOU TURNED UP MISSING

You waylaid the galaxies
with the slip of your hand
sewing light years together with
silken word-threads
(borrowed spider webs)
you walked without spoor
without disturbing the grass
in the lull
in between our storms.
You used sagebrush and raven feathers
in your timeless prayers,
a broken clay pot at your feet, humble-proud
oh I loved your mind I loved your way.

You said, 'I don't trust anyone don't clip me
don't fall in the cracks wait for me
on solid ground
I'll meet you on the wing.'

I believed anything
was possible in your light.
You sang me silvery
in your half-delivered song.

You painted kaleidoscope pictures
(with the broken toys left you)
on the waiting night-canvas
beseeching me, making sense of nothing
that counted;
but you counted nothing
by numbers, -by standards, -by comme il faut
You counted by the birdless sky
and the wayward stars the
drifting leaves and desperate gaps
you spoke your life by.
You listened to the space
in between the beats
unable to heed the signals
I knew feebly how to give.
You canceled our class in the middle.

I said,
'Establish the boundary, my Love.'
You said,
'Trade ME for something of value.'

Tears are made by every twist of the heart.
But priceless were your offerings
now more remote than the cold fingers of space.

jusqu'à ce que je vous reverrai

jusqu'à ce que je vous reverrai

Soon I’ll forget today.
I just walked away.
Couldn’t find a reason stay.
Don’t know if its better this way.

This heart of mine weighs heavy with uncertainty and fear.
Didn’t think of where to go from here.
The journey begins from the one I hold dear.
I guess I continue walking till the darkness of despair becomes clear…

REGRETS

I’m sorry for my silence, no response,
When our newborn love attention claimed,
When heartless dark no comfort brought
There in the port, on midnight berth,
When souls so longed to go to sea
To sail towards dawn of hope and dreams,
To scatter smoky twilight mist,
Come to believe in love as sheer bliss,
Where sparks of words and dazzling stars
Burned with the heat of accord so divine.
It’s pity world was such a complex task for us
That links and parts entangled, intertwined,
Were broken, cut and torn for good at last...
We proved to be on parting of our paths,
Now only time runs on its course as water does,
And someone else is spinning globe for us.

The Candy Store

Remember when you where a kid? As soon as you got five cents you where off to the candy store to get a piece o sweets. Well guess what I figured out. Once I grew up I became part of the sweets that one would find in the GROWN-UP CANDY STORE. The sweets changed yet the concept stayed the same.

NOW YOU HAVE MAN AND WOMAN:

MAN = FIVE CENT

WOMAN = SWEETS

ONCE MAN GET'S FIVE CENTS HE WANT'S AS MUCH SWEET'S AS HE CAN GET NOW HE IS THE FIVE CENT'S

SWEETS IS THE WOMAN AND SHE WILLING TO GIVE OF HERSELF WITH NO REGRETS,HOWEVER FIVE CENTS HAS OTHER PLANS.HE KNOWS THAT HE CAN GET SEVERAL PIECES OF SWEETS IF ONLY HE HAD MORE. HE USES HIS CHARM ON HIS FIRST PIECE OF SWEETS SO THAT SHE WOULD BELIEVE THAT SHE IS THE ONLY PIECE THAT HE HAS.YET I KNOW BETTER THEN TO BELIEVE THAT I'M THE ONLY PIECE THAT HE HAS.BECAUSE FIVE CENTS HAS LESS TIME TO SPEND WITH ME LET ALONE CALL LIKE WHEN HE ONLY HAD FIVE CENTS.WELL NOW HE HAS FIFTEEN CENTS MORE.HE RUNS BACK TO THE CANDY STORE FOR MORE. NOW THAT MR.FIVE CENT IS MR.FIFTEEN CENT HE WILL NEVER SEE THAT THAT FIRST PIECE OF SWEETS HE BOUGHT WITH HIS FIVE CENTS WAS THE BEST HE WOULD EVER HAVE IN HIS LIFETIME.

SO PLEASE LEAVE THE CANDY STORE TO THE KIDS!

hurt

my heart sees the pain
of the lies behind your eyes
what do you gain?
