We pray...

We pray to many things to God
And we hope from him to make
Our wishes come true very fast
But we forget to pray for one
Important thing to God-which?

To make us to know ourselves
To make us to accept ourselves
To teach us to love ourselves.
We ask God to help us to find our half.
How?If we can't find ourselves?

We pray to God only we need
By something or we loose someone dear us
Why we can't pray to god for simply fact
We exist in this world?

New York...inspires love

Marry me, let's elope to the big apple,
Let's start our life here,
Let's make babies, they sure will love it here
Lets strall down Broadway, those lights were made for us,
Let's take a cruise down Hudson river, that too was created for our love, Let's go up the Empire State Building, and watch the end of the horizon, that's how far our love will stretch...
Hell New York will be our home,
New York, New York, the lyrics of the city are yours and mine to write...

Like a warm African breeze

Like a warm African breeze I will adorn your vision;
Like the summer’s sweat drop I will tantalise your senses

I am an Africa beauty indulge me

My presence beckons your attention
My eyes glows with sincerity
My voice, a melody of life’s encounters
My scent rich, and arousing

I am an Africa beauty indulge me

I am the reality of hope
I am the epitome of beauty
I am your woman

I am an Africa beauty indulge me

My hands turn soil to a nourishing garden;
My hands whip-up a meal to brighten a day;
My hands are magical;
My touch is soothing and healing;

I am an Africa beauty indulge me

My heart is a heavenly home;
My eyes lead you to unimaginable passion;
My lips are succulent;
My hips are …… oh so good

I am an Africa beauty indulge me

I am whole;
I am complete;
God’s perfect creation;
I am an African beauty… why not indulge me!!

TOODLES

prose for a love lost

wow how my arms missed you
how my lips knew where yours where
the taste the passion remains the same
the premice the reality
the fact i drew my chair near to type shows
the passion you instill even now
...............
the truth i pray you know is in my soul for you own it
the words the hope the laughter
the smile you gave to me ..thru the touch of your fingertips the energy !!
the desire in the message sent
the first you tell me ....the passage ahead unclear
the life sought not gone the way of the dodo .. the weekend revealing
so alive in the eyes of our loved ones ...
if that is so will we ever be forgotten xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

the sea

Dead so pretty as the sea
I have your cold
Holding me
This loneliness kills me

Without words she let me
Without fear she breathe the air
So strong and sure how can I embrace her
Without solutions I rest and think
Now that even god your god
Lost his hope can’t help me

Alone always alone drowning in this
Where my little decays
Of my turbulent sunshine of life
Where in this in fortune will condemn me
Forever will burn my skin and destroy it

Pain

Are you relieved
or do you feel pain
from whats happened
what was there to gain

all my life
I've been looking for you
someone smart, sweet, and beautiful
that i could talk to

this enduring pain
of the torment in my heart
makes me wonder why you said yes in the start

but I'm glad
that you gave me a chance
instead of looking past
without even a glance

i wish
that it wouldn't reach an end
but i will always see you as
more than just a friend

i hope you can see me
as you did when you said yes
because right now my heart is low
and cannot plummet any less

Theatre In The Mist

Theatre In The Mist

Like curtains drawn over the hill in a cloudy cloth
the still mist hangs concealing man's forward path.
Bald patches on wooded heads in audience appear
as Autumn in style bows out of its part for a year,
to a bad tempered Winter rehearsing in the wings
who enters stage left when his northern wind sings.
Mimicking the last wolf searching for his lost band
heartbroken in his quest he forsakes the land,
To man, who relentlessly drove him into time's mist
extinct yet still calling for the eerie wind will insist.
Now slowly come the changes in what man pursues
for my part I wonder how much nature can excuse.
Man, who in greed took the land with all it can give
assuming after this there is another life he can live.
how, in quick time, his sins to nature he will forget
that he enters heaven, forgiven, and yet, and yet!

The Game

It started as a game
Between two who were in love
Not thinking of the consequences
Or what it would conceive of

Thinking in the moment
Not looking at what’s right ahead
Not thinking of the nearby sin
Of which they both will dread

Playing the game of love
Thinking nothing could go wrong
When it was the options of a life or a sin
The lovers had to be strong

They had to decide whose life they wanted
The baby’s or their own
For if the baby came into the world
They would have struggled and this was known

On the other hand if they chose to kill
The child that was soon to come
They would have suffered an immortal sin
Now to a decision they must succumb

The game of love that the lovers played
Should have been ended from the start
So much trouble from the lovers’ game
With so much pain on the heart

Regrets

Like a bullet shot from a sniper rifle
I get upset over the smallest trifle
I explode when you’re finally in my sight
Because us apart does not feel right

I grip the trigger of my existence
Trying to close the gap of our distance
Because as I do that a part of me flies
Into your sight and before you eyes

Some things I say that I do not mean
But the pain I’ve caused is not unseen
It kills me to know that I can make you cry
While I pierce your heart, it makes me die

To see how rotten I have finally become
To hurt you so bad and act like I’m numb
Numb to your emotions and numb to your pain
And now all of your joy I seem to drain

Feeding on people like Hannibal Lector
When all the while I want to be your protector
To be the person you come to each night
Eliminate all darkness and show you only light

Instead I have become your disease
Eating away with the simplest ease
At everything good that we once shared
I only do this because I am scared

I fear for the loss of someone I love
Someone for some reason, I only write of
Be it good be it bad my feelings never change
But anger and sadness are the usual exchange

These things inside tell me what’s true
And if things change in time, I will always pursue
To find us together as we were before
For you will always be, the on that I adore

How hard it is to think of the person you cherish
No longer be in your life, apart of you would perish
Because everything in you says she’s the one
And all the mistakes you’ve made can’t be undone

You brought life into my dreary world
You brought love in as the consciousness twirled
A brand new feeling of someone that cared
But many more memories that I wish we could have shared

It’s sickening to the stomach of any person
And it only makes the situation worsen
I just wish you could look into my heart
To see that you are where it starts

Invisible

With every turn I see your face
I gouge out my eyes just to erase
The sight of you from within my mind
For how can I see you if I am blind

You broke me in pieces too small to see
And with the wind blows my debris
To never be pieced all in one
For what you did cannot be undone

As with a boulder that’s to fade and erode
Or with the fireworks that fly and explode
Both become lost and forgotten in time
But at the moment, they seemed so sublime

There lies a hole every here and there
But with this hole no chance to repair
Once its dug it can’t be refilled
No matter how hard we try to rebuild

As with the salt that we grind so fine
There only seems to be a glimmer of a sign
That anything was even there to start
So is my case of my broken heart.
