"Because I know what love is"

Because I know what love is
I ask nothing in return
Because I know what love is
I ask no evidence

Even if you're not here
Love is here
Now
Even if you have to go
Love to go there
Though

I know it's forever
As long as
I only ask
What I can give

Because I know what love is
I know that every word matters
Because I know what love is
I know that there is only one answer

Without why I bring you here
Love is here
Me
Without why I take so
Love is in me
More living

Because I know what love is

North America Thanksgivings

Chatter of knives an forks on the plates turkey n ham harvests in now. Family's in chairs soft is the air gathering of thanks the only exchange. Purest of holidays all's to share's food an space. Pass the food back an forth's the only give an take, simple time we get commercialized an expectation free. Catching up with each other of days have passed by a time to rekindle re-fuel loved ones family an friends in your life. Thanksgiving's truly my favourite time a year~

My Dear Old Ma.....

Walking in boldy, i take off these muddy shoes
With hope in my mind, i know i cannot lose
Because my working day is done, and evening now is born
Its good to know i have her around, without life is torn

That same smell all around, as i warmly start to roam
Its true what they say you know, theres no place quite like home
My dear old ma, sits here all day, to wait for my arrival
Without my sweet and caring old mum, no time for fit survival

The ship is full, the captain stands for her duty
Full steam ahead, cos this sail will sail a beauty
Its the evening meals i like, to catch up on the day
To thank her for the love she's give, i now begin to pay

I guess this message is warm and true
Without my mum, i dont know what i'd do
I want to give back, for the life she has give
My dear old mum, i'll see you peacefully live

Pointless

I go out Monday nights
when bars are empty.
I long for a connection
but nothing happens

People are at home,
holding a babies,
watching telly,
or writing stuff like this

Ma

We sat at the Christmas dinner table
eating the four course meal she’d just made

this time last year
she lay in hospital
waiting to die

I asked her to sum up in a sentence or a word
what she’d learnt in the past year

“Live” she said
and continued eating

Doors

Sometimes I wander through the halls of my mind...
Testing each door.
Will that one open today? Is that one still locked?

A scent, a sound, a glimpse of another time...
Takes me back in my life.
Wandering down the paths of my mind.

Do I have any regrets, is that wound healed?
Is the sense of wonder and awe still there?
Do I remember that flower, is it still fragrant and new?

Are my dreams still in color, bursting with passion and joy?
Do I find myself happy or full of sorrows this day?

Sometimes I wander through the halls of my mind...
Testing each door.
That door opened today, another memory set free.

wrong time

i was a kid when i begin loving you,
i don't know the meaning of love but i felt it
it was a mistake i know,
to take a you as a vow

rush,oh gush
i felt it at the wrong time
hoping to correct it fine.

time decides,
when the wrong becomes right
and the uncorrect becomes correct..
wait for the right time,
don't rush for you will just go for a gush

time decides
time waits
time of right love will come,hold on
just wait

Why is so hard..

Why is so hard to find true love
A sincere love based on true
True feelings,respet and honesty.

Why is so hard to find u partener
Maybe the distance,or the world
In we live full of lies,untrust
And greedy by money.

Why is so hard to have trust
To feel and to hope in
A true love ,in a honest
Love with sincere feelings

What If

What if I was beginning to fall for you
Would you neglect my heart
Would you tear it apart
What if I offered my undying love
And promised to never hurt you
That's the last thing I would ever do
What if I offered to give myself unto you
My heart, my being, my soul
My warmth to keep you from the cold
What if I held open my arms
Would you run into my embrace
And let me kiss the tears from your face
What if I asked you to be mine
Would you open your heart to let me in
Would this be the day our life began

Its winter time

Sitting on my bed looking out of my window
The pitta pata of the rain out side
The doom and gloom of the wintery rain
The dark ,blackend sky

The cold outside the rain pouring down
The last of the autum now the leafs falling of the branches of the Distant trees
Once again the closing in of the winter on a cold blowy day

The leafS darkend decayed lying scattered randomly around blowing in The air off the trees falling all around
Once again winter draws in fast its icey blast and chills of winters Ice the incoming dark nights the cold in the sky its winter again
