eyes have mystery
eyes have charm
something about them
can disarm
light up the sky
with sun for a smile
eyes are the ocean
welcoming you in

dive into her eyes
so intoxicating
deep is her hue
sparkling as a star
eyes hypnotise us
eyes conquer heros
who can resist her
eyes so made of pearl

Return To Innocence
Years have gone by
With you packed away in that old musty box
With the rest of my forgotten joys and pains
These years have been kind to you
You've grown to pop the top
And return once more to remind me
I fear you
I tried to conquer you in the only way I knew how
I forgot you existed
Instead of living through the pain you've given me
Accepting it
And breaking through to the other side

You've become an entity unto yourself
I can not ask you how I can defeat you
I don't know if I can try
I hide in my oubliette
Forgetting you
Forgetting even me
Letting fear take control

I may leave cautiously
Search for comfort
To cry a thousand tears from my eyes
In the arms of someone who loves me
Just to be held
No words spoken
To feel a heart beat with mine
That races
To breath again

Sunlight bask upon my skin
Let me battle
Conquer
Maim
Destroy

This fear that eats away at me
Keeping me from myself

Let me shine..
Return to innocence...

Dedicated to fellow rape victims.

'Twas a balmy evening on that village square,
On the path, a little girl she chalked,
A hopscotch grid, for friends to share,
Innocently unaware she was being stalked.

From behind a smoke stained curtain dead eyes stared,
On his warped mind he hatched a lurid plan,
In which a childhood dream would not be spared,
From the wrath of this decrepit evil man.

He placed some money in her little palm,
An invitation to his shop for sweets,
To the monster she did sadly warm,
Fell to the lure of candy coated treats.

The evening shadows moved without a sound,
Passersby were laughing unaware,
Inside her muffled whimperings resound,
A deed most horrid, vile beyond compare.

Shattered she emerged, her smiles not there,
Lost in his disgusting sweaty sheets,
Her story to the world she never shared,
Silence bribed, by a bag of sticky sweets.

Now time has passed and healed, but not as such,
His dirty smell still lingers in her nose,
She scrubbed and scrubbed but can't remove his touch,
Etched sadness on her face, still sorrow shows.

Only memories now of girls at play,
Those woeful songs of grief, she's often sung them,
His sunken bones interred in rotten clay,
In life or death, not one good bone among them !

Even though its been a while i still have things to say
things you never gave me the chance to tell,
so lets get it out of the way,

no more silence and confusion
let me finish what i begun
don't walk away from me this time

spare a moment of your precious time
even now i"m still hurt
whats with the pride? gotta hide whats inside?


cause baby we all know your a jerk and im a fool
how did i fall so hard for some1 like you
your letting me down don't come around
you know who you are


i wont die of a broken heart
and im not gonna fall apart
im not crowling back to you
its just that i have feelings to

And i will never forget that night
were you sent me that text, it said goodbye

so spare me a moment of you preciouse time and say good bye to your pride
nomore holding back whats inside its my turn to say goodbye

A haunting melody drifts through the dark,
Tugging and pulling at strings in my heart,
As I swing and sway the music abounds,
I see the light but move towards the sound,
Slowly as they lower me into the ground,
I'm going to a better place now,
In the empty black is a beautiful song,
Singing of all the things I've done wrong,
Showing what I'll leave behind,
A sad pathetic twisted life,
A horrid world of broken lies,
Now it's not so cold inside,
In a firey room warm and soothing,
This is the doom of my own choosing,
I go to meet my ultimate end,
Come and dance with my friends...

I've been forced to wear
an emotional mask
To experience the pain
of the at hand task.
My dreams were the ones
that gave me away
For I could only wear it
during the day
I did this only
to hide the pain
That lurks beneath the surface
of the reality plain
I only wished
the woulds to heal
To start anew
with my angel.
To know I still cared
it hurt him so bad
For a selfish man
who made me so sad
The sobs and cries emerged
with his sleeping wife's tears
And with Victorious strife
he conquered his fears
Let me go
Dream Giver, please.
And let me sleep,
and dream with ease.

Sunny hues of a rainbow's colors,
lavenders.. sunny buttercup and blue
All transcend me back to a simpler time,
When this world seemed so majestically sublime.
If only I could fly far over
and rise so far above
All of this endless meaningless banter..
All of this needless push and shove..
Find a place to land that I could call my own..
Go back to a simpler place and time..
I just want to go back home..
because it,
Feels like I'm drowning.. sometimes ..
Everywhere I go it seems there's so much hatred
and so damned much contempt..
What happened to live and let live,
and take care of your own..
Now it's everyone for himself and hurry and grab your hat
And ..
Looks like your on your own...
So let it rain on the gates of hell . I don'tmuch care..
Let it thunder and storm.. and burn down your pretty home..
All I want is a place to call my own..
Let me find a place to finally be set free...
A place where I was meant to be..
Any old place will do..

Because I'm a Wildflower..
And I'll be happy wherever it is I land...
In a field of red yellow white or blue..
Don't make much difference to me..
And don't much give a dam,
if it does to you..
Take me or leave me.. I am what I am..
Because I'm a wildflower..
And I will be happy wherever
it is I choose to land..
I'm a wildflower baby...and if I want to
I can even live in the sand..
I'm a wildflower and I don't need anything from you..
A wildflower will survive..
Even with all the neglect heaped on by you.

I used to think that you wanted me to soar,
take off and grow,
Didn't realize then
that you wanted my soul..
I'm a wildflower baby..
And I'll always continue to grow.
I used to love you,but you cut me down
to the ground, so low..
But I'm a wildflower, and I will always pick myself up,
And find a new place to land..
No you'll never hold this wildflower down..
No ....Not ever again.

If I had a girl like you
I would be a king
And the way I would rule
Would cause people to sing

If I had a girl like you
I would be ten feet tall
I could see over every problem
And solve them one and all

If I had a girl like you
I would reach the most distant stars
Each night bring you a precious few
Just because of who you are

If I had a girl like you
I could rest my weary head
I would listen and remember too
Every sweet word you said

Every sweet word you said
Every sweet word you said

Stars glitter the night sky.
Out full is a blue moon.
Chirps from a cricket's cry.
A forest filled with its tune.

Up high in a tree of pine.
Hoots from an owl so wise.
Lights in the eastern skyline.
Our suns glorious rise.

The dawn of a new day.
Life starts to come awake.
A squirrel comes out to play.
Branches twirl in his wake.

Standing in a sea of trees.
He waits for what he needs.
Dreams! his heart they tease.
His demise they just feed.

Tears flow down his face.
Last nights dark emptiness.
No End! Not a trace.
Another day of loneliness.

Moving on he must seek.
He searches for that which is lost.
Years, months, a million weeks.
He strives on, caring no cost.

He just walks on endlessly.
Atop a mountains highest peak.
Over arid deserts aimlessly.
Across a rivers darkest deep.

Buried deep inside his heart.
Lies a love so rare to find.
Though i'm missing a large part.
Her Heart! For which two bind.

I'll continue along my path.
I've walked it OH so long.
I'll search till I find death.
Till I find that which I long.

My love
a taste of sweet choco
with slightly bitter coffee
then we bathe together in citrus lime
cleansing our souls from lust
until the last drop that remains
is our unconditional love
sprinkled with a spice of passion
to keep us going strong
for whatever comes
we will embrace deeply in faith
nudging soft pink thoughts
into each other's dreams
I sweetly greet you
My love
