I have always done my Christmas shopping early
Some may say I'm kinda squirrely
They love to shop on Thanksgiving and Black Friday
I say no way!
Get all that materialism out of the way early
So you can avoid a bunch of bargain hunter who behave too surely
I went yesterday on November first
To avoid all those people who behave the worst
Thanksgiving should be a day off for all
Not another reason to go to the mall
Some people never get a day off
Working seasonal jobs even if they have to cough
To give presents to some relatives they see only once a year
Getting together with people, if they weren't related, they'd steer clear
So now that I'm done with all the present buying
I can focus on things that won't leave me crying
Like Christmas movies and shows like Alf's Turkey In The Straw
About Alf befriending a homeless man who steers clear of the law
Or good food like turkey and pumpkin pie
And Peppermint Patty chewing out Charlie Brown
While he stand there with a sigh
It's more fun when we're not trying to save a buck
And if we do it right, we'll be in luck
For a Thanksgiving and Christmas that will be filled with joy
I hope yours is also one where you can say "Oh Boy!"
May all your holidays be shiny and bright
So we can all have a silent night

I dream of you
Do dreams come true
I hope so
Cos I dream of you
Behind closed eyes
Asleep at night
I kiss you
Behind my closed eyes
When morning comes and starts a brand-new day
It fills me more than words really say
The love that grows
That won’t go slow
Try not show
But the dreams the night-time brings won’t go away
You’re in my arms
You feel so warm
Love-ing you
You’re here in my arms
Holding me tight
Asleep at night
I need you
Holding me so tight
But when morning comes and starts a another day
You still fill my thoughts in every single way
I try not show
But It won’t go slow
This love that grows
And the dreams the night-time brings are here to stay
Behind closed eyes
All through the night
I love you
Behind my closed eyes
I dream of you
Can dreams come true
I hope so
Cos I dream of you

November tears fall asleep
to their music,
the noise of fallen leaves,
fast twilight that steals
a ray of sunshine
dry grass
on the hills of Poloniny.
November tears flow
in lonely times
as if they wanted
to clean the world
wash away
autumn dreams from the streets,
dance the last time with the wind
and go away into oblivion.

Should fate decree I win your love...
Then sure as there are stars above...
A lifetime's seeking now is done...
My search has led me to the ONE...
With beauty far beyond compare...
A wondrous love with me to share...
Two souls as one, two hearts entwined...
TOGETHER 'TIL THE END OF TIME.

Loneliness takes on a taste for me
red Sophi semi dry
tested to kill thoughts.
Loneliness,
it's a return to the apartment,
where nobody waits.
Loneliness,
It's a morning look in the mirror
where do you see the signs
passing time.
Loneliness,
is the empty bed you are going to.
Loneliness,
they are relationships that they only took
giving nothing
Loneliness,
this is the moment when you ask yourself a question
what's wrong with you
Loneliness,
it's internal pain.
Loneliness,
is a pillow in which you shed tears.
Loneliness,
is the time when you realize
that you love her
and that scares you.

I can't unhear the words you say to me
You can't take those words back
What is said, is said and words do hurt
You can say sorry, sorry can only go so far
I can't unhear the words you've said, You've said them so many times
I am not perfect and I don't expect you to be
Disagreements are going to happen as you are you and I am just me! You have scarred me and when I'm about to heal, you reopen the wounds that I've managed to seal
You cannot unbreak the broken,
you can't undo the done
You can't unhear what has already been spoken and you can't take back the words you have said. Take caution in your words for you never realize how sharp the blade of your tounge.
Shadows of the pain replay in my mind! Different situations same old routines.
Nothing cute or clever to say..... Just left in all this pain.

Dusk,
a lullaby of hidden desires
with faster breathing
drunken hopes.
Dusk,
aurora touch
with the smell of promises.
Dusk,
a touch of wind on the skin
the sensitivity of giving.
Dusk
receiving
every particle
our existence.

The body trembles in anticipation
on touch.
I close my eyes and wait
until your hand
circle incomprehensible
characters
paving the way
oncoming
performance.

What is love
Slavery or liberation?
Reward or punishment?
On a sunny day,
or dark night?
I do not remember
But I'm dying without her
