'simple'
it's a simple...thing to...wake up dreaming
things happen. but what's really going on?
nothing but simple...things you...follow a routine
shit happens. and before too long
you find yourself...watching years fly away
if you find yourself...maybe you'll decide to stay
beside yourself. beside yourself.
it's a simple thing for me to watch the time and wonder why
some things happen for some people, some things pass me by.
everything that happens has a reason so they say
maybe in the end it'll make some sense. till then I'll have to wait.
I'll find myself in good company
as long as you are here with me
beside myself. I'm beside myself.

About this poem:
title track from the c.d 'simple' recorded in tx in 2008.
Falsebound Fairytale (completed)
we were meant to be together and never fall apart
we were so good together we knew right from the start
we were the perfect match we gave eachother our hearts
we were the ones that would make it through it all
no matter what came our way we would always stand so tall
above the towers above all of the walls
above the opinions, and things we were called
never thought the day would come when our love came to a halt
and never did i ever imagine it would be all my fault
or so you had me believe.
(chorus)why did i say goodbye when she never meant hello
why was i so nice why did i sell my soul
i treated her like a princess in her kingdom made of lies
she treated me like a slaveboy no matter how i tried
it started like a fairy tail but we ended up in hell
but now that its all over i can finally breathe...and i can finally be myself
We were never meant to stay together it was all lies from the start
i was a fool and should have realized i wasted the space in my heart
you treated me like a piece of garbage and you ripped my soul apart
you always told me we would stay together and nothing could get in our way
you said if we ever had troubles that everything would be ok
then you cheated on me and i forgave you and i took all the blame
you said you were sorry and that you can really change
the second time i wanted to but inside it drove me insane
i lost all my trust in you and you said it was causing you pain
i said its hard but its ok and you said you are sorry again
why am i so easily decieved?
(chorus)why did i say goodbye when she never meant hello
why was i so nice why did i sell my soul
i treated her like a princess in her kingdom made of lies
she treated me like a slaveboy no matter how i tried
it started like a fairy tail but we ended up in hell
but now that its all over i can finally breathe...and i can finally be myself
things got better, we were bonding together and we almost got engaged
i loved you with everything i had but some things never change
the third time was the very last time my mind would be ok
i almost forgave you because you looked so hurt inside
but i got wise and started to thinking why do this to my mind
i got mad so i packed up my s**t and left it all behind
you begged and begged and you came crawling back with those shitty tears you cried
i said go away i dont want to see you i dont want to see your eyes
she said im sorry and i said im sorry and i felt so bad inside
but you need to go now and dont come back you need to answer your crimes
but i wish you the best
(chorus)why did i say goodbye when she never meant hello
why was i so nice why did i sell my soul
i treated her like a princess in her kingdom made of lies

About this poem:
i wrote this song because at first i was upset and guilty that we broke up but then after a few days looking back i realized how she treated me and i actually felt good about the breakup...this is pretty much the story of my last relationship.
A Long Haired Angel
A long haired angel,
staring back at me,
she looks so happy she looks so free.
She looks so peaceful
hanging out in that tree,
oh I wish, she was still here with me.
A long haired angel,
her eyes are closed,
I love the way she stood, and the way she posed.
Now that she has,
gone away,
oh I wish, I had the nerve to say.
That long haired angel,
I miss her so.
I wish she did not,
have to go.
Her brain was not
in the right place,
oh I wish, I could just touch her face.
A long haired angel,
is up above,
that is where she thought she belonged.
She took her life
with a rope and a tree,
Now she feels, so nice, nice and free.
That long haired angel,
I miss her so.
I wish she did not,
have to go.
Her brain was not
in the right place,
oh I wish, I could just see her face.
staring back at me,
she looks so happy she looks so free.
She looks so peaceful
hanging out in that tree,
oh I wish, she was still here with me.
A long haired angel,
her eyes are closed,
I love the way she stood, and the way she posed.
Now that she has,
gone away,
oh I wish, I had the nerve to say.
That long haired angel,

I wish she did not,

About this poem:
This is a song I made for a girl I knew that comiting suicide.
Inside
The light goes dark,
and there is me,
a twisted creature that I see.
Cold penetrates the warmth of heat,
the drugs they seem to be so sweet.
A figure molds and makes anew,
it tells the host what it must do.
It knows the way of which to go,
the lights go dim here comes the show.
People know from which it came,
this feeling seems to have no name.
Dream and still there is another,
woven in sleeps dark dense cover.
and there is me,
a twisted creature that I see.
Cold penetrates the warmth of heat,
the drugs they seem to be so sweet.
A figure molds and makes anew,
it tells the host what it must do.
It knows the way of which to go,
the lights go dim here comes the show.
People know from which it came,
this feeling seems to have no name.
Dream and still there is another,
woven in sleeps dark dense cover.

About this poem:
I wrote this about ten years ago, I write poetry when I need that release of pain, anger, the negative things that crawl around in your mind.Leave me alone
How could have done me the way that you did
You said that you loved me, but you didn't love me a bit
Feel like my heart has been ripped from my chest
My mind is all blown, and my life is a mess
You lied to me right in front of your kids
They tried to keep your secret hid
I wouldn't do a dog that way
All you ever had to do,is open your mouth and say
Leave me alone, just leave me alone
Things have finally turned around
My feet have hit the ground
Leave me alone, just leave me alone
How could you have done me the way that you did?
you said that you love me, but you didn't love me a bit

Post CommentI wish you the best
It's over now
we're really through
I wish you the best
I really do
You have a new love
that's alright with me
I think it's time to
let things be
no more telephone calls
don't send me a text
I think it's time to
put this thing to a rest
hope life is good
I wish you the best
I'm older now
so are you
it's just to much
to keep going through
You have a new love
that's alright with me
I think it's time to
let things be
no more telephone calls
don't send me a text
I think it's time to
put this thing to a rest
hope life is good
I wish you the best

Post CommentWASTING TIME
Long ago you felt on top
Then you fell too low
and just kept droppin'
Now the more you lose
the less you try
So with hype and silver spoon
You're high again
then down too soon
And the less you take
the more you cry
(CHORUS)
"Well, I'm all right
I'm OK
I just need time"
Yeah, it's what you tell me
Yeah, it's what you say
I used to rock
while you would role
You'd stay to talk
and smoke a bowl
Then you'd tell me dreams
while you were high
You want to soar
in giant jets
But felt too sore
from losing bets
And the model planes you build
won't fly
(CHORUS)
But "I'm all right
I'm OK
I just need time"
Yeah, it's what you tell me
when you feel this way
"I'm all right"
Ooh, but you're feelin' low
"I'm OK"
So you're doing just fine?
"I just need time"
But I guess you already know,
that you can't help dreams

About this poem:
I wrote this decades ago for an old acquaintance of mine, Louie, who often stopped by to listen to our practice jams and sometimes run our light show. Quite the socialite conversationalist he was, and handsome lady's man ("competition", at the time ...lol ; ) despite our different views about using drugs - I'm not judgemental of others choice to indulge, though I prefer to restrain from their abuse. But even then I knew that he spent far too much time frontin' instead of gruntin', never quite getting his priorities straight (ie, "Business before Pleasure", etc.) He never really grasped that this song was about him, despite my pep talks with him. Ironically, years later, I found out that he had overdosed on recreational drugs. Any more I am more vocal about cautioning those who will listen about the dangers they seem oblivious to (Read also "The 'Pillar" for inspiring that particular sect of individuals). Well, I hope posting this wasn't a Waste of Time.DECEPTION
So your heart calls out for a perfect match but the most of the matches choosen choke ur heart starving for reasons to believen true love but ur hanging on by a thread the next step is a noose instead in ur head u picture happiness n harmony where love lives harmlessly untouchable by the thieving hunters only to see more blood n tears for years u stay helpless fearful of loves excellence asking y u haven't felt this kind of passionate perfection preventing ur self from finding the one ment for ur hearts match attempts of attraction fail u seem To think all love Is lost just a fairy tale Baby you're Beautiful in Every way shape & form, even in the early mornings so damn gorgeous take your time at the mirror low self-esteem but all I see is a Beautiful queen so perfect just the way you are so baby just stop saying you arnt

What is love?STORY OF TEARS
OStories of tears & years of heart break hearts face battles of loves great existence or episodes of lusts visions a picture perfect relationship or broken hearts fightin for love again a bunch of lies & lonely nights all alone & wishing u had someone to hold or Hold u is losin love supposed to feel so cold like Alaskas snow hoping on a sunny day a person to bring a smile to that pretty face facing changes of challenging chapters of ur life wonder if love really lasts & exists or is it just a mysterious myth & feeling like ull b alone for a lifetime to come searching for the right one to love u right or cry quietly everynight thinking of suicide or cutting urself just to feel alive again against the world & all ur good friends love kills but it is possible to find it again
