the truth
an original song by p. bruns. written in 2008, and recored in a little studio outside san angelo texas. on the c.d. titled 'simple'. thanks for reading.
I'm up late again.
feels like the sun went down 20 years ago.
it's like I'm waiting for someone.
I'm waiting for someone that I don't know.
I haven't met you yet, and I can't wait...
a sleepless night again
and the t.v. spews out noise - chaotic.
it's like I'm lookin for something
when I find it again I'll know I got it
I haven't found it yet, and I can't wait...
We'll go on and on. the world will fade.
time will pass, I'll serenade.
the flowers will bloom before our eyes
we'll daydream under moonlit skies.
on and on, and we'll have fun.
you'll be my girl, I'l tell everyone
someday we'll look back and see
the truth about the world
the truth about .... you and me.
I'm shaving the last 2 verses off. artistic lisence. :)

About this poem:
this was written for 'that girl' ya know. obvious. it kinda goes with the bottle of wine that my sis-in-law gave to me 7 years ago. 'save this for 'that girl' she said. I still have it. :)'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.
"CAN I LOVE YOU?"
You won't let me love you,
It's ashame, so sad yet true,
Tell me now what do I do?
Tell me how will I get through?
If you knew what you meant to me,
You would know we were meant to be,
But maybe I am wrong, unfortunately,
Not good enough, all along I couldn't see.
I only wanted to gain your trust,
But obviously, it wasn't enough,
What I wouldn't do, to feel your touch,
One more time, I miss you so much!
I did all I could, to keep you near,
I gave it my all, blood, sweat and tear,
Why you left me, still isn't clear,
A life without you, I truly fear!
You made me smile, and made me complete,
Only for awhile, but your loving was sweet,
It wasn't long, before you swept me off my feet,
With you I belong, without you I am beat.
You called me a cheater and a liar,
Eventhough you are my only desire,
You are my heart, my soul, my fire,
I love you to death, until I expire.
You won't let me love you,
It's ashame, so sad yet true,
Tell me now what do I do?
Tell me how will I get through?
I tell you time and time again,
But I don't think you comprehend,
What I am feeling deep within,
And what I mean, it's a no-win.
I wish you would open your eyes,
Instead of feeding into men's lies,
I'm not like them, when will you realize?
Your heart I can mend, you'd be surprised!
I never hurt you, and never will,
But do I deserve you? I doubt it still,
The hole in your heart, I can refill,
Give me the okay, I'll start, real deal.
To take your hand in marriage,
Is my ideal life, living life lavish,
To make you my wife, all the rest I'd salvage,
Cause being with you, is all that matters!
I miss our talks,
I miss our walks,
Your presence still stalks,
My mind like the hawks.
You won't let me love you,
It's ashame, so sad yet true,
Tell me now what do I do?
Tell me how will I get through?
Without you I'm nothing,
But with you I'm something,
No matter your assumptions,
Case closed, end of discussion.
You tell me you love me and care,
But I'm over here, and you're there,
I could shed a tear, this life unfair,
All I want is my dear, this life we shared.
Driving down this one-way road,
No turning back, I'm losing control,
I just want you back, that's all I know,
With each day that subtracts, another day untold.
Of what my future may hold,
Us together, growing old?
Us forever, or should I fold?
Leave you, never, you are my gold!
You are my treasure,
You are my pleasure,
And my endeavor,
Together life will get better.
But you won't let me love you,
It is ashame, so sad yet true,
Tell me now what do I do?
Tell me how will I get through?
Can I love you?

About this poem:
LOVE POEM
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.
Home
There's a a place that I know
Outside of town
Theres a place that I go
Outside of town.
Over the mountain
Down a dusty ol' road
Under shade of tall trees
I drive real slow
To catch the cool breeze
And begin to unload
The cares of the day
Cuz I know that soon
Not far up the road
Is the pretty little place
That I call my home
There's a place that I know
Outside of town
There's a place that I go
Outside of town
Over the mountain
Down a dusty ole road
My sweetheart's a waitin
At the top of the hill
At the pretty little place
That I call my home
When I see her blue eyes
My heart goes to meltin
As I hold her and kiss her
And tell her I love her
She asks how my day went
I say alright I guess
But when I'm at home
Its always the best
Cuz there's a place that I know
Outside of town
There's a place that I go
Outside of town
Over the mountain
Down a dusty ole road
Is a pretty little place
That I call my home
Outside of town
Theres a place that I go
Outside of town.
Over the mountain
Down a dusty ol' road
Under shade of tall trees
I drive real slow
To catch the cool breeze
And begin to unload
The cares of the day
Cuz I know that soon
Not far up the road
Is the pretty little place
That I call my home
There's a place that I know
Outside of town
There's a place that I go
Outside of town
Over the mountain
Down a dusty ole road
My sweetheart's a waitin
At the top of the hill
At the pretty little place
That I call my home
When I see her blue eyes
My heart goes to meltin
As I hold her and kiss her
And tell her I love her
She asks how my day went
I say alright I guess
But when I'm at home
Its always the best
Cuz there's a place that I know
Outside of town
There's a place that I go
Outside of town

Down a dusty ole road
Is a pretty little place

Post CommentFour Leaf Clover
If love is black and white why am I red all over
I dont want to fight
I just want to run for cover
But if you push me again
Im telling you now
That its the end , Its the end of your four leaf clover
Of this one true love
Two hearts that beat as one
Without a doubt
Three strikes your out
Dont wanna hear it anymore
Its the end,Its the end of your four leaf clover
Lucky in the world
Everything that you do
Seems to turn to gold for you
But you cant sell a heart thats black
What we had aint coming back
Cause its the end, Its the end of your four leaf clover
Love is black and white
There aint no shades of grey
I turn my back to the wind
Sorry things turned out this way
Now Im facing the Sun
Cause its over, gonna find me a four leaf clover.

Post CommentFalsebound 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

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.
50 Ways to Pick Your Pocket
I know you saved up all year long
You wanted your kids to sing a song
about the vacation to Disney World
There must be 50 ways to pick your pocket
There must be 50 ways to pick your pocket
Just ride on the tram Sam
Buy a mug Doug
Buy your kid a doll Paul
Just listen to me
Eat a Mickey Mouse icecream Jean
You don't need to discuss cost
Just get a fast pass for that ride Clyde
And set yourself free
I know you feel abused by Mickey
If you want real abuse ask the workers
Who run Disney World
Or the Haitians who make all the Disney merchandise
There must be 50 ways to pick your pocket
There must be 50 ways to pick your pocket
Just pick up the bill Bill
Buy some Mickey clubs Bub
Stay in the hotel Del
Just listen to me
Buy a toy Roy
Eat a snack Mack
Ride a new thrill Jill
and set yourself free
You wanted your kids to sing a song
about the vacation to Disney World

About this poem:
I went to Disney World in 2004, 1100 lighter in my billfold. I just wish I had went when I was eight.
gotta change it
I lost myself in youre heart and drift away and those are the days I want to rembemer... all the good times and not the bad.... I just want to feel my heart beat again... so please let those bad dreams fade away from me... please just fade away... because I know tommarow will be a better day so just let me fade out this day and change in my own way oh i need to just look at myself in the mirror and be ok with it all.

About this poem:
I wrote this when i was Listen to bleed by Cold FT. Arron Lewis of staind.Broken Dreams
Fears that i know will never show.
My burdons will die with me.
My heart will stay hidden, ripped at the seems.
Im a broken man
A shattered shell
Of what im meant to be.
Vacant
Black
Drowning amongst ignorence & selfishness
with no shore in sight.
Just sounds of yes and no
in oceans of maybe's.
Im a broken man
A shattered soul
Of what it use to be.
Broken promises
A life filled with pain.
I now know that the only
certainty in life, is death.
I am nothing
No one
Empty
Hollow
Forgetful
Forgotten
Im a broken man
A shattered shell
Of what im meant to be.
No longer will you fill these thoughts
Of torn apart, broken dreams
My burdons will die with me.
My heart will stay hidden, ripped at the seems.
Im a broken man
A shattered shell
Of what im meant to be.
