DOWN LIFE'S ROAD
Whistle as you wander down life's road,
Will you become an eagle or a toad?
Cause you don't know what each new day will bring,
So play and prance and laugh and dance and sing,
Trouble as you wander down life's road,
You weaken underneath the heavy load,
And you don't know exactly what to do,
Fight with all your might crash on through,
Steady now you wander down life's road,
You are becoming what you've always known,
And now you know what wisened days will bring,
Reach out to grab hold of the Brass Ring,
Cautious strides with purpose down life's road,
Thankful that your story can now be told,
Cause now you know what each new day will bring,
So pray and praise and let those Churchbells ring.
Will you become an eagle or a toad?
Cause you don't know what each new day will bring,
So play and prance and laugh and dance and sing,
Trouble as you wander down life's road,
You weaken underneath the heavy load,
And you don't know exactly what to do,
Fight with all your might crash on through,
Steady now you wander down life's road,
You are becoming what you've always known,
And now you know what wisened days will bring,
Reach out to grab hold of the Brass Ring,
Cautious strides with purpose down life's road,
Thankful that your story can now be told,
Cause now you know what each new day will bring,
So pray and praise and let those Churchbells ring.

About this poem:
In our lives we will make billions of decisions, thousands every day. Each has the potential to forever change our lives. So be wise as Solomon, don't let things get you down, and enjoy the journey Down Life's Road.
Skin wear
I've got my heart over my skin
Exposed.. Ready for the viewing..
Like a tattoo, like an emblem,
Like a statement or an anthem..
I've got my heart over my skin
Offered to the sun and the wind
To the cold, the frost and rain
Up to scratches and the pain...
I've got my heart over my skin
My love, my soul, all my feelings
My every note, the words I sing
Engraved along my rugged skin...
I've got my heart over my skin
For it's too big to stay within
And it's easier to make it sing
When every beat is shivering...
I've got my heart over my skin
Warm, fiery little thing
Pulsing, ticking like a bomb
At all moment, every second...
I wear my heart over my skin
Open, exposed, weak and fragile
But protected by a shield
Made of your smile...
Exposed.. Ready for the viewing..

About this poem:
In England, they talk about having your heart on your sleeve... in France we talk about having your heart on the edge of your skin.. à fleur de peau... which is kind of difficult to translate... on the edge doesn't give credit to it.. but the idea is there.. just underneath the surface..I say I wear my heart on my skin.. kinda combination of both languages I guess...
Anyway... I like the text.. I made a nice blues out of it!
Life
It's a long journey
And a hard fate.
There is no elevator going back.
Falls and take-offs again!
I play my life
Like plaing music notes.
I never stop by staircases
And floors.
Only one way ticket.
There is no choice,
Questions and answers.
Who drew a line of fate
On my hand?
And why does it lead me to you ?
I will reach the clouds on foot.
Only that stage from now
Seems to be very difficult.....
And a hard fate.
There is no elevator going back.
Falls and take-offs again!
I play my life
Like plaing music notes.
I never stop by staircases
And floors.
Only one way ticket.
There is no choice,
Questions and answers.
Who drew a line of fate
On my hand?
And why does it lead me to you ?
I will reach the clouds on foot.
Only that stage from now
Seems to be very difficult.....

Letting go
The vagrants call in the shallow night
and they say
Come, work miracles in the land
No bounty awaits in reasoned splendor
But sorrow even for the gifted
Come, work miracles in the land
and they say
Come, work miracles in the land
No bounty awaits in reasoned splendor
But sorrow even for the gifted
Come, work miracles in the land

About this poem:
Exorcism of the selfNo Drink Left For Me
You leave a trail of tears where ever you go.
Of a love not meant to be.
You are closed..... no way in.
There will be no changes in how you feel.
You say this love is holding you against your will.
But it's you that's holding on.
With a heart that's turning to stone.
I would like to reach and take you out.
Show you what true love is all about.
But all the signs say closed........and there is no way in.
You can't see me through the pain.
So I will pass you by.
It is such a shame.
To watch you miss what was a lie.
I could set you free.
Show you what you have missed.
But that will not be.
For I don't want to tread upon the stones.
Of what use to be your heart.
So I will leave you alone.
Maybe one day your living will start.
But it want be with me.
For I can't drink from a cup.
That seems to be empty.
Of a love not meant to be.
You are closed..... no way in.
There will be no changes in how you feel.
You say this love is holding you against your will.
But it's you that's holding on.
With a heart that's turning to stone.
I would like to reach and take you out.
Show you what true love is all about.
But all the signs say closed........and there is no way in.
You can't see me through the pain.
So I will pass you by.
It is such a shame.
To watch you miss what was a lie.
I could set you free.
Show you what you have missed.
But that will not be.
For I don't want to tread upon the stones.
Of what use to be your heart.
So I will leave you alone.
Maybe one day your living will start.
But it want be with me.
For I can't drink from a cup.
That seems to be empty.

Because Of You
You took me to a paddock, and the darkness swelled,
you told me not to panic, and then you showed me hell.
I wanted to run away but, where could I go?
Felt like time never ends, I felt my fear grow.
My mum, made me, cry, and cry.
My dad, he'd fight, he'd fight, because of that night.
You think you gave the child I was some love,
but it wasn't!
You messed me up and so I locked myself,
in my own prison!
I was an outcast when I went to school,
because of you!
Crazy, smoking dope, alcohol, short fuse,
because of you!
Would I have turned out different, no stolen innocence?
If you never took me away, would I be a bit more sane?
Fare better in a crowd, could I stand being held?
Would this broken shell have grown up to take on the world?
I can't let go of it, let go of the past,
Did ya know the damage you did, was going to last.
I take tablets now, so I don't go psycho,
It's why I'm so run down, I just can't let go.

About this poem:
I haven't put any of my lyrics in verses, bridges, etc. because I didn't think people would really want to read the same part over and over again. Each of my lyrics I post is basically the two verses; the bridge/break, pre-chorus, post-chorus and the chorus each once.I see I've turned into a bit of a serial poster so I'll give it a rest after this one.
Can't Take You Down With Me
I'm starting to dim now,
I'm being dragged along.
The hurt I've been endowed,
sadly sings it's song.
Crystal tears are falling,
then cease to well as much.
Somethings happening to me,
my heart is in drought.
And it feels like,
I'm dying inside.
I've lost my want to fight,
does this mean I have died?
I have now stumbled,
into a black hole.
Let go of my hand,
I can't break your hold.
It's not hard to see,
I'm in way too deep.
Please now let me go,
can't take you down with me.
All the stars around me,
wink out one by one.
Darkness encroaching,
hides the light from the sun.
Such a deafening sound,
the silence is so loud.
I'm being dragged around,
way up here beyond the clouds.
Closing my eyes now,
curl up into a ball.
I shut my fears down,
and don't let myself call.
Holding tears back,
keep my pain inside.
Universe turns black,
I just count down time.
And I fall to sleep,
I live in my dreams.
I'm being dragged along.
The hurt I've been endowed,
sadly sings it's song.
Crystal tears are falling,
then cease to well as much.
Somethings happening to me,
my heart is in drought.
And it feels like,
I'm dying inside.
I've lost my want to fight,
does this mean I have died?
I have now stumbled,
into a black hole.
Let go of my hand,
I can't break your hold.
It's not hard to see,
I'm in way too deep.
Please now let me go,
can't take you down with me.
All the stars around me,
wink out one by one.
Darkness encroaching,
hides the light from the sun.
Such a deafening sound,
the silence is so loud.
I'm being dragged around,
way up here beyond the clouds.
Closing my eyes now,
curl up into a ball.
I shut my fears down,
and don't let myself call.
Holding tears back,
keep my pain inside.
Universe turns black,
I just count down time.
And I fall to sleep,
I live in my dreams.

About this poem:
Written about the thoughts I went through when I went through a breakdown during my mid 20's.
Fear Not My Experience!
NEW REVOLUTION
NEW Year,a few here loving
Kindness drew
2017 now to shine out, give
Light
turning things upside down
working for the good,yet upsets
as we circle around!
So,this offering is my prayer
Please give RELIEF our FATHER
GOD,
Help those who try from You to hide
to realize You have children imitating You
to bring clarity from inside
It's not the person they see
in their mind,it's You they try to
ignore & push behind.

About this poem:
This means so many,I may reach out to are not where I am & yet they imagine the very things I So freely offer (as JESUS does & did!).I feel so manyturning away,missing their blessing because it
doesn't appear as they crave it.Feeling tearful for the many who bear the wait & for the ones delaying their own fulfillment!
Underneath
Letters and songs I wrote them. Poems that go on and on again,
but my heart still breaks.
Showed them what I can and can't handle, so they used me like a candle, they let me burn away.
But I can't fight for this, cause this does not exist, and I know why...
Your too damned to see, the pain that lies beneath me.
You won't even dare to try, and see what's really underneath!
The innocence gone and reborn, into a statue so cold and frozen,
But I like it this way.
Scar on my back is still there, faded and worn but lies in layers,
But I love the pain.
And I can't fight for this, if this does not exist, but I know why...
Your too damned to see, the pain that lies beneath me.
You won't even dare to try, and see what's really underneath!
The love I had in my head is now lost,
words hold no meaning anymore in my heart…
I know now, the demon sleeps inside. Breathing yet I still feel dead.
Holding all that's left, drowning in you. No longer mine.
No longer alive!
Your too damned to see, the pain that lies beneath me.
You won't even dare to try, and see what's really underneath!
I'm too damned to be, loved not caged and set free.
And I don't care to try, and heal the pain that's underneath!
but my heart still breaks.
Showed them what I can and can't handle, so they used me like a candle, they let me burn away.
But I can't fight for this, cause this does not exist, and I know why...
Your too damned to see, the pain that lies beneath me.
You won't even dare to try, and see what's really underneath!
The innocence gone and reborn, into a statue so cold and frozen,
But I like it this way.
Scar on my back is still there, faded and worn but lies in layers,
But I love the pain.
And I can't fight for this, if this does not exist, but I know why...
Your too damned to see, the pain that lies beneath me.
You won't even dare to try, and see what's really underneath!
The love I had in my head is now lost,
words hold no meaning anymore in my heart…
I know now, the demon sleeps inside. Breathing yet I still feel dead.
Holding all that's left, drowning in you. No longer mine.
No longer alive!
Your too damned to see, the pain that lies beneath me.
You won't even dare to try, and see what's really underneath!
I'm too damned to be, loved not caged and set free.
And I don't care to try, and heal the pain that's underneath!

About this poem:
Something I wrote long ago for a friend in need. Now I think anyone who's been going through a rough relationship could use this as insight to self. I hope you like & I welcome feedback.MDMA
Come over to the bed, I want to live in ecstasy…
I want to see you get into a trance, in this epic dance you'll see…
Out of that dressing room, I saw you.
Clear as day, pursuing you.
Got your a** standing next to the table,
Wanna challenge me? Bet you can handle.
I got a black tight dress on, if the game plays right it might come off.
I don’t need to know what's going on, just after I'm done, you'll be numb.
Calling my name all night long. Watch them dollar bills fly high Hun.
Watch it when you say I'm high strung. I'm just a Italian who wants some.
They call me The Schi / I'm number 1.
Wind moving hips, lighting struck. Done.
Irish/Italian, come give me some.
I'm only nice when I have won.
Nasty girl, plus one.
Anaconda trying to bite me son.
Found this hot chick, digits on the arm.
We're both Bi, You want to have some fun?...
Got it? Get that. Come here. Get back.
Wanna, I'm going, I gotta, gotta hit that...
MDMA. Wanna live in ecstasy.
MDMA. Taking over me.
MDMA. Take care what you ask of me.
MDMA. Ecstasy…
Look at her? She's my next one.
Going take her out back, get her all sprung.
Watch that slender a** bend over the table.
Once I get her tied down, it's all over.
Wanna watch how she screams loud.
Gotta striper girl who acts proud.
Tiny red head with a fast mouth.
Yet she hits hard, and I've backed down.
Liquored so hard she passed out, wake her back up, it's in now.
Gotta lock her up, she mine now.
A puppet on strings, for me it's fun.
When my d*ck wears off she'll be wanting me.
Get her a** addicted, like she supposed to be.
Get her a** in control, no mind reading.
Jedi mind tricks, infecting me.
When I go to sleep, she is all I see.
Like a nightmare it's haunting me.
When I wake up, she waiting for me.
Like another day in ecstasy…
Got it? Get that. Come here. Get back.
Wanna, I'm going, I gotta, gotta hit that...
MDMA. Wanna live in ecstasy.
MDMA. Taking over me.
MDMA. Take care what you ask of me.
MDMA. Ecstasy…
You want me on the bed hun?
Or back on the table?
With all the lights on, press record on the camera.
Get your a** back drunk on the rum love.
I like it better when you've lost control hun.
Get your, get your a** back drunk on the rum love.
I like it so much better when there's no control on.
Get your, get your a** back drunk on the rum love.
I like it so much better when you have no clothes on.
Going to get me some more of that ecstasy.
Going to watch myself take over me.
Don't know how you did it, but you did it to me.
Got me all hooked in that ecstasy. I need…
Got it? Get that. Come here. Get back.
Wanna, I'm going, I gotta, gotta hit that...
MDMA. Wanna live in ecstasy.
