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.
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?

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.
Heartbreak
How I feel is hard to explain,
causes me too much pain.
I choke up, my throat throbs,
If I speak, then I'll sob.
I don't want to go over,
what happened back then.
I don't want to remember,
what happened back then.
I don't want to think,
and I don't want to ache.
Or I just might sink,
after trauma makes me shake.
I was literally driven insane,
days and days of being crazed.
You treated my love as only mundane,
You'd hear me cry and never be fazed.
T'was better we went our separate ways,
the love we shared turned to pure hate.
In a grave is where our memories should lay,
Not a long enough life for our hate to abate.
Nope, not enough time for mistakes to fade,
not enough magic for those days to be unmade.
And after so many years...
It's still too soon to feel okay,
and still too soon to love again.
causes me too much pain.
I choke up, my throat throbs,
If I speak, then I'll sob.
I don't want to go over,
what happened back then.
I don't want to remember,
what happened back then.
I don't want to think,
and I don't want to ache.
Or I just might sink,
after trauma makes me shake.
I was literally driven insane,
days and days of being crazed.
You treated my love as only mundane,
You'd hear me cry and never be fazed.
T'was better we went our separate ways,
the love we shared turned to pure hate.
In a grave is where our memories should lay,
Not a long enough life for our hate to abate.
Nope, not enough time for mistakes to fade,
not enough magic for those days to be unmade.
And after so many years...
It's still too soon to feel okay,
and still too soon to love again.

About this poem:
How heartbreak felt to me.
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 self
Meager Reason ND
I took a trip to Meager Reason, ND
A place where the gold shore meets the pale Tasman sea
There the deep ocean fills with synergy
And tides crest just for me
Until the edges of the beach are left foaming.
In this great place of Meager Reason, ND,
Melodies played and all the dances were free.
Eager punters shouted "Five on the three!"
Lazy days began and ended happily -
Born of greetings, smiles and spontaneity.
Not really a place, but a space, between we
Of like-mindedness, shared interests (so far, three)
I'm waitin everyday to see if you and me
Can go back to the place, can get back in that space
Oh! Meager Reason ND.
Mmm, Mmmm oh where can you be?
Can the weeks you've been gone be an eternity?
I know you're real - Google searches told me
Of the times you were a boy, drummin, banging keys
And that song that you sung? My smile is all teeth!
I've got the giggles...'cause I loved it.
So, when's the next trip to Meager Reason ND?
Space in your mind, for a time, just for we
You know it will do until I can come see
If those eyes are true green,
And those lips that look sweet,
Are all that I hope they can be
Say soon! Meager Reason ND.

About this poem:
An anagramic melody...because you made such an incredible impression on me.Oh Summer, Oh Sunshine
I put my feet on the floor and it's cold in here
Look outside, seems sunny and clear
Lay my head against the window, huff out a big breath
The glass got all foggy so I drew a Hyacinth
It was simple and plain - a reminder just the same
That soon summertime will be coming
Slipped on my coat - what's the temp in this place?
Grabbed my socks and some boots after I washed my face
Kicked the radiator, put the kettle on for tea
It's heatin up fast, I warm my hands with the steam
While I try to remember where I last saw my beanie
And I'm praying hard that summer gets here
Oh summer, oh sunshine chase this darkness away
Dry up this rain and lengthen the days
Make all my nights steamy so I don't have to sleep
I ask for only two wishes: a couple of smiles
One for my face and one for my heart
Oh summer, oh sunshine hurry with your mercy today
This tea's no problem-solver all my gear must have holes
Not gettin any warmer, still I'm so cold
This calls for drastic measures, think I'll step out the door
Bring a scarf and my gloves, get the keys out the bowl
I hear bustling outside and I have to decide
Is the hustle because summer is coming?
Step out on the stoop - what can this madness be?
Is he wearin shorts? Is that a string bikini?
Are these people crazy? Or could it be me?
Is it cold inside because I'm so lonely?
I see children at play, in the park there's a heyday
And I'm thinking summer just might be coming
A walk down the street doesn't take much convincing
Barbies are smokin and there's ice cream cone-licking
The succulent fruits are so ripe, fresh and fine
The day is so hot, not a cloud in the sky
And I'm strippin my clothes off as I take it all in
It feels good to know that summer is here
Oh summer, oh sunshine the darkness is gone
You dried up the rain and my days are long
My nights will be steamy and I won't have to sleep
You granted only two wishes: a couple of smiles
One for my face and one for my heart
Oh summer, oh sunshine I thank you for coming!
Look outside, seems sunny and clear

All I got is this bottle of you and a liquor of you
Do you need this I want this can’t touch bare with me

It kills me I can’t do anything anymore not anymore can’t lie
I see ghost through a looking glass
She said did you love me never new it was you
All I got is whispers was it true or was it me
Chorus 1
She’s Got the hottest girl in the world,
Now she’s coming over and i dont know what to do,
now she out of the shower,
And she just got it for free,

Cause I got this feeling? do you do it ? I do it with you,
please don't apologize you know you want this,

Eyes never shut body hurts rough times tears up
When it was the end.

CORINNA
CORINNA
Oh my Corinna
When she makes love to me
Her fingers so gentle
Upon my chest
Awakening feelings in me
Reminding an old man
Of things he's forgot
And times he thought
He never again would see
Oh My Corinna
A woman so dear to me
Not listless but free
When she pleasures me
And takes her needs just from me
And then in awhile
We lie
Both in twine
And the warmth then casts
Loving arms about me
And I offer my heart
On a silver tray
And she gladly takes it from me
Puts it in a locket
To wear near her breast
To keep it safe
And she knows i'm hers
For as long as it beats
Oh my Corinna
A woman so dear to me
Not listless but free
When she pleasures me
And takes her needs just from me...
Oh my Corinna

When she pleasures me
And takes her needs just from me...

I went so far because of no genuine American Christians
So again Iam done
I have all the experience & having been made fun
I must submit as JESUS
Remain alone with our FATHER
It's a death for apostles like us
worth perfect peace
and not all the bother.

About this poem:
Reason I text this: to tell the TRUTH!It's ABOUT what is really going on!
Maybe someone else can identify & perhaps avoid the game-traps;most already know,but I have been desperate for like-minded communications!
FEELING:somewhat relieved to settle all doubts! I hadn't put much more into it,because of all the immaturity & fears from most who use the internet!
My LORDGOD keeps all of me as I try to share HIS LOVE-LIFE everywhere,so I am the more sure of HIS LONGSUFFERING & proving HIS love-life through me-as if I can't stop asking-seeking-knocking at human heart-doors until a child of SHALOM will open & let US in!
