Miner's Soul

Can anyone yet say
When fair winds will again play
Along the hills of my blue West Virginia?

In better of times
Coal flowed rich from the mines
My son you just had to have been there

But along '59
Big machines rolled online
And the young wives of miners saw worry

Beginning of the end?
No they could not pretend
Their dreams become a cold coal dust slurry

Twas mighty colliers hands
That did build up this land
Till their seasons bled through gray December

And when it's my time
Bury me deep in a coal mine
So my West Virginia miner's soul will remember

Stay Home

Stay home
Don't look for fight
Stay home
Make it alright

Stay home
Jam when daylight
Stay home
Chill the night

across the universe - ballad of ballads

across the universe, again,
all by myself, almost unreal,
angels apologize, at my most beautiful,
atmosphere;
barely breathing, better than me,
beyond the call, blurry,
bring me to life, broken,
burning in the skies;
castle of glass, chances, changes,
chariot, chase this light,
clouds, collide,
come a little closer;
day after day, deep inside of you,
disconnected, do you remember,
dreaming with a broken heart, driven under,
drops of Jupiter;
electrical storm, empty spaces,
end of the world, everything burns,
eyes open;
fade into me, fall to pieces, far far away,
feels like tonight, first day of my life,
follow you, follow me, for reasons unknown,
forgiven, not forgotten;
get to you, give me a sign,
go the distance, going home tonight,
goodbye for now,
goodbye to love;
heart of stone, heavy in your arms,
helpless when she smiles,
here and now, here with me,
here, there, and everywhere,
hold my hand, how you remind me,
hymn to her;
I belong to her, I finally found someone,
I love you, I miss you, I need you,
I will be here for you, I will come to you,
I will follow you into the dark,
if I could turn back time,
if wishes came true, if you only knew,
in a little while, in your eyes,
it ends tonight;
just between you and me,
just like heaven, just say yes,
kiss;
last to know, leave out all the rest,
let her go, let me kiss you,
life goes on, lightning crashes,
listen to your heart, losing you,
lost in paradise, louder than words,
love letter;
making love out of nothing at all,
maps, marooned, maybe tomorrow,
minute by minute, misunderstood,
my immortal, my sacrifice,
my world;
never surrender, never tear us apart,
no expectations, nothing to lose,
now and forever;
one step up, only in dreams,
open your eyes, other side of the world,
over you;
paint my love, patience, perfect,
pieces, please forgive me,
powerless, promises, quicksand,
quietly;
reach for the sky, read my mind,
real love, receive, rescue me,
return to innocence, right here waiting,
road to our dream, rooftops,
running to a standstill;
said it all, sail to the Moon,
same mistake, save me, save you,
say hello, sea of love, second chance,
secretly, send her my love,
she talks to angels, signals over the air,
silver and cold, sleepless nights,
slowly slipping away, so far away,
some say, someday, something more,
somewhere only we know,
speechless, starlight, still in love with you,
stillness of my heart, surrender to me,
sweetest thing;
take a picture, take me away,
through glass, time for miracles,
to be with you, to the end, true love waits,
try again;
unconditionally, under the bridge,
under the Milky Way,
undiscovered;
waiting for a girl like you, we can last forever,
when I look to the sky,
when love and hate collide,
when the stars go blue,
when you close your eyes,
where are we now, where are you going,
wish you were here,
with a smile, with arms wide open,
within me;
you and I, you and me,
you and your heart,
you found me, your guardian angel,
your love.

This is a "ballad" poem, which I created using actual names of songs categorized under "ballads", and from a to z, with a couple letters missing. . . Someone ought to write a love song that starts with x or z.

Dating site

Dating site ...
You make us be together
Eventhough some of us don' t bother
We laugh and fall in love because of you
But some of us can't make it through

Dating site ....
Some of us stay in you forever
But they don't even bother
They live in you day by day
They can't live without you, that's what they say

Dating site .....
Life will be empty without your site
Eventhough they always have cat fight
They think they are so cool
But the mods think they are just a bunch of fool

Russian warship,, go..

Somehow history got lost in translation, that was then and this is now, we have Iphones, your phones and my phones,we have facebook, youtube, mytube, redtube, twitter, ,, wow, imagine we tweet to each other?,, all rocking robins, its like we are hypnotized for some reason, and news channels bring the news, about people dying fighting for their lives, and the bully doing the killing is just being watched, really, he threatens nuclear war, and the world bites, let him do what he wants as long as it's not us, we cant survive world war three,, we have to let him be!!!!!!
And the stupidity of it all, he will do it anyway, no matter what we do or say, its time to stop it, take a stand, draw a line in the sand, stand together united and free, its him or its me!! or you,,, or you too.
Tyranny will not be defeated by weak hearts, our fear gives it strength, our resolve never to submit kills it, why not die in the pursuit of freedom than in the chains of CAPTIVITY?
In the words of those UKRAINIAN soldiers,, Russian Warship,,,, GO f*ck YOURSELVES!

WONDERING!

And I wonder, if love songs didn't make you sad, and life didn't make you mad, if life was perfect how would you be?
And I wonder, if tomorrow was the end of it all, how would you be? what would you do? Its all a question of love and life, oh yes, it is, what would we miss, without you, without me, nothing to see.
And I wonder, where we can go from here?, tell me where?
I just wonder, from here? to there? to where?
Just wondering!

Loving all!

The simplicity of love , can be, lost in diversity,, love can't sustain the reality, of life,,,love is benign, the idea,, show it anything it cant understand and it dies, love is fickle, love is nothing, love is real,, love is love,,, its what we feel., right or wrong,,

Another one of those questions one's!

Aint it hard to be YOU, aint it soo hard? If I asked you to write one line on a card, explain who you are? how would you take it? how far? One line to quantify you?, Would it be?, I'm me and I'm glad that I'm not you? Or, I wish I was YOU, thats what I want to be!,,Wow, that could be true, depending on what you see?
decisions you make, paths you take, life will be ultimately lead you where you have to be! So?,,,,,,,,, do you want to be you?,,,,,,,,,, or do you want to be me?

Change

Change begins with understanding, not to be afraid OF, and as life goes on, and things change, its LOVE, that keeps us together, when the unexpected happens and life becomes something new, we can walk down this road TOGETHER, IF we lOVE, its forever!
It's only new for today, then suddenly it's yesterday, and today is all we can see, but tomorrow, well, tomorrow is as real as it will be..

How do you see it?

Life changes you from the start, it opens your mind and closes your heart, you start out with love, innocent and true, then life, slowly eradicates you, you become aware, of whats right and what's fair, you want to be there,and you really care, then, you get confused, when you have been used, so now you retract, its the ultimate act, it leaves you lost,, life is not free, it has a cost, so, now do you see?. ,, no one loves you more than me.
