Free minds!

Free minds can’t see, free minds can’t be,
It’s all an impossibility, freedom cannot be,
There is no dictator, there is no creator,
There is no future, there is no past,
There is nothing here to last,
Simple minds create the crimes,
Profess their way, follow what they say,
And what you believe , well, it’s up to you,
But no one cares, because nothing is true,
It can all change in a heartbeat, because
Someone talks from a higher seat,
But be aware, for in this world I see,
Don’t ever say, because you will be,
the guilty party!

No Blame!

I’m like this because of you, I’m like this because you
Never saw it through,
I’m like this because the Winter Sun never shone!

I’m like this because my flowers died and left me
Traumatised,
I’m like this because you were never here, to hold
Me close and quell my fear,

I’m like this because you stayed with me,

I’m like this because you never set me free,

I’m like this because when you were gone,

Along came another one,
Of simple design , gave me the time,
To be me………and now I see,

I’m totally like this because of me!

Space Invaders

When that moment comes, before sleep invades your space,
Just for an instant, you can dictate tomorrow in this place,
The star of this show will be someone you know,
Where you can go, where you reside with nothing to hide,
Tomorrow can be your show, so, what you dictate my friend,
To yourself,
Is how it will be and how it will end!

Thanks Frank and George.

What better way to end your day than to smile and say
‘I did it my way, (thanks Frank)
And when the day has begun, no better way
but to smile and say ‘Here comes the Sun’ (thanks George)

Showing in Cinemas for a limited period!

There’s no script for life! but it seems to me it seems to be,
Lights, camera action all of the time,
The director is YOU, it makes no sense, no reason
Or no rhyme , to fall in line all of the time.
We are not actors in a stage play, we are creators
And we can do it OUR WAY!

Letting Love Lead

Now, the time is come for me to carry on,
What was right then - time to pay the Piper,
Still, I wasn't wrong,
So quickly went that life on a perfectly jagged road--,
Letting love lead the way-,
Just to feel something where there was nothing at all,
Years to build - watching in moments to fall,
Once again, alone,
But still standing tall--,
Letting love lead you betrayed-,

Letting love lead you,
Then love no longer needs you,
What else can you do?
Just follow the sound?-,

So many paths you could have chose,
You chose love and what did you know?
A winner only to lose?,
Or the path you go?--,
Letting love lead astray-,
Now since time - it has come to change,
Without many words here left to say,
But there is you,
And you are still the same--,
Letting love lead-,

Letting love lead me,
Blindly knowing love can deceive me,
What else could it be?
I'll just follow that sound!----

About this poem:
I wrote this 6-20-2022. This is a sad, sentimental song that we've all had a taste of, or perhaps still has a taste in our mouth from yesterday's life. When I wrote this, I wrote it here before placing on paper/ music sheets. So, this is an original first draft without music or rewriting, adding more or subtracting less. Until then...

Imagine

Imagine, your whole world revolves around you literally,
Who feels your pain, you!, who feels your loss, you!, who
Feels but you, this world is your creation, from your imagination,
In tune with life, In tune with you, a song that you make true,
And when it ends and it’s over and done there’s never a
Winner or someone that’s won, start anew, me and you!

The future

In a thousand years, there will be new fears, global warming
lost and gone no warning, new spirits flow new way to go,
and all that is will be lost and gone, we're not right, we're not
wrong, we are the eternal epitome of that age old song, it was I that was
right, and you that were wrong, and then, we are gone.

Another Poem

You said something yesterday, that affects my world today,
What did I say? You say it was nothing, but I feel bad,
I feel sad, you don’t know?, do you care?, and then it begins!
Another day, another mismatch of feelings and emotions
Someone did not catch,........ I did not mean anything, I don’t know
What you want me to say,?.............. Well I don’t want words, I want you to
Pay, it’s a new day, now you will know how I felt, I’ll just be like
You you were to me, and then you will see, how I feel, and then
I’ll be ok, then we can both feel bad and sad and that will make all
The difference!

Final exam!

If you divide the good by the bad do you get the mad? The sad?
If you multiply you and me what would you see?
A host of energy?

If you subtract negativity, then add positivity and all that could be,
Then you know you have passed!
