Germaine Elliott Poem
My head is twisted and
confused, there are paths to
ignore and paths to choose.
I sit within and contemplate,
for I cannot go back on my
chosen fate.
Some I must run and others I
crawl, a few I must pause,
before I trip and fall.
I cannot close my eyes in fear,
only with my heart can I hear.
I move to the left and look to
the right, my mind is a maze
with no end in sight.
I can't be too hasty and I can't
be too slow, each step is a
choice, my rhythm and flow.
I shan't forget my biggest
hurdle, each path has its own
confusing riddle.
Whichever I choose to lead or
ignore, affects myself and those
in my core.
There is only one beginning, so I
can't go astray, but the end is
limitless and so I must pray.
I pray for guidance and for
faith, I pray I keep my strength
and wait.
I pray I choose the right path
for me, and hope its best for all
to see.
I pray for choices I've already
made, I pray for decisions I've
yet to say.
I pray to the heavens that the
life I live, is a blazing path of
love to give.

Germaine Elliott Poem
"i can see the truth, in pain's honest form
a death rejoiced, a life unknown."
when at times, my despair grows high
i keep with me, an honest nights cry
when darkness closes, and the night is long
i remember the sun, and keep my faith strong
a new day has come, with its own peace of mind
and then i can believe, love isn't that hard to find
i look around and see, the rays of a brand new day
shining brightly all around me, a hope for me to say:
"i can see the peace, in truth's honest form
a life rejoiced, a love reborn."

Germaine Elliott Poem
tears are burning, my heart is breaking
sadness shows all, it knows no bounds.
mindless fury, ignites in your hand
it scares the soul, it scars the mind.
fear love pain and grief
all mixed up within.
my love tries to override
yet the pain is all consuming.
fear and grief come hand in hand
stripping away all of my courage.
how to take the the love back
and throw away the pain.
how to take the fear and grief
replace them with happiness.
its said time heals all wounds
yet love heals them faster.
i love with all my heart
i hurt with all my soul.
i'm afraid the hurt wont go
scared the love wont come back

Time and time
And time again
My hearts been
Hurt and hard
To mend
Keep me in

Take my pain
To ease away...

Germaine Elliott Poem
there is a storm deep in me
skies turn dark within my mind
a raging tsunami begging to be free
clouds obscure the truth to find
tidal waves crashing forcibly
lightning strikes and i am blind
battering my body for all to see
thunder tramples my heart to grind
pain lashes out to ignore my plea
as winds howl and i am resigned
to my fate,
my life,
my time.

Germaine Elliott Poem
wandering blindly in the daylight, aimlessly shifting in the paths of life
a film of gray shielding the truth of the bleakness in my soul
having no thought to where i was going or why,
thinking there was no better life, unable to see the beauty of a touch.
i didnt believe in the color of a single kiss, couldnt imagine i deserved anything more.
then there was you...
you flustered me beyond my control, colors burst to life in my eyes
a single glance from you created a flutter in my once still heart
nervous and unsure, excited and anxious, you swept me off my feet
carried my body, heart, mind, and soul onto a new path.
In an instant i could see flames of color collide together,
enhancing, rejuvenating, claiming
created from a single kiss, just 30 seconds of my time
changed my life forever

Germaine Elliott Poem
I'm drifting away on this plane of despair
No fighting this time as I've no breath to spare.
Twirl my fingers along the waters glass surface
Watch my reflection twist and turn with an unknown purpose.
Contemplate the depths of the deep waters pool
Considering all the ways I have been played the fool.
Mindful of the waves crashing over my prone form
There's no escape from the tormenting storm.
Battered and bruised I lay buried upon the edge
No more, no less, I'm done, I pledge.
There's an end in sight under the waters current
Slip my body away into the raging turrent.

Germaine Elliott Poem
The whole Truth and nothing but the Truth
The jokes on you, I was fine
Just keep it real, that's my line
Little did u know
It's part of my flow
From this game I do resign.
Every word from my pink lips
There Were no mistaken slips
I never once felt love
No wish from God above
I played you with all my tips
hate the player hate the game
No matter it's all the same
The one biggest lie
I'm sure u will cry
You've only yourself to blame

Germaine Elliott Poem
My words are my own
Don't take them from me
Listen with your heart
Perhaps u will see...
When I say three words
Don't claim its a lie
If you hear the truth
Believe in it, just try...
Im hurting from this
My heart ripped in two
Theres no room for tears
My soul torn anew...
Every line of filth
I hear from your tone
Breaks me down inside
Crushed, and alone...

Germaine Elliott Poem
SUDDENLY...
by: Germaine Pasley
Just a kiss just a touch
Just a little too much
Keep my love keep my heart
Keep my mind for a start
Hold me close hold me tight
Hold me through the night
Love me now love me free
Love me nice and see
How my love can suddenly
Take a chance and be
There's a place there's a time
There's a beauty in our rhyme
When I'm low when I'm sad
When I'm lost or feeling mad
You give me hope give me bliss
Give me one tender kiss
And I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm claimed all around
Love me now love me free
Love me nice and see
How my love can suddenly
Take a chance and be
Take a chance and be
Suddenly...
REPLY TO LOVE...
by: Dan Kearley
I'll take your kiss
With your sweet touch
I could never get enough
With all your love in your sweet heart
Has filled my mind right from the start
I'll hold you close, and tender tight
With flaming passion all thru the night
My love for you now will always be
Believe in me, and you will see
How our love will suddenly
Take a chance and be...
With me
Any place or anytime
Our rhymes beauty will intertwine
When your sad or feeling low
Or just lost with no where to go
I give you hope with a tender kiss
Filled with passion, and with bliss
If your ever lost you will be found
For my love for you it knows no bounds
My love for you now will always be
Believe in me, and you will see
How our love will suddenly
Take a chance and be
With me...
