Premium Member Absolute Truth: How Can it Be?
Absolute truth, both mystery… and paradox. 
“You make me wonder if you exist or not?”

The Greeks glimpsed you in circles and squares,
The medievals revered you in scriptures and prayers,
The moderns doubted you in so many facts and proofs.

Absolute truth 
     your...

HELLO! … Hello … hello (hello … hello …)
OUT THERE! … Out There … out there … (out there … )

Silence---deep, dark, impenetrable---washes over me

My gaze takes in the vast sweep of starlight on a clear night
Knowing all of that it is but a mere...

Covid 19 What Can It Mean
Covid 19 what can it mean....
sweeping the World with a vengeance it seems...
A call to love one another caused by extremes....

Will we all come together to answer the Call...
bypassing deep divisions among us all...
refusing to let one another fall...

The Truth of the people is now...

How Can It Be
How can it be
That you can feel so empty
And yet so full of emotions
At the same time

How can it be
That every option seems a bad one
Nothing in the world seems right
I want to fix everything
And yet I have no motivation

How can it be
That it is...

How Bad Can It Be
How bad can it be?
The earth is dying. 
Animals are crying. 
Their homes being taken from them.
But how bad can it be?
Can’t go outside because it’s to smoky but 
How bad can it be?
Wondering what’s going to kill us first, 
War or what we have...

Can It
Why do I chase the atom?
when the universe has always been mine.
Can love evolve from red giant
into a galaxy?
Dust and stone
become skin and bone,
born; fall and rise again.


I love the black holes
of your eyes
for they radiate
much more light 
than they could ever take.
White hot coals...

What I See Can It Really Be.
Why does everything I do always have a consequence that leads me back to you,
I got to see it through and be true,
I cant deal with this,
Its all a massive miss of a passive diss,
A glitch that’s all it is,
When ever i see your face...

Can It Be True?
Can it be true?
That you are mine for all time
Can it be real?
That I'm able to call you mine
Is it the truth?
That you will never leave me alone
Can it be true?
The way you put me in a zone
Can it be real?
The way you tell me...

Can It Be
Can it happen this very day;
That a thin ray of mercy from the heavens,
Hits towards my dark hideout,
And shines all the way?

And,
Can it be that I am saved;
From the wrath of man,
That tosses,this,my life,to and fro;
Like rejected sacrifice?

And,
Can it come to pass,
That the living hope...

that i sit here all alone
here in this house

How Can It Be?
way back in the day
a very wise woman said 
run! don't walk away

this is a new type
of insanity not seen
in our family

but we didn't heed
now it has begun to grieve
those here in the path

is this how you test
the supposed love of those 
strangling in your...

Can It Be Love?
Can you love someone
you have never seen.
Only to lose them but now wonder
what could have been.

Can you say you love someone
who you havn't talk to in years.
And now that you might have a chance
Hesitate because of your fears.

Can you say you love someone
when you tore...

Can It Be Named As Love
ASK A QUESTION TO THYSELF
WHAT IS LOVE?
SOME WOULD SAY, A SYMBOL OF DOVE.
SOME WOULD SAY, IT CAN'T BE EXPRESSED;
WHILE SOME WOULD SAY IT MAKES THE PEOPLE DEPRESSED.
SOME WOULD SAY, IT IS A FEELING APART FROM OUR LIVES;
AND SOME WOULD SAY WE DO IT TO OUR...

How Can It Be Love In A Place They Call Cyberspace

How can it be real love in a place they call cyberspace
Not to be able to lace each other’s fingers an embrace
Not to be able to feel the warmth race of each other’s deepened passion

Can It Be That This Rose
can it be that this rose
that wilted then, now grows?
ah, it’s just a dreary dream
of youth we all have deemed
a cruel lot besides
being a dream that dies.
it is only a rose then 
that’s shorn
of rose’s scent
before it's grown....
