Keep Our Ghosts At Bay
I feel your pain like it was mine
Having an ability to see your soul
If you hurt and can't speak
Sit here with me for I am fluent
in silence
And if your ghosts from the past 
leave you sleepless then know that
I will be there to watch over...

Premium Member A Promise I Can'T Keep
The sun was setting with a breeze
Seductively sliding behind the trees
Watching his descent
Was quite the event
I witnessed a day to night striptease

He left me with the biggest grin
I must admit with some chagrin
Watching as he changed 
Glances were exchanged
I didn't mean to embarrass him

I just...

Premium Member Knowin How To Keep Em
Oh don't think that I ain't seein'
As you roll those purty eyes,'
And my man stands there a gawkin'
Like he'd won some sort of prize.

My ma taught me how to keep em
And to cut you down to size.
For there ain't no man worth havin'
Can resist my...

Premium Member Keep
sun shadows through my hair 
in my heart you drift, before sleep
daylight dreams dancing everywhere
heart-prints glide, almost there
you are a dream i wish to keep

stars upon my pillow
in my heart you drift, before sleep
wishes collect on the window
my thoughts whispering low
you are a dream i...

Premium Member Keep It Real:If I Could Cry
if i maurice yvonne could cry
i’d spread my tears
eternal over your 
( say it, dare to be bold)
naked body
(then she could taste your pain)

but i can’t shed tears anymore
(tell her why)
(you need her to know)
(no i can't she'll leave me)
(get out of my head)
my mind beats...

Just Keep Holding On
Just keep holding on

I know to you, the world doesn't feel right
I know, you gave up, you gave up the fight
I know, to you, the world is your enemy
I know, you feel, you feel you'll never be free

Chorus

So Just keep holding on...
the nights almost over...
soon...

Premium Member Keep Your Hand On My Shoulder
Let me not say hurtful things,
Or shameful actions do.
Let my words not sow deceit,
And thus bring shame to You.

Let my words bring only peace,
And my actions too;
That I may walk with head held high,
And only friends accrue;

For there are those who look for faults,
And point...

Dreams Will Keep
Photo by Rhonda Pearson Smith



Thickening fog hung beneath the willow tree
consumes dreams of your lost poetry.
From sandalwood-scented sleep,  
I kiss you and weep.      
Love songs will
keep,
lustrous still.
Silver lyrics creep         
to gold...

God truly loves man
He has for us  a great  plan
You're very special to Him
He loves  us all way
Remember Lord died for us
Jesus did and that's so true

God created man
Earth and the whole universe
Our God is an awesome God
He loves you...

Another Memory To Keep-First May Contest
May the first is traditionally the beginning of Spring
St Joseph is their patron saint this day to be 
the  only free day when no workers  joined
the throng of people shuffling looking already tired
to wherever they work, eyes down still shut tight
Make them work...

Premium Member You Keep on Moving
I wanted to be your Captain America,
but I feel like the remorseful 'Joker,'
who has lost his 'Harley Quinn.'

Do you recall our first song,
how I strummed guitar strings to
reflect our romantic symphonies,
but now all I hear are unfinished lyrics.
The flowers we planted now wilt,
as you left...

Keep Your Friends Your Friends
Gradually life became about survival 
suddenly my friends became my rivals
don’t see them now, think they’re my enemies?
That they'll never be, they’re treasured memories.

Would I go back and alter?
Maybe small altercations 
but feel forever blessed to 
have had friends so amazing. 

And though some did...

Premium Member I Keep Coming Back
You kill me  
And I come back.

You kill me again
And I come back again

I don't know Why.

Am I the problem?
Am I the cause?
Am I the affliction,
the recurring pain?

You kill me  
And I come back.

You kill me again
And I come back again

The earth rumbles,
Crumbles,
Sending...
