When Darkest Of Blues Will Not Stop Pounding

Standing atop this high cliff, clouds floating on by
Watching last sunset, red-tint paint splashing blue sky
Now finding life, has stooped to beat me up again
Despite my deep courage, embraced through thick and thin
No honor felt in this lost...

Premium Member Pounding Hearts
Hearts pounding in our chests;
Watching each other get undressed.
Anticipating what comes next;
This night, we are surely blessed.

Watching each other get undressed;
A fantasy come true.
This night, we are surely blessed;
With feelings we never knew.

A fantasy come true,
In the shadows of the night;
With feelings we never knew,
All...

The Intense Pounding In the Brain of My Emotions
my emotions are caught up
somewhere between here and there
your real intentions have been brought up
somewhere between fear and scare

sadness and disappointment drips off
the definition of unexpected
i resisted the temptation of greater queens 
because i thought you were the greatest

my emotions are caught up 
somewhere between...

'wind is pounding in my heart'

It tears across the steppes and plain, it guides my mind and eases pain
Whithin the yurt, upon the road, it whets my mind; eases the loads
I've rode it's Breast ten thousand times,' with banner high the yak tails nine
Its of...

Wow come over here
Check out this black beauty
Grandpa used to have one just like it
It sat on the desk in his study
In fact I was supposed to study in his study
In reality I never did get much done

Transported back in time
What a remarkable piece of...

Under This Pounding Rain
Angry unseen tears pelting me in the darkness,

Cold falling droplets splattered and screaming their loneliness,

Soaking my clothes in clear clinging abandonment,

First striking at me yet now embraced by them,

My body more than willing to warm their chill,

Knowing as a whole they could swiftly drown me,

Still...

We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall
We're pounding on the walls to watch the cities fall

The  woman married at a young age
to the eldest son of a farmer-
my maternal uncle and neighbor.

Usually, she woke up early at the crow's caw
and swept the dirt floor of the house with a broom
often wiping it with water and a nura ( wet...

Heart Laces
Your starting to undo my heart laces again
All of the string is coming undone again.

You pulled at the lace and my heart fluttered away
like a butterfly and then my heart started to race

My heart started pounding like a drum,
my pulse was racing, like it had...

Fear In the Moonlight
The night is very dark with a slight summer breeze,
A shimmer of moon peeking through the branches of trees.
I hear another’s footsteps in the distance from behind,
Hopefully the owner is a person that’s very kind.
As I continue to walk faster, a pounding in my heart,
The...
