The WaterfallI am a waterfall , cascading , descending , trickling down
all over your sunkissed shoulders , and a hundred bare thoughts .
Smell me , A delicate fragrance like that of drying cotton linen
perched on the line of an...

Cry of An Eight YearI fear…
I thought I was dear
Why are you giving me this fear?
Your rough rugged hands looming towards my cheeks
This is not like the usual touch of yours
It is something else
Your touch doesn’t make me protective anymore
It makes me shiver
I thought I was dear
Why are you...

Bad Boy Gone GoodYour life is a sandwich with many layers
Your knife slaughtered me as you bewitch my mind with thought-slayers
Coming undone by this bleeding hate-love relationship
You tease me with insults that make me wanna cry, but I'll get a man's toughest grip
I'm a Titanium ship...

as the sun rose in the mornings rain
her body beaten and bloody with no clothes
her precious life went down the drain.
This young girl was such an angel
her feathers ripped from off her wing

"dirty Wings"I fell away into night
He tore at my limbs and my life
He left me laying in a corner
Dying with my shame and horror
My wings were bent and oh so dirty
They only came when they grew hungry
As you leave me here to die,

A Rabbit Wasn'T IncludedWhen I ordered Welsh Rabbit, a rabbit was not included.
The restaurant ripped me off, that was what I concluded.
All that I was served was some cheese on toast.
I soon learned that the chef wasn't a nice host.
I wanted a rabbit and that was what I...

Rough TimesMy husband left this life last year
Just two and a half months later
My sweet brother passed away
My best friend's husband also died
My son-in-law left my daughter
I lost my job without just cause
Two disks in my back folded
Two contractors ripped me off
My oldest brother went to...

Blowing SmokeI must chuckle over the girls who say they don't fart
This is all while boys are competing turning it into an art
Girls feeling embarrassed so they duck off and hide
Boys excited because they ripped one off the loudest so they smile with pride
Sometimes gas comes...

If I Cut the RopeFatal…why is this feeling so fatal…final…
I thought, believed this one would be different
How foolish I was, deceived; I let in a repeat of my own history
A double dip of poison I could not help but indulge in
The side effects, I never minded; just enjoyed having...

ChristopherYou came to my door
And right from the start
You lied and you cheated
- A perfected art
You told all your stories
Of troubles and woes
Were building a web
For those did not know
You where good with your tales
Of things you could do
You built up a trust
Of people to...

He neglected to tell me that and my wife became so furious that I got belted.
The horse that I bought won every time, he never lost a race.
The seller ripped...
