Premium Member Waiting To Slip Away
The mysterious stranger could wait no more
He grew more impatient as he paced the floor  
People  always pleaded for more time
But those pleas  were usually denied

 The man whose soul he'd come to take
 Grew paler and began to shake
 He ...

Slip Away
Slip away …


Will you slip away to the dark side,
Will you worship money and power too,
Do you see any wrong on the inside,
The moral code of you .

Do you really think you are better,
All equal under God,
Just a little deceitful to yourself,
Do you get the...

I let it slip away.
	Regretful till this day,
	I kept your love at bay
	and let it slip away.

I had your undying love and true devotion,
passionate romance in arduous motion.
I was so careless with my own emotion
	…I let it slip away

I pushed you away at each chance
choosing...

Don'T Let the Years Slip Away
Don’t let the years slip away

Written By Dean Masciarelli

September 16, 2010 (6:31pm)


Don’t let the 
years slip away 

From you

So that you can
enjoy 
every single day

Because they 
will 
pass you by

Faster then you 
can blink an eye

And they will
gradually 
sneak up on you

Faster then you 
may...

You’ve found the one you were looking for
Never let her slip away

When true love comes knocking at your door

I Let It Slip Away 

I let it slip away, my freedom said goodbye, 
as I sat in a cell of abuse pain and neglect; 
life is blasé I can’t conger up a why. 

You were a tyrant and I wanted to die,
as I start...

Premium Member When Memories Slip Away
When memories slip away
when they sink into an 
endless sunset
when minutes swiftly sift
through the hourglass of time…

…hold me tenderly, hold me close
before my story ends
remember the moments 
we have together 
dreams that time transcends. 

I feel so vulnerable
so powerless and alone
my words have become elusive
emotions...

I let it slip away . . .
a beautiful beautiful day.

I’d looked out my window and seen
blue sky and grass so green.

Then back in bed I lay
as I slept the morning away.

At last I awoke but I had
my chores!  I felt so bad.

Why in...

Heroes Slip Away
How soon the heroes daughters and sons
  lost in the morning shadow run
     of a distant and clouded sun;
all the dreams that survive
  are mere nightmares still alive
    of what we once contrived
for America and freedom...

         Land, oh land give forth of thee
         In this darkness, barren and cold,

Premium Member I Let It Slip Away

I let it slip away…. But can I ever do it?
One long year has passed since I last saw her,
With her smiling face and sparkling eyes.
Memories haunt me of the days we were together, 
When she whispered love’s veiled message,
With haunting echoes faintly singing.

My world...

Premium Member I Let It Slip Away
I let it slip away.
With every fleeting day,
The countdown ticks,
and the woodworm picks.
 
I let it slip away.
We deplete into decay.
A heartbreak needs a fix.
Sticky roll pops claim extra licks.

I let it slip away.
Vowed to repay them that day.
I value how you play your tricks.
Yet, what...
