Best Song Lost Poems
Would you like to dance with me, and feel my arms around your waist?
Maybe our lips could brush together, to give each other a little taste.
Let us always remember this song as we the others around us far behind.
Now we can move amongst the stars above, no worries of space and time.
As I gaze into your eyes, I get lost in your stare.
Finding myself gasping for breath, I seem lost of air.
The warmth of your embrace makes me lightheaded on this night.
That smile which warms my heart, you are such a beautiful sight.
Here there is no deception, no pain, or reason to cry.
I wish you could see yourself looking through my eyes.
The first dance is almost over as the melody soon will end.
Yes this song may soon be over, as the first of many now begins.
Your gaze near keeps me steady as I drink in the smell of your perfume.
Drunk with so many emotions, my senses opened up like flowers in bloom.
No, more wishful thinking as you’re standing with me here.
I’ll always have this feeling; it will be with me all my years.
Let’s keep all the emotions overflowing, and hold them deep inside.
We can explore all the thoughts we have for each other, sharing this journey we call life.
A passion that won’t die, with this energy never to end.
A little message I had to let you know, one I knew I had to send.
Lord, a storm is raging- in our mist
Our nation suffers- with its twists
I know you see these roots of evil, don’t you?
We spend our time- getting ahead
We’ve lost sight- of the blood you shed
With hope we raise our voice with Hallelujahs
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
There are children hungry- in our streets
The population- ignores the weak
But you send your angels in their mist, now don’t you
There are murders committed -in our land
It’s time for us- to take a stand
Please hear our pleas in these broken Hallelujahs
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Reparations needed- for wicked deeds
Twas with sinful lust- evil bare its seeds
We need cleansing from immorality, please won’t you?
As we bend our knees- and bow our heads
We lay our plight- at your feet instead
Our prayers not lost within our Hallelujahs
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
The signs that you -are coming soon
Have been preached for years- with sudden doom
But with loving hands you’ll save your children, won’t you.
You’ll pluck your flowers from the weeds
Salvation winning over sinful deeds
With our faith we raise our voices in Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
With humbled heart and meek attitude
We come to you, with our gratitude
And raise our voice with joyful Hallelujahs
Salvation bought with your blood depleted
Victory was won with death defeated
Your brides await the bridegroom, Hallelujah!!
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Written for a Members Contest to write a lyric to the tune of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah”
I decided to keep the Hallelujah’s in place because I think we need to hear more “Hallelujahs” in our world today.
*No infringement intended on Leonard Cohen’s original verses of “Hallelujah”.
Hard to tell the difference,
Between the truth and the lies these days.
The lines are all gone between the right and the wrong,
But I'm tellin' you, somebody got to pay!
Did you ever get the feelin',
Like they're cookin' up some kind of master plan?
The devil's in the details, in their tone of voice,
And I'm tellin' you, in their sleight of hand!
Can't believe those nice guys been tellin' us lies,
And callin' it the truth!
We've gone too far to get back, to where we got off the track
And we got lost in their view.
But it won't be too long 'til the end of the song,,
But will we ever change our tune?
'Cause it's played and it's played,
Now it's startin' to fade all the colors in the room.
And I say "Woah, Lord, I feel it comin' soon"
And I say "Woah, yeah, I hope you're makin' me some room!"
Now they say we're fighting terror,
Hell, that's a fight I'd like to see!
We'll stumble and fall, reduced to a crawl,
We'll be unable to proceed!
Sift through the pieces, for rhyme or for reason,
For some sense of it all.
It's there, I swear, in the madness we share,
But, you know, I never heard it fall.
Can't believe those nice guys been spoon-feedin' us lies,
Coated in the truth!
We've gone too far to get back, to where we got off the track,
And we got lost in their view.
But it won't be too long 'til the end of the song,
But will we ever change our tune?
'Cause it's played and it's played,
Now it's startin' to fade all the colors in the room.
And I say "Woah, Lord, I feel it comin' soon"
And I say "Woah, yeah, I hope you're makin' me some room!"
Hard to tell the difference between the truth and the lies these days.......

Dialog of 2 poets:
----------------------------------------
1. Lonely Soul
-----------------------------------
Between heaven and earth,
between summer and winter,
Lonely Soul rushed,
rustling her wings.
Up to the stars,
again downward
from eave to eave,
from window to window
and again, she is in flight.
The fires burn somewhere;
somewhere music and laughter,
someone’s joyful days
dazzling success and good luck.
Lonely Soul
has lost the way between the stars
in her long searches, all wet with tears.
Again, she hurries,
there is neither a map nor way.
But she should SEARCH
and FIND, sometime!
Where? Who? And why?
She is my own soul,
which searches for my lost son.
Dina Televitskaya
2. Sing, Wounded Soul!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I cannot hold your cries,
they slip through my fingers.
I cannot take away your pain,
it lies so far beyond my reach.
I cannot dig out your sorrow,
its roots are too deep.
I cannot chase away your fears,
they hide and creep out later.
I can only tell you, you are loved.
So, sing, wounded soul,
your tears do not fall into emptiness.
James Dalton Byrd (American poet)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.Yes, I will sing again!
-----------------------------------
Yes, I will sing again!
Thanks for your advice, O my Friend!
A song is a fine thing,
You’re right: it is not the end!
Hear? I already sing
about the kisses of a rain,
about green-eyed Spring,
which gives the lilacs hope again.
I sing about your kindness and
About force of friendship,
About meeting with you, my Friend
Sometime, on poetic ship.
---------------------------------------
Dina Televitskaya
I’ve lost family, my friends vanished, and love was disillusioned. I fail to remember when I lost myself that is why I carry on with my mouth taped, hands hammered down to this splintered chair, legs tide down like a criminal that I am, before I let you know what you don’t see and mislay you as well.
The mind of the lost, is nowhere inside.
Dreams of this twisted third eye.
Torturing images, no martyr could bear.
It's the craziness that evokes this primal fear.
Crazy in madness, a house of black cards.
A sand storm of terror, that pump the blood hard.
Fooled in this game, there is no win.
Welcome those feelings and let it all in.
How are you feeling? It's only inside.
How are you feeling? Is it burning your eyes?
How are you feeling? Lost and so blind.
How does it feel? In Reality of mind.
Chaotic is breathing, you feel yourself fall.
Slip from the grip of your reality's wall.
Awake in a nightmare, shedding red tears
Praying for sanity that no one will hear
Flesh is cold and dampened with sweat
your eyes in the demon are all that you fret.
Grasping at strings you pray that you'll live
The pay for you penance, one soul to give.
How are you feeling? It's only inside.
How are you feeling? Is it burning your eyes?
How are you feeling? Lost and so blind.
How does it feel? In Reality of mind.
I can't always tell you what I see,
Or what you'll have in this life.
But honey please believe me,
I'm striving to show you somehow.
I'm begging Forever to hold you,
And I'm pleading time to stand still.
And if all the world needs to disappear,
Then all will be done by my will.
I've seen Heaven and Hell join forces.
I've wished on the stars in your eyes.
If ever I think that I've lost sight,
Well you're there to help guide back my mind.
And I can't fight the tears that keep coming
When I fall through the darkness in light.
And when I'm lost in lines and verses,
You know I'll find hope through life.
I can't always tell you tomorrow,
But there's a reason that I'm here tonight.
I'm not one for superstition; I keep looking for truth in this life,
But still I wish on the stars in your eyes.
And I can't fight the tears that keep coming
When I fall through the darkness in light.
And when I'm lost in lines and verses,
You know I'll find hope through life.
Yeah you know I'll find hope through life.
Yes I know that I'll find hope through life.
I'm sitting here with nothing to do
but occupy my mind with strange, disturbing thoughts;
Oh such strange, disturbing thoughts.
It often happens that my thoughts overtake me and
I get lost in the mazes that they have wrought;
Have tunelled through my brain day by day.
There's a Mad Monkey in my head
Holding a remote control
he's taken over all my mind
Now he's after my broken soul.
Because I'm siiting here with nothing to do
but occupy my mind with strange, disturbing thoughts;
Yes, such strange, disturbing thoughts.
It often happens that my thoughts overtake me and
I get lost in the mazes that they have wrought,
have tunneled through my brain day by day.
There's a Mad Monkey in my head
holding a remote control.
He's taken over all my mind and
Now he's after my broken soul
And I'm STILL sitting here with nothing to do....
Once again I'm here to testify
Beg your God to bless my life!
Senior citizens point me out as the devils advocate
So extravagant, A prisoner of my own arrogance
Passed a black rose and saw Satan blush
Harrassed so he chose hating a passionate rush
Satisfaction of seeing angels and demons lust
A mixture of culture
Draining elixir, like a blood thirsty vulture
From the bottomless pitts they've cursed this structure
And now I'm slipping into darkness
And I can't sleep
Pleasant dreams were promises
But I've fallen to deep
Now I'm just a lost soul slipping into darkness
Beat every factor but death
The secrets that time won't tell
The shadows and spirits that greed won't sell
Bless the date of my mothers final contraction
Eager thoughts of an innocents gurls erections
Knocked down the door
And told her to
"Close your eyes and spread your legs for your own protection"
You gone take this and with no objections
And if I ever find you
I won't bother to creep up behind you
Splice your tongue, make you remember my mom
Pass the memories around
Let em know you took advantage of a defenseless woman
And left her in the lost and found!
And now i'm slippin into darkness
And I can't sleep, I've fallen so deep
That now I'm slipping into darkness
Flourishing Love
Though I thought I wouldn't be able to love,for i have loved and lost.But you,how did you fill that hole that resounds inside of me? Can't I even think of anything else then what i have lost look at what i have gain so beautifully.This love in which is in both of us this love which resounds over and over again in my heart.How do love know how does it build until it is certain I am in love because I found you.You are now all I think about your everything I want.I no longer hurt myself I no longer feel dead,I am once again alive.There is love between us there is love where there shouldn't be for I thought I had lost all meaning to feel for love.But here it is and I hope it stay forever until I die or at least until we fall in love more with each other or for someone else.This beauty pure love shall grow hall be our harmony and we will sing to it forever even if i road shall split this shall be our song our song of love.Our flourishing our pure our our love is perfect.
If nothing good can last
Then nothing can ever be so good again
We use to say “the day doesn’t end until the night ends
Well I’m caught in this perpetual darkness
With sleepless days and misunderstandings
And dreams that come with eyes wide awake
Take it for what you will take it all so well
Did you laugh when it fell
Like a crash within a flash you were gone
Take it for granted, take it for what you will
Will this medicine put me to sleep or will I weep
Loud cries and dying feelings lie within a broken heart a broken soul
Carved out with memories of you
All reincarnated within simple tears pooled on a lonely pillow as I lie alone
I couldn’t let go, every time I seen you I’m sure I started to glow
With a red so bright and hopes in eyes that wish only not to cry
With tears failing to come replaced with burning eyes
I still remember, I still remember you
I live the events over and over again
Some have been through war
Battles lost and won
Laughs had, bad times filled with my bads
But few have lost it, few have lost the thing that means the most
Few have watched it blaze so bright, a testament, a guiding light
Now only a flicker of a candle with fleeting stray light
Off in the distance to make us remember
I’m crawling back there now, to a beautiful somewhere
I’ll wait there through winter’s bitter cold
And watch as the days grow old
I’ll live in a memory that won’t die
Never forget my old ties
One day we’ll all be back again and relive days of old
As the tears fall each one matching a passing year
I’ll wait for a life time so I can say it one last time before I die
And hear it fall upon your ears
The candle will flicker and dim to a dull red
Hope that I heard what you said
And then awaken deaf ears
Again it’s said I love you my dear
From the middle of a dream,
I woke to find
A light bulb burning in my mind
The answers were there that I’d been searching for
And I knew that tomorrow would be just fine
Tomorrow would be just fine
And now since I woke,
I stare at the mirror
The revelation comes flashing back,
But it’s foggy and not so clear
I try to do rewind and playback to find,
the revelation, hidden in my mind
There was a certain conversation,
about saving my salvation
But the application,
got lost in the translation of my mind
Maybe I should try some meditation,
to bring back the revelation
Because the restoration of my own salvation
is hanging on the line
hmmmm- damn what was the revelation
Yes, my world is split in two
One on the left and one on the right
And I’m straddling both sides, like a 3-legged fool
Life and exaltation are what I’m tryin’ to fix
But the only thing I find,
The resurrection of the revelation,
is taking it’s sweet time
There was a certain conversation,
about saving my salvation
But the application,
got lost in the translation of my mind
Maybe I should try some meditation,
to bring back the revelation
Because the restoration of my own salvation
is hanging on the line
hmmmm- damn what was the revelation
Well, the duration of my day,
will not be spent in any exciting way
But instead in a quiet desperation,
of the subliminal exploration
In hope and anticipation, that through divine inspiration
I’ll receive instructions on how to remember,
The revelation
There was a certain conversation,
About saving my salvation
I guess I’ll send an invitaion,
For another revelation
Cuz it’s my own salvation,
That’s hanging on the line
It’s hanging on the line
As I sit here I wonder why,
Why, My Lost Love
Why couldn't it have worked
Why My Love
We each knew our Love for each other
But knew what the consequences would have been
So we went our separate ways
Knowing full well, We'd never
Be totally Satisfied Again
Until We could be together
Why Lost Love, Why
Is there some meaning to this Madness
I sit and Cry for You, My Love
Knowing why I stayed in this situation,
Does nothing to ease my pain
I Miss You, My Lost Love
You have forever been in my thoughts Love
If there Is A God In Heaven,
Surely, He'll Give Us Another Try
My Love
I try so hard to be strong,
To show no signs of distress
Yet, he knows something is wrong,
Senses a change in me
He's trying so hard,
To make right the unjustly wrongs
Lost Love
Yet my thoughts and fantasies remain
Around our times in each others embrace
I only wish I could have told you again in person
But I'm sure You already know
There'll Never Be Another
My Love, My Lost Love
Is there supposed to be a grieving period
I don't know, I only know I hurt,
A deep Soul Hurting
Like a part of me has died
Love, Lost Love
Soliders overseas in Iraq
Many lost their freedom
Cause they lost their lives
Families over here in America
Angry about that
No words to spreak to apoligize for that
Hey whens this gonna end
Whens enough blood gonna shed
Whats it gonna take to stop this war
Whens are troops comein back
Children here learning violence
Takeing guns to school
Just for a little payback
Dads feelin guilty
Well he should
Bought more bullets just last wee
Now his son is lookin at 30 to life
Cause he took 13 kids life
Hey whens this gonna end
Whens enough blood gonna shed
Whats it gonna take to stop this war
Whens are troops comein back
News is always spillin bad things
Thats all thats on anymore
Noone feels safe
Use to not always be like that
Hey whens this gonna end
Whens enough blood gonna shed
Whats it gonna take to stop this war
Whens are troops comein back
Hey America whens this gonna end
Whens enough blood gonna shed
Whats it gonna take to stop this war
We've been fightin at our own back door

HUMMING BEES
STILL MY HEART IS SEARCHING
FOR A TOUCH OF ETERNAL SPRING…
