Best Song Words Poems
I'm going to sing a lullaby
~For you my precious one~
May these words erase all your fears
~As night time has now come~
These words are sang with starlit skies
~To you my precious one~
So please now close your eyes
~Until a new day has begun~
Dream of chasing butterflies
~My sweet and precious one~
May you wake to clear bright skies
~With many happy days of fun~
I sing to you this lullaby
~My loving precious one~
I will always be near to dry each tear
~If they ever should happen to come~
May I always wake to your beautiful smile
~My dear sweet precious one~
My love for you will reach endless miles
~As your lifetime journeys have begun~

Music man, Music man
Your loving guitar in hand
Your music was my downfall
Taking my heart, taking my all
I fell in love with your words,
Grew addicted to your rhythm.
The sorrow in your burning chords,
Drew me in with them.
I felt your music flow through me
Getting lost, carried away
In your songs, in your dreams
As I listened to you play
Music man, Music man
Your loving guitar in hand
Your music was my downfall
Taking my heart, taking my all
Music man, Music man
Your loving guitar in hand
Your music was my downfall
Taking my heart, taking my all

Sometimes Heartbroken
I know I still love you
After all that you’ve done
You tell me different lies
Than you told everyone
I try to deny
The pain that’s built up inside
Though, even when I smile
My heart starts to divide
Sometimes heartbroken
Now that I finally realize
The words that you’ve spoken
Were really all lies
Sometimes Heartbroken
I’m dying inside
And I can’t seem to get over you
No matter how hard I tried
Now every time I see you
I feel emptiness in my heart
But then I remember
How you deceived me from the start
Even then I had a feeling
That this may never last
But I can’t help thinking
About throwing away that past
Sometimes heartbroken
Now that I finally realize
The words that you’ve spoken
Were really all lies
Sometimes Heartbroken
I’m dying inside
And I can’t seem to get over you
No matter how hard I tried
So tell me why
You had to lie to me
You may have tricked everyone around you
But you were the one who just couldn’t see
Sometimes heartbroken
Now that I finally realize
The words that you’ve spoken
Were really all lies
Sometimes Heartbroken
I’m dying inside
And I can’t seem to get over you
No matter how hard I tried
Sometimes Heartbroken
As I look back on this
I find that I’m no longer broken
As these words pass my lips
Sometimes Heartbroken
Pen,Ink, Paper
I see piece of paper,
Next I see some Ink,
And finally I noticed a
lovely and unique pen.
But to my surprise they
we're out of sync.
That had a bad, bad
disagreement.
I wanted to help so
I asked what the
problem was.
Each tried to talk at the
same time, I waved my
hand said one at time.
( I felt like a judge)
Ink, you can go first,
he nodded and began
to talk
" I'm tired of not being
appreciated. If it wasn't
for me no poems, books,
songs, or words in general
would ever be seen".
The pen just interrupted
ink, Wait a minute you
and me or inseparable.
We have lived together
for centuries. You need
me ink".
Paper jumped in and said
" Where would you display
all your pieces of work if
it wasn't for me? Your work
would be useless. I'm talking
to you both".
I finally jumped in and said,
all three of you are important.
You all serve a special purpose.
But you serve a bigger when
you all are in sync working
together as a unified team."
When I said those words,
they made up and became
a team once again.
The End.

A song unsung is not a song
Until the music plays.
And the verse meant to come alive
Is just a meaningless phrase.
But there is no song without the words
That give meaning to it all
And to separate the two will bring
Nothing you’ll recall
But if the two are blended
In a very special way
Something magic happens
That you don’t see every day.
You’ll find rhythm in the music,
And a rhyme for all the words
And if you listen closely
Angels can be heard.
To put it all together
May seem a mighty chore
For what you’re really looking for
No one’s heard before.
The words may come from wisdom
Or from deep within your heart
And the chord that brings these words to life
Requires a very special art
Then, when you think it’s finished,
And all the work is done
Just give it one more edit
And then enjoy the fun.

Been sittin’ here thinkin’ all day long
Wantin’ to-say somthin’ that didn’t sound wrong
You walk around the corner and your smile meets mine
My heart starts racin’ like it does every time
I knew this could be a special night
Wanted it to work out just right
So I practiced the words all day
Had ‘em all arranged so I could say
Please let me love you tonight
Will you be my wife?
I want to be with you tonight
And the rest of my life
Please let me love you tonight
Her tears comin’ down were a sight to see
Took my hand smiled and said to me
You know I love you a lot
I don’t even know how to stop
I took her in my arms held real tight
My tears runnin’ down were quite a sight
Now we’re both cryin’ unsure why
Guess we knew this was for life
Please let me love you tonight
Will you be my wife?
I want to be with you tonight
And the rest of my life
Please let me love you tonight
We walked that night in the rain
Not really carin’ what we were sayin’
We were married on a warm day in May
Flowers everywhere scented the day
I said my vows as I looked in her eyes
Seeing only love no compromise
I’ll always remember that fine day
Me tryin’ to find the right words to say
Please let me love you tonight
Will you be my wife?
I want to be with you tonight
And the rest of my life
Please let me love you tonight
Yeah baby please let me love you tonight
Please let me love you tonight
You know I will for the rest of my life…
Some have asked about how song turned out. Check for on itunes under my name Shawn Sackman. Thanks.
I know I'm no Bernie Taupin
so, DON'T GO BREAKING MY HEART
I know my lyrics are simple
every poet needs a place to start
I may not be Bernie Taupin
I didn't write CROCODILE ROCK
but, I know that I too can write the words
I just need my Elton John
I may not be Bernie Taupin
he wrote GOODBYE YELLOW BRICK ROAD
my mind works in easier concepts
no "hunting the horny back toad".
I may not be Bernie Taupin
creator of BENNIE AND THE JETS
but I can write a love song
of a life lived with no regrets
I may not be Bernie Taupin
his hits are way more than a few
I may not have an answer to his TINY DANCER
but I've danced a mad tango or two
I may not be Bernie Taupin,
I didn't write YOUR SONG
It turned out to be, a song for everybody
and not just for THE ONE
I may not be Bernie Taupin,
who wrote CANDLE IN THE WIND,
he struck gold the second time for Diana
the first time was for Marilyn
I may not be Bernie Taupin
by now that's not really news,
but I too can write a sad, sad song
so, I GUESS THAT'S WHY THEY CALL IT THE BLUES
I may not be Bernie Taupin
and the ROCKET MAN is out of touch
but my sad songs also have merit
because SAD SONGS SAY SO MUCH
I may not be Bernie Taupin,
but, I'M STILL STANDING here with NIKITA
Bernie can make a hit out of anything
even going with DANIEL, to eat pizza
I may not be Bernie Taupin
but I write footloose and fancy free
maybe it's not like PHILADELPHIA FREEDOM
but hey! DON'T LET THE SUN GO DOWN ON ME
Bernie and Elton would both say
that it's been no SACRIFICE
and, SOMEONE SAVED MY LIFE TONIGHT
were lyrics that just felt right
It's been an amazing partnership
almost 50 years and still going strong
Bernie Taupin writes awesome lyrics
but the music is all Elton John.
So, I may not be Bernie Taupin
but I can write lyrics to a song, but
a song needs music and a melody
guess, I'll keep waiting for my Elton John.

I can remember that day…like it was just yesterday. The pain inside, was too much to
bear. As they lowered you in the ground, my world came a crashing down. No more
would I ever see your radiant smile. That day is still a blur…as I drank the night away.
Hoping it was all just a dream? But, reality came around and my emotions broke me
down…and it all came a crashing down. It took me by surprise as those tears filled my
eyes. My drink became a salty river of tears…I can still hear the Reverends last words
as he commended your body to the earth. I was around town feeling sorry for myself,
my emotions were coming down…I could still he his words as he commended you to the
earth, but my heart couldn’t let you go. As they held me back from jumping in your
grave…the emotions started to fill my soul, I was around town feeling so sorry for
myself. Try to drown my pain with whiskey and beer…but those emotions came a
tumbling down. As my drink became a salty river of tears, no more…no more…would I
ever hear your laughter, that seemed as though it could fill the ever after. Later that
night as I lay down to sleep, I reached over to that empty spot where you use to be…I
swear I could almost hear you say, “ Dry your tears, someday we will be back together
as we laugh together in this life here after…so weep no more. I’ll see you on the other
side.” As I closed my eyes, the pain began to subside…I knew one day soon I’d get to
see your radiant smile and hear your laughter.
on the radio;
are songs, my love, not words
to bridge this rift
you are exorcising
memories of love, but why?
I'm not a hero for saving this game, and turning it around
I'm in entrepreneur for creating this game, from underground
I put these words together and spit 'em, so while you listen to my flow,
realize that none of this is for money, I do it as food for the soul.
Understand that these words are nothing, but a few syllables,
that are never gonna be read out over a microphone.
Unless I, actually make it, so this is make it or break it,
shatter it and glue it then do the same as I continue my day shift.
Of letting people step over me, and I'm slowly exploding,
'cause these people never sit down they wanna see me create a scene.
They wanna see me let go of this grudge, and finally blow up,
but why would I give these people anything that they want?
They're never gonna repay me, I need somebody to save me,
I need a friend that isn't gonna turn around and betray me.
So I keep writing, and letting my emotions run out through this pen,
cause I'll do anything to keep myself away from giving in.
The Master Of The Rhyme
This was inspired by comments
made to me , by Great Poets
Peter Duggan and Olive Guillermo
And sung to the tune
Phantom Of The Opera's
"Music of The Night" by Andrew LLoyd Webber
Words that rhyme well--- serve to show my passion
Searching for the--- style that suits my fashion
Everything I see--- Is a poem meant for me
And I write it though it seems to be sublime
I truly am the master of the rhyme
While I’m sleeping--- in my mind come creeping
Filled with laughter--- mystery and weeping
Like an artist with his brush---I am filled with such a rush
And it paints a picture deep inside my mind
I wonder if I’m Master of the rhyme
Do you know who’s the Master of all known words
Do you know when he comes or where he goes
As He writes with my hands and through my soul
Whether it be a rhyme or it be prose
Written words--- start forming innuendoes
Join and bond--- then rise like a crescendo
When I awake I find--- this happens every time
I am just the name that must be signed
For I am not the Master of the rhyme
As I sit here staring at the empty page
He whispers in my ear again
I don’t know where the poem’s going to go
But, when I start the words begin to flow
Is It God, and is He on the level
Cursing me, as If I were the devil
Cause once I start to rhyme---the words begin to chime
Like a bell--- keeps ringing in my mine
He truly is the Master of the Rhyme
He alone holds the blessing---I make mine
For I am just a servant of the Rhyme
Verse 1
I made a mistake but the price is too high
Can’t go on without you in my life
I can’t stop you leavin I wont stand in your way
But before you walk thru that door please let me explain
Verse 2
I have no excuses I won’t try to lie
I’ll tell you the truth I’ll look you straight in the eye
And after you’ve heard if you still feel the same
I’ll let you go because I know I’m to blame
Chorus
Don’t Walk away turn around and stay
Don’t Walk away leave the light within the day
Don’t Walk away I need you in every way
Don’t Walk away just stop and listen to the words I have to say
Verse 3
I know that you look at me with different eyes
And something so beautiful has died tonight
But I beg your forgiveness I’m down on my knees
Stay with me baby and I promise you’ll see
Verse 4
I know that I’ve hurt you and your feeling betrayed
I have no excuse for this stupid mistake
But I promise you this it’ll never happen again
I don’t want to lose you my lover and friend
Chorus
Don’t Walk away turn around and stay
Don’t Walk away leave the light within the day
Don’t Walk away I need you in every way
Don’t Walk away just stop and listen to the words I have to say
CHOURS
If I die young,bury me in satin,lay me down
on a bed of roses,sink me in a river at dawn,send
me away with the words of a long song,oh,oh.
Lord make me a rainbow,I'll shine down on
my mother,she'll know I am safe when she stands
under my colors,and life ain't always what you think
it ought to be no,ain't even gray,but she buries her baby.
The sharp knife of a short life well,I've had just enough time.
CHORUS
And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger.I've never
known the lovin of a man,but it sure felt nice when he was
holding my hand.There's a boy here in town says he'll
love forever.Who would have thought forever could be severed
by the sharp knife of a short life,well I've had just enough time.
So put on your best boy and wear my pearls.What I ever did
is done.A penny for my thoughts,oh know I'll sell them for a dollar.
There worth so much more after i'm a goner.Mayhbe then you'll hear
the words i been singing.Funny how your dead hoe people start listenin.
The ballad of a dove go wit peace and love,gather up your tears,keep
in your pocket,save them for a time when your really gonna need em.
Oh the sharp knife of a short knife,wellI've had just enough time. So
put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls. SONG DONE BY THE BAND PERRY
Reverse time and take it out it out of the universe!
I’m stamping you null and void
You got a lot to say but you’re not talking about much
It shouldn’t take you so long to come up with such
Non sense
Talk about something relevant and provoke thought
Is wisdom so hard to obtain
Stay away
The way I put words together remind me of the way God put the Earth together
Nothing missing and everything in place
The way I mix the spiritual with the natural
means i have superpowers
call it the spirit of discernment
I can see pass three dimensional
To say I aint lyrical is like saying religion is going away one day
It doesn’t make sense
Nope never I’m here to stay
You believe in something and when a whole bunch of people feel the same way
I am born
I got arms and legs and I’m growing
Without a bomb on me I’m blowing up
No one is allowed to use the pronoun “I’, followed by the words “like” and “as”
It belongs to me now
Pay me every time it slips out your mouth
Just like insurance all I state is there
I don’t care about your feelings right now
I’m arrogant I know and you wish me the best of luck
I know
But my charismatism makes sure I don’t get into a crash
I can’t get out of
God broke the mold when he created me so it is only right I give
You originality
Pain as a hobby
Why didn’t I think of that
Look in the mirror if you dare
And see where I’m at
This is the most powerful writing I ever done
My ex’s can be proud to say I use to f*** with him
“Yeah, I left him, he was too controlling.” Period,
Comma dot I’m innocent.
When all I ever wanted was you to do better than me
So that way all the pressure doesn’t fall on me
Not to brag about what I have done and what I’m doing but
I’m the one that co-signed for you to go to school
I listen to too much rap music that’s why I have a nice flow
I know what you’re thinking before you thought it
Name all the things you have done for me
I can do the math
I got a 100% in Algebra and my recall is great to be modest
But you swear so much like you were there in the delivery room
Helping my moms push
I wrote my life
On this ever so white paper
I wrote my life
With these ever so dark words
And I’m starting to wonder deep inside
Are my words getting through
Oh God, are my words getting through to you
It’s always one sin
After another
My life is one sin
After another
I’m starting to wonder
If your words are just goin through
Such deaf ears
I wrote my life
On this ever so white paper
I wrote my life
With these ever so dark words
And I’m starting to wonder deep inside
Are my words getting through
Oh God, are my words getting through to you
Why can’t I open my eyes
Why can’t I look past these lies
It’s not about me
Or having a girl in my life
Such sexual sin
Grabs a hold of me
When will I let go
Why can’t I let it go
I wrote my life
On this ever so white paper
I wrote my life
With these ever so dark words
And I’m starting to wonder deep inside
Are my words getting through
Oh God, are my words getting through to you
Oh God, I need you in my life
I need you to fill in this empty whole inside
Give me a desire for your word
Give me a taste of your beauty
Let my life into your hands
Because it’s not my will, but yours
I wrote my life
On this ever so white paper
I wrote my life
With these ever so dark words
And I’m starting to wonder deep inside
Are my words getting through
Oh God, are my words getting through to you
