Why must we let your old relationship 
hinder our new one

I'm a firm believer that in one's lifetime 
they may experience love a long the way

But they will only experience one true 
love

I'm not saying what you had with her  
wasn't real

But my question to you is did it fulfill?
She hurt you real bad, but eventually  
you will heal

Please don't take too long because time
is a enemy and not on our side

And it goes by in a flash

Embrace this burning passion that resides
in my heart for only you

I can tell you for sure that I've never had a
love like this

I know you're scared and don't want to 
get hurt
Hurting you is not my goal, if I can I just 
want to love until your heartache is gone

I know you love me too
I see it in your eyes
I feel it in your touch
I hear it in your voice

Just act on what you know is real
Take a leap of faith my love

But don't wait too long because time is
a enemy and not on our side

Premium Member Lover's Tic Tac Toe

The game of love is not unique
We can play it many ways
So why not try some tongue and cheek
To set a love ablaze

I’ll start and give a big ole’ hug
Represented by an O
And place it center where it’s snug
In Lover’s Tic Tac Toe

You answer with a tender kiss
In the left-hand corner
Your luscious X will taste of bliss
Now the game is getting warmer

I’ll mark an O below your kiss
Soon my hugs may form a row
Wait, your next smooch has gone amiss
By not blocking me below

It’s time to snatch up victory
I’ll place an O for three hugs
But that lapse would end this story
Coz I’d lose without your love

I think we’ve learned how to play this
Timeless game of Tic Tac Toe
We both share a hug and a kiss
No matter where letters go

A hankerin’
an unscratched itch 
which one doesn’t wish to scratch for one
a need for heat and warmth
a turnstile dreamer ushers night to morn.

A what the hell
why not devil may care
for who else does?
The siren calls Ulysses to her gate.

Flower scents surmount
the desert dryness of aging heroines.
Lotharios play grinding tic tac and toes
searching for the golden fleece.

And neither Heaven nor Hell 
concerns themselves
with such mundane matters.

Tic Toc

have you ever truly thought
about what really matters to you....in your life
the breathing, the blood, the health
the pieces of the puzzle that let you... be you
you know... the tic

have you ever truly appreciated
about who really matters to you....in your life
those that love you....have loved you...those you love...have loved
the puzzling pieces that welcome you.... to be you
you know... the toc

listen carefully to the sound of your  own timepiece
for the sweeping hands of time slow for no one
and destiny winds a cruelly cold tightrope
live your life to the fullest..every moment of every heartbeat
for one day...she shall call  out your name 

you know the tic...and the  toc

I’m ready for
Tic Tac Toe
Cause I got
my own rhymes to show
Watch me shine
My X’s are always in a row
Can you feel the room react
as it feels my glow
The Tickity Tac Tac
Clackity Clack Clack
Ricky Rhyme Time Show

My measures 
don’t need tethers
I’m the man
for any kinda weather
High or low pressure 
I’m a national treasure 
No cold front here
Just sunshine and pleasure
No need for a sweater 
Cause Baby 
you rock that leather

You can’t stop
Fast and Furious
I’m the White Tornado
Bright enough for New York City
Cool enough to cruise Colorado
Driving my tricked out Eldorado
Others can brag
I show and tell
My musical bravado

Now it seems Trim the Trimmer
Has served me up for dinner
His words more potent
Than 100 proof liquor 
They percolate and simmer
Rhyming sub-textually
Flowing quicker and quicker
Always the right mixture 
So as his Rhymes grow brighter 
Mine grow dimmer
Time to throw down the mike
and declare Trim the Trimmer
the Tic Tac Toe Award Winner.

Dedicated to The Rhyme Master Trim.
Just having a bit of fun playing in his sand box.

TIC TAC TOE

I DON’T PLAY TIC TAC TOE ANYMORE
I’M JUST INTO THE EXE’S YOU SCORE
I ONCE WAS A SQUARE
FULL OF CIRCLES IN MY HAIR
BUT NOW I COMPARE 
AND DRAW A LINE
THROUGH EVERY EXE‘S OF MINE
SO ARE YOU READY TO CROSS THE LINE

I’M WORTH THE RIGHT PRICE
SOON THERE BE RICE
THREE FOR THREE CROSS WITH ME
I’M STILL CIRCLING WITH MY HAIR
BUT I’M NOT GOING TO EXE’S YOU OUT
EVEN AFTER YOU CROSS THAT LINE 
AND LEAVE ME BEHIND

LET’S TAKE THE TIME
NOT PLAY THAT GAME SHINE
I’M HOPING YOU’RE THE LAST EXE’S OF MINE
WITH MORE CIRCLES IN MY HAIR
SO ARE YOU READY TO CROSS THAT LINE

I DON’T PLAY TIC TAC TOE ANYMORE
I’M JUST INTO THE EXE’S, YOU SCORE
I ONCE WAS A SQUARE
FULL OF CIRCLE IN MY HAIR
BUT NOW I COMPARE
THROUGH EVERY EXE’S OF MINE
SO ARTE YOU READY TO CROSS THE LINE

Tic-Toc

So many day you have been gone.
Letting go of the memories we've made, we could make. 
So many hour I have awaited your return.
Fighting against the demons of hell, for our love.
Very little time to save our love. 
Too many seconds, with time and clocks and never with you. 
Clocks that are broken, like I.
Time that lasts forever, unlike youth. 
The angles who sing to me from the greens and blues of a painted perfect heaven. 
So many things can go wrong without you. 
These clocks in my head stop time on us in love. 
They hardly move and hardly move, until they never move. . . ever again.

Premium Member Tic Tac the Wonderful Cat With a Special Mat

Tic Tac Was A Wonderful Cat 

And for That Reason, He Had A Special Mat 

It Was A Special Place to Go 

At the End of The Day When Tic Tac Felt Slow 

But One Day When the Sun Was Done 

Tic Tac Wanted A Place to Put His Bum 

But the Dog in The House Was A Very Quiet Mouse 

When He Was Walking Around 

Looking to Sit Down

Well the Dog Was on Tic Tac's Spot 

And Tic Tac Was Very Hot 

So, He Started to Meow 

Which Made the Dog Howl? 

The Two Had A Fight 

Showing Their Might 

And in The End 

Tic Tac Was Able to Defend 

The Mat That Was Reserved for Tic Tac the Wonderful Cat

Tic-toc the ticking
Crocodile goes skipping 
Through every sand
Of mortal man...
Tic-toc the ticking

Tic Toc Joey Rock

Frozen eyes gazing towards her sky
Green body bags their establishment's
Contribution to this darker shade in gray
You as yours thought she was an endless day ?
That wicked's evil generation could somehow someway
Perpetually carry on these blood dreanched banners swaying
While taunting till time's what but, I have beheld your best shot yes
Apocalyptic passages a glimpse this omen the beginning theirs and think not
Love shall fail to crash then burn his piper's fortified walls: no galaxy high enough
Nor cavern aneath her sea your bunker deep enough; for disarray's kings of nothing nay
Except, this rusting clock spelling tears the end in sin twas yours: My Spirit, rushing tides His mountain.

Tic-toc-tic-toc, tic-toc-tic-toc
It could never be your will;
Time stands still for no one;
Premise to the task;
Tic-toc-tic-toc, tic-toc-tic-toc
Whether smooth or rough
You may kill time;
But one day time gonna kill you;
The thrill is here;
But one day the thrill be gone;
You may live short;
Tic-toc-tic-toc, tic-toc-tic-toc
You may live long
But Time stands still for no one
Did you hear? Me
Time stands still for no one
You may now run time;
But one day times gonna run you;
You may start fast and long;
But one day you’re gonna last either right or wrong;
As you may yet still kill time;
But one day time gonna kill you;
The thirst will be more thirsty;
As the hungry ever more feminist;
There’s no need for food in heaven or hell;
So stand on in eternity on Earth you choose;
Once in the casket to late to move;
Bind the devil on every hand;
Stop living for today think eternal;;
Tic-toc-tic-toc, tic-toc-tic-toc
Whether smooth or rough
You may kill time;
But one day time gonna kill you;
The thrill is here;
But one day the thrill be gone;
You may live short;
Tic-toc-tic-toc, tic-toc-tic-toc
You may live long
But Time stands still for no one
Did you hear? Me
Time stands still for no one
You may now run time;
But one day times gonna run you;
So stop wasting time, so time won’t waste you;
You choose today which time is you;
Peace and love eternal life is better;
If you use time wisely now for heaven?
Time stands still for no one;

Tic Toc, Tic Toc

Tic Toc, Tic Toc
Goes the clock
Time the ruler of our minutes, hours and seconds
Life the ruler of how we spend that time

Tic Toc, Tic Toc
Goes the clock
Don’t watch the time
Just do what it does and keep moving
Because time waits on no man

Tic Toc, Tic Toc
Goes the clock
The last hour is upon us
We have no more time to waste

Tic Toc, Tic Toc
Goes the clock
Slowly it comes to a stop
On the hour of midnight 
The beginning of a new day

Ring, Ring, Ring,
Goes the church bell
Tic Toc you hear no more
Cause you are dead my friend
