Deeply Insane
The scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite insane.
~ Nikola Tesla
nights are dark and long
and those who come only
to wheedle
me into eating, or drinking, or brushing my hair
coddle and coo
yet bear knife and needle
to prepare my mind

Deeply Sleeping
Chorus
I'm deeply sleeping
while she's breathing;
two breaths mixing,
two hearts beating.
Verse I
The wintry night totally dark and cold
embraces us, it can never make us shiver;
we keep warm and feel behind delighted
each heartbeat measures a minimal fear.
Verse II
The many secrets of past loves remain inside,
we've buried all evidence, too afraid to reveal any
of them that

He Deeply Loved Us
Praise the Lord!
You could hear it from the roof tops
Thank the Lord!
He deeply loves us so much non-stop
I thank my Father
Too I thank His precious Son
For a really great life
That the Lord and Jesus both have shown

I'm Deeply Contemplating Myself
I had faith,
I had faith,
But later I realized
That all my ideas were wrong.
I had change,
I had change,
But my habits keep coming back
And want to hold me back once more.
I have friends,
I have friends,
But when I have troubles
Seldom I can see them support.
I have love,
I have love,
But I have not found love
In reciprocation

If Deeply Roars a Bard for Epic Muse
If deeply roars a bard for epic muse,
like newborn lambs that crave their mother's milk;
if feet that lightly trip along with shoes
of Mercury whose message speeds, like silk,
with lightning's sudden flash and peals of thunder;
if fate told jokes, regaled with

The world wavers between chaos and coherence, a paradox I deeply embrace
The world wavers between chaos and coherence, a paradox I deeply embrace,
I question the architecture of destiny—does it sculpt us, or do we shape it with trembling hands?
Doubt floats like mist over the river, but the current beneath is relentless and determined,
I've seen ruins blooming with wildflowers, silence birthing symphonies from the depths.
I hesitate, analyze,

A Love As Deep As The Stars And Sea
O stars, how tenderly you pierce the night,
Your silver whispers gliding through the sky,
Like tiny flares of love's eternal light—
In you, my own soft dreams are bound to lie.
The ocean waves, with secrets deep and true,
Roll soft as breath against the waiting shore;
In their embrace, I feel the strength of you,
A constant song that leaves

Humorous Laud, Deeply Flawed
The macabre’s amusing at times,
makes for off-beat, hilarious rhymes.
To my wife they’re not funny;
she wants cute little bunnies
and not ones that are strangled by mimes.
She says, “Why must the animals die?
And that one with the bird made me cry.
In the end, she did soar
off to some distant shore,
but her kin were all shot by some

Deeply, Dearly, Desperately
I am wanting so much to kiss your thin lips so deeply.
I find myself here simply missing you oh so dearly.
I'm longing for your body to be against mine desperately.

A deep obsession penetrated his mind, an untamed and deeply rooted passion
A deep obsession penetrated his mind, an untamed and deeply rooted passion,
Not even a twelve-step program could bring him the much-desired relief,
The poet had an incurable addiction, a need for freedom that he couldn't control,
His mind traveled to wild lands, unknown places full of promises.
An unending desire pulled at his soul, like an invisible and

In the thicket forgotten of deeply anchored thoughts
In the thicket forgotten of deeply anchored thoughts,
Where ideas nest, across time and tailored spaces,
There I stand, guardian of the undimmed realm, the archivist of the flame
That knows not extinguishing in the beating winds of history,
Guarding the pure light that does not fracture from darkness.
Shadow does not frighten me, in the tumultuous whirl of the

I AM DEEPLY ROOTED AND GROUND IN --HIM-
I am a tree I may waver and bend almost fall
and yet below me my feet are roots
and I'll stand ever tall
~for it's not about the arms and hands,
leaves and branches
my legs, my feet liken roots
I taller such so I am rooted
deeply and grounded
I am a tree I

I Loved Too Deeply
I once told myself I was incapable of love,
Because I could not love myself.
That was until I met you.
For months my diet consisted of not eating more than 300 calories,
Hours of exercise, even if I felt like I couldn't go on anymore,
There were the daily purges after all of that.
I skipped lunch every day just

Deeply They Linger
A life I lived has passed me by,
My thoughts of wanting to go back in time
I am trying to turn away and fly
I will lose my will of losing this time.
My fragmented memories on recall,
Difficult for me with an event installed
So long ago, I thought no more of it
