My Heart Still Remembers

My heart still remembers the days of our youth
When searching for answers we stumbled on truth
We were meant for each other as night into day
And you swore to be true promising never to stray
We looked to the future so young and so bold
Thinking we knew how the years would unfold

We stood before God with stars in our eyes
Never thinking one day we’d say our goodbyes
I see you standing there handsome and young
Knowing our future had just begun
We lived our lives as though we were one
Sharing trouble and heartbreak with days in the sun

Today we said our last goodbyes
I whispered I love you as I closed your eyes
Our journey is over...I'm alone and bereft
The memory of you is all I have left
But my heart overflows...my heart fills with joy
Knowing our love even death can’t destroy

Forever More and More

Meet me at midnight under the moonlight
 I’ll always wait for you to come 
For you and only you fill my heart with
Tender thoughts of devotion 

I shine in the brilliant shadow of your love
When memories come to haunt my soul
I know you’ll always be my strength
Even though I hide my tears 
Strange as it seems, you know my fears 

You kiss my soul...
Bathing my heart with your warming love
Your passion lights the embers of my desire
 For you...only you my love

I am drenched in the after glow of our love
 It fills my senses...
Like the sweet smell of morning coffee
 You my love...
Are the crème and sugar to my soul. 

As I turn the many pages of our love 
I float in magical bubbles that arouse my heart
 Breathing in all the tiny moments
And secret words in the private world we share
Ecstasy paints its vivid hues
 Into the deepest chambers of my mind
Enticing me to linger in the warmth of your caress...
Showering your lips with maple kisses 

You are enclosed within my heart, 
Carved flawlessly …
     Forever my love
            Forever more and more

Sorrow

It starts with fragments of pain
Like tiny pins being pushed into the heart
The heart thinking he could take the pains; ignored
But this pain is like no other, so he cried
Crying out to the whole body to take it away
The body tries but the pins are like colony of ants
Tiny but lethal and infectious in unity
The heart skipped and is out manoeuvred by pain
Jerking in rebellion with all its strength
Too late! Pain has invited guilt, with guilt- regrets
Now a trio, their strength is stronger than body
The heart defeated, betrayed and battered, beats in his fastest succession
And eye tears for the chaos and confusion of the body 
All hail sorrow, the conqueror of man.

Who Art Thou

Who art Thou oh Lord to me 
The heart within my heart 
The soul within my soul 
The breath within my breath
Yet wretched mortal in me 
Knows not how to love thee
Knows not how to find thee
Knows not how to yearn for thee

I Am

when your heart is troubled
do not cry a tear
i am always near
i may not be there physically
im the whisper that you hear
im the tear in your eyes
when you cry in pain

im the beat in your heart 
that keeps rythym with the rain
im the last ounce of strength 
when u think y have none left
im the voice in ur mind
that helps u get thru the day

im the whisper in the wind that helps u find the way
and when u think that ur alone 
and that nobodys there
just remember and think of me cause i am always there

Within Whispers

Speak in my dreams 
Race against the time
I follow my inner freedom
I believe you have faith in me
A spirit so high on life within  

To lose yourself within whispers
The sounds become the walls 
Locked within the moments 
I remember all that is in my mind 
Some lifes live on  

I may run faster than the wolves 
As the long grass  is under my feet 
I will take no hate when my grave is deep
Truth of ones heart will cover thee
The kiss from my lover will warm my cold

Fear has no passing as the wind takes my hair
The locks that dance behind 
I will run to the mountain top
To be the queen of your castle 
I will marry the man of all lovers

He awaits at the edge of the stream 
His purest heart is my tune
The words of his love is my sign 
His fire is my divine souls being
He sets my passion free
Form: Verse

A Stronge Feeling

A joy so potent, could not be mine
A love so pure and free,
yet here I behold, a soul so divine
That it raptures me.

Without a doubt, I’m lost in time
for the love you give me
Makes my heart beat your rhyme
My love, you set my soul free

To live without you
My heart would break
My favorite song is you
You inspire me to create.

My love, mi amor
You are my air
You are my time
You are the smile while I rhyme

The love I bear is a boundless supply
This love I give is for no other guy.
And “No!” I won't roll in the opposite direction
Only you, can ever satisfy my infection.

Dear lover, you are my addiction
my cure and my conviction
If to love you with all my heart is a crime?!
Then I will gladly do the time.

Useless Tears

Hello friend,
i see you there,
crying silently,
in despair,
crystal rivers,
liquid sorrow,
fears still linger,
til tomorrow,
when the past,
will slip away,
we will die,
by light of day,
the moon will call,
my spirit to wake,
the heart of beast,
is mine to break,
with gentle fingers,
cooling air,
heartless fire,
does not care,
what is love,
it all will burn,
because we,
will never learn,
the power of love,
and light inside,
under cover,
from fear we hide,
the lights are red,
my heart is blue,
and i know not,
what to do,
walking blind,
to waking dreams,
blocking out,
the silent screams,
when running wild,
is no more fun,
the children hide,
from the burning sun,
wishing hard,
for stars to fly,
we watch our dreams,
rain from the sky.

My Climb

God in his divine divinity
I saw in my dream’s reality
My heart filled with submission
No thoughts entered this finality

My wandering heart found a well
Where my immense thirst could dwell
The place of holy suspension
No time for pride to swell

My darkest and deepest fear
Which I held to myself as dear
With expanding dimensions
Saw godliness getting near

The still point on the wheel of time
About which poets wrote in rhyme
I now accept with absolution
Getting ready for my climb
Form: Didactic

Despair

For thus my heart ache
	for a song that is written

For thus it break 
       for a love that is given


Hear my heart as I cry
	for my voice breaks in silence

I’ll be humble, as I lie
	just let me feel your gentle presence


That each time, I’m a live
	I’ll look at the sky then smile

And say,
	now, I can die.

Isn'T It Just Like a Women

Isn't it just like a woman 
To want someone to hold her tight 
To comfort her when the bad dreams arive 
In the cold and the darkness of night 


The sweet loving smile of a woman 
Can make your poor heart skip a beat 
Makes a man find the right things to say 
And lay petals of roses at her feet 


Now isn't it just like a woman 
To wonder of stars up above 
And take in the beauty of nature 
Then turn it all into true love 


Now isn't it just like a woman 
With a soul that is tender indeed 
She can comfort the hurt 
And the pain in your heart 


Yes isn't that just like a woman

Feelings

What kind of feeling would I have 
Without you around to hold 
Bliss, sweet bliss would slip away 
And oh how my heart would grow old 


And without you my poor heart would break 
And my soul, would turn so cold. 
I would shiver with fear of the unknown 
And hide in a corner of dark 


A deep dark corner where feelings die 
And float slowly down to the ground 
But those beautiful memories that would not die 
Will drift so slowly afar

Your lovely memories will travel
Catching a ride on the westerly winds 
And find you, with your beauty bright 
And find you where ever you are

"what I See"

You walk with such beauty and grace...
A radiant smile and a soft glow in your face..
But I see all thats behind that beauty of art..
Such inner amazement as sweet as a tart...
A heart of gold that never see's the bad...
Excepting my flaws and the crosses I had..
Behind your eyes a little girl still hides..
She comes out at times and never misses a stride..
Your mind and your soul created with love..
My heart still trembles and I flutter like a dove..
Your words and your dreams are a script to my mind..
Thats why there is much more then beauty, a women so kind..

"a Rose"

The flower that most touches my heart is a rose
For Rosanna is my wife and that's where my heart goes..
She could be hard to hold and could cut to a glide..
But only I know the rose petals have a softer side..
When she awakes in the morning its like blooming in the spring..
They close so slightly only to bring better things..
Her scent so alluring as a rose does the same..
Her love so intoxicating, my love you can't tame..
So a rose is my flower that stays in my life..
And I'm so lucky to have Rosanna as my wife..

Suppository, I Love You!

my heart, but not for you;
In a heart, in vain.

Does a heart ever fade,
No my heart only remains,
In a chest in very big steps,
for a moment and now listen 

heart,

what is it that makes it an attraction,
my heart, but not for you,
in a heart, in vain.
