Premium Member A Girl I Once Knew

She was quiet
Almost shy
And kind.
I was crude
Rough
In a hurry
I only thought of me
She thought of us.

When we dated
We frequented local places
Never venturing beyond
Our quiet town
We had some good times
But I grew tired of the sameness
I wanted to see the world
Meet the smart money
Feel the hustle
And take in the give.

Eventually things faded
Our calls were infrequent
Her voice became cold and formal
A tiny crack seeped between us
Growing into a fracture
That couldn’t be healed
When it ended
We went on our own
But it hurt me more 
Than I admitted
Walking home that night I bit my lip
To keep from crying.

One day my mother said
She thought she saw her
In town
Holding a young child by the hand
She looked happy.
“I thought you didn’t like her” I said
Stopping, my mother searched my face
“I was used to seeing you as a couple that’s all.”


We met by chance years later
We changed
The world changed
Things happened
We stared at each other
Not speaking
Just staring
Standing
At arm’s length 
In awkward silence
I was going to ask about children
But I didn’t
The anguish 
And bitterness of rejection
Was still buried somewhere inside.

We parted the same way we met
Awkwardly
Memories came back
And I realized 
She was comfortable where she was
A place where time moved 
In its own peculiar way
A world of
Small shops
Familiar strangers
Clean streets
A place where mothers 
Kept an eye on their children.
All in all
Not a bad place to live
And certainly not a bad life.

A voice inside my head
Whispered “Who was she?”
I pretended not to hear
When I look back
I remember the time
A girl walked into my life
For a brief moment.
Maybe it was love
Or infatuation
But whatever it was
She was the girl I once knew.

Resume' De Amor

What lies before us is not always certain,
This world is full of obstacles and branching paths that we could have never imagined
Our plans are set in stone, forthright and true,
Then along comes chance and our love anew.

Confused and trodden becomes our focus,
Our plans and certainness all but tarnished
What is this epiphany that fate has spoken?
Are morality and conviction to be broken?

Eyes exchange glances and hearts begin to race,
Time has stopped and is now our servant,
Passion takes hold but could it be real,
Could this person truly feel what I feel?

A body warm and full of affection,
A face that God emulated ‘perfection’,
A touch so soft to ease flurried emotion,
A hold so captivating to enchant devotion,

A kiss that makes all the angles in heaven stop and stare,
A kiss that somehow makes this world worth it,
A kiss that shows that souls persist,
A kiss to show me love exists.

Reality snaps back and we look upon our created wreckage,
What we have done and morals we have shaken,
Existing upon this planetary system,
Are our man made codes and laws of action,
But how small and minuscule upon the greater picture,
Are these moral obligations to what could be true heartfelt passion?
I know how I feel and I know what I want,
And I know it hurts you to think of your loss,
Sometimes loss is the greater good,
As when a forest burns to ash for the greater good,
Rebuilt and strong it becomes renewed,
My forest is gone and waiting for you,
To become something greater then I could have ever imagined,
To be the love that I always wanted,
Feel my heart and how it beats for you,
You are the life that makes my world true.
What does your heart tell you?
I only hope you listen.

My Ghost

Tenderness and love was all in their reach
An omen spoken 
To live in fear and stand still in the night
A guardian angel placed in their room
But who was to know of the darkness 
Their short time together wouldn’t last all night
The darkness of gloom took him away
Lost in limbo, alone and sad
Standing looking at himself still covered in blood.

She lay there with him for the very last time
Hoping and praying that the world was not passing by.
It was not to be and no farewells spoken
His body was gone but not the love
Empty spaces all in a daze
He tried to get back to touch her one last time
He needed to be there 
Complete with her but it wasn’t to be
In desperation he did reach out
And found the angel standing firm
She took him away from the one he loved

The light shone bright one late night
This time it was for real.
His love for her shined as he stood by her side
Then farewells were spoken with nothing to hide
I love you she said as the penny fell for the last time
Ditto he said to an empty shell
Then they took him slowly away without a backward glance.

He left this world knowing love and meaning
And she loved no other
Life doesn’t last forever so make it count
Live for today for the darkness of gloom is always out there
Friends and lovers pass like ships in the night
Sometimes never to pass this way again
So grab what you can and try to make it last forever
Happiness is short lived and the ride stops for no one.

Music Wont Plau

Endings are unloving and end fast,love that you once knew, will never last.

I threw my cares up in the wind cause I'll never be able too see you again.The music that
used to play for you,died with the dreams that will never come true.

While you just sit there and watch life pass by,I'll sit and watch you walk out of my life.

I wont stop you, you deserve more than me,there can be no love if no one believes.

Do you ever wonder what might have been,if you were to go back and do it all over again.

Is there life after death, or is a just a black dreamless sleep,With souls un-perished in
the dark and lonely deep.

These are things that go through my mind when I look in your eyes,somehow without you
saying a word I know it'll be all right.

The whole world can come crashing down on top of you and me,I would take all the pain in
the world if I knew we were meant to be.

But what's love, but lie after lie after lie.What will we feel after the laughter and the
music dies.

Can you sing me a lullaby as I fall asleep,will you go with me to the unknowns of the deep?

Blurry visions, undecisive decisions, and desirable missions.

This has become more than love just an obsession.

Uncontrollingly I gave you everything I have and then some,but I hate what done and what
I've become.

So I throw my cares up in the wind,cause I'll never be able to see you again.

The music that used to play for you,died with the dreams that'll never come true.?

Melancholy Sunrise

Darkness lays awake,
waiting upon her breaker.
The one that lies upon her and whispers to go,
leave behind nothing that you covered with your soul...
Yet she knows she does not need to hear these words
to initiate her departures; she could velvet herself 
and ghost over the world so simply.
like a cloth dip in red wine; enveloping the color,
but not savoring the need of intoxication.
She stays
wanting to feel his warmth,
wanting to feel his glow over her body,
that truly in a way, makes her disappear,
for the world forgets her till she comes again.
and again
and again
torturing herself, for every ray of light cuts her skin,
but she is not masochistic.
Why does she stay?
Why does she endure?
He's coming, slowly over her...

He Rises.
Rises in such an ill manner, That you would think
he would give up an descend once more.
once more so he could ponder and wish;
all more to the dreamer that stays asleep in his wake.
How he wants to be one of these creatures that get to roam
inside her skirt, laugh between her legs, and rest upon her bosom.
Envy
so much of it heat rises, why he still feels the need to cry...
He feels her fleeting, 
never ever seeing her, her known only by his touch.
His eyes stay close needing, pleading, seething,
just to see 
just to see her
just...her
He stands fully now and the world is smiling,
but he is not.


World Falling

Watch my world crumble down,
cave in, once noble walls;
see the paint chips peeling 
downward, the fairytale falls.
Here I am underneath
trying to hold it up, trying to hold
but it keeps pushing down
sooner or later I'm going to fold.
Can't you see: I can't do this,
can't go on like this forever
I'm going to crack before their eyes
won’t be able to: keep it together.
Watching all I ever had be destroyed;
feel your eyes  upon  my back
feel your nails down my skin,
clawing down hoping I'll crack;
you're trying really hard
and my head is spinning with your tales
my lips burn from you lies
watching my defenses fail.
My body shakes by your words
and I feel it all beginning to crumble
my heart aches as I: behold you
and I know I am going under.
Watch my world cave in
Atlas could not hold it anymore,
my stomach is churning from your touch
again you spew blasphemy, mouthing “Whore.”
And I have listened to you lies long enough
my lips bleed from continual recitation
of all the things you said to me
what created such provocation?

A Deadly, Sinful Game

Some days
It just seems so hard to breath,
As if the world is reaching out
To get a firmer grip on your throat.

Now sit back and take a note.
Listen as I shout;
Getting the response I wish to achieve,
As it all falls into place.

You are growing scared,
But I do not stop.
You will see my pain
In which the world has caused.

I have paused. 
I yank hard on your chain,
Hearing your neck pop
And your vision is impaired.

LISTEN!
I shout louder,
Getting my point across;
Making my pain known.

It is finally shown.
You are the cause;
A coward.
The blood glistens.

My pain is gone,
It went with you.
You were a pawn,
In this game for two.

I played and I won.
Victory is mine. 
Now the game is done;
I've made my sign.

Now when it feels hard to breath,
When the world has you on your knees,
Begging for mercy
And you plead, 
Know that my pain
That I held in
Was caused by none other
Than a sin
Made in the game...

I have nothing to gain...

Move On

I thought the love we shared

was true.

A new connection, between me

and you. 

 

Now today the world is new.

Our love is gone

once one now two.

It's lost in that world of lonely.

 

(Refrain)

I take a deep breath, find myself again.

I don't know what to do

without you.

But it's time to move on with my life.

 

The memories we had,

the times that we shared,

that first kiss I so willingly gave.

I thought it would last forever.

 

(Refrain)

I take a deep breath, find myself again.

I don't know what to do

without you.

But it's time to move on with my life.

 

The secrets I told you,

the ones you told me.

I thought you would hold me

for eternity.

 

Who knew,

how different

our world

could someday be.

 

(Refrain)

I take a deep breath, find myself again.

I don't know what to do

without you.

But it's time to move on with my life.

Premium Member My Love

When I think of you, my darling,
I am still that wide-eyed girl
Who held the whole world in her hands
As her heart was set awhirl.

With no thought nor intuition
Of how short a life can be,
We promised "Until by death we part"
With a sweet expectancy.

God gave us such a little time
To wrap up every dream.
The plans we made were not to be 
All included in His scheme.

It's not my place to question God,
I knew from the very start,
But I cannot help but wonder why
Our world was torn apart.

You'll be the same, my darling boy
When we are allowed to meet,
But you won't find remembered girl
Who had made your life complete.

It has been another lifetime since
You had to leave me here.
My hair has grayed, my step has slowed,
My eyes are not so clear.

Yes, the years have surely changed me
Since the day we had to part.
To be sure you recognize me,
I'll be carrying my heart.

My Heart Is Done

Seven time my heart had been broken 
Boken into pieces 
There was only a little piece of it 
And
You took it 
You took the last piece And
Didn't handle it with care Now it is all broke all gone 
All gone 
My heart is gone 
I am sitting here with no heart 
No heart
I don't know what to do
I had been crying 
I had been crying 
I had crying myself to sleep 
I had been crying all day and night 
I have no heart 
I had been crying 
I had been sitting in this cold world 
All alone The world is so cold So cold...And dark...So dark.. And black
So black... here no red...No red... 
Oh red where are u? ..I
 am siting here crying and hoping one day I will find red...
My heart is done 
People had been walking all over it Now 
I don't have no heart Because I
t is all gone All done So done... So done...
Done....
