Premium Member Forever Loving You

Sounds of a great mountain roar
trembling echoes 
a shaking voice,
flooding down the face
a river of tears 
inside each drop, 
treasured sparkling crystals
pearl jewels weep.

Brings new life 
as joy sweetly blushing 
desires your beauty ,
Crowned queen of the flies bouquet colors,
a butterfly dances 
floats upon a sun lighting rays,
touching inside with warm wings 
sweeping an angel.

Sweet gently skipping desire 
hot pulse beats star lighting passion ,
glows behind the jewels,
baby you shine beautifully bright 
warm when the thunder roars ,
beast of reality natures lion.

Loves arrow strikes 
deeply blushing red
under a pink moon ,
sweetly embracing together 
kissing forever spirit of the night
always uniting under your love,
when our dream becomes true
into eternity hand in hand 
one masterpiece 
walking to paradise 
adoring the picture within you.


Lover of Wild Women

He's never around when his wife
needs him and climbing the staircase
leading to the separate bedroom,
he falls and makes a boom; 
he didn't expect to get caught,
Susy wakes up screaming a lot.

Lover of wild women,
don't you ever think about
your faithful woman who waits
by the window and cries
a river of tears and showing a frown,
she truly wishes you would hold her
on the coldest night
and end her despair!

Lover of wild women,
you have a beautiful family
and a wife who loves you madly;
oh, give up your adventures for their happiness...
nothing is worth holding on to if it's no win!
Make them your priority and you won't be sorry!

Affairs outside of marriage don't last,
a blind date with a stranger is a mistake;
women who chase after married men
can't find those single guys who'll spoil them...
be wise and turn around, go back home:
they wait for you, they need you there!

Lover of wild women,
don't shrug your shoulders
and think only of your pleasures
while your family gets ignored anyhow.
Can this go on forever? Somehow 
it'll cause a sharp pain in your chest,
somehow it'll bleed while you're alone;
can those women give you any comfort?

Premium Member Frown

Rising up over your fears,
Swimming through your private river of tears 
The path sometimes seemed so steep
Relying on the strength that is hiding so deep.
Trying to rise and move beyond the past,
You stood fast.
During times pressing you down
Kept your head up and didn't drown .
Didn't get lost in the frown.
The struggle was real ,
It is valid, how it is you feel.
Standing with self worth, this new found pride.
No reason for you to hide.
while reaching for your star,
You have came so far.
time may of passed you by,
How it seemed to fly .
During the learning years 
you have earned them tears
Accepted your fears.
Behind , lies much sorrow.  
Now time welcomes you , into
tomorrow .

Premium Member Lost

Where are you? My friend and most cherished one,
Throughout the years we have had so much fun
How could I Live without you in my life?
Don't you recall the victories we've won

You left without saying one single word
As I searched for you, silence was all I heard
What did I do to cause you to vanish 
The fact that you left was so absurd 

Now that you're gone, I cry a river of tears
How can I alone face my many fears
My tomorrow looks bleak and very dark
Am i supposed to just stop and shift gears

You are the light of my of tortured soul
In your presence i felt completely whole
Without you my dear muse, I am so lost
When we're in sync we achieve many goals

Premium Member - Tears On the Wind -

The moment we can only hold a small second 
   Ask the oldest ones that have lessons weapon 
 
   I find parts of you in every love song content 
   Tears they fall silent and fills up the river they prevent 

   An infinite movement where the soul flames burning 
   Out comes the warmth that spreads like yearning 

   The race starts while life is dawning 
   The fear of losing the grip comes creeping every morning 

   Friends who have died in war for peace - still in my thoughts and dreams 
   The angels protect me against demons - it seems 

   Life is a Bridge of Sighs over a river of tears like a pray 
   In the wind you plant your tears - the storm will blow them away

Ever Heartfelt Wish

E-ver heartfelt wish
R-eaches deep inside; 
L-arge amount of mirth
I-s not going to hide.
N-either eye will be sad, 
D-ay twentieth October; 
A-nother great greeting wakes you from slumber.

O-verwhelming wish
R-eaches deep within; 
I-t gives a thousand thrill, 
L-etting your lips gladly grin.
L-et the heartfelt wish cause comfort and pleasure; 
A-fter the chill disappears, warm regard carries rapture.

M-y ever heartfelt wish
A-rrives at your ears; 
R-eceive it with gladness, 
C-ry not a river of tears.
I-t's time to leave the dark, as the shadows slowly vanish; 
A-llow your life to enjoy my ever heartfelt wish.

Premium Member The Sacred Child

The sacred child on the hill

Buried deep but never forgotten

River of tears

Washed along into an ocean of deep longing

Years pass by

The girl becomes the woman

Relationships begin and end

Happiness brings a new journey

A baby in the making

Driving out old thoughts

Touching her stomach in repentant hope

Sadly, hope dies in the womb

Guilt turns to punishment from above

The sacred child on the hill

Watches the figure coming towards her

Slowly entering the river

Washed along into an ocean of deep longing

The sacred child on the hill

Reunited for evermore..

Premium Member Knife's Edge

the tattoo on her eyebrow frowned

at the sight of yesteryear’s cutlass

the well-rounded blade had become

blunt dull and worn down from overuse 

and yet straight to the point of salvation


the pain cut unceremoniously deep

like a double-edged sword that

protracted the kill in anticipation

of slicing from a lacerated mind


saw teeth serenaded an ode to demise

one more incision and the blood flow

would take her across the river of tears

lacerated dreams punctured and carved into 

her epitaph a forgone pleasant conclusion

the point of no return loomed un-capriciously 

her wounds had festered in purulent beauty 

and she appealed to her inner resolve


why prolong the inevitable release

and she was calm with no tremor

as she faced the extinction of terror


her glance fell upon the scalpel

next to the toothbrush and lather

and the mirror liked what it saw

cracked glass a few shards missing

a borrowed fantasy and reflection

of a bloody life unwanted as she

pondered upon what message 

to inscribe on her tombstone


the shower curtain ready for a last splash

cheered her on ‘don’t you worry’

‘I’m easy to clean the mess will abide’

grout bleach and tiles lured a whitewash

and the toilet brush smiled in applause

cacophonous bristles caked in foul smell

took her closer to the crappy memories

which had darkened a life not worthy

of living and she let out a flatulent moan

ultimate and terminal the fizz pounced 

and she gripped the rapier with 

surgical precision and intricate joy


then Occam’s razor pleaded for parsimony

and she went back to self-laceration

prolonged suicide suited agony’s hurt

much better than a knife in her heart
