Heart Tortured Forever

Even though it has been years and years, 
 Thoughts of our sometimes happiness brings the tears.
I can't let the hurt go, I have all these painful fears.
 Please tell me the torment, and hollowness will finally clear.

I'm stuck in a hole and I can't seem to crawl out.
 Every time we talk, you fill my head with doubt.
Too bad for you, I finally figured what you're about.
 You see, with me you no longer have any type of clout.

I just don't see what power you had over me.
 How did I ever let that come to be?
You've damaged me so deep, I want to scream like a banshee.
 I feel like with you around, I'll never truly be free.

I'll never be sure that I can trust a man the way I should.
 I don't think its something to ever be fully understood.
If you treated me right, I'd have stayed the best I could.
 However, you were vile, and loathsome and up to no good!

So you are out of my life, but not out of my mind.
 It took all the courage that I had to find.
You know what they say about love being blind?
 Its very true and you're not at all refined.

I'd like for you to please just leave and go away.
 I never want to see your face again I pray and pray.
I'm tired of all the mind games you're so eager to play.
 Your torment and cruelty have caused my heart to decay.

I hope you're happy with the things you've done.
 Just so you know, for me, this wasn't fun.
From the moment I met you, my head screamed "Run!"
 I listened to my heart and it was the part of me that won.

If only I had listened to my head and not my stupid heart.
 I wouldn't have had my whole life ripped apart.
I should have walked away, I needed to depart.
 Instead you left me feeling lonely, angry, hollow and tart.


That Night

The moment when you held me 
When I really saw the purity in your words
When I heard the sadness in you’re tone
When you tried to seem okay 
But you were all broken 
When you gave me the words 
In no serious matter
As they sank deep inside me
I preserved the moment 
I kept it in me
I seized it into my heart
It was so true
I hugged you so deeply
You seemed so depressed
But you hugged me as well
You always were so funny and joketive 
You always were so happy and light
But as I saw you that night
You were so dull and dark 
You were so sad and miserable
You had a large weight on your shoulders
You worked so hard for everything
You admired every book you read
You gave me advice in every matter
You appreciated my writings unlike before
And you were just waiting for the moment 
It will all go away 
You were just waiting for you’re plead
To be answered
As I waved to you goodbye
And felt the coming tears falling from you’re eyes…
I left

I Am For Sale

I am for sale

I am for sale to overcome my problems
the price for me is not so huge 
Just a little bit more than you think

I am very eager to know my master
Who ever may be 
He is my master and he is my rescuer 

Every penny from that price is precious
I am at the gates of my house 
expecting my magnanimous boss

My wisdom and soul are his own properties
My fame and credits are his own credits
I want my new boss to buy me and
to get rid off from this worst hell

Twenty or thirty is not so huge 
it may be Dollors or Euros
I am My self selling 
As a wonder of  twenty first century 

Will any 
Kind hearted and generous come forward 
to buy me 
Before the poverty swallows my last piece

Alaskan Nights

I want to take a walk along the pier
I'll then drain out my eyes upon the shore
I wonder why he ever put me here

The sea - it seems to feel more than we dare
To manifest the lust it has for gore
I want to take a walk along the pier

Impossible it is my life to steer
A horse unbridled gallops all the more
I wonder why he ever put me here

A night of blackness is a cause for fear
Alaskan night. I do not know what for
I want to take a walk along the pier

And if that walk (I hope) is not so sheer
I'll ponder me down to the very core
I wonder why he ever put me here

To warn the masses that the end is near
And tell them heaven shut its narrow doors
I then will take a walk along the shore
And ponder why he ever put me here

I Am a Woman

I am a woman, and hatred is my middle name
The hate stubbed in me
By the person who should have loved me
The man so called Daddy

I am a woman, and hatred is my middle name
Who is never allowed to run free
Always compared, always asked to do his way
And even got my first love kicked out of our door

I am a woman, and hatred is my middle name
And life does not treat me well
Only leading me from one disappointment to another
Waiting for a hero to come and get me out of hell

I am a woman and hatred is my middle name
I found the hero, after 18 years of pain
But alas, he has chosen another woman
Instead of me, the first love of his

I am a woman and hatred is my middle name
I try so hard to hurt her for taking my hero
She who took my man's heart
The heart that should’ve been mine

Yet, the thing I don't realize, I hurt him more than her
Cause she is the light of his life and I have taken it from him
Making him a dead man walking with a big hole in his heart
A hole that I cannot fill since it belongs to her

I am a woman and hatred is my middle name
Now I am dying from my own cause
The stupidity of thinking and assuming
That I am hurting her when in fact I am killing myself.

The Rise and Fall

You and I, we together, rose above
And then with a crashing, we together fell
You showed me unconditional love
But now I live in pure hell

You took the time to make me see
And you widened my blind eyes
So that I could believe that someone could really truly love me
Family, friends, and God now put up with my cries

I'm left here to live my life without you
But do you really think you can just wish me away
I'm still in love with you, I and know you feel the same about me too
Can't keep those feelings pushed down, they have no where to go because they refuse to 
stray

One day you will come to find
My memory you just can't leave behind
And that love, true love, is not just how you make it, and it don't have to be blind
Open your heart and eyes, it's still me right there in the back of your mind

It's my voice that will forever haunt you in your dreams and reality
You will never be able to get away from the sounds of a woman that intensely loves only you
Time has seemed to have cast a spell over you, break it, break out of your fantasy
Once you clearly see it again, you will know what to do

Yes you and I, we together, did rise
And then with a crashing we did fall
Honest unconditional love is never in disguise
We can still have each other again, forever we can still have it all

This bumpy ride, it frightens me!
          The sun beats down upon my hide
              They've tied me up, we're on our way!
                      They said they're tossing me away!
As wind whips by, we're gaining speed
      My cries unheard, no voice to plead
           I'm swaying like a drunken fool
This old truck jars, with every turn
A fear in me as tires burn
     I'm pushed aside,
     They called me names
                         "Worn out, has seen much better days"
                          Outlived, they say, my days are done
         
Now disgraced
To be replaced
                  Forgotten that beneath my skin
                         Of peeling paint, of beaten face
                              A life in me, a charm within

This heartless deed, how can this be?...
       Please, won't you see the priceless me?
                   Beneath the grime, is treasured wood
                             A little care, restore my good!
I've seen so much in all my years
     Your child in laughter, yourself in tears
            And while you rocked, I soothed your fears
Tis not my fault that I've grown old
         While offering you a place to hold
            You bounced your child upon a knee
                Please hold a spot of care for me!

Don't dump me in among the muck
  Among the heap of worthless rot
       Have pity, please!!...forsake me not!
                 I'm worthy of a place, a part
                     A spot of mercy from your heart!
Please turn around, back to my home
I'll offer rest, for weary bones
When days are hard, and winter comes
I'll hold you up, when you're alone.

All I Wanted To Be Is Loved

He loved her more than life,
He wanted her to be his wife.

He begged her for one more day, 
To hear him out, what he had to say.
She said "I can’t talk, I'm busy, go away."

For she churned the witch's cauldron of lust,
As she gave herself freely to men without trust.
His heart turned to a cold lump of stone,
She was a foreigner and must be sent home.

He plotted her downfall with family that ruled boarders,
That issued her capture and deportation orders.
To take her to a place, she hated with all her heart,
Where she was born, to her beginning, her start.

 Her pictures were posted on all border control,
She would never wonder out of her country and her home.
He would keep her prisoner as she did him,
As he felt that neither of them should win.

She read the write, which denied her to be free,
And came to beg him to hear her plea.
She met a man with a stone face,
That said "I can’t talk, I’m busy, I have no time to waste."

She said "I will love you and you know it is true,"
"We promised each other, you belong to me and me to you."
Everything she built, owned in his land,
Crumbled to dust, fell at her feet in a heap of sand.

Love was the key and that is all he desired,
While she destroyed him and loved others she hired.
He said "Under different circumstances you could be right,"
"Take her from me out of my sight."

Now she knew that this time for certain’
Her life would be spent behind an iron curtain.

Shampoo and Beer

It has been so many years
You left without a word
I cried, I begged but you didn’t care
Many nights I reached for you
You weren’t there
I sit alone in a darkened room
The windows closed
The drapes drawn
A soft amber light glows in the corner
But it doesn’t cast shadows
The scent of shampoo and beer fills my senses
I remember your hair
The memory burnt in my mind decades ago
Brown and long
It was your scent
Shampoo and beer
It makes me think
Makes me remember
Our fist kiss
The summers in the sun
The times we made love
The leaves below us
The stars above
Our talks about having children 
Our lives together
How can the thought of you bring those memories back?
You left so long ago
All I have left are my dreams
And the scent that I know
The scent that I love
Shampoo and beer

The Sun Is Shining, But It's a Dark Day

I gave you my soul, I trusted you.
You inspire the things I do.
You made me feel warm with emotion
I gave you my life, I gave you devotion.

You know better than the rest.
I love you, I consider you the best
Everyone I have loved, I’ve lost.
Then let down by you, I’m chilled like frost.

Such a gutting feeling deep with-in
To break my cord with you feels a sin
You swore that you wouldn’t let me fall
Maybe I don’t have a Spirit guide at all?

Empty oaths from your very heart
I feel I need to begin from the very start 
Why did you promise such things?
Now I see you my angel, with no wings

Loosing my faith, I’ve lost my way
Not caring where I am or the time of day
Nan, it’s not the chapters you insisted would be
Let down by many. All alone now, that I see

Maybe I should take part of the blame?
Perhaps I’m an idiot to think of promised fame?
You have hurt me deep in my soul
Bruised and hurt, I’ll never be whole.

My core aches and will continue to do so.
One more hit from you and it will be the final blow.
Cards and emotions tucked away for sure
Please leave me be, I cant take this any more :-(


*Mary/John, please prove me wrong!
