Life I miss you dear
For my time, it nears
I know you think
You’ve preached
And I did not hear
But I am now here
And with in my most
Towering moments
I can not help
But to be sincere
For when hours become
Too long for days
And days seem to
Outstretch our years
Out in the clear
Fate seems to come
As it appears
I reached out
For those
Who would not respond
I look here and beyond
When there was no one
To be fond of
Missing hours beneath the sun
Days have become long
And less fun
With no where to run
Soon I will be done
How can I be peaceful
When I take two steps here
And get knocked back six steps there
Nothing more to reach for
For quiet times
I questioned my blessings
Outwitted suicide
Residing to stressing
To visualize
Our opponents in the making
Days, this life
It’s here for the taking
I see through the souls of men
My near awaking
I’m home but I’m not
I’m in your arms but
I will soon be forgot
Could you hold me still
If I rested my thoughts
Should I take you there
Would you even inhale our air
Fore these seasons I donot care
A homeless man
With casual intensions
Please be ware
Form:
Just when you think memories die
They say your life flashes before your eyes
Silent nights
Scripts of peace in a new born life
Hunger in days
Taken back less for what poverty weighs
A couple visits to I-C-U
Now as a ghost I see you
Pain inhabits reflection
My anger and aggression
Smiles and faces
child’s and different races
In my final poem
I lay it down a mercenary
Look to heaven with no commentary
Double jeopardy
A sinner plagued with leprosy
Broken jewels
In hands of an innocent man
It's going to be a little blood shed
For the faces that weren't fed
Walk as mortals on the day of the dead
Even in God's hands there’s a little bloodshed
My love of poetry started when I was still a five- year old child
When my parents asked me to memorize verses and rhymes
With all my feelings and actions, I recited my poems in front of a crowd
Innocently receiving adulations but not a handful of dime
The first piece I memorized was entitled, “Cradle Hymn”
I was a small girl sent in a poem competition, so naïve
When I’ve grown up , I realized it’s a song lyric with Christmas theme
So, I sang it and started to develop my good voice quite a bit
When I was a teenager, I memorized speech and declamation pieces
My teacher sent me in a poem contest for a campaign against drug addiction
I tried to deliver my piece like a candidate for a star award actress
Acting like a drug addict teenage girl longing for parents’ love and attention
As years went by, I turned out to be quite a flirty lady
With puppy love and sweet crushes to some guys around me
When one of them got me, so happy until I forgot all about reciting poetry
Relationship went long but when we broke up, it created another life’s story
All my heart brokenness has turned me out to be a poem writer
I also wrote few poems for my family, dreams and for close friends’ requests
My passion of poetry blazed and turned out to be greater
When I found a writing spot, motivated and inspired by my friends-the great poets

Vulnerable-Song Lyric
I see you across the room
trying to hide all of your glances
It's like you want to tell me whats
on your mind
but you're afraid of taking chances
I know what it is your thinking
cos, I've thought about it too
but...is the distance that has grown
between us, still too great for you?
Oh, I can see the moonlight shining
lighting up the starry sky
Maybe the moonlight can shine bright enough
to make your heart beat again with mine
I'm still here watching and waiting
underneath that very same moon
Wondering if all that I'm feeling is
the same as you are too
chorus
Oh how wonderful it would be
for us to be so brave
To take one little step outside of our
dark emotional caves
Isn't the silence we have shared so long
been enough for you?
Isn't it time to throw away our pride
and say... I'm vulnerable too
Wouldn't it just be so wonderful
for us both to say... I'm vulnerable.
repeat chorus.

The words are swirling today. They are gleeful and happy and kind-feeling.
I am lying in a little stupor after taking a sleeping pill that knocked me out for ten hours.
And I am watching the words whirling and curling and floating ever so gently in a cloud formation,
Not so high that I cannot reach them, for I can. I smile at them, knowing they can be used for fun.
They can cajole,
They can tease,
They can delight,
They can irritate,
They can play,
They can exude serious,
They can teach, torment, and terrify.
Words, glorious words, in the hands of writers, poets, singers, and dreamers.
Wow!
How wonderful, thrilling, and toe-curling!
I stretch my toes, my feet, get a charley horse.
Ow! Ow! Ow!
Jump out of bed, make myself a fat, happy, roast beef sandwich, snag a bag of chips and an ice tea.
Run outside to feed Shark, the cat, who lives out there in a cozy, covered, hot-platted igloo,
And sit down at this typewriter.
Where to start?
How about now!
Once again! I feel love in my heart.
Love's just givin' me a start.
Brings me up when I'm down.
Lifts me higher off the ground.
Sends me soaring through the air.
Runs my fingers through your hair.
Once again!
Once again!
I feel love in my heart.
Tells me you're my shining star.
Kind of brightens up my day.
Seems to be the only way.
Seems to always carry through.
Now our love is shining through.
Once again!
Once again!
Once again! I feel love in my heart.
Love's just givin' me a start.
Brings me up when I'm down.
Lifts me higher off the ground.
Sends me soaring through the air.
Runs my fingers through your hair..
Once again!
Once again!
Once again!

pray for ME---
Maybe I’m a sinner
Pray for me
Maybe I am saved
Pray for me
Maybe I’m a winner
Stay with me
Keep me in your memory
As I breathe
Do you yet believe?
That we are free, yes free
Maybe I’m a criminal
Pray for me
Maybe I don’t deserve love
Pray for me
Maybe I’m an abomination
Maybe I don’t deserve living
In a mansion that lies on streets of gold
I was told
I was told maybe I’m a sinner
I was told Pray for me
I was told maybe I am saved
I was told Pray for me
I was told maybe I’m a winner
Stay with me, I was told
Keep me in your memory, I was told
As I breathe
Do you yet believe?
That I am, I shall be free, yes I’m free
Still yet won’t you please?
Pray for ME

He's free as the breeze, He's always at ease
He lives in the jungle and hangs by his knees
as he swings through the trees without a trapeze
In his B.V.D.'s
He's got a union card and he's practicing hard
to play the guitar.
Gonna be a big star, yeah, he's gonna go far
and carry moon beams home in a jar
He ordered Chet's Guitar course C.O.D.
Makes "A" and "E" and he's working on "B"
Digs "C" and "W" and "R" and "B"
And me and the chimpanzee agree
that one day soon he will be a celebrity.
He's got a girl named Jane with no last name
Kinda homely and plain but he loves her just the same
Cuz she kindles a flame and it drives him insane
When he hears her sing, she really does her thing.
Well, they got a pet monkey.
He likes to get drunky
and sing boogie woogie and it sounds real funky.
On Saturday night they need some excitement
Jane gets right and the monkey gets tight
And their voices unite in the pale moonlight
And it sounds all right, yeah, it's dynamite, it's out of sight
Let's hear it right.....now!

Broke the bank yesterday on my brand new ride,
Bright midnight blue with golden yellow sides,
Bringin’ it home for me and my baby to drive;
Breakin’ outa here.
Can’t let the bad boys take us alive;
Ride, ride, ride...
Bad boys are rippin’ up this rundown town,
Ridin’ ‘round in Fairlaines bringing everybody down.
I take my baby’s hand in the early dawn, she smiles and hides a yawn,
We’re gonna take a ride ‘round these dusty old streets.
We’re gonna feel the heat.
Ride, ride, ride...
We gotta rev it up in this rundown town;
We gotta cut it loose before we set it on down.
Break outa here.
Run.
We gotta ride on outa this falling down town,
Gotta rip up the air before we put her back down,
Cause there ain’t much goin’ in this broken down town,
Breakin’ outa here,
Just half a mile of heartache sittin’ around.
Run, run, run...
Punch it.
And we gotta ride on outa this broken down town,
We’re gonna lose our souls if we settle on down,
We’re gonna drown.
We gotta rev it up in this rundown town;
We gotta cut it loose before we set it on down.
We’re gonna lose our souls if we settle on down.
Breakin’ outa here
Before we crash and drown.
Run, run, run...
[Based on Elton John's 'One Horse Town']
riding on a cloud of evil
surfing the whirlwinds of disaster
i think you ought to know
I'm running on E
come and bury me
lily pads
fingertips
peace at last
we children
of deceitful past
we greet the hours
as our last
hidden behind
a fabricated past
i was five
on a sleeping pad
riding on a cloud of evil
surfing the whirlwinds of disaster
i think you ought to know
i'm running on E
come and bury me
math was a problem
i rarely laughed
when to be sincere
meant to become entrapped
we were once as you
a figment of truth
awaiting filth
guilt came equally
as the fever was intangible
"smoke will rise
intentions will fall
the pains intense
but for all that you have done to me
i feel i must repay you
if i can not have peace
no one will"
