But, I won't let you in.
No, no.
The chamber of my heart is closed.
But 'knock, knock' you say.

A huge 'liquidation' sign hung,
For months...

SPIRITUALLY INTERRUPTED.

I CAME TO EARTH WITH 
EVERYTHING IN TACT.
I was happy curious and 
with rapid anxiety.

He let the demons come in
He knew her rare value
Beautiful soul in front of him

We were filled with hope for peace and love in the 60’s
but how quickly that hope would decline
as our dreams and wishes turned to ashes by the end of 1969.

But 51 years ago today our...

When I die
I hope the father in heaven knows I’ve tried 
I lived life to the best
Even with all the trife
Not knowing all the answers
To every question

Breathe you in to me.


Words belong to us all; my feelings are yours to take.
I no longer have the strength to put up a wall,
So you are free to ruin me in your own special...

Winners do not quit; and quitters do not win.
I once read a story of a middle ages warrior
who was being held prisoner.  While in prison,
he observed an ant seeking to carry a grain

For years I was so hurt inside,
I blamed myself for your suicide,
If only I took more time to care,

You poured your heart out on the table,
Said you couldn't deal...

To be happy we still have choices
And bark in our hunting dog voices

All from different nests
Somewhat similar attacks
Groupie pundits pushin'...

But where should I start?

Cause this type of spaceship

And those don’t just go away. 
You don’t understand what I’ve felt....

It is bruised, broken and shattered
From the awful way you battered
It to pieces blow by blow
I wish you could only know
How you cut me...

Fires of love burned high and were so aglow.
Then some things transpired snuffing out the flame,
Now the fire seems gone, things are not the same.
