On Waratah Nights

I sit in the dark, as far off 
the scent of Waratah wafts
reminding me of you,


my mouth curves
a memory, as my face tilts
the moon, her red veils
run up my chest


faraway down the road
we may meet again
across a canyon of time,


our eyes will connect


I often wonder what yours
will dare tell me,
at the first dawning
will a ray of remembrance
burst through your iris


or will our words of anger
sour every glance,
turning those blue eyes
opaque


I live in wonder, 
I breathe forgiveness 
and only god knows
who you are anymore


but the waratah, ever blooms
of you and sickle moons 
in my smiles


so hope lives 
on the whispered sense of night,


and maybe only in my heart

My life

My life is my life
It’s not yours so I can’t do what you want me to do 
I have to live for me and live my dreams
Who knows when I’ll take my last breath?
I want my life to be full of dreams and success 
I might come off mean but I’m doing the best I can
I can’t allow anyone to change the route I have for myself
Life can be hard and sometimes people make it harder
I have to find a way to work smarter
You think they love you but then they eventually show they only wanted to use you
They never cared about you 
I’m always going to make myself my number one priority 
These men don’t love me
My life is my life
I’m going to be alright
I make the decisions for myself because all I got is myself

A Sickness To Which I Am the Cure

You poisoned my heart
My beautiful, 
Beautiful heart
Your sickly mouth
Coated with venom
spouting words meant to disarm 
And your heart
Pumps
Black oil through your
Veins
You only thirst for the taste of revenge, 
But yours is a thirst that will never be quenched
And
Still you remain
Seeking opportunities to plant
Seeds of doubt in
My mind
You once had a way with words
That could distort
The truth
You shape shifter, chameleon liar
I dedicated my life to bettering you
But
You
Oh you 
You poisoned my heart,
To which forgiveness was once a part
Feverishly I sweat
For months I would cough up all of my regrets
The paintbrush and my poetry
Was the cure for all of your misery
And your sickly mouth
Can do no more damage to me.

Premium Member Anything Goes On a Sunday

As I claim my own parcel of solitude
from yesterday's banging boom,
I see heaven expanding through you
in me: fireflies  glow  rare as Sunday’s bliss,
never mind if there is a call for patience
when holy hours rise upon the lines of your mouth;
resting on the ledge of a private oasis.
This I cannot enter... the night curfew drifts
gently and quietly yet  full of love's spaces;
O the  hush of your mouth tender as harp's rhythm
I want to kiss.
        
     My parcel of quietude becomes yours
while we listen to the same monastic silence,
gazing at clouds alone and  together
until we rest lovingly inside our gentle, holy world.

Into near midnight with eyes closed, we slumber    and then...

Not Set Up For Failure

"Not set up for failure"

(Verse1)
This is my life(let me live it)
You judging before you could hear it
You never tried to listen to my song
And every time i say something 
Its always wrong(wrong)
You only flipped through one page 
Not a chapter 
And you didn't summarize 
No you're after (after)
You still haven't tried to find the truth trying to hurt me there's no use 
No matter what another one may sell ya
Know that im not set up for failure

(Chorus)
Opinions they dont even matter
Its even sadder(even sadder)
Trying to climb
Climb that ladder (ladder)
I will succeed
Dont you get madder
I just want to tell ya
The way my life set up
Its not set up for failure (failure)

(Verse2)

Spent to much time on this earth
Pleasing people and it really hurts(hurts)
Knowing that some people will not understand 
That before i was born 
I was already in the plan
My talk may be different than yours
But we the same 
So when i want success
Why do we complain
We should root eachother on 
Be one anothers strength
We can all be strong 
Stop downing one another all day long (long)
Listen now or you may
It can be clever
I am set up but not for failure

(Chorus)

Opinions they dont even matter
Its even sadder(even sadder)
Trying to climb
Climb that ladder (ladder)
I will succeed
Dont you get madder
I just want to tell ya
The way my life set up
Its not set up for failure (failure)


Stop dwelling on the past
Its your life 
Just make it last
You can do it
All you got to do is put your mind to it 
Playing the perfect song
We are much better 
Whether right or wrong
Falling on and off the tracks
Gotta reclaim get your life back
Listen to me im trying to tell ya 
Im not set up for failure

Chorus)
Opinions they dont even matter
Its even sadder(even sadder)
Trying to climb
Climb that ladder (ladder)
I will succeed
Dont you get madder
I just want to tell ya
The way my life set up
Is not set up for failure (failure)

Repeat until chorus fades

Premium Member Prayer

Pure and perfect praise of yours pleases Him
A proven precept that provides peace and pleasure.

The priest’s persistent preaching is propitiated 
Pains and problems of the perturbed are placated.

Prayer is the best panacea of all perils and panics.
Hold out palms and perform pleas to Him profusely.

Pours pity from paradise on the pathetic people
The prodigious God perceives the prayers we proffer.

Penance and praising of Him presents us prowess
Pray the paramount power and beg to protect us.

Partying In Heaven

Born in nineteen forty four
We met when I was sweet sixteen
We found true love forevermore
My precious love ~ my soulmate

Spending our whole life together
With precious son ~ our only one
Then creeping like inclement weather
The Big C came it knew your name

You were so strong you were so brave
You fought just like a warrior
But in the end the evil stayed
It drained you and it claimed you

When on that day you went away
December two thousand and eight
My heart it almost broke in two
Life alone ~ no life without you

Born today St Patrick's Day
You will be seventy seven
And I am sure behind that door
They’ll be partying in heaven

I raise a glass of your favourite red
Chateauneuf du Pape
Thank you for your endless love
My darling
My soulmate
My sweetest chap

Happy Birthday to my dear husband Frank who left this world too soon...

Premium Member God Honors Your Pain

God’s tears line up with yours in solidarity
Some might think it is a gloomy day.
The rain brings you peace, for it brings unity
You feel one with this gray universe

I see but keep my thoughts to myself
Letting you bask in the rain you have earned
God’s gift to you, to revitalize and refresh 
Feelings that may need to be taken out and listened to

The forecast may seem bleak to others
I know better
I know this is the day you ordered
To suit your mood

God sees your pain and honors it
He knows sunshine would be blatantly disrespectful
You are alone in your thoughts, strumming a guitar 
Singing lyrics too beautiful to share

Premium Member Absolute Surrender

Absolute Surrender


A world that we live in,
Belonging to desires, is it a sin ?
Can we escape its illusive grandeur ?
Do we mean profession or amateur ?
Eternal truth of life we all know,
False relations, emotions and all ego,
Gather courage and accept the fact,
Holistic approach and you are on the track,
Introspect certain letters of credence ?
Joys will multiply, feel His essence,
Kindness and truth show His way,
Love and affection do always pay,
Meaningful should be a life you live,
Nevertheless it's a take and give,
Only if you could send some sunshine,
Perfect you will get the brewed wine,
Quantum of goodness has no measure,
Reciprocate passion and then treasure,
Soul to soul links if you can build,
Then world is yours in just one blink,
Universe will appear as a melody,
Vibrant beings His unique parody,
What if He is the greatest musician ?
Xylophone, kids can percuss better than a physician,
Your being can be a perfect eonian wonder,
Zest in heart and lyrics in head, if to Him you absolutely surrender !
