Premium Member Holy Lord
As the living water
Moves within streams 
falling down from the mountain source 

Baptising love in crystal light 
With burning flames inside the soul 
For keeps each word holds reverence to your name...

For Keeps
what you have given me
something I can hold on to
a dream I can keep
it belonged to you
for a short while
now moving away
as life gets in the way
a love I can look back on
savoring in my heart
what could have been...

You are the star you wish to reach
Stars do not fly higher than yourself
Nor are they above you.......
You already are a star and the dream
you wish to reach.........
You are a dreamer, a star.....
You are for keeps!...

Souls For Keeps
Cheap self now
Afford self-doing
Vulgar to so after-
Mass-ive tumor
That is eating,
And beating this needing
Eyes cries for the lies
Stained in youth drains
These young veins
Falsehood tyrants rule
Over peons passed
Loveliness lives like loneliness...

Angel of Gaurdian
Watch over all in need
To carry us when all
 Hope seems to fail
To get past the hills 
That seem so steep
To cherish all memories
 Save for keeps
Leading us to be the best we can be
Back to just watching over me
No longer needing carried
So i can help
 The next one in need...

Premium Member For Keeps
Good morning, morning, it's a brand new day
The sun is shining, I'm on my way
To writing brand new poetry
Just for you, no one else can see
Or know what's in my heart but you
It's open, you can see right through
And test the waters with your own
Mine's for you, it's not on loan...

Midsummer Warning
August is sunburn and moonlight
August's a menace to men.
When the casual canoer discovers l'amour,
August has done it again.

August is moonlight and sunburn,
When the bachelor sows as he reaps.
His sunburn just might finally unburn,
But he's burned in the moonlight for keeps....

The Things You Ask of Me
Like childhood friends 
Remember me
The times were but good
A domain of innocence 
Grant me peace
A haven we can each see
Join me, feast
The inquiry's of this 
Untainted beast
A single forfeited lease 
I beg of you 
To see forth fit
Endeavored we be 
But as grown men are haunted
We’ll play for keeps...

Premium Member Your Father's Arms
O child, not meant to end this way, Thy perfect limbs, so disarrayed; So fearful, wondrous made you are, Then swept away, but not the scar. My heart does break, my spirit weeps, A mother's bond should be for keeps. No longer can the world bring harm, Rush swiftly to your Father's arms.

Your Future Home
A quiet place
A place of love
And so much grace
It’s heaven above

Beauty surrounds 
And Light enfolds
Peace is your carpet
And joy is for keeps

Worship and praise
Holding your hands
Shouting Hallelujah 
In time with the bands

Singing no sighing
Truth and no lying 
Safety and comfort 
This your future home...

Play For Keeps
Scents in air 
Stiff and stale 
Eyes of devil 
Skin so pale 

Moves so swift 
Can't catch me 
Turn the corner 
Then I see 

Close my eyes 
Horror to feel 
Knowing it's there 
Evil so real 

Chills on bones 
Wind stands still 
Voice of terror 
Coming to kill 

Claws for shredding 
Hooves dug deep 
Hard to breathe 
Soul to keep...

Premium Member You Gave, Then You Took It Away
To explain your actions, what can I say? First, you give it to me; then you take it away. That’s a strange way to act any day. Your odd behavior sometimes gives me the creeps. I thought your love was something for keeps. Perhaps you will never know what you did to me. It all may continue to be a big mystery.

Kissing Me
Hey! step back
Hey! step closer
let me, take a breath 

your, messing up my heart 
your, messing up my first-steps 

and my head can't
tell the rest of me 

STOP! wait, your over your head 
and this is just a kissing game 
and this isn't for keeps 

he just wants
to take you goodies

so, keep his hands above 
and off the Wees  (knees...)...

Killing Is For Keeps
They turn me on and let me go,
the floor is soaked in blood.
Remnants of what once was life,
is bathed inside the flood.
Wickedness is overcome,
two wrongs here do make right.
Has the death of one within the day.
keeps alive a house by night.
This is what I'm to forget,
this is when I sleep.
But they'll be back again tonight,
cause killing is for keeps......

Premium Member My Heart
People say that
finder’s keepers
I wonder if that
applies to my heart
as well?

Apparently you found
it on a pavement
on the corner of
here and there...

The best part of the deal?
You seem to know
how to take care of it...

because I’m careless
with this heart of mine... 
I wonder 
what that means?

Do I ever get it back
or does that mean
it’s yours for keeps?...

Premium Member For Keeps
 She wanted to break up
 He wanted to play for keeps
 Had she missed the red flags
 That could cause her grief

 Some people just can't let go
  They may even get violent 
 when someone breaks up with them
 She will have a restraining order to show

 He might stalk her for a while
 As in the shadows he creeps
 Sadly, in the game of love
 Some want to play for keeps!
