Love Doesn'T Conquer All

Love doesn’t always conquer all
Sometimes it’s just not enough
Feeling you slip away from me
More and more each day
Into an oblivion where I just couldn’t reach you
I do not understand
This illness that steals you
And keeps your heart closed to mine
I thought I could save you
But it wouldn’t let you go
I wanted to protect you
A love to have and to hold
Such a fool was I
It was stronger than me
Keeping you distant and cold
A love lost that could never be
And now I am alone
Now I stand alone

Nothing Really Matters

Nothing really matters
Until I look into your eyes
And that boyish grin
Takes me to places I’ve never been
Holding you close
Your warm heart beating close to mine
Lifts my soul up
Beyond space and time
Carry me away to worlds
That are far away from here
A place where Godless souls
Can never get near
To a Paradise, our Heaven
Where only Love prevails
And we can be together, forever
Like a boat we shall sail
On a course to a life
Filled with Love and beauty
The music of our souls
Intertwined into infinity

Fake Hippie

fake hippie

you call yourself a hippie
but hippies are all about love
and all you really know about
mmm, are all the drugs

you're really good at your music
and growing your hair out long
but you can't even look at me
unless you're holding your bong

ooh, fake hippie
who are you trying to fool
fake hippies
you've forgotten the Golden rule

so you know about the peace sign
and walking a police line
but you keep running from love
because you put yourself above..everyone else

and you don't think you need me
but someday you're gonna see
after you've gotten all fat and bald
you can't even get no more booty calls

awe you fake hippie
what are you trying to prove
you fake hippies
you'll be forgotten like yesterday’s news..yes you will

He's My Heroine

He's My Heroine

he doesn't let the sun shine in
he sits alone in his room with Zeplin
he closes the door to his heart, yeah
and doesn't let me in

addicted to the feelings I get when I'm alone with him
desperation when I cannot have him
feening for the drug that is him, yeah
I'm having withdrawals without him

escaping the presence, forgetting the past
devotion to the high I know can never last
he is my heroine, heroine
yeah, he is my heroine

feeling the tourniquet of love
squeezing the life right outta me
turning the page on another memory, yeah
someone please take me outta this misery

wasting away until tomorrow
'till nothing's left but pain and sorrow
when he becomes my personal Jesus, yeah
killing my feelings until there's nothing left
escaping the presence, forgetting the past
devotion to the high I know can never last
he is my heroine, heroine
yeah, he is my heroine

allowing him to destroy me
I need a treatment for this high
he doesn't answer my messages, yeah
and my heart begins to die

love is the most dangerous drug
the chemical imbalance unto death
it shatters the heart, yeah
and leaves an ugly hole in your chest

Damned Love

Staring hard at what I wish I had
Just one more time
Sucking your body
My teeth in your flesh
Pressing you into me
Our bodies enmeshed
Into a love knot I feel in my mind
Dreaming that reality was not so unkind
I’m a lover, I’m a poet, and a smartass
Don’t you know it
I like my beer and my fun
But my love is forever son
I promise you that

Paperclip My Heart

Paperclip My Heart

I think we're all a little crazy
letting others bring us down
you're fine but I'm crying
my role is always the clown

yeah men treat me bad
always breaking my heart
I think of all the loves I've had
and how innocent they seemed at the start

so the next time I meet a man
and  start to fall in love again
I'll pull out a paperclip heart
and pin it to my chest instead

paperclip my heart
since love is so temporary
paperclip my heart
treat it like a sanctuary

I'm always falling down and getting hurt
just like a little child
I was never taught to fear love
the Lord put His purity in my heart

I've never understood why people hate
they hit, they cheat, they want to hurt me
when all I ever did was try to love them
their love turns to hate and then they leave

I want a man to love me
as much as I love him
to take a vow and mean it
and always treat me like his queen

paperclip my heart
since love is so temporary
paperclip my heart
treat it like a sanctuary

Ginger Hair

Ginger Hair
Sinister boy of ginger hair
Your cloak of darkness
Keeps me entangled in its lair
There are layers of hate, coldness, and black
Encircling a heart filled
With cobwebs and snake
I try to run but something holds me back
Green jewels of eyes
Like those of a great lake
His voice is tender as that of a dove
Lulling me to sleep so tender, so loved

Love Addiction

if you want him
then go get him
hating me 
doesn't solve
your problem
I want to be
a man's priority
not just his option
Bridget Jones's Diary
is the story 
of my life
until you get to the part
about finding Mr. Right
searching for Mr. Big, Mr. Darcy, and Hugh
has left me
downtrodden, empty, and blue
does my prince exist
or is he just fiction
I need to break
this freaking love addiction

Dario

saying good-bye to a love I once knew
realizing it's time to move on and find someone new
letting go of the feelings....devotion, love, obsession
just to name a few
is one of the hardest things I'll ever have to do
but do it I must, for the time has come
to forget about the loneliness, the pain, and the lust
I fell in love with you and all that you are
but you kept me at a distance and far, so very far
I am sorry that it took me so long to see
that a relationship with you and I could never be
I tried several times to walk away, something like three
but you told me you cared and didn't want to lose me
when someone is loyal to you and feels so much attraction
they will look for any excuse to keep that attachment
yearning for your caress, feeling so much passion
all I ever wanted was to shower you with love and affection
I guess I was looking for courtship and not just copulation
and all you were willing to give was pleasure and sexual satisfaction
even so, I will still cherish each moment spent with you, my beloved
but I guess I'm not so lovable and not destined to ever keep a husband
so I will remember your tenderness no matter how brief
and try to block out my disappointment and grief
I love you, Dario, and was happy to have known you
I'm giving up now on my humiliation, embarrassment, and loneliness
I wish you the best success in all that you do
and remember there once was a girl named Evelyn who loved you

Sword

Sword
I dream of clawing red lines
Down you’re back of lily white snow
Of your tender shoulder and throat
I love your naughtiness, your vanity, your shame
And running fingers furtively through
Your red lion’s mane
Hating myself for loving you
As you stab me repeatedly
Your sword of lust and pain so hard and shrewd
Both night and day
Even as it brings me death
As surely as I lay
