My Dancing Love

Come to me my dancing love
I have waited oh so patiently
Que in the Cha Cha my darling
Waltz your way towards me   

Set the music in burning fire  
Bring your Salsa closer to me
Tango your body around me
And release the Rumba in you

Hidden Desires

My fantasies are lost;
Into the wild I could not chase.
Closing my eyes, I desired for your touch.
I felt your fingers running through my hair.
I shivered to your soft lips touching my skin.
I longed for your kisses.

Drawing me closer and closer,
A vision of flaming red sheets in the air -
I followed your scent.
In your black, rolled up, half buttoned shirt and jeans,
You light the burning fire in me.

And into your blue eyes, I fully submit.
You pulled and pushed me; walls against my back.
Sending chills once more, your face touched my cheek;
I heard your silent whispers of want.

You grabbed my hair and our hearts raced.
Without a beat skipped, I drowned.
To your vigorous, passionate kiss; I responded.
To your soft, powerful touch; I melted.
To your breaths, I surrendered.

The Fade of Silence

I have not seen it all
I have however, heard them 
I heard their voices
I heard their laughter
I heard their cries
I heard them speak 
From corners to corners
I heard them dancing
I heard them singing
I heard them call for the skies
I heard them seek 
For a solace of every form
I heard them all
.
.
.
Then I heard nothing

Taking Chances

Late of '56, a run through time I'll take
In your sweet blue shorts and top       
You stopped my time and said
"Mister, a ticket for 1 if you please
I have this night all for myself,      
So I'm taking my chances".     

And I stood till the night ends, 
At the front door of the movies
Hoping you'd notice, 
The silly brown eyed man in me.

So here I am taking my chances,
Walked straight right up and said
"I hope you don't mind,
but you stopped my time for a while, 
and I know this is silly, 
But lady if you'd let me, 
may I walk you home?".

Time came, I knew you well
You held my hand and stayed
Here we are taking our chances
Hoping they'd do the same

(country lyric)

There Will Be Blood

A thousand years ago My children’s children bore life Indeed, silence they have brought But silence they have slain And they swam oceans and seas Journeyed through the sands Stopped by the shadows And lit no light I watched my children’s children Bore another life And I prayed to the suns and moons As the sky dances to its tunes My prayers begun as I begged “Do not undo time, do not slay my sons My daughters will bear children You shall soon see light” And my prayers were heard But a price I must pay “You will watch your children Bathe on your own blood” And a thousand years later My children stopped at none I watched them part ways I watched them day and night They drenched to each other’s blood They made love to one another’s wife Raising soldiers from sons Bathing daughters to be brides But a parent could only bare such Questioning one’s own love Seeking answers never to be found Sleepless nights to endless thoughts And I stood between two paths Calling from the sands of time Summoning all ashes and bones Rise, my sleeping warriors of just

To a New Beginning

Such a start of a new journey     
To the excitement of burning love
To the thrill of awaiting adventures
We cheered to moments of sweet whispers

To the late night stops by the gas stations
To all the road trips and few hours of sleeps
To the fireworks of how young the nights were                               
We cheered to the moments the time froze   

To the days we yearned for each others hugs                                 
To the cold nights we hoped for each others warmth
To the memory we longed to travel back to
We teared to each others lost promises

To when our dreams travelled too far
To a land where words don't mean anymore
To where we left our echoed voices
To a land where we once stood
We cheered to a new beginning.

My Mysterious Boyfriend

Ring, ring, ring ~ my phone rang in the middle of the night I picked it up, my voice as pale as a ghost so white "Melissa, it's Jason...meet me at the park in half an hour" My boyfriend of 3 years, what could he want this very hour? I wasted not a moment, I'm set and grabbed my keys I hurried down the stairs and nearly fell on my knees I'm nervous as hell, couldn't stop wondering of what's going on On my way, I prayed "Lord, let this be of light's dawn". I made it just in time, I saw him standing by a tree I walked closer, my face full of questions deeper than a sea He stared at me with eyes so silent, his body in a freeze I searched his mind but nothing to find, I felt the wind's cold breeze. He reached for my hand and handed me a piece "Open it Melissa, please...Don't let my warm heart miss, A smile of yours, or tears that I someday may no longer see" I shed tears of yes as he went on his knee... "Happy Anniversary, Will You Marry Me?"

Come Home

I’ve got a funny story here	
I want to share it with you
You see, there’s this little girl I know
Met her just on the outside of town
She said lady will you walk with me
I’m lost and please help me
I don’t know which way to go
Can’t find my mom and dad and bro
And I said,

Someone once walked this 
path with me and she’s not here anymore
So before I let go, let me walk this path with you

We held hands and she heard me say,
Where have I run all these years?
Where have I gone all these years?
Seems I have nowhere else to go
Seems I don’t know when to let go
Will it be alright if I come home?

She tightly held my hand and whispered,
Lady I’ll walk this path with you
So come on and don’t let go
We'll walk and we’ll take it slow
You walk with me and I'll walk with you

We held hands and she heard me say
Where have I run all these years?
Where have I gone all these years?
Seems I have nowhere else to go
Seems I don’t know when to let go
Will it be alright if I come home?

This is my stop now, lady
Now it’s time for me to go
I’ll be alright now, this is my home
Now it’s time for you to go 
It’s alright if you don’t let go
Your heart will know when it’s time to go
And I said

Where have I run all these years?
Where have I gone all these years?
Seems I have nowhere else to go
Seems I don’t know when to let go
Will it be alright if I come home? 

Oh, where have I run all these years?
Where have I gone all these years?
Seems I have nowhere else to go
Seems I don’t know when to let go
Will it be alright if I come home?

Forsaken

One do not seek what brightness cannot reach
And one do not speak what words cannot preach
And not a class of his own has rights of one's speech
So shall rightness be gain to each of his own beseech.
 
To be of innocent reasoning, a soulful cannot deny
What words of heart and deeds of rights can comply
And so to one's joy of cry, to another a tearful decry
And to what it may seem, many have tried but gone awry.
 
So to say forth, a character shall never do
To seek of matters where it shan't be accrue
A forsaken wisdom we livings threw
And what to not hold is a challenge to not redo.

Daddy

Into the light Daddy...
Please give me your trust.
Hold my hand tightly Daddy...
I wont let you shower with dust.

I miss you so much Daddy...
How I wish you're walking me down the aisle,
Your little girl's a Mom now Daddy..
A boy named after you, I wish you could see his first smile.

Walk this path with me Daddy...
I promise you the road is much better.
And don't worry about me Daddy...
You taught me a lot, thank you for being the best father.

I know you are safe now Daddy...
But it still hurts now that you are gone.
I still cry a lot and wishing for your hugs Daddy...
I'm sorry for all the pain, 
I will always love you, My Daddy.
