Goodbye My First Love

To my lover from long ago,
 You were the one to set my heart aglow
 I wish I wasn't so young back then
 When I knew so little of men
 Hurt and pain was all I could see
 Hence twas only heartache that could be
 You with your scruffy hair
 And clothes worn threadbare
 As u went thru life with seemingly hardly a care
 Your lovely mischievous smile
 Was blessed to know you, if just for a while
 
 To heal every woe you dearly tried,
 Through many days I continuously cried.
 Thank you for all the tears you dried,
 When with life I could hardly cope.
 Thank you for holding out on hope.
 Thank you for holding me so close,
 As my darkness upon me did impose.
 
I pray you never let your dreams die
 That you let you soul free to fly
 That with the seasons passing by
 U know the best in your future does lie
 
I'm so glad to have known you true
 Even though I was mostly so blue
 You and your brainy head
 And all the books you have read
 Days spent on the beach
 As in each other we did beseech
 Long walks under skies azure
 So many memories mostly a blur
 
I'm so sorry I hurt you so
 And hope that you have truly let go
 That I don't as a shadow hover
 As you attempt to trust another
 To give your absolute all
 And leave the pasts shrieking call
 
Thankyou for everything
 For all the love you did bring
 Thank you for loving me
 And helping me set myself free :)

A Nomads Life

Maybe the life of a nomad is for me
To always let my spirit be free
Accept homelessness as the steady state of things
As each new adventure in my life begins
Change the swirling river I need to sail
As in each direction I again do fail
Living from my car day to day 
As with different friends I do stay
Being a nomad in a so very, modern way   
Hardly conventional is all I can say
Sam my dear little, silver battered car
Been the most stable thing in my life thus far
Forgotten by many but perhaps a few
What's wrong with me, I haven't a clue
Can it be I'm always so wrong
Maybe tis tru I just don't belong

To find my place ill keep on trying
E'en though I stumble continuously crying
But I know to truly overcome to succeed
Tis my soul I must nourish and feed
Resilience must become my middle name
As I play life's vicious mind locked game
Though from others I'm so far apart
My roots belong deep in my heart
Homelessness just a current state of mind
As I search in vain for my own kind
I've so many mysteries of life to unwind
My destiny to to go out and find
Maybe the nomads life is for me
A rolling stone forever to be
For now ill keep moving and wait to see.

Gods Beauty

I thank your dearly god for all the days
 You've shown us beauty in so many ways
 The crimson sun against the smoky sky
 The speckles of villages from mountains high
 When everything is covered with a film of dust
 Painting your trees 'n shrubs with a film of rust
 September's trees in warm attire all flush
 As they cover their bareness in quite a rush
 The fires that creep over the hills at night
 A pretty red rope is all that's in sight
 So much awe in the wake of destruction
 As all your creatures struggle to function
 Under October's sun bearing down
 Upon the ground completely brown
 The rivers trickle to an absolute nil
 As all the land becomes deathly still
 Upon the flats as the heat's haze lingers there
 Survival a must we can hardly bear
 But the trees remind us it again soon will rain
 As in faith their green leaves refutably remain
 As the darkened clouds upon the horizon meet
 The hope in the air drifting past is sickly sweet
 The parched earth eagerly waits to greet
 The large drops of manna falling at its feet
 And we all breath a large sigh of relief
 As with the waters gift, gone is the grief
 Thank you god for all we go through
 When we can't really see what's true
 Time in its circle such a complex thing
 We know healing u always will bring
 So much beauty does abound
 That faith can always be found.

Intelligence

I truly believe that intelligence must come first
 That it is for vast knowledge you should thirst
 I want to see the quickness in your eye
 As you let all the ideas in your mind loose to fly
 I want to argue and toss ideas about
 Don't matter we argue a bit and shout
 As it is for knowledge I implore
 And I want my ideas strait for sure
 I want to stop hiding behind alcohol, gossip and strife
 And all the mass media hype of life
 The petty talk that makes my mind go numb
 Sitting lost and content just, to be dumb
 I want to live where my mind expands
 With the history and lessons from so many lands
 As science changes our beliefs day to day
 I want to know I analyzed it not just my own way
 I want to see as culture changes and molds the minds
 As new reality is created with discoveries of all kinds
 
 But as we get to know more and more
 As the past becomes nothing but a bore
 With our job, diploma or degree
 Are our minds really that free?
 What has humanity really learnt
 As every generation gets more burnt
 We fail to understand even ourselves
 Ideas and dreams packed away on shelves
 In a world racing with info and technology
 Soon it'll just be the reading of our eulogy
 
 So what could we really achieve?
 If we could truly in us believe
 Get to know our own benevolence
 And know the power of true intelligence.

Goodbye My Love

I love you I love you I do
 Words for many a war has been fought
 I love you I love tiz true
 Words for many a pointless item bought
 
Words cannot tell you how I feel
 Spinning round round like a wheel
 Thoughts cramming into my head
 From my mind they cannot be shed
 
I love you I love you I do
 These words just three little ones
 I love you though it maketh me blue
 And the spool continuously runs
 
My heart is being crushed from deep within
 Thoughts abounding causing such a din
 The pressure-each breath a painful gasp
 Yours was the heart I never could grasp
 
I love you I love you I do
 A feeling from which I can't refrain
 I love you, I hear not from you
 Silence which causes so much pain
 
For this love just friends cannot be
 You must go for love must be free
 So it must be that you and me end
 Tears fall, as to you, this letter I send

Forbidden Love

When you kissed me gently on the cheek
 I was enveloped in a wave of warmth
 You left me feeling securely weak
 As our arm drew me close to your side
 And as that kiss lingered softly on my skin
 I found myself overwhelmed, needing to hide
 Though I yearned to turn to look deep within
 Looking forlornly as I waved our goodbyes
 I knew if I'd lost myself in your eyes
 I couldn't resist a fiery embrace
 But alas I had to face
 Consequence-oh and disgrace
 The bitter triangle of fate
 Damn them lies
 To choose what side of me dies

The Vow

The Vow
 
 Will you be my muse
 See me for who I really am
 Will you be there to amuse
 When lost I sit upon my dam
 Will you help me hold up my wall
 That keep emotions from flooding all
 
 Will you laugh with me on a summers day
 Standing on a lonely beach
 Will you pull me back your way
 When I get too far out of reach

 Will you let me love you true
 As we walk amongst browning leaves
 Will you bask with me in autumns hue
 And enjoy its peaceful reprieves

 Will you warm me on a crisp winters night
 In front of a crackling fire
 Will you show me all is right
 With eyes sparkling with desire
 
Will you inspire me to create
 As springs flowers first appear
 Will you amongst the snow fallen late
 Be beside me to see my every fear
 
 Will you be with each passing day
 As by the seasons swiftly run
 Will you stand by my side as you may
 Until our time of love is finally done

I'M a Star

I am like a star shining brightly
All who see me think of me as mighty
I shine to infinity
In my own pure purity
In a world surrounded by uncertainty 
I will continue to shine 
Unaffected by others humanity
And the worlds chaotic profanity
I am a star shining bright
Attempting life with all my might
As I continue to always fight
Through many a peril 'n plight
And I let my spirit inside glow hot
As I let my soul out in solo flight
To get what many have long forgot
The depth of the humans bleeding heart 
And that is what keeps me as a star far apart
As I can look upon pain from far above 
And feel the intolerable hurt of love

Love's Pain

A little more than tipsy,
 So truth be my master,
 Cannot be the girl for u
 For love is my disaster,
 Alone always I must be
 For all I can see is blue
 So forgive and forget me,
 For I don't know wat I do.
 
I loved you with all my heart
 As my mind it broke apart
 I know I caused u pain
 Those tears in the rain
 I'm just too human to be loved
 As away from you I shoved
 I just love far to much
 To ever really be in touch
 Alone in my world I live
 Just not enough to give
 
In love I always deeply fall
 As I give my very all
 But too intense they say
 As I wave by another day
 The dusk, a sign of an end
 To another very good friend
 
As i walk through this busy mall
 The tears just continue to fall
 Around me a bustling crowd
 Can't drown my thoughts so loud
 
My tears they never cease to flow
 The hurt bubbling from deep below
 A million things ill just never know
 So many truths I can never show

I Wish

I wish that you were my beau
And to have known u thru and thru
Wish there was more to do
Then giving up on what I wish was true

I wish
To have heard your violin pierce its sad song
Through the crisp cold night air
I wish to have seen your soul opened bare 
To feel its chorus entwined right there
I wish together we would always belong
That our rivers course had not gone so wrong

I wish to hear your violins banter
My heart all a flutter
Dancing under a brazen moon
When good times upon us meet
To hear its upbeat tune
Making me want to tap my feet

I'd love to hear you ramble on
About things I know zilch about
Of what it doesn't matter
I just love to hear you amaze
The realms of knowledge I can't even count

I wish I could get to know you
And understand from where you came
That you were more to me
Than a half empty name
 
I wish I could hike over mountains right by your side
And see the mountain rivers flow as to hide
The days when these marvelous giants died

I wish I could have known you every single day
To have known how you inspire and irritate me in every little way

But it also does make me sad to realize
We could never lived through each other always telling these damn lies
 
So to sleep to go I must 
For my heart I cannot trust
For it overflows in great pain
Not an ounce of love it is to gain
But to reality I must retain
And do it is that I refrain
From calling you from my soul 
To hear my hearts call
But it is always from great heights that the mighty fall
So away I go in shame
A pointless mind made game 
That my heart did empower
It is me that is truly lame
To have hoped beyond the final hour

I'm in a dream entrapped 
Stuck in a thought yet unwrapped
Of a place not yet mapped
Tis long since the crowd watched and clapped
