Dreamed

I dreamed through the dark
I dreamed through the pain
I dreamed through the shame
I dreamed through the lack of gain
I dreamed through things remaining the same
I dreamed through my mistakes
I dreamed through my failures
I dreamed through the night
And in the morning
There was the light

Muder Of Crows

They called me today
He said please sit down I have something to say
Your immortal beloved has died today
The sky turned red
The sea black
For now what was to occur?
On the ground my heart was found
A murder of crows
Took their turn
For I with out a heart was too weak
The crows carried on with their early morning feast

Spirtual Dancer

She moves to His drum
Spirtual dancer
She hears only His heavenly voice as the trumpts surround her
Spirtual dancer
He sends angels to twirl her in the air
Spirtual dancer
The fluits and violens play
The angels sing day after day
She is at peace as they play
Spirtual dancer

Dedicated to Toco by beloved brother Each Star

Each star knows him by name
They blink
Just like us
The world could not contain his emotions
So the stars sent for them
For when they sparkle
Their laughing with him

Angles

Cotton candy
Pink popcorn
For those days at carnivals and parades I do mourn
I'll be glad when the angles blow their horns

And She Danced

Her feet moved through the air
As her hips swayed swiftly to the drums of the music
She twisted to the sweet sounds
Her black stilletos moved back and forth
Side to side
Corner to corner
Her skirt fell in love with her
Like it was alive
It was something out of a dream
A dancing Barbados queen
So sexy
So familure
But yet so unique
He twirled her around and she never missed a beat

Loose

If I loose one more thing
If I loose my head
If I loose my kids
If I loose my money
If I loose my honey
I already lost my daddy
If I loose my grandmommy
If I loose my sight
If I loose my voice
If I loose my liver
If I loose my heart
If I loose my sister
If I loose my gift
If I loose my life
I know to loose is life
To loose seems so unnatural
As waking up from a bad dream

Gray

Gray

What is gray?
Some may say
Gray
Is sad
Gray
Is lonely
Gray
Is guilty
Gray
Is cold
Gray
Is tears
There is a recepi that this world is made of
A little sugar
A little salt
A little black
A little white
Gray

God what do I have to do to stand tall
Oh how I suffer
Oh Lord only you hear my screams in the night
Oh Lord I am so sorry
Forgive me
For I feel as if I will fall
The pressure
The pressure
When too strong
When too long
Can knock us over
God what do I have to do to stand tall
When one has lost it all
Nothing to hold
I am empty
It is so hard to carry on
When you are the one to blame
They say on Earth we breathe air
I sware
It is something much harder here

Tomorrow

To get through this storm
You have to love
To make it through the hurricane
You must forgive
To not drown in the flood
You got to let the past go
To live through trials
Believe and say
There is always a tomorrow

Beautiful

You two blend like a lake to a sea
Sweet colors in the ocean sea
It makes me so happy to see
To say I Do
Is so very true
I Do
Is like baby pink and blue clouds in the sky
Waking up every morning by each others sides
When I see you two together
I know it will be forever
Your playful ways
Will make dark days
Like a child's first birthday
I say this with much
Much love and congradulations
You two are bonded as one
Beautiful
Have a wonderful life
Full of joy and fun

Saturn's Rings

True love looks like Saturn rings
You are beauty to me
Every day is a gift to be with you
I remember our first kiss
At that moment I made a wish
Like a child blowing out a candle stick
I just wanted to say I love you
I will always keep you near
Try to take away your fears
I see us in the future far
True love looks like the universe holding all the planets and the sparkling stars

You Think

You think I'd leave you baby?
You think I'd leave your side baby?
Down on your knees baby
I woudn't do that
You think I'd leave you in pain?
You think I'd leave you in the cold?
You think I'd even leave you with a runny nose?
I wouldn't do that
You think I'd leave you cause there is no money?
You think I'd you when there is no food?
You think I'd leave if the lights went out?
I wouldn't do that
In life whatever bomb blows
I'll never leave you low
I need you like a colic baby
You think I could leave you baby?
I will forever try
I'd never
Ever
Ever
Leave your side
Can't let you pass me by
It is a fact
Real love can not die

Eden

Eden

Today is sunny
Today is bright
I'll feel you close in the dark night
With stars for our bright light
Please never leave my heart
Please keep it warm in your hands
Cause I've been dropped in desert lands
So I leave love
I know it is hard to understand
My plan is to love you
In a paradise of lovers land
In the garden of Eden
Before Eve sinned
Oh one day we will be able to all love and start again

Dedicated to the young

Looking out the window on the bus

At the crumbling world

Watching all the prostitute little girls

All the boys with guns

Ready and waiting to fire one

A early death has been their desire

No one knows of their pain

No one knows why they drink hennsey

No one knows why they blaze a blunt

No one knows why they take mushrooms

No one knows why they turn to pills

No one know why they want to kill

No one knows why meth captures them

No one knows why they overdose

On the worst of them

Why all the killing?

Why all the fighting?

No one knows what goes on at home

No one knows what is in their dome

No one knows why some don't want to go home

No one knows why they feel so alone

There was a time were I felt like them

I cry

And sigh

And hope for them

This Moment

This moment you are here
This moment I'm so near
In this moment we will soar so far my dear
In this moment I can hear you breathe
In this moment I can hear your heart beat
In this moment life is clear as ice
This moment I can hug and kiss you twice
This moment trials never matter
This moment sadness is lost
This moment the pain has been taken with the wind
This moment is ours
In this moment we laugh
In this moment is all we have

Sorry

Sorry

I am sorry for breaking your heart
But a split heart can rip someone elses apart
Now our love is in the dark
I wish to tell you lies
That I'm still in love with you
When you find out the truth
The ocean will cover you
I don't expect you to understand
I am just a women
And your only a man
I hurt like a stabbed wound
But I won't ever be comming home
Not even soon
I look at the moon
It cries for me
I look at the stars
They sigh for me
I look in your eyes
I can not see

Mary Jane

I breathe you
Your scent is so devine
One maybe two
You're all mine
Looking at you makes me want you more
I can smell you when I step through my front door
Good at night like ice cream
Sweet like candy
I can't hide it
I must confess
I choke on your love
You feel my lungs with pleasure
I am so at ease
Mary can I get some please
It is just like I came
Smoking on that Mary Jane

Angry With You

You read this
And it may only make sense to a few
Only a few
I am so mad at you
I am so enraged at you
I am so annoyed by you
I antagonize you
I put my blood in a pot on high
It boils at you
I spit venom at you
I am ouraged towards you
Full of bitterness I am
Nervousness
Jitters
Shakes
Worry
Concern
And
Much
Much
Uncertainty
Floating on a sea of anxiety
For why do you love me?
When I have turned my heart against you
For why do you love me so?
Why will you not let me go?
Mon Amour
I burn hearts
A blue flower
You are my rock
A warrior
Never a coward
Your love is so sweet
Never sour

Please Put The Blame On Me

I left you
Please put the blame on me
Do not say you are sorry
Do not say you were wrong
Do not say it is your fault
Melted ice always drops
Hearts break
Crack
And
Die
Baby
Don't you see
Please put the blame on me

Killing me softly
We know behind closed doors

All night long
You could never do it wrong
All night long
Your song
Your voice
Your melody
Your cords
Your base
Your drums
I know I am away many days
And I know you pray for my safety
With you we fly free
Your sweet love killing me softly

Saxaphone And Rain

There is something about the saxaphone mixing with the rain
When you hear it there is no memories in which you would blame
The music has crept in my heart without a warning
Like your peach kiss in the morning
There is something about the saxaphone mixed with the rain
In which under satin sheets can be attained
In which your touch is as romanic as the rain
My dear love let me soak up your pain
Your amour makes me feel like a star with great fame
Sounds of the saxaphone and wet rain on my window pane

Dedicated to Rena and Tena

Kiss me my sweet
Take my pain from me
For you
Only you
I am Aladin finding a secret treasure beneath diging millions of years
Now I have finally found you
A digger all my life for a genie
You gave me only three wishes
I wided and desired to love you
I wished to adored and stay with you into eternity
I wished to thirst for your comany, each and every day
The genie granted me my wishes
Only you know my spirit
So close
You can hear it
In a blue world
You are my symphoney
Of piano cords
And brown sugar
My taste buds long for you more than if I fasted for a month
Do you really
Really know much I love you?
Do you really understand there is no human above you?
You are my white flower
We are the shine in the powerful sun
For you my precious love are forever my only one

Space

Space

Maybe if I was on Saturn
I could see real beauty
If I was on pluto
I could feel worthy
If I were on Venus
I could taste real ice cream
Oh only if I could make Earth a mere silent dream

Music

Can your hear the music?

I can hear the music

Can you find the snare in the drum

Can you tell the black notes on the piano from the white

Can you make out the trumpets from the clarinet

Anybody can notice a saxophone

But can you hear Jazz?

See there is no such class

That can give you the passion and desire the hunder for music

You have to make love to it

Or you could never have knew it

I can play on stars

Cause I make sweet sugary love

To Music

Save you sweetie

I'll save you sweetie the best way I know how
I'll save you sweetie in my prayers
He abouve hears me my lovely dear
There is no need to worry mama is here
No need to have even one little fear
I'll save you sweetie for as long as I can
And over you mama would never choose a man
I got you so close you could not even understand
I'll save you sweetie the best way I know how
Your my first born
And you are getting older now
But you will always be mama's baby
You will always be my child
You will always be my life
You will always be my love
I'll save you sweetie the best way I know how
I'll keep you close in my heart
Close near my spirit
I love you
Can't you miles away hear it?
I'll save you sweetie from everything then and now
I'll save you sweetie the best way I know how

Danny

He talked non-stop
The other one too
Telling me always what to and not to do
When I speak to you I hear my voice
I can not even hear a whisper
Not even hear you breathe
Understanding what I feel
How a cracked heart bleeds
Connected as one
You have taken me inside your hidden parts
And have come to know the real me
Not what you want to see
You took the time
To wonder and ponder into a lovers mind
To take notice of a spirit that has fallen
Crushed with time
But the wind
In your eyes
Carries me floating on bright orange clouds in the sky

Honeyed

What is underneath the beautiful sea
But your lips kissing me
Touched behind peach trees
You resting on my breasts behind lemon trees
Cotton candy
Pink popcorn
For your honeyed amour
Our souls will soar

FALLEN

Fallen leaves
Fallen roses
Fallen rain
Fallen snow
Fallen stars
Fallen butterflies
Pretty and oh so gental
Beautiful and oh so colorful
Butterflies
A fallen blue bird
A fallen dream
Snow is colder than frost
In love the first one to suffer has lost

GLITTER

I took notice of the stars
No need for a telescope to see all of them glitter
I felt trickling tears
No
No tears at all
The gray sparkling glitter fell lightly upon my face
The stars cried for me

The Bird

Raven
Oh beautiful Raven of mine
You are a black diamond
In a deserted mine
You are a pink rose that smells of future dreams and crystal streams
Innocent to the touch
Soft on the eyes
You are a breath of frankincense
There is only One who could have done it
You are heaven sent
So sorry my love you will cry
But oh go high my Raven
Fly
Fly
Fly
