The journey of Love

Count my love not labour lost
though sunk in the depth of despair
Where love is nothing but a dream
that i wake up to loose

spare my soil its deserved shame
though gone astray in lusty lonely ways
int he depth of my essence
a deeper love rest untouched

how can i sacrifice your soul?
something i never owned?
if not in the hope of love
the truth that keeps me on

on and on, the road of life
though dry and weary
never mourn my just decline
in thi unkind journey of love

Memories

You are lost in the jungle
While i seek my soul in the city
Days swiftly pass by
Washing away fading precious memories
of days spent in your warmth
watching the sun rise
With the melodies of sparrows
Watching the sun set
with a gold that set the rivers red
and sparkle your smile in the dark
when confined to shelf-life
I reminisce the time spent
and the time wasted
in the folly of our youth

Jumping off the wall

When i was but a little boy
I jumped off the wall
Fell on erected thorns
Broke a bone or two
Cried a tear or two
But today when i meet the same ordeal
It is not an experience
But failure to keep standing

Conception

You saw me
red, covered with scarlet lime
you know
The end of my umbilical cord
You saw it all
When my first tear broke
With a little soft wail
From conception to birth
From the womb of your affection
You bled me into existence
And how i wish
The umbilical cord was never cut
and the blood never washed

Promises

If all i had was promises
I would be dead now
Swallowed in despair

If all my love
was tied to the umbilical cord
of your broken promises
my love would be still born

Promises, is all you ever had
Even as we tossed in intimacy
Like the Atlantic ocean
For you it was nothing

Last night i held the moon
and made love to the stars
but the night's shadow fade
It is but a broken promise

illumination

I am not blind
I am not impressed with vision
But when i see a dream
Radiating in darkness
I succumb
I worship light
The essence of my being exposed
The depth of my lines revealed
in the glorious menace
Overcast by light
A light that flows from my depth
So that i may live and last

My Dreams

If all my dreams should fail
and i am gulping down my demise
but still with a heart rich
filled with an undying love
I will live when i die
an see the sunlight
through fractured pieces of my dreams
for when nothing breath life
and all are stuck in despair
my heart shall find redemption
in the sweet embrace of your soul
closer to a heart that beats
life into my arid heart

When my dreams can not stand
the wicked pitch dark night
you are the dream
that will take me to tomorrow
where no sorrow abides
