if i could hold u If I could hold you I'd squeeze my arms tight Till you're feeling alright On through the night To reassure you so much fingers gentle to touch Eskimo kisses and such If I could rub

cosmic wiegh stations caught between the past and a dream no longer a burden to memory for the good of heart shall rise their countenance shall glow all others shall know and be a party to it and in the end the recompense shall be exacted whether foul of foot a pound of flesh extracted but the good of heart shall have rest as the bleeting lamb that lays down by the feet of his shephard the good shephard knows his sheep and will lay down his life for them as i reminisce the sun sets over the city shadows dance on the trees your smile lights the way glowing on my door step shining brightly my day star lost on the city streets two lonely children wandering through candy cane houses with ginger bread shingles i wonder who lives there maybe a king or a queen we share a laugh and turn the corner everything's like gold and diamonds when i'm with you our voices echo off into the annals of eternity passing through this space and time leaving behind traces of our love the salty sweetness

when i grow up some day i don't deserve you you deserve better than me i want to die for i have hurt you and been a terrible husband i never gave you my best i reserved that for total strangers for that i am damned there is no forgiveness for me i shall rot in hell for eternity i love you so damn much i want to carress your soul i want to touch your heart i want to take back the time the years of pain i wrapped up in a bow and dumped on your most beautiful heart you were waiting for your knight in shining armor and you got me this shallow, cold, unfeeling asshole i will do whatever it takes to be by your side again i will wait a thousand years i will walk a thousand miles only to hold you close and feel your heart beat to wipe the tears from your eyes and boldly walk out into the brave new world together hand in hand into the sun we'll walk through meadows fair when threads run bare i'll be there for you come what may into the eternal void of time with you by my side i'm just a lonely boy I'm just a lonely boy lookin' for love lost on the highway cruisin' down the trails of lush green meadows I pick lilies and adorn them in your hair barefoot i feel the ground the grass is cold and wet i smell the trees run from the bees get lost in the perfume of the flowers lovely is your face against the background of my affection your eyes are like pools of emerald green water flowing endlessly through my senses i chase you and laugh we wrestle to the ground i tickle your body and roll you around we cuddle and then like children of the sun we run through meadows green long slow kisses i'm a slave to your wishes soaking up rays on those do nothing days like droplets of lemon they kiss our skin my heart lets you in summer time like beams of sunshine shooting forth you glow in the mid day sun glistening as droplets of water glide down your smooth curves the cold water perks up your goose bumps summer is in full swing the gang is all here pass me a beer let's take a walk dear steve miller jams on the radio familiar tune we all know "time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin', into the future" "beep, beep, beep" frisbee flies highlighting your eyes we sneak off to a secluded place just so i can see your face and smoke this doob no hurries, no worries we are young and beautiful the world is ours puppies and kids roll around in the grass cut off jeans highlight

deep to the bone my hands cupping ur ass your screams could break glass we come together good lay naked and eat food smoke our last cigarette and fall fast asleep eternal void a sea of cars as many as the stars flow like a river coming from nowhere off to oblivion as the afternoon sun falls upon the concrete and metal high rise buildings casting shadows on the streets below exhaust turns the sunset copper amber as the mill worker beats a hammer gears of machinery turn round and round man goes back to the ground without making a sound the sum total of all he's worth before he leaves the earth what is a human soul worth? time marches on the passing parade fa so la tee do round and round we go ashes, ashes, we all fall down back to the ground eternal void into the blender down the abyss ignorant bliss nothingness life spawns and takes hold clutching fast with resistence prolonging existence like the wise tenticles of the ice plant on a hill side try to find meaning try to make sense try to get even exact recompense you wake as the first rays of the new day peek over the mountain's majesty what a travesty the whole tapestry to perpetuate the species as the earth revolves around the sun as the sun revolves around the galaxy as the galaxy revolves around the cluster the sum total of man's existence is all we can muster the stillness of the quiet three part harmony voices blending in fusion piano plays sets sail my illusion carry me away to the ocean where i can be free where the waves shall carry me i am alone i like it this way the stillness of the quiet the sun tans my skin oh mother ocean please let me in i'll dance with your mermaids swim with your dolphins play with your star fish tell poseidon my wish my naked body shall squirm slither like a worm through your wet and salty water say hi to your daughter the morning sun sparkles the fog lingers above you the quiet's so sweet i really love you You are ok 2 me to yell and not be heard to yearn and never be satisfied to long for acceptance and not get it to be relegated to have your name and words mistated to be so ill fated after having waited you waited your turn only to learn your soul wouldn't burn with the fires of lust's passions sadly you were born out of fashion yearning you trudge on through burning your heart feeling blue turning the world passes you day after day you walk this way none take notice or bother to say those magical words your heart longs to hear and if per chance your ears could hear those simple words devoid of fear "you are OK to me" "i like you just the way you are" "i want to be with you now" "let's take a ride in your car" "wherever you go from now on" "i want to be by your side" "your life partner" "because I love you" "with all my heart" "and I always will" just to be with you when i had nothing you came into my life when you learned to walk i was there when you fell down i would care we played for hours passed the time i watched you grow i'm so proud you know slept on the floor by your bed at night told you scary stories in the dark twilight the fire crackling we will never cross this way again you are my bliss your tender kiss when you waived to me from up on your perch at chucky cheese's i swallowed hard you were so innocent and you needed me so much my child when i chased you in the play ground and you told me "you can't catch me daddy" i was in heaven when you blew out the candles made sand castles when you cried i held you i will always love you and i will defy life, death even the very laws of the universe just to be with you always my child just to be with you what it's like to be me what it's like to be me how it feels to be free sleep time is over now i can see my habits push harder than me at least i'm aware right here i'll bare my conscience for you detrimental actions net silly infractions gain me no tractions in this commy faction we call the us of a like a hamster i grind my personal treadmill unwinds slipping backwards i fall finger prints streak across the wall but i'm still here standing tall my waist size defies me the scale tells me lies you see my road narrows ahead spend less time in my bed lost what little cred at least i stay fed and most of all i'm not dead sometimes, when the moon is just right when the stars are all aligned things just fall into place no longer have to race just to save face and leave a lasting trace in this brief fleeting place we call our existence i'll show more persistence cast off my resistence embrace your techniques my game i will tweak slim down my physique feel strong and not week outlook's not bleak goals bring hope hope for the future at the end of the age step into the room flowers in bloom coat tails and hats silken dinner mats a table for two the red wine for you the crystal for me please maitre di glass to your lips hands on your hips read you my quips kiss your finger tips some champagne and soup dash off in my coupe off to the sand just you and your man feeling your breath i love you to death fondling your hair thank god you are there walk along waves into the caves it's never a chore you're never my slave the bluffs are so tall i want you all all in my heart all in my soul as waves crash gently i hear you softly speak you whisper my name your knees getting weak your voice carresses my ear it's what i want to hear you say "i love you" and i always will both now and forever i can wait for the stars to burn off their gas to crumble into the sea at the end of the age it's just you and me down the path of my heart she winds all her shiny things are new diamonds in the rough i'm hard and i'm tough she called my bluff cracked my steel melted me soft made me like pillows wind blown willows cold steel feels good not like splintery wood her curtains blow in the wind her canopy covers our sin silk sheets trace her lines her lingerie has made me blind she's like a sip of fine aged wine down the path of my heart she winds death Sitting in their rolling coffins Waiting for the lights to change Hurrying off to nowhere To meet no one For no reason at all Mindless faces Leaving behind no lasting traces Fleeting breathing souls shoot forth They wither in the mid day sun Their ultimate fate they can't outrun Making funny little noises Striving, ever striving to find meaning In this senseless existence Already dead before they die Living out a great big lie People lonely behind their masks Putting on shows and doing little tasks Living out their miserable fate For their inevitable death they wait Waiting for that final moment That sweet moment of death's cold embrace When they dress you in your finest lace You meant nothing You were nothing You return to nothing from whence you came Ah but it's all the same I'm glad I passed through this brief existence I felt the love of many I'll die without fear Life's pain hath tempered my emotions There's nothing to be afraid of anymore "And in the end The love you take Is equal to the love....you make"*The Beatles "When your spirit slips away There's nothing you can do or say May the angels be watching over you That fateful day When your spirit splips away" *R.I.P. Phil Lynott Thin Lizzy So when this train reaches her last stop The conductor will signal for me to step off the train And I shall be dead desolation A tin can clanks on the ground in the street The wind howls like witches in unison singing a scary song There is not a soul as far as the eye can see It looks darker than usual outside I don't hear the beautiful laughter of kids playing The sound of birds singing sweetly to me There are no pretty colors tonight There are no round and fuzzy shapes Everything is cold and grey With straight lines and sharp edges Like a 40's film noir movie with Humphrey Bogart Inside I feel the same way I am magnifying my flaws in my mind I see nothing good in myself There is hardly anyone around to lift me up But I love me I love you too I hesitate to say that For fear you may not love me too But I don't have the time to worry bout that Life's too short to worry about whether there's a balance in the force I'll let nature take her course Hang in there See what tomorrow will bring Will tomorrow ever get here How will I fall asleep It was such an unsatisfying day How could I be at peace in my mind How could I rest my head on the pillow And sleep This too shall pass But the cold fingers of the night send shivers down my soul The emptiness inside is like the constant throbbing pain of a stubbed toe It won't subside It's high tide for the emptiness of my soul The waves of loneliness are beating against the shore of my heart Will things ever get better Intellectually I know they will But that doesn't change the way I feel right now the lovliest thing in the whole damn place The scent of coffee wafts in from the kitchen My morning sweat needs a shower I wake you up with lullabies Caress your back and behold your eyes The soft breeze coming in through chiffon curtains Makes your skin perk up I write you a poem Recite it to you Pick you up when you're feeling blue The clouds of cotton dance on skies of blue This picnic basket has just enough for two A box of wine, chicken Kiev, a bowl of grapes What shall we do, eat or make love I feast on your delights More beautiful then fine aged wine More pungent than imported cheese More succulent than filet mignon Bodies entwined, embraced in the clutches of love This lovely green field frames your face The loveliest thing in this whole damn place I take your picture to hang at my place lover's delight Well thanks for that, you're too kind You touched my heart, my love is blind I thought this was my one last chance I was waiting for that last slow dance The smoke filled bar was empty and bare The bartender was putting up all the chairs The smell of stale alcohol filled the musty air The flute player piped for us slow Caressing my heart in places down low Your hair smells of pachouli and rose hips I recite for you my poetic quips I kiss your mouth with soft wet lips And then move out over the dance floor Where there's more Your pulsing heart is a rhythmic symphony Beating in time with percussive tympany My brain reaches the ceiling My hormones are seething Your breast is breathing Like a soft cooing dove Pleading for love And I quench your thirst Vanquish your turgid heat Grinding our hips to the beat Spirits lifted we feel complete My bare and lovely exterior Caressing your soft interior Makes me feel superior The soft veneer of your sultry curves The lovely sheen of my hands make swerves Upon your protruding buds Bath tub suds Soft back rubs Toe tickles And I undress your sensibilites Lay you down on a bed of roses Burn for you the incense of harmony The fire crackles as we sip our cognac Laying naked by the fire We share our deepest desires This love trist in the night A veritable lovers delight Time Time waits in a jungle lair Sleeps in the misty forgotten air Waits for no man to stop and stare These jungle vines of time Wrapping gently the forest of all existence With their eternally reaching fingers Shrouding all they see In a warm blanket of impermanence The throws of all human thought Towers and castles men have wrought Empires men have sweat for and bought All have died and come to nought Embracing the reality of lost humanity Men turn their heads preferring mental insanity Stare into mirrors and turn to greed and vanity But the regularity with which the drum beat tolls Befuddles both men and trolls The most predictable reality the prophet extoles Fades their flavor from off the earth A faded rose has died and given birth A jaded child has lived and spread mirth But all have died and returned to the earth godly vanity Flowing lines Dripping wine Throw me a line My woman divine Love takes time That's all I've got for you Love takes two There's nothing more I'd like to do Than make sweet love to you You fill my gaping soul Oozing love streaming upon my heart Lazily dripping on my sweet sensibilities Caressing my very core There's nothing more I would ever need But to hold you tightly In my ever loving arms Floating out over the universe Swooping down upon the galaxies I paint the night sky with light Write your name with stars so bright I give you dominion over fate The key to my gate My power flows to your wand Wave your wand and make time stand still Savor this moment with me for eternity We shall dance upon castle tops Knighted with the swords of angels Hearts pierced by the arrows of cherubs Turning weeds into flowers The nectar is from our love Spawned by the peace of the dove Blessed by God above And thrown into the eternal void of splendor Chasm of aching and groaning humanity Chamber of suffering and insanity Adorn them with our godly vanity A million lifetimes chased [By Cinnamon and Brian] [Brian] All these blogs and so little time to live our real lives Run away with me to the stars and damn the torpedoes My soul awaits thee in the shaded wood down by the lake Where the doves cry and the swans glide serenely Cutting the stillness of the water with their wake [Cinnamon] For if only I could run away and gaze upon sweet stars torpedoes would not, could not phase..... me oh but what a beautiful thought a soul shaded not by woods or weeds but instead floating free to roam... much like that of a dove no wait better yet a swan gliding serenely upon still waters [Brian] We make some beautiful music together No matter the weather With a strum on the strings of my heart You swoon me like the dove With a playful piping of the flute You make me follow unto the ends of the earth Your words caressing my heart, like brushes on the symbol My soul gently weeps for you Like the softly played trumpet in a smoke filled nightclub Last call, there's no one left here but us No friendly faces and it's my last chance for your love Wilt thou take but this one chance my love The chance of a million lifetimes, bestowed from above [Cinnamon] music is meant to be beautiful better when nurtured by two... the strum on a string the heart and a swoon are all but small players on the symphony played by piping flutes destined for earths end... never finding doom for the words to this tune are forever meant to caress thy heart with brushes and symbols gentle and slow no music could be better than that.... let thy soul fly free and never weep listen to thine words forever sweet there shall be no gentle weeps this night instead.... sounds of trumpets playing in smoke filled nightclub rooms filled with friendly faces matter naught tonight is for last chances a million lifetimes chased .... This poem is about when my son Josh was born. He came into my life and gave me a reason to live, he is everything to me. Joshua I was walking this path of life Filled with nothing but pain and strife Winding trail through rolling hills Drinking booze and taking pills Empty heart no reason to live No one to share with, nothing to give Came to a cross roads looked around Off in the distance heard a beautiful sound A little boy playing a harmonica appeared Would this boy walk past I feared He said his name was Joshua He left his trail and came along He took my hand, played me a song Made me feel like I belong We walked for miles Shared some smiles Hung out for a while Joshua said can I stay with you I said sure little boy And I love you too Now he walks by my side Where ever I go I'm never lonely I have my one and only Joshua Skip across the street Category: Writing and Poetry Skip across the street Wind blows through the people you meet Flowing through the places you know Places no one else would dare go Like a river you flow Back yards Alley ways Parking lots No one stays The weak of constitution stare Not knowing where Where you've been That lonely pang tears at your heart again Pushing it back down and then You're back out on the street again Out of sight out of mind Conscience blind Free as a bird Small spaces Passing faces Time races Leaves no traces The human race is Cold Like this street at night Bedroom lights go out Nobody around Heart on the ground A porch light Someone inside Heart burns bright Waiting for you To come home Like two birds sitting on a wire Category: Writing and Poetry Like two birds sitting on a wire Playfully frolicking in flight Gathering round each other Our souls reach the heights A bicycle built for two A lazy afternoon I read you my poetry An old fashioned swoon So many days and moments So many special times Hearts melting together Drinking each other's wine There's still a burning ember In my hearth left for you There's still a way to stoke The flames of love for us two I softly caress your back Tell you how much I care I keep my eyes fixed on you My gentle blue eyed stare Nothing else matters Nothing else can compare Nobody will ever take your place Not even the girl with the prettiest face
