IRELAND The green of Ireland I long have wondered what love is
SHE WONDERS
A DREAM
LIFE
THE TRANSFORMATION
THE QUESTION
DRAGONFLY
THE PROMISE
AN ANGEL IN DISGUISE I was thought dead
SOUL MATE When the sun hits your
THE PHOENIX The phoenix
ANTICIPATION You dream about it
FAITHFUL I told you
THE RAINBOW There was a great storm
THE ROSE The beauty of the sun
UNTITLED
THE DARKNESS AWAITS
the blue of its sea
the castles stand high
while the houses do fall
Fall to the earth to die
But the Irish people
do not give up
They start to rebuild
Their houses and their lives
and when things get bad
And there's nowhere else
To go to get help for their suffering
There is a stone said to help
kiss the stone
Taste the rock
the way its bitter
in your mouth
concentrate real hard
close your eyes
and make your
wish...
Is love the warmth you feel when you're close to someone?
Is love understanding your loved one's faults and accepting them?
Is love not trying to change the one you love
into someone you have loved before?
I think I finally found out what the word "LOVE" means...
Love is a feeling you get when you hold your loved one close to you and say "LOVE YOU"
Finally, love is the moment when you place the ring on your loved one's hand and say "I DO."
The moment you kiss your new wife and say "I am glad we are married..."
When he leaves the house
Late at night
she wonders if he will return
or if he has found someone better
to keep him warm
She wonders if she did something wrong
or is it just the way she looks?
So she stands before the mirror
and cries when she sees
her reflection.
She cries even more and thinks
Does she have what it takes
to keep him - or will she lose him?
So that night, she cries and cries
even more through out the night
she waits with a damp pillow
and thinks
No one deserves this
So she gathers her strength
and gets her emotions settled out
leaves
Years later, when she thinks about this
her emotions flare up
But she knows she did what was best
but still
she wonders...
I dreamed the dream of life and death and of sin
I dreamed of dreaming beyond the sea of souls
I have dreamed not only of this but so much more
I have thought of my dreams in a dream and of where it might lead
but before I get the answer to my dream I was just dreaming
I wake up not knowing why or what for
So I sit up on the bed really disturbed and in thought
and I think outloud ot myself "was what I had a dream?
and if so, do I want to dream anymore?"
Then the thought hit me I say to myself very loud
So I reach for a pistol in the dresser drawer
and with a quick movement of my hand end my life
And as I am dying, I say to myself very faintly
Thank God I will dream the dream no more...
I sit and think and wonder
what life is about
And my thoughts do flow
like wine
sometimes burning the images
like the sun rays
in the new world
and the ink of life.
He howled at the moon
With all the strength
and vigor he possessed
After he slumps against
A tree and wait for it
To begin
again
No, he just can't take it
anymore
But it just won't stop
Agony!
No, please God make it stop!
But it continues
It only stops with
The morning
Sunlight...
I asked a question
To the sky, the sky
Did not reply,
All it did was rain
All over my aching head
I asked the river the same
but it spit water in my eyes
I aksed the canyon who was
quite rude to say the very least
He kept repeating what I asked
I tried and still the same reply
My own voice echoing in the canyon
I tried
And again I tried
But now I was starting to turning
blue, but still my question
did not get answered, so I
really am quite
blue...
I look at the moon
and I swear
I can see someone
staring back at me
I am so afraid
I really don't know
what to do
Oh God!
It's getting closer
Someone, anyone, please help!
I start to shiver and sweat
So I stand still alone and afraid
But refusing to give in
To my fears and the evil
that seem to be all around
It's getting closer and even closer
I'm going to die
Wait, I see something!
A pair of eyes
It turns out all my fears
Were in vain because
It turned out to be a
dragonfly...
On this day, he promised to return
So night after night, day after day and year after year she waits
He has not yet returned, so she thinks to herself
Did he forget me?
I do not know, maybe the winds of change
has yet to blow in the direction it needs
to go, so I guess I will stay her and pray for
his safe return so that the day will come
that he returns to fulfill the promise
that he made to me so long ago...
by a lot of people
then I glance
and could swear
I saw an angel
in disguise
she brought me
back in so many
different ways
that it would
be hard for
anyone to understand
she is a dancer
by night, a lover too
and when the moment
the sun shines in her
blue eyes she becomes
a dancer
of sorts to keep you
off guard and
pow! she has
you under
her spell.
eyes I do glow
with the thought of
you and I alone
but together as one
in my mind, searching
and when we are
through exploring
our minds we shall
know each other
deeper than we have
before and on
a full moon
you shall think
of me and I of you, my love
my life
my ever soul mate.
was burning
with the fire
of heaven and earth
so it could not
really be
extinguished
so as the
hands of time
begin their slow
descent, and death
is eminent
the phoenix
begins its
fiery journey
again...
your whole life
waiting for the moment
to arrive, and as you
watch with your mouth
agape as if seeing it
for the first time
the rays hit you
like a bolt of lightning
and you watch as the
day begins, with the rising
of the sun!
I would be
faithful until
time froze still
until the time
I will remember
the times we had
the way your earlobes
tasted in my mouth
and the way you
giggled when you
liked it
all these
things I remember
as I watch TV
and reminisce
so I tell you
I will save
my love
for all
eternity...
and even the wind was quite fierce.
We had planned on going
for a nice summer trip,
then all this had happened
and we could not go
so we were brooding
and staring out the window
yearning to be free
from the confines of the room that we were in
when all of a sudden it stopped raining
and from out of the blue
came the most beautiful of things
the shining light and colors
of a beautiful rainbow...
shimmering gently
on the petals of
a growing red rose
after the rain
has washed through
leaving a rainbow
to show it was there
we are all like roses
just be careful of
the growing thorns
around your heart!
The wind howled
we tried to hide
hide what the
weather was
doing to us
turning us
into the animals
we tried not to be
as we hid
our temp rose
and we turned our
bodies to one another
for warm comfort
and solitude
"I am scared to death"
she screamed
inside her head
as she was running
for her life
Not knowing
which way to turn
or what direction
she was heading for
all she knew was
She had to get away
from the darkness
that was following
her every move
exhausted
She slumped against
the wall
sweat and blood
mingled together
as she could
no longer run
In a last-ditch effort
to end it all
she screamed
at the top of her lungs
for the darkness
to take her
body and soul
She heard the darkness
coming upon hearing her call
and felt a slight chill
upon her skin
as the darkness
entered to recieve her
she waited, for it
to come to her
No longer able to fight or flee
she just gave up
to the darkness
as it enveloped her
body and soul
and OH!
So much more
she felt her body
burn in lust
and in total
her emotions
were no longer hers to
contol
After the darkness
that was with her now
decided it wanted to feast
she felt the teeth
enter her moist tender skin
and felt the darkness
begin to suck
the life away
the life she once
held dear to her
She felt her heart
ablaze with the fire
of lust and wanted
ever so much more
of him
But she could not
take the strain
as she passed out
morning came
and a man was hovering
over her
and whispered
"My master wishes to know
if you enjoyed yourself
last night with him."
She shook her head
"yes'
For that was all she could do
at the moment
the man got up to leave
but turned around
bent next to her ear
and whispered
"You and he will be seeing
a lot more of each other
because you carry
the darkness
within you
you carry his child
be not afraid
When the time comes
we will help you
deliver"
again she shook her head
surprised at the news
But happy too
that she will be seeing more
of the darkness
when it becomes dusk again...
UNTITLED
I fall asleep
With beauty all around
The morning sun
Glistening
Off leaves
That the
Raindrops
Have touched
The night before
The essense of
A rainbow
Soon develops
Though there be
No pot of gold
At the end of
This rainbow
I know
But someone
I treasure
More dearly
Than life itself
My only one
And her
Name is
UNTITLED
I have no excuse to use,
or no Blame to pass,
as such as all things are provided for
in this weird scheme we all call life,
The fields of green...
blue of the seas....
and finally the Purple Hazy skies....
that surrounds us all,
deep within where
we truly do live our hearts..
And I do pass down to you
those i am blessed to call friends,
my words...thoughts and recollection
HAPPY HALLOWEEN
When the headless man
Comes knocking at your door
When the gremlins
And the witches come out
To play
Do not be afraid
Because as sure as the
Full moon is shining
And the light is
Glaring on you
Letting you know
That someone is
Thinking of you
And protecting you
And that even though
The darkness may
Surround you
Just remember
You have a friend
Should you need him
All you have to do
Is turn around
And there I'll be...
UNTITLED
People who end up
putting down others
for sheer enjoyment
have but to look
in the mirror
and then see if they
are perfect enough
to continue
if by chance
they are not
then they must look
at the person
in a deep and
positive way
rather than negative
we are all here
to help one another
so let's start
today...
