what did they do to you, my friend

what did they do............my friend

you spoke a different language

but we understood

we were right here waiting for you

when the darkness fell upon you

we were holding the torch waiting

waiting for you to take our hand

my friend, my friend....

what have they done to you, my friend

the light in your eyes shone brightly

as ours once did

your heart beat

as ours once did

your mind thought

as ours once did

Sadness Falls

 

Sing with the fire

as it burns through

daylight

 

Dance with the sun

as it drowns in the night

 

By this time in the

yesterday you’ll know

the way the wind moves

and how the pale stars echo

far past the skyline

 

Listen close to the storm

as my sadness falls

Sounding off in order

one by one

 

My madness floats

in like a breeze on a

frozen day as

your love leaves

my soul like it

did again the other day

only to creep back in

like a stealthy thief that

lost his crown to a beggar

on the street

Let,,,,go

I just can't let go

never,never,,,let go

you know this, yet you continue

it's important to me

and to all who can't see

the time is here

to bring you near

I just can't let go

all the power of you

all the words I said

and the truth came through

I just can't let go

there's a part of me

straight to the heart of me

that calls to be heard

and I know the light will flicker

as a candle looses flame

as I stand and call your name

I just can't let go

I just can't let go

and you know, you know

you know, you know

never ever let go

Quiet Moment

 

Tell me a story

Something I want to hear

What have you got for me

Whisper it in my ear

 

How does it begin

Put your arms around me

Does the hero win

Will it astound me

 

Is it a comedic drama

Is it an old legend

Is it a fantasy saga

I don't want it to end

 

Refuge

 

Cover my eyes from harm

In the haven of your arms

 

Can you make me feel secure

Through the storm I must endure

 

Will you protect me if

I connect with you

 

All I want is

Refuge

Can't sleep. So, write poetry

 

 

"The night angel sets sight again

But a tortured soul continues on ticking

While the content rest at peace

My mind receives a relentless hate whipping

For some sleep is as soft as the wind

But my brain tosses its' continuous bickering

 

What I would give to sleep

As I lay

What I would give to not grieve

With dismay

What I would give to

Have it my way

 

Sleep is precious for some

Too precious for others."

Puzzled is the mind

Felt in morning light

The pieces falling together

While fear lies in wait

of where to go

and how to escape

 

Peace comes into play

and throws a wrench

right in the day

 

Mine ears do listen

and feel you near

I've come to replace

all the fear

 

On my shoulders

you may confide

of all those times

you want to hide

The times of confusion

and let downs

 

In me, is where

your emotions may drown

Will you take my hand

and make our stake on this foreign land

On the surface of the painting

All is broad strokes and vibrant hues

As is my cynical nature

I look deeper for subterfuge

 

Finding a philosophy inside

That speaks of uncommon virtue

I open myself to the art

By seeking a new point of view

I haven' felt so alive in so long

Until you arrived with your song

I've looked around and all I see

are people babbling words to me

but between the gaps of your words

is where my story is heard

 

So meet me where the spirits fly

Way, way, way, way up high

and tell me your deepest desires

so we may rekindle the fires

 

I will tell you my story

in bits and pieces, drabs and blurbs,

like "It's impossible for it not to be possible"

and that will eventually be heard

 

Holding a key in hand

is what I need

Some things are forced

and others evolve over time

Mine being the latter, borrowed from you

 

So meet me where our spirits fly

Way, way, way, way up high

Way, way, way, up high

So deep, deep, deep down below

we will travel

and watch as time

unravels...

In return for your generosity

 

No question is beyond curiosity

Everything I am is open to you

Equivocal, never again

Don't let go of me until I say when

 

Tell me who you really are inside

Reveal what you feel you have to hide

Uncover your hopes and dreams

Tell me about possibilities

Hold nothing back from me

I'm gonna be here, now

Gonna be there, then

And was there, when

When it all began

 

See the cataclysmic event

That set forth

the human escape

Churned the lands

and sea alike

All of it blew my mind

 

Tick, tick, ticking of time

Sun so bright

Sound not quite right

So rewrite the beginning

Erase the end

Only to begin again

 

You can't see

what it's done to me

 

The here and now

the was and when

the there and then

of when it all began

You wouldn't be a fool to stick around

I need you here

to hear your sound

a smile wipes across my face

from every message you send my way

those words are written to form my song

hopefully you will sing along

 

So stay here, stay here, stay here please

This tiny heart needs a reprieve

so stay here stay here, stay here please

This tiny mind needs to conceive

 

When time goes on as it always does

I need you near, to feel your love

it doesn't take much to satisfy

a few kind words to fall upon ears

just a few of your words

can erase those fears

 

So stay here, stay here, stay here please

This tiny heart needs a reprieve

So stay here, stay here, stay here please

This tiny mind needs to conceive

You underestimate the size

of your heart and mind

You're pulled in every way

with so little time

But your words always say

how rare you are inside

 

I wish I could give you

some of my energy

or inspiration

to refuel your battery

for I respect your

creativity

Do you think your words aren't being heard?

Do you think this thread is dead?

Come over here, babe.

Listen to this instead:

 

Dust yourself off

Open your eyes

Come over here

And revolutionize

 

Write something new

Get us to talk

Tell us if you think

Dom is hot

 

What are you

Waiting for

Ignite the fire

In your core

 

Come out of that

Musty cage

Come over here

And take the stage

 

I'm all ears

baby

I'm all ears

 

:happy:

So much more than meets the eye

perhaps yours, I should avoid

those jealous pangs of vacant stares

leaves you here, not over there

 

Soften the glass with the seas of time

know there is more than monotonous grind

right now is revolution

revolution of all time

we live in a moment

where light meets dark

and somehow think they're worlds apart

 

So meet us here, speak with heart

Right here is the beginning

Right now...the start

:LOL: I concur. Of course, I like yours better than the one I put together on lunch break -

 

Step outside yourself

The word is more than vanilla and chocolate

Try a new path home

Taste the flavor you haven't bought

 

Find something red

Give it a closer look

Touch it, I dare you

Go past the cover of the book

 

Step off the busy walk

Breathe in deep

Look at all the people

Each thinking - 'See Me!'

 

Buy a pretty flower

Give it to an elder

Watch a clear sunrise

Smile at a stranger

 

So, come on RH. Kick it up a notch! :happy:

I know you've been wronged

that's easy to see

Just wanted you to know the otherside

that's me

 

Reach out your hand

that's all it takes

If you want change

start with yourself

cast light upon a darkened room

turn around the fear and gloom

 

If you want silence and loneliness

there is plenty to spare

the longer you are there

the less you are here

 

So do what you will

it's your choice

but when you're here

you can raise your voice

 

Puppeteers

 

Man the stage

Strike the band

The time has come

to control the land

 

Stretch the fingers

raise puppets erect

move feet and hands

tilt their heads

and man the tongue

 

The same picture replays

and replays

The movements predictable

until the one

comes to life with no strings

and tugs at the others strings

pulling them free

 

With the balance shifted

the puppeteers look astonished

surprised, perplexed, and vexed

"Gather them" they say

But the lowly little puppets say

"No way!"

Being deep and that

 

 

 

I lovingly bring warmth and cool at the same time

 

I take life and love and leave you behind

 

I forge the path where two worlds combine

 

I relentlessly linger in the corners of the mind

 

I hold you and the gone in an unbreakable bind

 

I wait for you devotedly, for the clock stops to wind.

I will cover your eyes from harm

When Darkness sounds it's alarm

We will learn to run and hide

with pen and paper we learn to confide

Those broken pieces of life we see

Please, oh please, run to me

I will surround with warmth and passion

to erase the anger in stealthy fashion

We can't turn around, we must go through

this is how I feel, The Me and The You

 

:stunned:

Change is what you need

like a soft spring rain

Don't close yourself off

Let go of the pain

 

Change is an open door

and not always pretty

Tell me all about

who you used to be

 

Change is not a poison

and you are not a weed

I only see a wildflower

and sun is what you need

As minds begin to oscillate

Feel the heat

they generate

that pendulum

between Love and Hate

and interference purposely directed

of mind numbing madness

that can be corrected

the ebb and flow

of energy

in which we swim

on which we feed
