Pretend
To be transported back in time
To another place
To languish in your arms
Reveling in the trace
You inside of me
Our bodies intertwined
Savoring each moment
I cannot tell yours from mine
Pulsating animal like and raw
I look into your face
I am just a vessel
Your are off somewhere in space
This moment I hold as special
Is nothing more than a game
I could be anyone
You treat us all the same
Pretend as you take me
That I'm the only one
For this will soon be over
With the morning...
To another place
To languish in your arms
Reveling in the trace
You inside of me
Our bodies intertwined
Savoring each moment
I cannot tell yours from mine
Pulsating animal like and raw
I look into your face
I am just a vessel
Your are off somewhere in space
This moment I hold as special
Is nothing more than a game
I could be anyone
You treat us all the same
Pretend as you take me
That I'm the only one
For this will soon be over
With the morning...

My secret place
How lovely is my garden
With its sweet perfume
Silken rose petals
Bursting forth in bloom
How lovely is my garden
The one I carry inside
Filled with luscious flowers
My own beauty that I hide
How lovely is my garden
It is my secret place
Not shared with the outside world
Displayed in a lovely vase
How lovely is my garden
I invite you to come inside
The glorious smells wafting
The riches it does provide
How lovely is my garden
Awaiting your arrival
Come inside and bask
For you...
With its sweet perfume
Silken rose petals
Bursting forth in bloom
How lovely is my garden
The one I carry inside
Filled with luscious flowers
My own beauty that I hide
How lovely is my garden
It is my secret place
Not shared with the outside world
Displayed in a lovely vase
How lovely is my garden
I invite you to come inside
The glorious smells wafting
The riches it does provide
How lovely is my garden
Awaiting your arrival
Come inside and bask
For you...

Morning Star
Morning air envelops me
With the promise of a new day
The North star still twinkling
I kneel and humbly say
Thank you God for this day
And all others I may receive
I come to you and humbly pray
Your gifts I will receive
The gift of my children who
I will hold again today
The blessing and wonders through
The promises that were made
I am not the religious kind
No alter do I adorn
I simply know that I find
Every day a miracle is born
With the promise of a new day
The North star still twinkling
I kneel and humbly say
Thank you God for this day
And all others I may receive
I come to you and humbly pray
Your gifts I will receive
The gift of my children who
I will hold again today
The blessing and wonders through
The promises that were made
I am not the religious kind
No alter do I adorn
I simply know that I find
Every day a miracle is born

Skinny Bitch
Hey girl, keep walkin
Cuz you are a skinny bitch
No need for talkin
Pretty, tall and slender
My ideal personified
You are a villainous offender
Without realizing your sin
I turn my eyes away
Your only transgression is that you are thin
Cuz you are a skinny bitch
No need for talkin
Pretty, tall and slender
My ideal personified
You are a villainous offender
Without realizing your sin
I turn my eyes away
Your only transgression is that you are thin

Sleep eludes me
The midnight hour entraps me
No sleep will I find
Tossing askew and turning
I attempt to unwind
Eluding is the slumber
Dark and deep divine
Nights left to outnumber
Too many to define
Guide me to peaceful respite
Oh my God my light
Help me with my plight
Bless my sleep tonight
No sleep will I find
Tossing askew and turning
I attempt to unwind
Eluding is the slumber
Dark and deep divine
Nights left to outnumber
Too many to define
Guide me to peaceful respite
Oh my God my light
Help me with my plight
Bless my sleep tonight

The place I seek
Ethereal light golden
Hinder not my gaze
Clarity so bolden
Lift the dreary haze
Angels abide for all to see
Sweet blessings floating
Therein no mystery
Mortals are bestowing
Angelic Realm soothe me
Cloud of air divine
Lift me to the place I seek
Grant me now a sign
Hinder not my gaze
Clarity so bolden
Lift the dreary haze
Angels abide for all to see
Sweet blessings floating
Therein no mystery
Mortals are bestowing
Angelic Realm soothe me
Cloud of air divine
Lift me to the place I seek
Grant me now a sign

Peaches
Lazing in bed on a hot summer day
Remembering the way we used to play
Dripping with sweat but undeterred
Moaning and groaning without words
Those days are gone now
I have looked far and wide
I never realized how
Our interludes would die
Like a fresh peach left too long on a tree
Indelibly marked for the bin
I imagined you and me
And these days would never end
But rot they did, now a distant memory
Those days of pleasure haunt me still
Sometimes in my mind’s eye I see
Sometimes my body still thrills ...
Remembering the way we used to play
Dripping with sweat but undeterred
Moaning and groaning without words
Those days are gone now

Our interludes would die
Like a fresh peach left too long on a tree
Indelibly marked for the bin
I imagined you and me
And these days would never end
But rot they did, now a distant memory
Those days of pleasure haunt me still
Sometimes in my mind’s eye I see
Sometimes my body still thrills ...

Gypsy Queen
She is a gypsy through and through
Dressed in emerald green
Her gift is foretelling your future
Yet hers remains unseen
Beautify gypsy why do you cry
The universe has something for you
A greater purpose is your destiny
If only you really knew
Your power lies in the cards
The future has yet to be revealed
The day is coming soon
When the gypsy will be healed
Upon her head a golden crown
Ethereal is her light
Struggling between wrong and right
Sometimes clouds her sight
Wait and see gypsy...

Your power lies in the cards

The day is coming soon
When the gypsy will be healed
Upon her head a golden crown
Ethereal is her light
Struggling between wrong and right
Sometimes clouds her sight
Wait and see gypsy...

My Cloak
This morning when I awoke
Waiting for me to open my eyes
My invisible cloak
Awaiting my return
As I rose from my slumber
The pain in my chest was palpable
It’s true, I can’t remember
A time when I was free
Free from the shackles of affliction
Unfettered from this pain
Because heartache is my companion
It will not set me free
It beckons to me even in my sleep
With deep set eyes and pallid skin
Even when I dream
I know it is pending my return
For it has but one mission ...
Waiting for me to open my eyes
My invisible cloak
Awaiting my return
As I rose from my slumber
The pain in my chest was palpable
It’s true, I can’t remember
A time when I was free
Free from the shackles of affliction
Unfettered from this pain
Because heartache is my companion
It will not set me free
It beckons to me even in my sleep
With deep set eyes and pallid skin
Even when I dream
I know it is pending my return
For it has but one mission ...

Right or Wrong
The pain I feel reminds
Me that I am alive
If it does not subside
I want to die
Death with its haunting eyes
Death with no disguise
Tempting me with lies
No more pain no more wrong or right
Me that I am alive
If it does not subside
I want to die
Death with its haunting eyes
Death with no disguise
Tempting me with lies
No more pain no more wrong or right
