Poet Introduction
I usually just write whenever I am inspired to do so
Country love
we ain't going anywhere tonight
sitting under the moon so bright
admiring you by the fire's light
Thinking of holding you tight
wanna give you kisses all night
but mums on the phone starting a fight
saying that all of this just ain't right
little girls should be in bed at night
not wondering the countryside late at night
making out with boys under the moonlight
her voice then raises to such a height
saying how people think "where such a sight"
And all of that nonsense just ain't right
With tears in my eyes I hold my phone tight...

Dying Rose
does a rose know what it feels like to die
to lose all of its family ties
to wilt up wither and fade away
to be no more upon another day
to feel nothing but the cold
to feel nothing but alone
to never swing in the breeze so gay
without a single care in the day
to sleep lazily at night
for others to behold its wondrous sight
instead this poor rose
knows such great woes
to not feel the light of life
but the sharp edge of a knife
placed now in a vase
for all to admire her case
slowly but surely she will tire ...

My Love
how can I want anything else
than to spend every waking moment with you
for you are perfection in my eyes
An incarnation of my imagination
bound to me you are
as bound to thee I am
yin and yang
two halves one whole
for surely you see your the other part to my soul
yes for you see you are my whole world
than to spend every waking moment with you
for you are perfection in my eyes
An incarnation of my imagination
bound to me you are
as bound to thee I am
yin and yang
two halves one whole
for surely you see your the other part to my soul
yes for you see you are my whole world

Attitude
Kisses in the dark
When u hold me close
I feel alive
So don’t let me go
Whispers slowly
As your hands
Move lower on me
No words of love
Just the skies
And us
I wont tell if u don’t
Take my lips
This will be our little secret
Ohhh oh oh
Later on u’ll brag to the boys
Later on I’ll blame it on the alcohol
U’ll call me saying u had a good time
Wanna do the same thing again
I’d listen to yuh
And whisper sweet nothings
Having u begging for more
All the while I’ll be laughing
How silly can a guy get...

You and Me
I just want to stay here all day and stare at your face
till night turns to day
And we both have to go our separate ways
And you can be sure I’ll be counting the hours
Till I get to see your smile yet again
For the days without you my love fill me with pain
I just want to stay here all day and stare at your face
till night turns to day
And we both have to go our separate ways
Yeah all I can do is sit here and wait
Until the day you would come yet again
I would you so tight
And we’ll sleep together through the night
And upon the daytime...
till night turns to day
And we both have to go our separate ways
And you can be sure I’ll be counting the hours
Till I get to see your smile yet again
For the days without you my love fill me with pain
I just want to stay here all day and stare at your face
till night turns to day
And we both have to go our separate ways
Yeah all I can do is sit here and wait
Until the day you would come yet again
I would you so tight
And we’ll sleep together through the night
And upon the daytime...

Voices
Have you heard the voices
The sounds in the wind
the creepy music that they make
sends a chill down your spine
Laughter sounds and gentle hands touch
only to find yourself
in an empty room
stripped of life
Withholding a scream
you run and flee
only to lose your way
in that haunting place
the shadows move
and the voices reach
a new crescendo
soft gentle caresses
that leaves your hair standing
keeps your feet moving
And then your out
looking around a desolate place
with only those voices
To guide you on your...

Sweet Insanity
I sit here staring at the clock
Every second that goes by
Seems to increase my insanity
More and more now till I'm fully losing my mind
Cause I hate it when I got to wait
I just hate not seeing your face
Cant stand it no more
There’s too many hrs to each damn day
Tick tock tick tock tick tock
Goes the hands of the clock
As it slowly ever so slowly drives me insane
Every second is a moment that
I could have been with you
Every moment my thoughts seem to fall on you
If this is wrong then I'm gonna hell with a smile on my...

Death
Some people embrace
death without a trace
Of fear upon their face
But nothing in this world
Can ever fill that space
When their souls fade
From this place
death without a trace
Of fear upon their face
But nothing in this world
Can ever fill that space
When their souls fade
From this place

Try and forget it
I can't help it
Try to forget it
Wanted to stop it
Stood there and watched it
No I couldn't help it
Try to make myself believe it
What i'm seeing
Cause someone's bleeding
My feelings are fleeting
Now I'm seething
As I see her bleeding
Her blood spills
Across the floor
As she trys to get to the door
Blood just keeps pouring out
I never even thought
For a second that I ought
To have stopped him
Just stood there and watched him
Yeah I should have stopped him
But I just stood there and watched him
Tears in her...

Don't
Don't trust too much
Don't love too much
Don't hope too much
Because that too much
Can hurt you so much
But guess what
You cant help trusting someone that much
You cant help it that you love someone that much
You cant help but hope that much
Because that one person means so much
Don't love too much
Don't hope too much
Because that too much
Can hurt you so much
But guess what
You cant help trusting someone that much
You cant help it that you love someone that much
You cant help but hope that much
Because that one person means so much

The body
There is a cold body over there
Her legs frozen she is numb to the world
She knows nothing feels nothing
Her thoughts have all left her
Her life had ended somewhere along the way
She had wondered for a lifetime looking for somewhere in which to stay
A place to call her very home a place she could be known.Turning her back on the past she had once set out to find such a land.But bitter and cruel is the world filled of endless nightmares.And so the girl who was already broken became nothing more than an empty shell so upon her death there was nothing left but merely her...
