Conversations   ( In collaboration with Diddi )

Frays on edges of memories
Torn ragged and worn
It stretches its spitefulness
Within the threads
Of remembered kisses
And spoken words
Of love, for you have loved then
Lingering caresses of desire
Of answered needs
Echoes and re-echoes
In the halls of your memories
For a while be with me
In Maya space and speak

Too many times
I've died inside
the spectre of I
in this shell does reside ,
too many times
alone I've cried
the hollow tones of the ones
I can still hear their lies ,
so with you for this once
and more I'd fly
as I have not an ounce
of life that's mine .

Hush dont say your life
Is not yours, for it is
With your life you love
Those you sired
Look within your inner fire
Ignite them to warm
The heart thats gone cold
To stand in strength
With your sword and shield
Your crest of pride
And rise above and beyond
The puny scratches of affronts

Everyday that I awake
I'm scared of each hour
that time creates ,
I dread the not knowing
the evil one she's growing
but I have to keep on going
for my boys , I can't break .

Do not dance against the chance
Of breaking with this calamity
Or flirt with doubts
On your capacity for tenacity
For to lose your strength
Because of one
Suffer will the other two.

A survivor
I am
all my life
I've dealt with shams ,
avaricious women  ,
accusations spinning
with my kids I am a winner
and a very happy man   ,
I need my girl
she's one third of my world
and if I don't get her
I'm going down .

Faith you must have
For powers that be
Her smile to greet you
Good Morning each day
Her hugs and kisses
On daddys face
She'll set her free
Soon, youll see

Hope springs eternal
my tears burn
from the inner inferno ,
I hope time brings
her home in all my
tomorrows,
the sooner the better
to quell my sorrows .

In all your tomorrows
Yes she will be
Quell your sorrow
Dry your inner tears
Be joyful for she
stands under the same blue sky
Thinking of you
And loving you
As always.

Well for now
I have you ,
in the maya
where all skies are blue
and forever's
our saviour
and I can touch
the view ,
of your regalia ,
where I escape to
away from my failures.
