Pitiful, Just Plain Pitiful
The honeymooners ebulliently chat
having breakfast in an Inn’s café
spying a geriatric couple in another booth
eating in silence
never glancing the other’s way
newlyweds replete with optimistic youth
say “we’ll never become like that…
we’ll love each other come what may”
Fast forward 29 years
middle-aged man sits alone
having breakfast in an Inn’s café
digesting thoughts of regret and fears
remembers the aged, stoic pair
viewing their state in a different way
however dispassionate they appeared
at the very least...

Temporary Lovers
On diverging roads
Inevitably live with some kind of regret
Inevitably live with some kind of regret

Sorry, Again
How does it feel
to know what you think before you've said it
How does it feel
to know what you feel before you blow it
What’s it like
to know you’ve got the answers right
What’s it like
to go to bed content at night
How does it feel
to know what you want before you hurt it
How does it feel
to know what you need before you’ve lost it
What’s it like
to always know you’ve done your best
What’s it like
to know you’re gonna pass the test
I’m sorry
My foot got in my mouth...
to know what you think before you've said it
How does it feel
to know what you feel before you blow it
What’s it like
to know you’ve got the answers right
What’s it like
to go to bed content at night
How does it feel
to know what you want before you hurt it
How does it feel
to know what you need before you’ve lost it
What’s it like
to always know you’ve done your best
What’s it like
to know you’re gonna pass the test
I’m sorry
My foot got in my mouth...

tell me this?
why would you wait
on life while flowers
are burning in agony
on life while flowers
are burning in agony

My Blood Donor
Ticking it wall clock
Right behind your front door knock knock
Dwelling in my misfortunes
A path on which I was trading is filled with these potholes
While I went solo
My self esteem is so low
Am dropping next bus stop
My luck's running out nonstop
Explaining why I was such a flop
God! So pessimistic, I can't bear this hold up
Feeling so high yesterday, it's all Disney in Sydney
Today all of a sudden it turns out a house of terror
Stranded forever in this loop hole
For what am saying is no...
Right behind your front door knock knock

Today all of a sudden it turns out a house of terror
Stranded forever in this loop hole

As She Walks In
As she walks in,
i would’ve tasted the fragrant ambrosia,
she’s like an alluring beauty from Polynesia,
I could’ve admired her in awe, yet I was looking away after the first glance,
sense of ravenous nature, yet the innocence left me in trance,
I should’ve embraced her elegance tightly in my arms,
but it’s her honestly of life, beds of thorny roses that was the alarms!
As she walks in,
I would’ve danced with her, I’m the devil in the pale moonlight,
swaying away gently, holding her tightly, through the night,
I could’ve charmed her, with...

Just a memory now
I’m dancing in the decay
As everything falls away
No change for a wicked man
Some things just won’t go away
So as it happens it begins
All things must come to an end
I’ve bathed in the blood and sin
Watch me kill the innocence
I burn to close to the flame
And only ashes remain
Where kids at one time had played
An empty man with no name
So if I like it or not
All things are going to rot
Stop seeking things best not sought
Accept the things that you’ve got
Pray no one comes to take them ...
As everything falls away
No change for a wicked man
Some things just won’t go away
So as it happens it begins
All things must come to an end
I’ve bathed in the blood and sin
Watch me kill the innocence
I burn to close to the flame
And only ashes remain
Where kids at one time had played
An empty man with no name
So if I like it or not
All things are going to rot
Stop seeking things best not sought
Accept the things that you’ve got
Pray no one comes to take them ...

Split
Split
I can’t wait to walk away!
But wait,
Please don’t go…
Back and fourth,
My mind is splitting.
And everyday, it shows…
I love you so much,
No, actually
I hate your guts…
But at the same time
I need you to feel whole.
Yesterday was perfect,
But today I’m not sure if it’s worth it,
It changes by the day…
I love you: I worship you,
But I want to walk away!
When you don’t do what I say,
When you can’t read my mind for me,
When you don’t constantly reassure me!?
All my love, turns to violent...
I can’t wait to walk away!
But wait,
Please don’t go…
Back and fourth,
My mind is splitting.
And everyday, it shows…
I love you so much,
No, actually
I hate your guts…
But at the same time
I need you to feel whole.
Yesterday was perfect,
But today I’m not sure if it’s worth it,
It changes by the day…
I love you: I worship you,
But I want to walk away!
When you don’t do what I say,
When you can’t read my mind for me,
When you don’t constantly reassure me!?
All my love, turns to violent...

Today I Saw a Man Who Should Not Die
Today I saw a man who should not die,
he wore the cuffs and shackles of white gown care,
thin fingers
fondling the button that triggers the pump
that feeds him smiles.
He bared his chest to show us the pipes
of great science running through him,
the pipes that feed him smiles.
Today I saw a man who sees pain
walking about the room, he has studied
and mastered it: when to press the button
to stop
the demon from jumping onto his bed
and still remain awake -- to dream.
...

Today I saw a man who sees pain
walking about the room, he has studied

and still remain awake -- to dream.
