A Soldiers Story
I spoke to a man
Who fought on the front line
he told me many stories
He told me of his change in time
standing trapped in endless visions
And the sounds when they attack
him drowning in a bloodbath
while carrying comrades on his back
With each breath
The smell of sulfur lingers
with images of blood and pain
He collects the tags among the fallen
They did not die in vain
Burning towns and villages
Blood-stained ground, oh! the slaughter
Of the Innocent women and children
fathers and mothers
...

Blood-stained ground, oh! the slaughter

Damned
Damned
Damn you
Whose soul is dark and enticing
I once walked aimlessly taking pleasure where I saw fit
Then you appeared in my path
Wrecking all sense of oneness of mind
Damn you
Whose tongue speaks the same vile dialect that renders me wicked
Those deep whispers you so expertly say to me
Damn you
Whose heart and soul you did bear to me once
I vowed to never fall for someone like I did for you
Damn you
Whose demands so easily opened my legs
Making my womanhood plead and seep for you sinister touch...

Her Little Sighs Tell -
I heard her in the darkness
that little sigh she does,
turning into tears
she cries,
her life becoming harder
than it needed to be,
in her sorrow
she quietly began to speak,
telling me that I was not
the man she wanted to feel
beside her, I was not the man
she wanted in her bed
listening to her sighs.
that little sigh she does,
turning into tears
she cries,
her life becoming harder
than it needed to be,
in her sorrow
she quietly began to speak,
telling me that I was not
the man she wanted to feel
beside her, I was not the man
she wanted in her bed
listening to her sighs.

Hello there !
How many times i fall for you love,
but you never catch me?
I convinced myself, its ;...
the worth of not looking handsome
yet many adores my looks.
the degree i obtained could work
yet the heart keeps breaking nonstop nor
the money i have is good enough to get you love
I gave up chasing you Love
i got empty.
my heart turned cold like it was in a freezer.
I crashed many souls as mine was dying
ended up with no joy.
I remembered you were missing
but searching for you i knew i wouldn't find you ...

Worry loves all
Worries cease our thoughts in shackles to break beneath strain. Hands sweat, the heart palps, some perish, some live. This, another frugal whim and tempt to try and regain.
And when worry is but an ornament around the neck, a fed famine now less in width and in length, from it's victory beaten is given till the next, earned of gain and renewed in strength.
A coffin buriest trials like an errant friend, till error he errors once more. Escape from hiding finds no peace for long or collateral to appease it's decatent taste of it's favored whore.
None earthly...

Not In Sight
No matter what I do.
I'm nothing to you.
Giving you my soul.
To meet your goal.
I know you don't care.
To you, I'm not there.
At the most.
I'm a ghost.
My footsteps make no sound.
When they hit the ground.
I walk on the air.
Here, there, everywhere.
I still attempt to run.
Trying to become someone.
I'm not that dense.
It won't make a difference.
A victory I'll never attain.
My efforts were in vain.
I'm nothing to you.
Giving you my soul.
To meet your goal.
I know you don't care.
To you, I'm not there.
At the most.
I'm a ghost.
My footsteps make no sound.
When they hit the ground.
I walk on the air.
Here, there, everywhere.
I still attempt to run.
Trying to become someone.
I'm not that dense.
It won't make a difference.
A victory I'll never attain.
My efforts were in vain.

A silent whim
How ironic it is,
that you can see life in her eyes,
when she talks about death.
that you can see life in her eyes,
when she talks about death.

Alone In A Crowd
She wanders through the crowd
As is she wasn't there.
No one acknowledges her presence
She is not but a breath of air.
She opens her mouth but no sound is heard.
She walks but leaves no footprint in the sand.
She feels no warmth within her heart
She hears no one call her name.
There's nothing more painful
As being alone in a crowd.
Nothing so crushing
As having no voice.
See her
Hear her
Feel her love
She has so much she wants to give.
As is she wasn't there.
No one acknowledges her presence
She is not but a breath of air.
She opens her mouth but no sound is heard.
She walks but leaves no footprint in the sand.
She feels no warmth within her heart
She hears no one call her name.
There's nothing more painful
As being alone in a crowd.
Nothing so crushing
As having no voice.
See her
Hear her
Feel her love
She has so much she wants to give.

Transparent Target
I can't see it there.
Yet, its mine to bear.
Be that as it may.
It marks me in some way.
So that I'm left out.
I have no doubt.
That it's on my forehead.
Or my back instead.
Somehow you can tell.
You see the target well.
That's why you don't relent.
Even though I'm spent.
Where did it originate?
What was the date?
If I only knew.
Maybe I could understand you.
Yet, its mine to bear.
Be that as it may.
It marks me in some way.
So that I'm left out.
I have no doubt.
That it's on my forehead.
Or my back instead.
Somehow you can tell.
You see the target well.
That's why you don't relent.
Even though I'm spent.
Where did it originate?
What was the date?
If I only knew.
Maybe I could understand you.

Nothing to proof
I can be the moon, sun and stars
I can paint your sky blue, black and white
Then the planets will be dully aligned
with your name written in the stars
I can be your armour; I can be your guard
I can be a god; so I'll give your life
Then I'd make you an angel; so you'll be immortalised
I can reset the rhythm to your weary heart
I can be the consolation to your teary eyes
I can be your heaven; I can be your earth
I can be this; I can be that
But nothing seems enough
To affirm my love
So now, I retire
Coz I'm...

Chasing Amy
It started out as an innocent flirtation
but when he and Amy's eyes met
and she smiled wide at him he knew
he had to have her for his own
To say that he was drawn to Amy
would clearly be an understatement
there was something about her that intrigued him but he couldn't say what
He went after her hard and fast
leaving her with no doubt he wanted her
but it didn't seem to matter much
he saw it was only driving them apart
It wasn't supposed be this way
Amy turned the chase into...

Regret of Men and Women
I regret when men
and women cheat
because they ruin it
for all the good men
and women out there
looking to get to
know each other
It's hard to do this
because we all fear
rejection or if they
will cheat on us
Remember one thing
Always treat the
Woman with:
Kindness and Respect
and women cheat
because they ruin it
for all the good men
and women out there
looking to get to
know each other
It's hard to do this
because we all fear
rejection or if they
will cheat on us
Remember one thing
Always treat the
Woman with:
Kindness and Respect
