Suicide Kid

As she read the note aloud
Her voice clear and loud
'This is what she wrote
Her suicide note'
There were gasps all through the air
For everyone seemed to care
They said she was so great
But their compliments were too late
Her note read like this
'Nothing in my life is bliss
And no one sees the tears I cry
You will only care once i die
Perfection was only a minor concern
Love is what I yearn
This pain you say you now feel
Is probably not even real
As you sit there and moap or gloat
What you just read was my suicide note'
No words were spoken
No silence broken

O Flame of Living Love

O flame of living love,
That dost eternally
Pierce through my soul with so consuming heat,
Since there's no help above,
Make thou an end of me,
And break the bond of this encounter sweet.

O burn that burns to heal!
O more than pleasant wound!
And O soft hand, O touch most delicate,
That dost new life reveal,
That dost in grace abound,
And, slaying, dost from death to life translate!

O lamps of fire that shined
With so intense a light,
That those deep caverns where the senses live,
Which were obscure and blind,
Now with strange glories bright,
Both heat and light to his beloved give!

The 'Right' Life

People work so hard
To get the “right” life
They go to college
Through all the strife
They graduate
And then get married,
And before long
A baby’s carried

They slave away at work
Day after day,
All that matters
Is the pay
The couples grow bitter,
They can’t fight the force
And before long
They file for divorce

Then you’re on your deathbed
From all the years of smoking,

While night animals were frolicking around outside

While night animals were frolicking around outside
you came to lie against me,
with stars shining brightly in the dark sky

and you wanted me to recite some poems.
Outside the wind rustled the potato trees,
you came to lie against me

while the golden moon for a time was wavering
and everything was pitch black around me.
Outside the wind rustled the potato trees,

before sleep eventually led me away
and jasmine, lavender and gardenia was on the wind
and everything was pitch black around me.

but in no dreams I could find you,
you waited wide-awake for first light
and jasmine, lavender and gardenia was on the wind

To Eva

O Fair and stately maid, whose eye
Was kindled in the upper sky
At the same torch that lighted mine;
For so I must interpret still
Thy sweet dominion o'er my will,
A sympathy divine.

Ah! let me blameless gaze upon
Features that seem in heart my own,
Nor fear those watchful sentinels
Which charm the more their glance forbids,
Chaste glowing underneath their lids
With fire that draws while it repels.

Thine eyes still shined for me, though far
I lonely roved the land or sea,
As I behold yon evening star,
Which yet beholds not me.

This morn I climbed the misty hill,

Slip Away

Eptiness comes around
you're standing here alone
the fabrication of your life
it only brings you down
you're such a long way from home

A soul lost that can't be found
looking deep inside of you
there's nothing left anymore
you let it all slip away
there's nothing left for you to do

You stood at a rivers edge
as you watch yourself drown
thinking about the past
how you use to have it all
believing you would never fall
the sun always shined your way

But nothing here sometimes never last

Nature & Its Beauty

beauty is nature in all it's glory,
preaching us a lot of story.

fall, winter, summer & spring,
the site of the nature is a beautiful thing.

as the sun sets my heart did rise,
the stars shined within the skies.

my soul glowed as the wind stirred,
my breath caught at a sound of a bear.

little animals moving through in night,
climbing, slithering, roaring in flight.

darkness en wrapped me with a comforting touch,
oh i love this nature so much.

filled with happiness & desperate love,
nature has adorn this beautiful earth.

Mary

Mary came to me
like a Angel in a dream
as beautiful as a winter snow
coming down in December
with a smile I can't get off my mind
and now all I know
she's a face to remember
in this lonely crowd
an angel in a cloud

And if I seen her walk on by
she's where I would want to go
here forever by her side
is where I would want to hide

Mary is a woman
every girl would want to be
she could make a man
turn around
think a angel has come down

Lean On Me

Lean On Me
I was weak and intoxicated
Lost count after the fourth mixed concoction
Empowering me
A social butterfly and a lush
I bloomed into

Lean On Me
Hermione finally relaxed
Without working hard to be socially accepted
The sun shined after a gargantuan storm
I am not alone
A difficult week passed
Another one awaits with the holidays
Just another day in the year
Somehow I endured the long haul train ride home
On a eerie Sunday night
Sleeping a dreamless sleep
Nearly missing my stop
Without interruption

I Won't Be Left Behind

I run my fastest
But still got beat
I land on my head
When i should be on my feet
I try to move forward
But i'm stuck in rewind
Why don't i keep at it.
I won't be left behind

The harder i am thrown
The higher i bounce
I give it my all
and that's all that's counts
In first place, i seldon find
so i push to the limit
I won't be left behind

Some people tell me you can't
Some say don't
Some simply give up
