"Riding my Bike"

2013-07-09T04:53:00.000-07:00

Look at me go
I'm riding a bicycle
It's so much more fun
Than that small little tricycle
I go up the driveway
And then I turn back
It isn't so hard
I think I've got the knack
The feel of the wind
On my face a quite like
Nothing compares to it
-Rinding my bike

A Boat on the Sea

2013-06-13T03:37:00.002-07:00

A BOAT on the sea, my boat,

Eager and frail!
Sweet skies, smile as you look
On that fairy sail.

Waves, great waves, many years
You have worked your will.
Just while she passes through,
Kind waves, be still.

Winds—and I may not ask
That you never blow,
But spare her the moaning note
That the old boats know.

I am your parent you are my child
I am your quiet place, you are my wild
I am your calm face, you are my giggle
I am your wait, you are my wiggle
I am your audience, you are my clown
I am your London Bridge, you are my falling down
I am your Carrot Sticks, you are my licorice
I am your dandelion, you are my first wish
I am your water wings, you are my deep
I am your open arms, you are my running leap
I am your way home, you are my new path
I am your dry towel, you are my wet bath
I am your dinner you are my chocolate cake
I am your bedtime, you are my wide awake
I am your finish line, you are my race
I am your praying hands, you are my saving grace
I am your favourite book, you are my new lines
I am your nightlight, you are my sunshine
I am your lullaby, you are my peek-a-boo
I am your kiss goodnight, you are my I love you

Come and Save me! !

2013-04-11T23:39:00.003-07:00

Oh, come and save me, now
I cannot bear this pain
My dreams torment me
My hopes make me cry
I've nothing left here,
As you left me lonely
Oh, come and save me
I dip in the griefs,
That you gave me
I die in my soul
Befriend with my pains
Oh, come and save me, now
The shadows of lonliness
That separate me from you
I've lost my sleep
When you left me
And I cry in my blues
can you see my griefs
From above blue skies
Oh, come and save me, now
I hate this emptiness
In that now I'm going through
I've no paths before my eyes
To reach there in your side
In the azure skies......
Oh, come and save me, now......
Come to my soul again
And save me from this hell...

Grandmas Wings

2013-04-10T01:17:00.000-07:00

Grandma I wonder
where you keep your wings.

Are they hung in your closet
with the rest of your things?

Do you put them away
and just use them at night

or give them to Rosie
to polish up bright.

I know you have wings,
for this must be true,

'cause God always gives
them to Angels just like you.

Live your dream...

2013-02-20T01:14:00.001-08:00

I sleep in the clouds, dream in the sky,
I'll keep dreaming as life passes me by,
I think my dreams keep me sane,
I dream of happiness, a life without pain,
some people say I'm stuck in this place,
and I'll never go anywhere,
but in my dreams I've already been there,
I know some day I'll have to wake up,
but I feel the real world is more like a nightmare,
I'm safe in my closed eye wonderland,
this poem goes to all the dreamers that understand,
no matter what they say...
keep your dreams but don't dream your life away,

Freedom

2012-04-09T00:15:00.001-07:00

I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I told you so
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone else I've got to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man

All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take

Under The Bridge

2012-04-05T23:26:00.001-07:00

I don't ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way (yeah yeah yeah)
Ooh no (no no yeah yeah)
Love me I say yeah yeah

Under the bridge downtown
Is where I drew some blood
Under the bridge "
I could not get enough
Under the bridge "
Forgot about my love
Under the bridge "
I gave my life away (yeah yeah yeah)
Ooh no (no no yeah yeah)
Here I stay yeah yeah

Here I stay...

For My Country

2012-04-05T00:57:00.002-07:00

Like a vision
That I keep inside
A memory locked away
No borderlines
No enemies
No religion to betray

I have felt the change
And it hurts me too
That no distance can deny

This is for my country
Still battered and still bruised
I´ve come to offer all I can
I will fight for you
I will fight for you

Color In Your Life

2012-04-04T01:01:00.000-07:00

I wanna be the color that's in your life,
and you make love electrical,
welcome to the festival

Facing towards still rose dawn,
intuition leads you on
You're all dressed up in dreams,
in a liquid limousine
Dance inside the dreamer's circle,
I'm waiting for you,
escape your life of black and white

Words Can Change Your Life

2011-11-28T04:09:00.000-08:00

Words are all that we can say

They change your life or just a day

It all depends upon the way we say them

Words can sparkle like a star

In a letter from afar

It doesn't matter where you

Are they touch you

Words dancing in your head

Words you'd wish you'd said

When you hod the chance to say them

Words whispered in the night

Makes the world seem right

When you're looking for the answers

Words when the day has gone

Sometimes linger on

And haunt you like a love song

Living your Dreams

2011-11-21T00:06:00.000-08:00

When I go away and leave you behind
Please don’t stop living your dreams

To show your feelings; to let others know you care
To be happy, to be able to give in to the feeling.

When you are disappointed; say it, don’t hide
Don’t ever be afraid to live the dream you want

Go forward, try to make things better for you.
You will be surprised at the results you show

Don’t ever take on more than you can bear
And if you do, there is always another day

Don’t ever feel like there is no tomorrow
Take life one day at a time and live that dream

Don’t ever feel guilty about my going away
What’s done is done. You made me happy.

Learn from our love and live your dream ....

Shadow...

2011-05-23T23:21:00.000-07:00

Living in the shadow
Of someone else's dream
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
Living in a nightmare
A never ending sleep
But now that I am wide awake
My chains are finally free
Don't feel sorry for me...

I give my Heart

2011-05-07T04:53:00.000-07:00

You're the first thing i think of
each morning when i rise.
you're the last thing i think of
each night before i close my eyes.
you're in each thought i have
and every breathe i take.
my feelings are growing stronger
with every move that you make.
i want to prove that I Love You,
but thats the hardest part.
So I'm giving you all i have to give.
to you i give my Heart...

Love Moves In Mysterious Ways

2011-05-03T09:24:00.000-07:00

Love moves in mysterious ways
It's always so surprising
When love appears over the horizon
I'll love you for the rest of my days
But still it's a mystery
How you ever came to me
Which only proves
Love moves in mysterious ways

I miss you

2011-04-20T12:26:00.000-07:00

Where are you and I'm so sorry
I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight
I need somebody and always
This sick strange darkness comes creeping on so haunting everytime
And as I stared I counted the webs from all the spiders
catching things and eating their insides
Like indecision to call you
And hear your voice of treason
Will you come home and stop this pain tonight
stop this pain tonight

Don't waste your time on me your already the voice inside my head

I miss you miss you

Up in the air

2011-04-13T01:28:00.000-07:00

Up in the air when you're with me
Down in the dumps when you're gone
You're out of sight, my day becomes night
Everything seems to go wrong

I'm like a child when you're with me
Emotions I cannot contain
You walk beside me, happiness drives me
Everthing seems right as rain

I'm like a lamp in the corner
Goes out whenever you're gone
You disappear, then when you reappear
The lamp in the corner comes on

Mold me and make me to please you
That's how I want it to be
I won't complain if you make me a clown
Long as you care for me

I'm like a lamp in the corner
Goes out whenever you're gone
You disappear, then when you reappear
The lamp in the corner comes on

Mold me and make me to please you
That's how I want it to be
I won't complain if you make me a clown
Long as you care for me...

My Mind's Eye

2011-04-12T09:03:00.000-07:00

If you were here
I'd whisper sweet nothings in your ear
And appeal to all your fears
If you were mine *If you were only mine*
I'd bring you so much further down
And twist your mind until the end of time

You will never realize
What darkness lies inside
inside my mind

Falling in Love With Love

2011-03-06T13:37:00.001-08:00

I weave with brightly colored strings
To keep my mind off other things
So, ladies, let your fingers dance
And keep your hands out of romance

Lovely witches
Let the stitches
Keep your fingers under control
Cut the thread, but leave
The whole heart whole...

Path Of Peace

2011-03-02T23:45:00.000-08:00

pixdaus.com

Peace is an easy path to tread
Peace is where our fears are mislaid
Peace is beginning to restore
Peace for each man, woman and child
Peace for the troubled streets gone wild
Peace is for the old and the young
Peace in the end will overcome
Peace builds trust into a lifestyle
Peace is a friendly open hand
Peace is a place to understand
Peace in the end will overcome
Peace is for the old and the young
Peace is a legacy to leave
Peace is when we don't have to grieve
Peace is and end to all the hate
Peace is why we negotiate
Peace for all the victims of war

By Paul Mc Cann

BECAUSE OF YOU

2011-03-01T13:15:00.000-08:00

Because of you
my world is now whole,
Because of you
love lives in my soul.
Because of you
I have laughter in my eyes,
Because of you
I am no longer afraid of good-byes.
You are my pillar
my stone of strength,
With me through all seasons
and great times of length.
My love for you is pure
boundless through space and time,
it grows stronger everyday
with the knowledge that you'll always be mine.
At the altar
I will joyously say 'I do',
for I have it all now
and it's all because of you

Eyes Sight

2011-02-28T13:40:00.000-08:00

If you could only see yourself through my eyes,
You would never, I bet, let me out of your sight.

I hope you dance

2011-01-14T09:41:00.000-08:00

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances
But they're worth taking
Lovin' might be a mistake
But it's worth making
Don't let some hell bent heart
Leave you bitter
When you come close to selling out
Reconsider
Give the heavens above
More than just a passing glance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)
