Flowing Hearts

Remnants of a new society
Taking all our hard earned property
Showing the world their new philosophy
Destroying tyranny of the old monopoly

I believe in true monogamy
Fraying eyes will lead to bigotry
Love for all has not be lost on me
Yet my one true heart has not been shown to see

Am I a struggling soul for all eternity?
Missing prts for me to wholy be
The point of life is to live uncertainly
...until the world shows you your perfect destiny...

"Unusually writing of DKNY?"

Me... or the thought of me?

I like picture frames... but they symbolize borders. You're blocking everything in the outside in world beyond the walls of where you want to be. Rememberance of times held dear... a time capsule made for all to see. When time stands still I'll be drinking a cup of tea with my friend Bea... trice.

Me... or the thought of me?

Vivo en Ma-ho-pac. I'm free in the world... but where am I now? Am I here where you need me to be... or would that really need be where I need to be?

Me... or the thought of me?

I'm here as part of your side... standing here waiting for my role in the game. Hey, Coach... is it my turn now? Been ready for all time now... waiting for you is the past.

Me... or the thought of me?

Lovely brown locks now of gold shining luster... the thought of you now makes my heart float and fluster. It's cold out tonight, but as the stars shine so bright, don't give any light as you walk into my sight.

Me... or the thought of me?

Baby, you're a bitch... and I hate your guts. I wish I had something more heart-felt and romantic, but you suck so much I go back to the Titanic. You're hateful to a tee, you remind me of a bee... You reach into a flower, why do I end up with the thorn?

You... or the thought of you?

The thought of you makes me sick, sweetheart... or should I say, 'YOU'RE A PRICK!!' What's the deal with your hastiness towards me? I decided that I'm finally gonna go... 'I'M GONNA DO IT!! You'll find me in Kokomo!'

Baby, what's left for me to say right now? Actually, it's out of place, Kristina's afraid of clowns... Darling, my dear, I had to get that off my chest... I'm sorry to say, I'm definitely the best...

Sooooooo, you can't have me... The best of me is yet to come... all that's left for you is the thought of me...

The End...?

The Singing Hopeless Man

Hey baby, good morning. How nice of you to bare your soul. The night had hardly started when you all too soon departed... yet somehow you woke in my arms.

Hey baby, how nice of you to share the song. It's great to know what's on your mind, to put what's happened far behind. You said you couldn't find the words to explain the happenings absurd... but when you couldn't find your thoughts to say, I understood you anyway.

Hey baby, how are you today? What's on your mind? What's in your heart? What's happened since the sun has turned to dark.

Oh, deary, what are you doing now? Did you still have your heart set on the trip to see the clowns? It's been a while since we saw those guys... and all too long since those last goodbyes.

Dear Daisy, I hope this finds you well. Last time we spoke I saw the sun rise as your door slammed me in the face. Again my heart got in the way as I did not know exactly what to say... If I had a power under my control, I would take back what I stammered so, when I was gone and told to go... Next time I write I promise you that more than promises I can do...

Baby, this is the last song I could ever write about our 'love' that fateful night when the future seemed to begin to change as we both began to search for blame. The truth is I would never start to build a love within my heart... without a cause, without a reason... It's hard to believe it's the change of season. My love for you began to grow when facts were laid I did not know. I fell in love with the role they wrote for you... and you played your part to a 'T'. You did not have a simple clue, what was this poor boy supposed to do?... This time it's my heart that's crying for 'line'. What has happened between us is in the past... why couldn't that present forever last? What we could had might've been the best we have hoped for until we rest... But I still write you all the same, I hope this letter finds you well...

...oh wait... wish my my brother the best as well.

Rhyming Rhetoric

Sometime I think... "Will this last forever?"
With sleepless nights... and endless days...
I'm the foolish one... but when it's said and done...
Will I keep standing here... waiting for you to appear...
I'm the foolish one... and forget what I do...

My time like this is over...
I'm not seventeen...
I wipe my hands clean...
Won't last for too much longer...
...take what you can to get stronger...
'Cuz I'm foolish one...
...time for you to steal what you can grab...

So tired of being romantic...
...tired being romantic...
Time to be the maverick...
...and show the world...

That this feeling won't last forever...
...who I was just hit the lever...

And it's time to know...
...where ever you may go...
That you had this soul...
...treated like a hellhole...
Not much left to say...
...so it's time for me to roll...

My time like this is over...
I'm not seventeen...
I wipe my hands clean...
Won't last for too much longer...
...take what you can to get stronger...
'Cuz I'm foolish one...
...time for you to steal what you can grab...

Can't be bitter 'cuz I let myself down...
A man can only live for so long with his heart on his sleeve...
...and when it's on your sleeve...
...it's not hard to believe...
...that I was seventeen...
...and you could steal what you could grab...

You're My Heart

As I reflect upon the days we saw...
...laying beachside by the moon and shore...
...I promised you that I'd do everything...

...that it took....

...'til I wasn't the fool, that you met those years ago...
...when all that we fought was about the big pillow...
...I dream of you every time the spring breeze blows...
...'cuz, Sweets, you're my heart...

When I first saw you I was so alone...
...lost and tired, broken to the bone...
You promised me that you'd do everything...

...that it took...

...'til I was back on my feet, and one you could adore...
...when you finally said, "I don't mind it if you snore"...
...you dreamt of me everytime you heard the score...

...'til this day, Sweets, you're my heart...

Coming next week, you'll be dressed in white...
...walking slowly with father's arm...
...and at the end the there'll be a man in black...

...but I can't help but think, that you feel it's a mistake...
...holding his hand, will you look for an escape?...
...when it comes time to say those two simple words...

...remember, Sweets, you're my heart...

...you're my heart...
...you're my heart...

...Sweets, you're my heart...

Dream Sequence

I'm not here to face the future...
I have seen it through the past
I'm too scared to make you my present...
I'm afraid to see you go

I saw you in a dream I had...
Telling me of my woes
You told me of the fears I had...
The ones I've never shown

And in that dream I saw you...
...It still plays in my mind...
You told me of the fears you had...
Not one diff'rent from mine...

Yet still inside the dream I've had...
...and the words we shared aloud...
I found out what I had to hear
...and what I had to do...

'One man don't make an army
But I'm not here to fight a war
Please just take what I can give you...
...Don't tear my heart out on the floor...'

I cried the night I told you...
...of the dream we shared, out loud
I hung my head expecting...
...the noose, rejection, never came

Those four lines were unscripted,
As I held you in my arms...
...And cling, you would forever...
Unwritten love was ours

Q+A? Time to Dream Away

What happened to our future?
What happened to our past?
What happened to our present?
Where did it go so fast?

What happened to your boyfriend?
...the one you left me for?
What happened to your best friend?
...the one you called a whore?

When did you decide to call me?
Where were you when you did?
What prompted you to call me?
...was it my fault that you hid?

My life feels like a circle
I've seen this path before
The chance to return to it
Is not a chance to score

I fell for you not long ago
I gave to you my heart
But time was a virtue you did not need
To tear my love apart

How did you move on without me?
Who comforted you at night?
Were they not quite what you needed?
...or was I just an after thought?

My eyes are traveling bloodshot
Have not seen a pillow; not for days
My minds been trying to tell me
In about a hundred million ways

Should I stay or should I go?
Has that decision already been made?
Is that choice yet mine to choose?
...do I even have you to lose?

I figured out not long ago
You were not right for me
But the head cannot lie to the heart
For me, it's back to the start

Penance

I believe in me...
I believe in you...
Yet, I won't let you control what I do...

Whatever I say...
Whatever the words...

All I really mean...
Is that I love you...

Meaning...

My name, it doesn't matter...
...because I life a life of hope
I wake up every morning...
...I write a brand new song

...And then I fall asleep again...
...the whole day starts a new
Again a fall asleep again...
...and there's nothing I can do...

...These days it doesn't matter living hopelessness

I awoke this morning...
...and saw a man I didn't know
He was playing a string insrtument...
...but he didn't have his bow

So, he sat there in the corner...
...and played his fingers to the bone
And as he sat there in the corner...
...I pondered the great unknown...

...Still I lay here without meaning or desirement

I live a life in which I see...
...the same things every day
The same tree blowing in the wind...
...the same cat meowing by

And in a haste I drive by...
...many exits past my home
And in a haste I drive by...
...I've finally found my home...

...This time I control how I live forevermore...

One morning I awoken....
...to a girl I've seen before
Regret never had a chance...
...because I finally took a chance...

I walked into the other room...
...I picked our child up
...And as I walked into the other room...
...my life was filled with hope...

...And life as the immortal fool will dissapate...

As I Wish...

If things were to go as I wish,
My life would soon cease to exist
For night and day and day and night,
Only appear when you see the light.

If all my dreams were to come true,
You'd somehow know that I loved you
...And we'd share good times that all would see,
Yet the only doubts would be in me

If I had a magic genie or I held the magic lamp,
I have a feeling that my virtues would fall prey to the overt trap.

If I had the chance to make you mine,
Without the work of love and time
Your love for me would misaligned
...And I would have to write a poem, again, where all the last lines rhymed.

If things were to go as I wish,
I think I'd live a life like this
Where skies are blue...
...and tears are, too
...And life had repercussions from all the things I do

Here, I sit and wait and wait...
Waiting for my greatest mistake...
For when I see a world of power and grandeur...
The life as I wish, would never be ensured.

Starting Line Mist

Tell me tomorrow's never coming
And I'll take you to the start
To the place where there are no questions
In the matter of the heart

Frozen here forever
Purtagory is my home
Heaven is a virtue
Where my feet will never roam

I can feel the cold deep inside my skin
Part of the places I have never been
And so it goes back to the heart
Where the beginning ends... back to the start

I thought my life was so surreal
A journey set through past ordeals
The purpose shown to be revealed...

Tomorrow has seen better days
The sunset came a million ways
But the sun will rise beyond my days
In so many more than a million ways
See past the light and through the haze...
Betray the heart and you shall always pay

Only Dreaming...

Now these people go and say that I don't understand
But I can do what I want and I want what I can
Cause I'm holding.... I know that I'm holding
I know I'm not the man that you need me to be
But I can give you my heart 'cause my heart's on my sleeve
And I'm holding... I know that I'm holding... Always be holding

The past is the part that I'll never let go
I will hold you even closer 'til you feel my flow
We're always afraid that the future's delayed
It'll start when it's ready, there's no use to hold

I'll never let you tell me that... I'll never let you tell me that...
I'll never let you tell me that... Never let you tell me that...

Don't be scared, oh, don't be afraid
This world can be a barren place
Without me seeing your showing face

My arms are tired, my legs are weak
For holding on is leading bleak
I'll tell you now, I'll tell you later
I've been holding on for fear... the fear of falling

I've the seen the light the sun can shine
When you awake to the horizon line
It showed me sights that I could not see
Without the aid of those shattered dreams

People that told me that dreams were shot
Would never be worth another thought
I know better 'cause I was taught
It'll never be over if you play the clock

I know... I'm here
I'm trying... to be
The one... in the light
Who can save the soul of my shattered dreams

And I know... I'll be here
'Til the night... of the year
Always cold... from the heat
In control of the only heart on the only night of the year

...On the only night of the year

And I know... I will say
The perfect thing.. at the perfect sight.. of your holding might
On the only night.. in the only dream...
That became the light of my life...
You became the light of my life...
