Perfect Strangers...

it's amazing how a person can spill the deepest feelings...the innermost thoughts...the darkest secrets with someone...how one can share the "true self" with another person...i used to wonder...can anyone really reveal one's self completely to any person?...bare one's soul?...and by doing so set one's self free...i realized one big thing...you can be yourself...however weird it may be...in front of a stranger...and pour out everything you always wanted to scream out but never had the guts nor the chance to...and it's so wonderful to see the reflection of yourself in someone else's eyes...in the eyes of this perfect stranger...

lovers

An afternoon of sad affairs
Shared in the hope of mending broken dreams
The constant struggle after simple pleasures
Finds us perfect strangers you and I

You know I hate to see you cry
And through the tears that fall like winter rain
You say you're tired of merely just surviving
We've so much in common that we're

Chorus
Perfect strangers singing perfectly in tune
From separate corners of the room
Held together by our hunger to get by
Perfect strangers you and I

Let's make a toast to no regrets
Wet down the painful sting of sweet love lost
Let evening find us whispering in our whiskey
Come and sit beside me for a while

You know I love to see you smile
And if perhaps you're only passing through
At least we tried to reach an understanding
And for just one moment we were

Perfect strangers singing perfectly in tune
From separate corners of the room
Held together by our hunger to get by
Perfect strangers you and I

Illusion...

we are submerged in this world with a REASON...in this place which allows FREEDOM of expression...we are kindred SOULS...yet, your answers are not for me to find...as you seek your own awareness, set your THOUGHTS free...unlock the VIVID sparkles of creativity...speak to me with words, about EMOTION in all its forms...let your soul break its silence...SOAR with me awhile in lucid BLISS...that I may learn and be inspired...let me have a glimpse to your MIND...don't be scared that you'll be judged...it's just one side of your DIMENSION...FEAR is only in our minds...let it not control your explicit imagination and put a LIMIT to your psyche...let your literally stream FLOW into infinity...it shall live long after it has been READ...as I was and am still...HERE...

illusion

Searching for a destiny that's mine 
There's another place another time.
Touching many hearts along the way
Hoping that I'll never have to say
It's just an illusion - illusion - illusion.
Follow your emotions anywhere
Is it really magic in the air?
Never let your feelings get you down
Open up your eyes and look around
It's just an illusion - illusion - illusion.

Could it be that it's just an illusion 
Putting me back in all this confusion?
Could it be that it's just an illusion now?
Could it be that it's just an illusion 
Putting me back in all this confusion?
Could it be that it's just an illusion now?

Could it be a picture in my mind? 
Never sure exactly what I'll find
Only in my dreams I turn you on
Here for just a moment then you're gone.
It's just an illusion - illusion - illusion.

Could it be that it's just an illusion 
Putting me back in all this confusion?
Could it be that it's just an illusion now?
Could it be that it's just an illusion 
Putting me back in all this confusion?
Could it be that it's just an illusion now?

Rescue Me...

i'm sitting here alone, staring into the darkness...i can hear the heartbeat hammering against my chest...i can feel the blood racing through my veins...they are as tangible as my pain...maybe if i cry myself long enough to sleep, i will get tired and blackout into a dreamless stupor...no more dreams...no more enticing dreams which turn into horrible nightmare...the most cruel nightmare which is "reality"...i tried to run away but it sought me out...it chased away all my wondrous fantasies...

i'm sitting here alone and helpless...crying out for you...

my world keeps on spinning...come and help me...
i'm drowning in my tears...save me...
i'm trapped in my pain...rescue me...

drowning woman

Rescue me from the mire
Whisper words of desire
Rescue me - darling rescue me
With your arms open wide
Want you here by my side
Come to me - darling rescue me
When this world's closing in
There's no need to pretend
Set me free - darling rescue me

I don't wanna let you go
So I'm standing in your way
I never needed anyone 
Like I'm needing you today

Do I have to say the words?
Do I have to tell the truth?
Do I have to shout it out?
Do I have to say a prayer?
Must I prove to you 
How good we are together?
Do I have to say the words?

Rescue me from despair
Tell me you will be there
Help me please - darling rescue me

Every dream that we share
Every cross that we bear
Can't you see - darling rescue me

Impassioned...

tempest

all emotions running loose and WILD
like a TEMPEST on a free-spirited ride
a raging wildfire on a rampage SPREE
a FEVERED soul in a passionate frenzy
seeking respite from the lull of tranquility
from the chill of PASSIVE serenity
ECHOES of muted screams resonated
drowning the SILENCE inside my head

In Pain...

pain
agonizing streaks of unbearable CRIMSON hell
ripping across the living canvas splashed with PAIN
nerve-wracking caresses in relentless rhythm
TORMENTING and dominating the helpless brain
lying motionless in a bed of nails
past the threshold of mute INDIFFERENCE
the disconsolate CRIES seeking to alleviate
the pangs of TORTURE screaming to be heard
running wild in a tireless game of hide and seek
elusive SLEEP would be a welcome treat
slipping in and out of CONSCIOUSNESS
FLIRTING outrageously with the notion of death

C'mon Baby Light My Fire...

lovers
I feel your breath quicken, pulse starts to race,
feel your body shaking, as I touch your face.
Work my way slowly down the back of your neck,
two bodies melting, emotional train wreck.

Begging for pleasure, I take my time,
pulling you closer, body next to mine.
Biting so gently, your p*nis starts to stiffen,
sweat on your skin, in the moonlight glistens.

As I lick my way down your quivering belly,
body tingles all over, legs turn to jelly.
Now I kiss lower, to your hard secret place,
sucking your juices, enjoying the taste

Now we're both aching, all senses alive,
I take you inside me, our bodies start to writhe.
I feel your intenseness, throbbing inside.
all thoughts are stirring, nothing to hide,

Grinding with lust, wanting it more,
you explode inside me, we've opened the door.
Unchained passion, pushing us closer,
shaking the walls, knocking things over.

Collapse in each other, embrace not broken,
both breathing heavily, not a word spoken.
The looks on our faces, ecstasy found,
hold on, sweet lover, I'm going back down.

Instead you turn me slowly, entering from behind,
feels so delicious, we both lose our minds.
Grind even harder, we've come to the end,
both smile sexily, Let's do it again.

My Light...

light of love
Darkness may spread its wings
And fear may creep within
I may shudder and tremble
As my courage wears thin

Terror may grip my heart
My dreams all taking flight
And all that may remain
Are nightmares through the night

I'll raise high the light
I'm holding in my hand
Let it shine along the path
Of my scared heart and mind

Love is the light
That radiates in my life
It tears through the dark
Like a razor sharp knife

Like I Knew I Would...

smile
I heard a song yesterday
And it reminded me of you
I’ve heard it play a hundred times before
But I thought of you and smiled
I wish that you were here, or I was there
I guess I miss you
Like I knew I would

And later I was reading back
To how things were
And I was laughing through my tears
At the thought of you
How I wished that you were here, or I was there
And I was missing you
Like I knew I would

And if I never see you again this side of forever
Can I tell you that I LOVE YOU
That I’ll never forget you,
Even though you’ll forget me
And that’s okay
For when I think of you I always smile
Like I knew I would

Unspoken...

wishing
you came to my life...
quietly...simply...tenderly...
and the world stood still...

i could not say a word,
nor a single gesture showed
the feelings kept in my heart...

so i loved you in silence...
worshipped you from a distance...
dreamt of you from afar...

i wanted to say "i love you"...
i wanted you to know i care...
but i was afraid,
afraid you'd only laugh at me...

in silence then will i just love you...
in silence will i care...
because in silence
i found the fulfillment of my dream...

Destiny...

lovers
whatever it was that brought us together
must have been something special...
...something specially wonderful...
...something wonderfully beautiful...
or it wouldn't have succeeded so well
in bringing us together...

whatever it was couldn't have been Chance
for something as beautiful as our love
could only have been planned by Fate, not by Man.
and i shall keep and treasure this something beautiful
for a LIFETIME...

Au Revoir...

young love
H ow will this way of life be the same as it was
A fter it has lost its reason for existence?
N ever in my wildest dreams have i imagined
Z est for life could begin and could easily wane.
E verything that happened is not without meaning:
L ife without our summer love is not worth living!

*rhyme was written in the early 80's

...that was a number of summers ago, when we first met...and i was so naive to think that love would never end and never hurt...that it would all be tenderness expressed by holding of hands and by the most gentle kisses...

...until that one fateful morning...i was sitting at the back pew when i saw you coming in at the side door...there was no mistaking that look of love in you eyes as you gazed at her...i thought i died!

...i left without saying a word...without saying goodbye...for i was not ready to let go then...but i have long forgiven...and i have forgotten all the pains...

...take care my friend...

...till we meet again...

REBIRTH...

rebirth
There was a time when darkness was a solace
And only the night can ensure the sweetest embrace
When the comfort of sleep was a welcome respite
From the memories lurking deep within my mind

There was a time life lost all its meaning
When my very existence was an excruciating pain
The unbearable days were slow and agonizing
No hope, no faith, no promises for better days remain

There was a time when giving up was the only answer
To forget and leave the all-consuming nightmare
When the lure of eternal quiet was the only solution
To a bleeding heart that lost all its will and reason

There was a time I died a humbling and poignant D-E-A-T-H
To find my way back to life in a rendezvous with B-I-R-T-H
