Rules and visions

Life counts
the rules;
the sunset, their exceptions.
Rain drinks up
the centuries;
spring, our dreams.
The eagle sees
the sunrays
and youth, the visions.

A Dreamers Life

There is a kid he is all alone,
nobody befriends him he is cold to the bone,
he sits in the rain but nobody will come,
he waits all day in till his fingers are numb.

what the others don’t realize is that,
he is a dreamer, a believer not just a brat,
kind gentle nice in every way,
but the other kids a mean and call him gay.

His parents believe he is injury prone,
but really its bully’s that make him groan,
all he wants is a companion to care,
someone fun that doesn’t despair.

Then comes along a nice young girl,
she be friends him here name is sharni-pearl,
they play with glee and dream away,
together with her he is not a bully’s prey.

His grades improve he has so much more fun,
and when he grew up she was his high school hun,
now they live together married and happy,
they raised a son a dreamer, a happy chappy.

The tattoed brain

The tattoed brain
is a ticklish thing
kept playing
is absolutely convinced of what is doing.
Infuriated
afflicted with modern ambition
the introspective consciusness
animates inspires
psychedelia.

Especially prepared for the purpose
descent into madness
the blurry line
the tragic line
secretly experiences a good deal of emotions.

Themes, concepts and problems
the individual’s place in society
the meaning of existance
power, war, education
is all in good cause
to do your bit
put your soul in all that is noble to you.

At rare moments
you can see what great possibilities in the oddly appealing and dish out gold among the ashes.

What I Have Learnt

I have learn to fly like antelope
For therein dwell strength
When danger like rolling billow
Burst the peace in my heart
And heavenly fear bids my violent arm stop

I have learn to speak like parrot
In a graveyard world
Where truth is silent like sepulchre
And many ears crave sweet sounding lies
But few long for truth

I have learn to laugh like a jackal
For it kills sorrow stressful sadness
Laughter lengthens life
Raining joy on sick hearts
Telling others of God’s care in my life

I have learnt to love
Loving millions a million times like
Christ Loving those who for no course me hate
My loving master has thus loved I will love till he in me is loved

Tried and Tried

I’v tried and tried
but cant comply
I ask the world
why oh why
but I never get
a damn reply
the world is cruel
I’m a fucking tool
it treats me like
a god damn mule
for which I work
and get no pay
not even time
to go out and play
like a slave
every day
but with you here
I have no fear
if I lost
you my dear
I’d shed more
than just one tear
when I talk to you
the world seems clear
I met you through
a fellow peer
but I’d seen you round
and my heart got wound
it skipped a beat
when your voice made a sound
now I have wrote this
I didnt try to coat this
you know how I feel
and my feelings are real
I’m hooked on a line
attached to your reel
I tried to get free
but then I realized
how great I’d feel
if you were mine
to the end of time
lets start a new trend
and let me be more
than just your friend
without it coming
to an end

Frailty

The heart in my chest is bleeding,
But blood never shows a stain.
If only behind this mask of tranquility
You could see a soul that is grieving…
My heart has the same ability
To suffer - to drown in pain.
If you knew how much one word could mean…
If you only saw me falling
Apart right in front of your eyes…
But until the last drop of my blood is shed,
My true love’s solemnly sworn not to die.
I guess, I’m like a castle, ruined on the battle’s last day,
Or novel with half pages missing…
The other half pages is frayed.

Seeds of Love

Plant your love in sunshine,
not shadows from the past.
Grow in soil that’s free of fear.
Watch roots grow strong and fast.
~
Feed it much attention.
Water it with praise.
Share it with each other,
so it spreads more every day.
~
When the weather’s stormy
and edges start to bend,
wrap in warm embraces
’til it finds its strength again.
~
Your love will sprout its seedlings.
You’ll sow them as above.
They’re likely to take over,
your garden full of love.
~
If your love grows greater,
than your heart can comprehend,
Place some in a basket
and take it to a friend.
~
Plant the seeds together
and nurture them with care.
Knowing as life passes,
your love grows everywhere.

Bring Back The Past

The badlands beckon me
From times past
To trek so ominously
Creatures stirring the sacred pot
Traversing in a quagmire of iniquity
Under the inflammed sun so hot
Bad habits increase in the fold
Natures voice calls us to join
What the imperial site beholds
Asphalt of broken bottles
And females dancing away
Feeling like exotic models
Times past please stay
Enjoying the breeze of cuddles
