King Killah

The purple robed warrior
King Killah was his name
All the mice in the land
Shall fear his reign

I called upon King Killah
When there was a mouse
Who thought I wouldn't mind
If he lived in my house

In a purple robe
With a yellow broom
He smacked that rodent
Right out of the room

One time it ran scared
The next it fell dead
Either dang way
It's not in my bed

Kurt

There once lived a man named Kurt Cobain
He never knew anything else but pain
A bullet in his head
And now he's dead
But we're still not sure who is to blame

Your Silent Love

When I look at your eyes
When they're looking at me
It's a look of love
The look that I see

I know that you love me
Just as I love you
Your eyes tell me everything
If your words never do

Your love may be silent
While mine screams loud
Your love feels shy
While mine stands proud

But it's all alright
Your love and mine
They're so very different
And that's just fine

I LOVE

I LOVE

It's What I do

I LOVE

Strong

I LOVE

Whole

I LOVE

Deep

I LOVE

True

I LOVE

I'm in love with you

Cloudy Eyes

With cloudy eyes,

In tear drop skies...

I long for the one I love.

Love Is A Gamble

I want to write a poem
To express the pain I feel
But I just can't seem to find the words
To help my heart to heal

I feel so broken down inside
I feel so tired out
And so completely exhausted
From all your fears and doubts

You will not say forever
For forever is too long
You cannot say I love you
For you love seems wrong

You don't know what you want
You're afraid and insecure
You just don't want to think
So you're never ever sure

Love might be a scary word
But my heart feels no fear
Because my heart feels only peace
Whenever you are near

I've tried to make you see the light
I've tried to make you see what's right

But since you'd rather leave than stay
It's time that I too walked away

So I am moving on
I'm not waiting anymore
I'm putting you behind me
It's time I closed the door

I thought I couldn't do it
I couldn't live without you
But now I see the light
Now I see the truth
And I realize now
I'm better without you

The relationship is over
I loved and I lost
I gave my heart completely
I wonder at what cost

Let's think for a moment
And consider the price
For Love is a gamble
A roll of the dice

Sometimes you win big
Sometimes you lose bad
It can bring joy and bliss
Then leave you lonely and sad

I hope one day
You'll open your heart
Allow Love in your life
And make a fresh start

A life without Love
May be a life without pain
But a life with no hurt
Is a life without gain

So while Love is a gamble
A roll of the dice
It's the only real choice
For a truly lived life

So I loved and I lost
But really I won
My soul has been cleansed
And now I'm done

With you that is.

Cold Bones

I haven't seen you, in over a year.

Still every so often, I shed a tear.

Or two or three, but usually more,

Your leaving this world, hurts to the core.

Sometimes I'm mad, so mad at you,

For dying, for leaving, but what could you do?

I know it's not your fault, but still I get mad,

Because he needs you, he needs his Dad.

You never visit me, and I dream every night.

I await your presence, I await your light.

The winter was cold, I felt bad for your bones,

Locked up in that box, in the ground so cold.

I want you to know, I have forgiven you,

I'm not sure if I said, if I ever told you

But I think that you knew, and I hope that you, have forgiven me too.

I know we had problems, I know we had fights,

and now all I have are sleepless nights.

Please visit me, please while I sleep

And until forever, your memory I'll keep
