                      Long Lost Thoughts

Here I Sit Reading Words Written Many Years Ago
I Now Gaze Through Spectacles To Read My Writings Of Old

Miles Of Words , Piles Of Paper , Unread Files Of My Thoughts And Dreams
Broken Memories , I Long To Share , Longing To Be Read , Who Cares

I'm Just Another Writer , A Rhyme Without A Reason
Perhaps A Poet Painting A Portrait For You To Read

Writing Wayward Words , Still Lost Within My Song
Perhaps A Poet , Perhaps I Was Wrong

My Endless Curse , My Verse Rehearsed
Woe Is Me , My Words Unheard

Long Lost Thoughts , Just Stains Upon The Page
No One Wants To Read Me Or Sing Me On Stage

Long Lost Thoughts , Crying In Words
Long Lost Thoughts , Few Have Heard

Long Lost Thoughts , Memories Within My Head
Long Lost Thoughts , Dying To Be Read

My Long Lost Thoughts , Words Written Many Years Ago
Tonight I Can't Sleep , So Many Miles Of Words I Read
And In My Dreams , My Words,,,, You Read......

            Time

Precious And Priceless
A Never Ending Spell
Turning Tides
And Ringing Bells

Perhaps There's A Treasure
Within The Sands Of Time
And With Every Setting Sun
The Clock Seems To Rewind

Seconds Turn To Minutes
Minutes Turn To Hours
Time Belongs To No One
Yet This Time Is Ours

There's Never Enough Time
Yet It Never Ends
Time Is Priceless
I've Only A Minute To Spend

Time Is An Hour Glass
Time Is A Measure
We Watch Time Pass
As We Pursue Our Pleasures

I've Done My Time
Look What Times Done To Me
I'm Older And Wiser
Wouldn't You Agree

Time Is Slipping Away
No Need To Pretend
Old And Gray
My Time Is Nearing Its End

Time Is Precious
So Spend It Wisely
Thy Kingdom Come
Thy Will Done

You Never Know
When Your Time Will Come......

Out Of Time.....
Sept. 16 1990

You Could Have Been Mine

Roses Long Withered
Dust Covered Pain
Prey Upon My Heart
Crying In The Rain

Suffer Me Forever
Captured By A Lost Touch
Endless Endeavor
A Kiss , Your Trust

As The Rose Wilts And Dies
Your Thorn Pricks , I Bleed
As Our Love Dies
Crying In The Rain , I'm Deceived

Tears Of Days Long Gone
No Hand To Turn Back Time
Just Thoughts Of Years Gone Bye
You Could Have Been Mine.....
July 2 2016

     ...And You...

I Hear A Sweet Voice
Within The Shadows Of My Mind
My Search For Her Never Ending

Suddenly  I Realize
I'm Nothing Without Her
A Poem Without Rhyme
To Harmonize Would Be A Dream Come True

            ...And You...

Your Voice Singing Softly
Whispers To My Soul
You Place Your Lips So Gently Upon Mine
I Love The Way We Harmonize

Now Love Is Ours
                           I Realize
She Is My Song
                          We Harmonize

The Echoed Notes Of Our Love Song
As You Flow Through My Very Soul

               ...And You......
June 10 1992


       A Writers Pen

An Empty Piece Of Paper
And A Mind Full Of Dreams
Where Do All These Thoughts Come From
Tell Me , Where Have They Been

I've Written A Few Poems
No One Cares To Read
I Feel It Cutting My Pride
Want To Watch Me Bleed

A Pain I Feel Deep Inside
As I Share My Frustration
My Thoughts I No Longer Hide
Within My Imagination

             A Writers Pen
Spends To Much Time In His Hand
             A Writers Pen
Only The Page Understands

Do I Have To Beg You To Read
Tell Me , Who Am I
Open The Book
You'll Find Me Inside

My Paper And Pen
Poetry For You And Them
Read By No One
Poetry Condemned

I Can Write Anything
Can I Do Anything Right
I Guess I Could Eat My Words
Or Perhaps You Should Read Me My Rights

              A Writers Pen
Spends To Much Time In His Hand
              A Writers Pen
Only The Page Understands

Perhaps , I'm Just Crazy
You Don't Have To Read My Books
You're So Smart , You Amaze Me
To Good To Take A Look

I Live Within These Pages
Read Between The Lines
Some Say I've Gone Crazy
Writing All The Time
Endlessly Searching
For The Perfect Rhyme

      This Writers Pen
Spends To Much Time In My Hand
Sometimes I Wonder
If The Page Understands......
July 22 1990

      

   
       My White Room

The Walls Are Closing In
Bugs Are Crawling On Me
My Eyes No Longer See
Any Trace Of Reality

Here Inside My Sickened Mind
A Wall I Simply Cannot Climb
I Can't See , And I Can't Cross
This Imaginary Line

The Bugs Are Tormenting Me
I'm Itching All The Time
I Know They're A Part Of Me
Yet The Doctors Say
It's All In My Mind

I Cause Myself To Bleed
I'm Scratching To The Bone
Bugs Are Attacking Me
They Won't Leave Me Alone

Some Thoughts Within
Are Thoughts Without
My Mind Plays Tricks On Me
I Live In Fear And Doubt

Are The Doors Locked
I Must Check All The Time
I'm Just So Paranoid
Yet The Doctors Say
It's All In My Mind

Scratching Until I Bleed
Because The Bugs Keep Biting Me
They're Planting Their Seeds
To Give Me A Disease

I've Washed The Fingerprints
Off Of My Hands
I Wash Them Until I Bleed
Does No One Understand
What Cleanliness Means To Me

I'd Like A White Room
With White Linen Sheets
I Wish All These Spiders
Would Stop Threatening Me

And In My White Room
A White Sink And A White Shower
So I Could Stay Clean
For More Than An Hour

And Upon My White Door
At Least Twenty - Two Locks
Since It's Cleanliness I Adore
A Million Pairs Of Clean White Socks

I'm Now Locked Inside
My Little White Room
Safe From The Outside World
If The Doctors Let Me Out
It Would Be Too Soon

Now The Roaches Want To Kill Me
So I'll Take Another Shower
How Did They Get Into My White Room
I've Only Been Here An Hour

My Delusions Of  Spiders
Roaches And Bugs
Have Now Led Me To A
Nice White Room In The Asylum

Here They Feed Me Lots Of Drugs
And Lock The Door For Me At Night
I Still Find It Hard To Fall Asleep
Even In My World Of White.........

Good Night , Sleep Tight
Don't Let The Bed Bugs Bite
After All  ,  The World Is White......
June 23 2010


        Senseless

Mirrors Reflect
The Sounds You See
Fear Rejects
A Piece Of The Silence
A Part Of Me
That You Can't See

Feast Upon Color
Open The Door To The Rainbow
Freedom Is Blue
The Future Is Black
You No Longer Exist
Don't Look Back

Limit Without End
In Dreams You Ascend
No One To Guide You
Upon This Path
There's No Way Through
And No Known Map

Lost In End
All Is Pretend
After It's Over
All Is Pretense
Even If We Exist
It Doesn't Make Sense
1983

   All My Words In Torment Dwell

     Memories Of A Distant Time
Running My Fingers Through Her Mind
Writing All  My Worthless Rhymes
For A Woman I Used To Call Mine

She Introduced Me To The Feeling Of Rage
She Seduced Him While We Were Engaged
Now All My Words In Torment Dwell
To Love To Hate Her , It's Just As Well........

           Despised Is Our Love

I've Wandered Into Love Again
Tranquility At Long Last
For Her Love I Have Fought
I May Have Thought To Fast

Patience And Kindness
For What Purpose
Would She Still Be Mine
She's Making Me Nervous

I've Tried And I've Cried
Again And Again
Love Is Still The Game
And Truth Is Just The Same
Her Love To Be Forgotten
Along With Her Name

(chorus)No!  Despised Is Our Love
          I've Had More Than Enough
           Yeah , You Needed Love
           Love From Somebody Else

The Power Of Deception
Was Once Passed In My Direction
My Emotions Untied
A Love I've Been Denied
Now The Endless Reflections
Of Ones Battered Affections

To Be Left At The Surface
When Your Feelings Are Deep
I'm Left Standing On My Own
When Loves Not For Keeps
When Love's Not For Me

(chorus)No!  Despised Is Our Love
          I've Had More Than Enough
            Yeah , You Needed Love
            Love From Somebody Else....
                         Not Me!!!!
1982....All My Words is the Intro To Despised....


                Fire

The Fire Fascinates Me
Fire My Friend
The Fire Calls To Me
My Soul To Send

The Fire Beckons Me
Its Demon Eyes , Its Licking Flames
I Believe I Hear Satan
Calling My Name

Tricked By The Lies Of Lucifer
And The Fires Warm , Inviting Embrace
I'm Mesmerized By The Flickering Flames
And A Stone That Bears My Wicked Name

The Flames Assault My Vision
My Eyes Are On Fire
My Last Breath Is Leaving My Tormented Body
As The Flames Are Climbing Higher

I Feel The Leaping Flames
Eating Away At My Very Soul
My Blood Is Boiling
My Memories A Stain
It's Never Ending
I Have An Eternity To Endure This Pain.....
Jan. 25 2011

    Hell

Wicked Me
Wicked You
Walk With Me
In The Devils Shoes

Feel The Heat
Hold My Hand
Burn With Me
In The Promised Land

Feel The Stain Of My Sin
As My Darkness Overflows
A Knife From My Past
Forever Stabbing My Soul

Never Ending
My Sorrow And Pain
Now I Burn Forever
For I've Lived In Vain

Stever The Deceiver
Stever The Liar
Stever The Receiver
Of Hells Tormenting Fire......
June  22 2010

              Hell

Wicked Me , Wicked You
Walk With Me In The Devils Shoes
Feel The Heat , Hold My Hand
Burn With Me In The Promised Land

Hell Yeah! , Hell No!
Come With Me
You Know You Want To Go

We Live In Sin
We Invite The Darkness In
Now The Never Ending Sorrow And Pain
We Burn Forever
For We've Lived In Vain
No More Life , No Less Insane

It's Only An Eternity
We Now Live Under Satan's Reign
Deceivers And Liars
Now The Receivers
Of Hell's Tormenting Fire.....

      Double

Double Is Twice
Sometimes It's Nice
If You Double My Pay
Don't Double The Price

If You Double The Truth
Double Your Proof
Don't Double My Age
Double My Youth

Double The Volume
Raise The Level
Double The Noise
Double My Trouble

Repeat , Repeat
Double So Complete
Double Squared
Is Double Twice
Double Shared
In A Roll Of The Dice

Double Is A Split Decision
In The Boxing Ring
Double Is A Duet
Twins Begin To Sing

Double Is A Rhyme
Double Is My Insistence
I Wish I Could Double The Time
Of Our Own Existence...

End , End..
August 8 1987

            Fire

            Fire
Would You Like To Learn
            Fire
Are You Ready To Burn
             Fire
There Is No Return
             Fire
The Flames Curve And Twist
             Fire 
The Heat Of Our Kiss
             Fire
Come Dance With Me
             Fire
Will Set Us Free
             Fire
Burns Eternally
             Fire
At My Fingertips
             Fire
Take Me , I Insist....
             I'm Fired....
Sept. 16 2002

So Suddenly Gone

Crystal Rain Drops
Fall Upon My Cheek
The Tears Now Stop
Love Wasn't For Keeps

My Punishment Pain
Love Has Departed
So Suddenly Gone
I Lie Broken Hearted

I No Longer Shed Tears
I No Longer Feel Pain
I Remember Her Smile
My Memories Stain

So Suddenly Gone
Weeping So Long Ago
Yesterdays Pain
No Longer Grows

So Suddenly Gone
Love Has Departed
So Suddenly Gone
I'm No Longer
Broken Hearted ......
