INTOXICATION      


My eyes can romance you sweetly
My heart pulsates with intense bliss
My lips can caress you dearly
My whispery moans, spells out a wish
My soft voice, can relax your mind
My skin crawls with heavenly fire
My touch can entice a different sign
My body reacting comes from desire
My creative mind excites me daily
My intense feeling can make you wild
My love will grasp you heavenly
My passion is intoxicating


                LET MY                   

Let my hands wrap around you
Nice and slow
Caressing every part of your body,
Until they unite an embrace
Where you will feel safe and warm

Let my lips kiss you
Inch by inch,
Feeling every part of, your skin
Where every kiss sends a message
Sweet words of romance, bliss and lust

Let my eyes stare
Up and down,
To see such beauty in front of me,
Is dreaming dreams, into reality
Where my eyes, do not deceive me

Let my love
Capture your heart




TONIGHT

I want to be the one
You love
All night through,
Let me hold you tight
When the mood is right,
Feel your touch
When the wind blows love,
Kiss your sweet lips
When the nights asleep,
Tonight
I want to be the one
You love
All night through,
Let me caress your body
Nice and gently,
Ignite the flames
Deep inside our veins,
Smell your ecstasy,
Love you endlessly,
Tonight
I want to be the one
You love





WHEN I KISS YOUR LIPS


When I kiss your lips
I fall into a deep daze
And I want to shout, so loud
“I love you in so many ways”

When I kiss your lips
I’m in some kind of fantasy
And I want to do so many things
Show you how special you are to me

When I kiss your lips
I feel your every move, so warm
And my mind wants to go crazy,
Can’t believe I have you in my arms

When I kiss your lips
I’m on top of the world
I see us together full of bliss,
All this and more
When I kiss your lips



ENCOURAGEMENT


May the path you follow,
Surround you with strength
Good health and kind love,
Today and all of your tomorrows,
May the spirit that guides you,
Protect you day and night,
In all you set out to do.
May the path you seek
Bring your dreams into reality.





I AM HERE

I am here, for you, for always
You are, in my eyes and in my heart
My sister, my friend and my guardian
I am here for the good times
That brings us love, joy and laughter
I am here for the bad times
That brings us tears, pain and despair
I am here, for you
To take on the challenges life brings
To be there when I‘m needed the most
I am here, for you
Because I simply love you




MUST BE STRONG

I must always be strong
Day after day
No matter how impossible
I must hold on,
I must believe
In myself, in my dreams,
I must have faith and hope
And believe in the hands of the lord
I know, I will have to
Sacrifice a lot
To gain later in life
What I’ve lost,
I must always
Be strong, hold on
Believe in myself, my dreams
Have faith and hope,
I must always
Be strong




YOU ARE SPECIAL
One of a kind,
You have done things
That makes my heart sing,
You have picked my up
When I needed a lift,
Stood by my side
Through wrong and right,
You have made me smile
When I was down,
Reached out
When I needed someone,
You have opened up your heart,
To feel my pain
Hear my sorrows,
Openly and whole heartedly
You have always shown your love
It’s just the way you are,
Special
One of a kind




DREAMS

Dreams are images
Of what we want in life,
In my thinking eyes
I shall grasp and hold,
In my believing heart
I shall feel and do,
That my dreams
Are slowly becoming true


Empty Hall

Come enter my empty hall,
With only pictures hanging on the wall,
You will see sweet smiling faces
Of all kinds, in different places,
Couples holding hands in the park
Immature love fighting in the dark,
A beautiful smile filled with pain,
Lazy tears escaping the rain,
Eyes filled with deep thoughts
For a word never heard is completely lost,
Parents giving all they can
Parents not wishing to understand
Adolescents losing the meaning of life
Adolescents’ fighting for what is right
Come, look around,
Every picture has something to say,
To share, To Feel, To Hold, To Escape,
Just open up, your eyes


IT KNOWS

It is awake, when I am asleep
It realizes when I am dreaming
It sees when I am blind
It knows, what’s on my mind,
It beats when I no longer
It knows, I need a friend, a lover
It, cries with my happiness,
It, knows it’s really meaningless
It, is inside where it hides,
It, wants to feel what’s real
It, is my heart,
It knows.


MY


My thoughts can never be about
My mind could never be understood
My heart will always be in doubt
My eyes can not see good
My sentiments will not face love
My soul can not feel pain
My spirit will not fall apart
My love will never be in vain



NIGHT

In the night of darkness,
I see nothing.
In the night of light,
I see everything.
In the night of stars,
I see beauty.
In the night of fog,
I see ghastly.
In the night of nights,
I see blur.
In the night of blur,
I see her.




SOMETIMES

Sometimes, I really feel
There is somebody, by my side,
Although, I can’t see the person,
I feel some presence within,
It comforts me,
When I am scared,
Lost and in fear,
When I am in pain,
Crying and full of sadness,
When I am in doubt,
Despair and not believing,
When I am in love,
Happy,
And full of faith,
You are my Guardian Angel,
Thank you
For the many days and nights
I needed you


UNBORN LOVE
My heart seems to have escaped me
Because I can not feel it beating,
I’m walking on air,
Because I can not feel the ground beneath me.
My mind does not know what to think of,
Because it is spinning with too many
BEAUTIFUL THOUGHTS
My eyes desperately want to cry,
Cry for joy,
Cry for the new meaning in my life.
Your mother yelled it out so loud,
I nearly fainted to the ground,
The echo still rings in my mind,
“You are going to be a Father”
“You are going to be a Father”
Unborn love
I love you with all my heart
And I promise
I will give a new meaning to the word
“FATHER”



VERACIOUS HEART

A veracious heart encounters no mortal
Whose sentiments are as equal
No mortal has such a veracious heart,
Though for your eyes,
Will always convey pictures,
Pictures transform to thoughts, then to lust,
So no mortal heart is freely purified,
If only a heart can have the sagacity,
Sagacity to omit unwanted love,
From a philander and all others



LOVE
Love is a fresh breath of air
You close your eyes
And you feel every moment,
Your heart stops for a second
And when you let it out
It beats quieter than before,

Love is loving more and more
Than yesterday or the day before,

Love is the giving of you
Completely and most of all freely,

Without love in our hearts we are nobody,
And with love we are somebody,
With love, one can see all surroundings,
Without love we are blinded all around,

Love is the best gift of all
It can put a smile in your face,
A smile in your heart and to others,
Love is unconditional above all,

Love travels all year round,
It goes where you go,
Love is accepting life’s ups and down




NEAR YOU

When I am near you
I still get butterflies,
Sometimes I even stutter when I speak
Or daze off to another world,
That’s how I feel, when you are near.
Love is really funny
The kid in me comes out,
And all I really want to do
Is shout “I Love You, I Love You”
Blow kisses across the room,
Send kisses through the phone,
Write love letters,
Embrace you, over and over,
When I am near you,
I really do get butterflies,
Sometimes my eyes can’t believe,
What is really in front of me?
That’s how I feel when you are near,
And all I really want to do,
Is show the world
I just wanna be with you.




ONLY YOU

Only you
Can make my life complete
Because you make me believe
No matter how impossible it may be

Only you
Can make my heart fly
Far beyond the sky

Only you
Can make me realize
Love is loving you for life

Only you




RAIN AND SUNSHINE
Is what I can give you
Rain
To make our love grow
Sunshine
To make our love feel
Rain
To make our love know
Sunshine
To make our love real
Rain
To make our love live
Sunshine
To make our love happy
Rain
To make our love give
Sunshine
To make our love see
Rain
To make our love strong
Sunshine
To make our love forever
Rain
To make our love blossom
Sunshine
To make our love together
Rain, to make our love sunny
Sunshine, to make our love rainy
Rain and sunshine
Is what I can give you



SLEEPING

Sleeping next to an angel at night
Whose love is unconditional feels so right
Your rosy thin lips, slightly parted
Breathes love, to my passionate heart
The way you toss and turn in the sheets
Embraces me, a rhythm in place
Never losing a single beat
Oh! How I dare wake you with a kiss
So I can feel your rosy thin lips
Which ignites all kinds of bliss
Your fragile bare soul next to mine
Caresses me, teasingly, a sentiment so divine
I wonder if you could hear my whispers
In the night, “I love you, good night”.





THERE WILL BE TIMES
There will be times
When things won’t go our way
Just keep in mind
Love will never fade away,
It’s in our hearts
Beating as one, forever,
For as long as we
Understand each other
There could be
No wrong to each other,
Love will guide us
The best way possible
To omit fear and pain,
Love will protect us,
Make our love stronger
Than the day before
Yes, there will be times
When things won’t go our way
Just keep in mind
Love will never fade




UNKNOWN DESIRE

What is it, What I feel
Are the sentiments for they love
I shall know if it’s real
Though do not dissent with my heart
I’ve never felt such unknown desire
Besides, the love for thy family
Though my emotions for thou is higher
In your heart I need to be
Intense passion pulsates my heart
For thy touch, for thy love
For thy kiss, for thy heart
I seek so much
Never experienced such feelings before
I’ve never felt such unknown desire





WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN

When a man loves a woman
He completely understands, realizes
The reason as to why love lies

When a man loves a woman
He feels nothing but happiness
Everything else has little importance

When a man loves a woman
He feels safe, shows he cares
By a warm embrace a smile on his face

When a man loves a woman
He shows more ways than one
To keep his love always

When a man loves a woman
He’ll respect and cherish her
That truly is a man

A man who loves a woman




WHEN I THINK OF YOU

Today, I thought about you all day,

In every way

I realize so many wonderful things

That happens to me

When I think of you.

When I think of you

My heart laughs with happiness

A benevolent smile that is endless

When I think of you

I can feel the caress of your lips

Your warm embrace that I already miss

When I think of you

I’m overwhelmed by your love

The air I breathe, is not even enough

Today, I thought about you, all day in every way

Just thinking

How beautiful and loving you are to me

Of how much I appreciated all you do

All this, when I just think about you





FATHER

I had no one to turn to
No one knew how I really felt
Never had the chance to do
What a father and child would do
Always with the thought
You holding me
Me holding you
Laughing and playing
What a father and child would do
Why did you leave me so soon,
Father,
Why did the lord take you away,
Father,
When I lay to sleep at night,
I pray to the Lord,
You are watching and taking care of me,
Just the way, you would have done
One day, I will be with you
Way above the skies
When the Lord says it’s time
Why did you leave me so soon
Why did the Lord take you away
Father





IN MY LIFE

Ever since your last goodbye,
My eyes will not stop from crying,
Tears coming down, sad to hit the ground,
So many, I see you in them, crying also,

The time I have spend being with out you,
Made me realize so many things in my life,

I need you back, in my life,
And I will fight for the love I lost,
Anything and everything I will do for you,
I will not rest, until I have your love in my heart,

You will always come first, in my life,
I promise to listen more to your needs & wants,
Through right or wrong, I will be there,
Infinite love, is always forever in my life,

You are my shadow in the light,
And I need you back in my life,
No other love can mend my heart,
Like you can with just your smile,

No remedy in this world can cure my crying,
I am only half without you, in my life,
I am more of a man than before,
I simply need you back in my life.




MOMMY, THANK YOU

Never had the time to realize
All the things you’ve done in my life
You showed me so much
What’s good and what’s bad
Only wanting my love
An understanding of your heart
Mommy, thank you
For everything you’ve done
Thank you, mommy
We always show one another
How much we mean to each other
On a special occasion
Today, I’m here to say
That everyday that passes by
I show you my love
In a special way
It’s in my eyes, in my face, in my embrace
Mommy, thank you
You have opened up my eyes
To see what’s out there
There is beauty, laughter, joy,
Love, pain, tears, despair and sadness
Mommy, thank you
For everything you’ve done
Thank you, mommy




NEVER WILL I BE MYSELF AGAIN

Every time I close my eyes, I see you
And al the wonderful things we used to do
So many beautiful memories in my heart
But so many strong tears crying in the dark

Never will I be myself again
The only love I had, has gone away
With out you, my life has been insane
I need your love, to come back my way

I see your face in everybody I see
But as soon as they are next to me
I feel cold; my body starts to shake
An uncontrollable feeling that I just can’t take

I wanna runaway as far as I can
Knowing its not going to solve anything
Pain will always follow me around
You are and will still be, my everything

Never will I be myself again
The only love I had has gone away
With out you my life has been insane
I need your love to come back my way





ELDERLY

I remember well, how I used to run,
Had lots of laughter and fun,
Now, I can hardly go for a walk,
People can’t even decipher my talk,
The young are alive and more wanted,
The old are rejected and neglected,
Though I remember my fond days,
When I took care of my elderly,
It always left me with a good feeling,
Now, it’s a job with no true feeling,
So what, I can’t carry 15 pounds,
My strength just went away,
I became an elderly,
So what, I can’t drive like I used to.
I’m not as aware like before,
I take longer to get ready,
My health is never steady,
Sometimes, I even forget, who I am,
Then I remember and understand,
I am an elderly you will fast become.







FATHER

I couldn’t understand
Why you deserted us,
I couldn’t comprehend
I was too young,
I realized your mistakes,
Is what caused this family,
A lot of heartaches
Not just I, alone
But to all in the family
Still, my love for you is strong
Father
I am so mad,
In everything you have done,
Yet, I still fell sad,
You are my father; I am your son,
Although, you were never fair,
My love for you will always be there




HEAVEN

Heaven must have been lonely
To call for your presence
They took someone dearly
To make heaven a better place

Know I am left with memories
Memories that live on forever
You are still my father
And we will always be, together

When I look up in the sky
I know you are the brightest star
Because it is, what you are
And will always be
My father, forever in my heart






IF YOU ONLY, THEN YOU WOULD

If you only felt
All my thoughts
Then you would feel
Confused and lost
If you only knew
My love is in despair
Then you would know
To always be there
If you only prayed
Like I do for you
Then you would pray
Let love for once be true
If you only wrote
Why I’m so lost
Then you would write
I share your thoughts
If you only, then you would





RAIN

Rain drops fall from up above
Pain you feel from a broken heart
Tears come down from lost love
Fear is fragile it falls apart
Everyday is a new beginning
Every night ends a day
An empty heart has no meaning
True love never fades away
A mind spinning is full of thoughts
Feeling despair can get you lost
Hurt as pain are in relation
Love as the moon has many variations





SHADOW

My soul of shadow
Lays in the night
I see it leaving
With out me moving
Love lost in darkness
In presence of light
Is to endure
My eyes feel, my heart cries
My shadow escapes me





SILENT THOUGHTS

Silent thoughts are often not said
Usually lost into the darkness
I write to fight the pain
That dwells deep inside my vein
I sing the sadness in my heart
Lost, confused and falling apart
Do you hear my conscience calling
So loud you can’t hear my yelling?
Silent thoughts




SOMETIMES
Sometimes
My beat is fast
Sometimes
My beat is slower
Sometimes
My nights don’t last
Sometimes
My days seem longer
Sometimes
My mind goes apart
Sometimes
My mind is at ease
Sometimes
My heart is at war
Sometimes
My heart is at peace
Sometimes
My hate is everywhere
Sometimes
My hate is for someone
Sometimes
My love is not there
Sometimes
My love is for everyone



UNTIE

Untie the knot
In my throat
Cool my eyes
Which burns
Stop the pounding
In my head
Let me, be me
Once again,
Untie the knot
Cool my eyes
Stop the pound
I am know
Who I am not
Let me blink
And really see
That I came around
Untie




WHITE WALLS
Why don’t you talk to me?
Does someone else call?
Who needs you more than me?
White walls
You feel very cold
Are you sick, are you all right
Please give me some kind of sign
I need you
I have no one else to talk to
White walls
In what corner do you hide?
Come out, I’m enduring another fall
I have to ask you something
White walls
Please say anything
White walls
Why don’t you talk to me?
Does someone else call?
Who needs you more than me?
