How have we come to be here now
you and i
still clinging to the burst of feeling that happened to us
long ago,
now gone,
but the cold fear terror hideous
of i do not know what
maniacally creeping
makes us desperately hold hands
like a couple in love

No Goodbyes

I grieve for the loss of what I thought would be
For all the times I had hoped it could be
When my heart cried for more than your company
For the times that I thought we really could be

Although years have passed and we’ve grown apart
Your legacy lives in your boys and my heart
I honor your choices you made at the start
For your two little boys to get a head-start

Now I grieve for our boys just eleven and ten
For their pain and frustration, for this happening
I love these boys and I can’t do a thing
For this time in their lives when they don’t want to sing

I crumble when I look in their eyes
When I hold them tight and I hear their cries
They have no understanding, there were no goodbyes
Such a tragic time when a father dies

Sound is at its best when in the form of music
Beats, rifts, melodies and tunes
I love all music in what ever form
Rhythms of music stir my moods
It leave’s me elevated when I’ve been listening to tunes.

Don’t get me wrong I have a day job
No music in my day job though
It makes me sad
A job in music would make me glad.

I must tell you though
There is a party going on in my head
It’s what I see when the lights gone dead
It’s not darkness but colours instead
Combined with music is an excellent thread
I express it when I’m in bed
Probably something I will do till I’m dead
Twisting, shaking moving to the beat
Sleep and slumber music is the engine
It must be time to do this on my feet
Bring on the crowd it will be sweet
The colours are electric especially with beats
An audience I will greet, singing and dancing
I’m a one man show, even with my devils glow
Some how I need to graduate this show
Tell them I love them I hope she knows.

In this widely journey of mine,
i met a persons
whose so lovely and dear..
they put me high when i am down
they make me laughed
when i am sad
they gave all i want
if in case that will make me happy
they were proud in every piece of thing i achieved
they are there to be my guide
and to support…
i know how much they love me
i know they will always care..
and i know deep in my heart
that i could depend on their love
and support no matter what….
