MY DREAMS

DISTURB NOT MY DREAMS
DISTURB NOT THE FAIRIES OF MY SLEEP
SWIFT THEY MOVE
IN THE ENCHANTING MIST
OF MY SLEEP
DISTURB NOT 
LEST THE BLISS VANISH
AND CAUSE ME TO WEEP

WHEN IT SEEMS AND NOT

 Melting in the timeless sky 
horizon lonely and shy
Saw nothing
but the leaves fallen dry 

Walking in the scorching sun
passing through the desert land
Saw nothing 
but only the glistening sand

Wading through the water
sinking in the endless sea
Saw nothing
but the waves hovering in glee

Then hopes sprung
of what is seen
and what it seems
And the heart sung

An oasis in the desert
A ship in the sea
A star in the sky
As dreams can be


But certainty a darn thing
when doubts start creeping in
Was that all of dreams
lasting just long as it seems

The star a jinxed one
The oasis an illusion
The ship a shark
Still thoughts in confusion.....

THE FLIGHT

MY SOUL LIFTS HIGHER
ON A BED OF WATER
TO MY HEAVENLY MASTER
MY TEARS BRING ME CLOSER 


THEN THE FLAMES
AND THE FIRE
THE SMOKE
AND THE VAPOUR


THE HEART THAT BURNS EVER
LOVE AND LIFE BE NEVER
THOUGH I DREAM
IT TO BE EASIER


THE SKIN GROWS OLDER
MY SPIRIT LIGHTER
I LEAVE THE SELF BEHIND
N MY SOUL FLIES HIGHER


THEN IT AIN'T MATTER
JOY AND PAIN EITHER
CAUSE MY SOUL'S FLYING HIGHER
HIGHER AND HIGHER

THE LAMENT OF THE UGLY

YE WHO ART HANDSOME 
WHAT WOULD YE KNOW 
THE PAIN OF THE UNWANTED
THE GROAN OF THE UGLY


THERE WE STAND
AWAITING A SMILE
THERE WE FALL
IN THE SNARE OF YOUR GUILE


OUR SLIGHTEST ERROR
US IT BRINGS TERROR
AGREED, DESTINY IS GREATER 
FOR THE FAIRER


REALISE ,THE REJECTION
OF OUR COURTESY
YOUR REPROACH
IT HURTS TERRIBLY


THE FAILURES THEN
FURTHER SEEMS TO LULL
THE FAILURES, THE ONE
THAT US ALWAYS BEGUILE


THEN THE MOANING 
IN THE DARKNESS
THEN THE CRYING 
THE TEARS OF THE HELPLESS


THERE WE GO 
THERE SINKING
THE RAYS OF LIGHT NOT ANY
LONGER US TOUCHING


THEN YE HANDS 
CAN NO LONGER US REACH
THEN YE SMILE
WILL NEVER AGAIN BEGUILE


IF YE MAY
IF YE CAN
A PRAYER TO NEVER CALL
US NAMES AGAIN


REALISE, THEY ARE SWORDS
THAT PIERCE OUR HEART
THE WORDS THAT TEAR 
OUR SOUL APART

IT'S TIME ABOUT

IT'S TIME ABOUT
THAT MY SOUL DECIDED
THAT LIFE'S ABOUT
LISTENING TO MY HEART
AND DOING WHAT I DREAMT

LEST THE PAIN
OF TIME PASSED
FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE
MY MIND REPENT
AND MY SOUL TORMENT

LIES

WHEN THE STAKES ARE HIGH
SOMETIMES YOU MAY HAVE TO LIE
BUT I'LL TELL YOU SOMETHING
THE BARGAIN IS
NEVER A BUY

The TEARS then YOURS now MINE

THE UNSHED TEARS 
IN YOUR EYES
I FAILED TO SEE
THE UNSHED TEARS
I'M TOO LATE 
TO SAY SORRY



THE TEARS THAT WELLED
BUT NOT SHED
THE MOMENT
I DOUBTED
YET REFRAINED 
TO SHARE

NOW THAT 
I KNOW
SORRY
I AM
BUT VAIN MY SORROW
FOR YOU ARE NO MORE


MY HEART WASN'T 
LARGE ENOUGH
TO KNOW YOU
YOUR GENTLE BEING
NOR THE UNSHED TEARS
NOW MY SORROW


NOW THAT I
CAN ONLY WISH
THERE WHERE YOU ARE
ALL JOY AND HAPPINESS
THAT I CHANCED TO LOSE
TO GIVE YOU

THIS MY SORROW
MY SORRY NOTE
IS FOR YOU
TO SEE
IF YOU EVER
CAN SEE
CAN EVER KNOW

THE GRIP OF FEAR

MANY ARE THE SORROWS
THAT ENCOMPASS 
MY HEART
YOUR HEART
AMONGST THEM
THE SORROW OF FEAR
IS THE HARDEST TO BEAR

MANY ARE THE FEARS 
THAT GRIP
MY HEART
YOUR HEART 
AMONGST THEM
THE FEAR OF LONELINESS
IS THE HARDEST TO BEAR

REVEAL

I shall not address thee
for what thou art in my heart
words cant reveal
nor can any see

Thy presence so near 
thy mind so far
helplessly I study and
yet thy face don't reveal

I see the dark shadow
looming between the space
Art thou nearer or

so far that I can't even trace

Whence thou shall accept
whence shall I reveal
I wait in turmoil endless
with courage a little

Yet,once more I shall
take heart , take courage
pledge Love
and shamelessly REVEAL

ECHOES

What I say is
not what I say
what I say is an
Echo 
that reverberated 
somewhere
in this universe
What I say is
sometimes
what I thought
what someone thought
 and found place
in my heart
and might find
place in your 
Heart
Echoes
they are
echoes somewhere
