be still

quiet your mind
i know that you fear
the emotion between us
but understand that i care
no long for that feeling
i can only tell you
how you make me feel
i know i have said wonderful
many times
but it is impossible to say
the fulfillment you have put in my heart
i have not spoken of love
for it seems i have pledged that before
and i thought i was sure
only to be rejected
or to realize that i was in love with being in love
my heart tells me
what i am feeling toward you is real
i can feel your acceptance
i am willing to walk the path
i want to give you my heart
and want your heart in return
so my hand is reaching for your
so quiet your mind

what the hell

he looked at her
and said with a smile
what's your sign
she waited just awhile
he leaned toward her
and with her own style

says what the heck
no i don't mean that
what the hell oh well
what the hell

she said it wasn't over
she would give the man
one more chance
but when he left and
the door was closed
just a line in the sand

says what the heck
no i don't mean that
what the hell oh well
what the hell

she sings her song
and they all join in
she plays the crowd
can't wait for her to begin
for her to show them
there hearts she can win

says what the heck
no i don't mean that
what the hell oh well
what the hell

her life is a shambles
she helps all who need
a mother to many
a lover to some indeed
and won't cry from the pain
her eyes you can't read

says what the heck
no i don't mean that
what the hell oh well
what the hell

perhaps in the darkness
the sound of rain
not a cloud in the sky
but rain still it came
red eyes in the morn
smile on her just the same

says what the heck
no i don't mean that
what the hell oh well
what the hell

different

you are different
i try to make love to you
and it is different
i am afraid and hesitate
afraid to put my manhood to the test
you accept that and accept all that i give
yet i feel totally satisfied
how can that be
what is this fatal attraction
i have for you
you are very attracted to me
and i am amazed
for you offer me so much
and i fear to give my all
you are not my dream girl
in other women what you have would cause me to run
but in you i am drawn in
i'm not complaining
just need to say it out loud
so i can be sure of my feelings
you are a dream of a woman though
you are stunning
your voice is an acquired taste
of which now i can't get enough
i'm just saying
you are different
and you make me feel different
better than i've felt before
so if i act like i'm enjoying you
i am
if i don't say the words
i still mean them
and if i just look at you
please understand
you are different
but you are so right for me
different


i don't know how to say good bye

sorry that i said i love you
you just were so nice to be with
it seemed i was your dream
and all we did felt so good
so i hope you can not be so hurt
for know i only felt joy
i don't know how to say good bye
for i could take you in my arms
and feel no remorse
for i truly did love you
at that moment
when i held you and made love to you
but i turned to leave and felt so lucky to have you
that i couldn't
i lied to you instead
rather than depart
i could now take your hand
and feel the good thoughts again
i don't how to say good bye
so if i see you again
i will still feel the urge to kiss you
and hold you
but i just sit while you walk away
i just don't know how to say good bye

thoughts

trying to sort out my feelings
said i was in love
but now i don't know
do i want everything
or is nothing better
can i be happy being sad
or do i have any feelings at all
i know that in her arms i feel good
shutting out the rest of the world
but then i leave and i don't know
what i want
i need that slap in the face
the pain of reality
some hardness that hurts
i want to feel
without the fear
for i know that someone will be hurt
and of that i'm not afraid
but being alone is a different kind of hurt
i just can't stop
why can't i feel safe
or is all of this a lie
i hold her
and enjoy her
and tell her i love her
but i don't tell her i am afraid
i don't want her to know
for if i tell her the truth
then i will have to face it
face the loss of love
that i had before
am i over the hurt
not pain but hurt
my heart was torn from me
am i past that
i thought i was
i say i am
so afraid to be without love
have i said too much
too soon
or am i afraid that i am in love
and the past is really gone
and the present is what i am hiding from
what am i feeling
just don't know

hear my silence

thinking of you
felt your tender touch
i know that you want to be courted
but you must know that
i
can't wait to see you
idle words only cause me to
feel feelings that are hard
no impossible
for me to control
so don't ask me to feel
pain
the pain of not being with you
of not holding you
let me wait in silence
listening to the wind
hearing the call of the sea
no now the rain
for when i think of you
it is not in words and phrases but in passion
so when i hold you
you will feel my passion
till then
hush and listen to my silence

right

i don't know what tomorrow will bring
i just know that in your arms
i am real
and right now that is all i need
don't want to look into the future
enjoying the pain of now too much
just wish that i could hold you
cause right now that is all i need
sleep will come
and i will dream
but when i awake
i will still long to be
next to you
cause right now that is all i need
if i look back
and see the past
i have to smile
and thank the time that was
for i know that it was good
but here i am now looking down
cause right now that is all i need
the sun sets slowly
a golden ball falls into the sea
reminding me that
i can't change the path
but can only observe on my way
and when it is dark
i need not the light to see
only that the steps must be taken
and the footprints will be washed away
cause right now that is all i need
