Quote of the Day

There are moments when one has to choose between living one's own life, fully, entirely, completely - or dragging out some false, shallow, degrading existence that the world in it's hypocrisy demands.


- Brander Matthews

Many a nights I lay awake…

Sometimes I lie awake at night, and I ask, “Where have I gone wrong?”
Then a voice says to me, “This is going to take more than one night.”

- Charles M. Schulz (1922 - 2000), Charlie Brown in “Peanuts”

Many a nights I lay here awake,
Thinking of what I’ve done,
All the mistakes I’ve made,
All the problems from which I’ve run.

I know I’ve done wrong,
I know that I’ve erred,
But what can I do?
all my plans smudged and blurred.

I promise myself I’ll do better tomorrow,
I promise I won’t make the same slip,
I know I can improve myself,
I know I need to get a grip.

I slowly fall asleep,
Into the world of dreams,
The promises fade away,
I’ll make the same mistakes it seems.

Night after night,
the same thoughts go through my mind,
Yet, why can’t I see the truth,
Why am I so blind?

Hope Fades Away

Posted on October 8th, 2008 by The King.

Hope fades away
Wishes never come true,
Those who you think will always be there
Will actually never stay with you.

Stranded on an island,
I see the waves passing by,
I move to the oceans,
Hoping it washes away the lies.

If I stand here and pray,
Will my faith come near?
If I stand here and finish,
Will my thoughts be clear?

I move deeper into the water
Hoping it will save me
I move far away from the land,
Wishing it could set me free.

I think I found my freedom,
Far away from everyone.
At least I went down quietly,
At least I didn’t take out my gun.

You Don’t Get It You Fool

Posted on October 8th, 2008 by The King.
Categories: POEMS.

Have you ever been used?
Ever been beaten down?
Given your soul for something you love,
but just been played around?

Have you ever felt like I feel?
Been used to mask the lies?
Just been a part of the puzzle,
Left to rot as the mission dies?

Has your heart ever been broken,
Into a million pieces and one?
Has your chest ever hurt,
Like you’ve been shot with a gun?

You lie to yourself,
Hoping you will find a cure,
Making yourself believe,
Other’s intentions are pure.

But each time you do this,
You make yourself feel worse,
But each time you do this,
You just lengthen the curse

You don’t know how to feel
You don’t know what to think,
You don’t know what to say,
You don’t know when to blink.

When you kiss me…

Posted on October 8th, 2008 by The King.
Categories: POEMS.

When you kiss me,
I lose all sense of feeling but one – happiness
All my tensions leave me
My body gets a jolt of energy
My mind is rejuvenated

When you kiss me,
I hear a sweet melody in my ear
Like the sun is coming out of the clouds,
I see the winds making the leaves dance in a beautiful rhythm
I find hope in all the pain

When you kiss me,
I feel weightless like I’m floating
I feel like heavens are shining down upon me,
I feel like a kid who just got his Christmas gift
I feel like a man who just achieved victory.

When you kiss me,
I want to hold you tight and never let you go,
I want to make you happy,
I want to see you smile, see you laugh,
I want to look into your eyes and tell you how gorgeous you are.

When you kiss me,
You make me fall for you all over again.

When I look into your eyes

Posted on October 8th, 2008 by The King.
Categories: POEMS.

When I look into your eyes,
I see something beautiful,
I see a place where everything’s gonna be alright,
Where I feel secure.

I see a whole different world out there,
The sounds of little boys and girls laughing,
The smell of roses in the air,
The gentle warmth of the sun.

Imagine you and me alone,
Alone on an island with everything we’ll ever need,
Just me and you, no one to judge.
That’s what I see in your eyes.

Ever been on a hill at night?
The full moon shining and the stars sparkling brighter than usual,
It’s quite, but not overwhelming,
That’s what your eyes show me.

They say when you’re on Mount Everest,
There’s so much silence that you can hear God,
That’s what I feel when I gaze upon your eyes
I feel a connection with a higher being, like my spirit is being freed.

There’s so much wrong with the world today,
Wars, dirty politics and what not,
But there’s something in your eyes that tells me,
Everything will get better, it gives me hope.

That’s why I love looking into your eyes,
Because they show me true beauty and a feeling nothing else can give me.
