26. WASTED TIME
Hurry and worry
and hustle and wait,
the world's filled with love,
the world's filled with hate.
Go here,
do this,
get up with the sun;
sit here,
stand there,
where do we run.
I'm so tired of deadlines
of rushing with time -
and when it's all over
what do I find?
But wasted moments
better used to a fuller extent,
in stopping a minute
for time well spent.
In listening
and helping
and loving each other,
for who is everyman
but youe sister and brother;
and in loving someone else
I've only helped myself
gain something that lasts longer
than time itself.
27. Please love don't desert me
you're all I have left.
My hopes and desires,
and all the rest,
have vanished - gone old.
And now -
I'm feeling so lonely
I'm feeling so cold.
Please love don't desert me
don't relinquish your hold
on my heart
on my soul.
It's my only desire.
please love don't put out
that one tiny fire.
28. Hmmm..another missing one.
29. FEELINGS
Frustration,
and loneliness -
what can I do.
Wish there was someone
with whom to talk to.
To tell how I'm feeling
to hold when I cry
to give some answers
when I ask "why?"
So many people
watching outside.
But no one's there
to come inside
where my need is greatest
where all I can do
is sit back and wait
and pull myself through.
The feelings
and build up -
so hard to take.
But then sweet release
I finally make.
And I'm left shattered,
weak and unfeeling.
My heart is empty,
my head is reeling.
Time to pick up the pieces
put it together again.
Make another effort.
Make another stand.
30. PRECIOUS MOMENTS
Precious moments
with you.
Like drops of golden dew
to a thirsty man.
Each moment -
savored.
I'm loving you...
your touch,
your smell,
your feel,
your kiss.
Your tenderness -
awakening me
to places I've never been
before.
31. Pursuing thoughts
thoughts of ideas
wondering if what I see
is sunshine
or
just an illusion
for me.
32. The thoughts I feel for you sometimes
like riding the crest of a wave.
Trying to reach across the miles
and give them to you to save.
Thoughts of feelings I'd love to give you
but afraid to see you fly -
just want to explore the feelings together
before these too - die.
Don't want to take anything from you
just want to give you for a while
to love and share and care today
before it's gone tomorrow.
So here I sit
alone and apart
wishing somehow to reach your heart
and tell you that for every love lost
there's another love to save.
33. BEACH CASTLE MAN
Now look what's happened
now look what you've done -
you've opened the door
and turned the light on.
And oh i am frightened
and oh I am scared
of the feelings I've shown you
of the things that we've shared.
And the door keeps revolving
and oh how I've tried
to leave your soft comfort
now there's nowhere to hide.
And I find I don't want to
and I really don't care
to leave what's been offered
and what I've found there.
For when you hold me so deep
in the warmth of your arms
and make it so easy to stay there
enveloped in your charms.
So let's enjoy to the fullest
of each fleeting moment
to live and love
as long as we're in it.
34. WHY?
Oh why
oh why
does love make me cry?
it can feel so beautiful
and get me so high
oh why then
oh why
does love make me cry?
Oh why
oh why
did you make me die?
your touch was so pleasing
it makes my heart sigh
but why then
oh why
does its thought
make me die?
35. SEE-SAW
One moment up
next moment down
Outside I smile
when inside I frown.
All of these changes
wish I knew what to do
When all that I wish
is to be quiet with you.
But, seems you're too busy
to notice or care
of how I am feeling
of when I am there.
And I know you don't mean to
it's how things happen to be
but sometimes I'm so lonely
oh why can't you see?!
Don't want your whole time -
Just a moment or smile
To say "I understand"
or hold me a while.
36. Once -
When I was
down and out.
I called to you -
I tried to shout.
But -
things just
remained the same.
No one heard.
No one came.
