I am the Music

 Oh mind, why do you tire?

You only find a way to my true desire. 

Oh body, why do you soften and lay still? 

After all, you but undertake my heart's will. 

I seem to have lost my way, 

I have been asking everyday, 

Where is the sun? I see only the cursed dark.

Where is the happy? the world seems numb.

Where is the music? There's only the deafening silence.

Savagely, I peel away 

At the burns, the scars and the stains, 

At the weak, the withered and the dead. 

Today, I rest, when within I find

I am the light. 

I am the happy.

I am the music. 

Will it and it will happen

Walk,
Even if your feet are crumbling
Walk ahead,
Even when your heart is trembling.

Burn,
Even if the rains are pouring with no respite
Burn stronger,
Even if only out of spite.

Fly,
Even if your wings are broken
Fly higher,
Till your soul has woken

Your heart will lead the way
Your weakness will drift away
Your withering body will find a way
Your excuses will fade away
Your strength will make a way
Your soul will break away

And all that will remain is you and your will.

When you left

The day dawned with no light,
For you took it all with you,
And we were left staring into the night,
at the face that was all that was left of you.

I know not how to go on,
without you to show me how,
what will I do with my newborn,
who will show me now?

I am left standing here,
never to feel your love again,
to hug you, kiss you or hold you near,
only an empty embrace with pain.

My home is gone,
only your house remains,
all of us in it, yet alone,
with your memories  in the rains. 

Walking Ahead and Walking Alone


The road you are on is never easy,

For you walk alone,

You move on ahead anyway,

For you can never look back,

There can be no resting,

For you can not ever just stop,

Through the storm you will tread,

For you will still burn,

You pay no heed to the fading voices behind you,

For you only see what’s ahead,

You walk ahead, you walk alone,

For the road is never easy.

Still Waters....still no more.

I stare at this wall,
Mighty and tall,
That's kept you out,
Near me, but out,

           My love, I need you to stay,
           Stay close, hold me as you lay,
           Be my strength, my light,
           Even in my darkest night,


Even in the harshest rain,
On the other side you shall remain,
And you can never see,
Never really know me,

     
           I can see in your eyes the pain,
           As you will and plead again,
           For me to open the door,
           But I choose to ignore,

For my love, If I let you in,
To all that I am and been,
I fear your tears will pour,
And the still waters shall remain still no more.

Keep on walking!

If they answer not to thy call walk alone,

If they are afraid and cower mutely facing the wall,

O thou unlucky one,

open thy mind and speak out alone.

If they turn away, and desert you when crossing the wilderness,

O thou unlucky one,

trample the thorns under thy tread,

and along the blood-lined track travel alone.

If they do not hold up the light when the night is troubled with storm,

O thou unlucky one,

with the thunder flame of pain ignite thy own heart

and let it burn alone.

Today, the war is done,

and today you have won.

Ill carry my shame tonight,

with lullabies of the fading light.

But tomorrow I will wake,

and a solemn oath i will take.

Tomorrow, another war there will be,

with all I have there I will be.

I will walk every turn,

Through the rain I will burn. 

All I do is wait...

I look up at the stars above,
and wonder what is this love,
You have no name, just an empty embrace,
so I keep running my race,
All I do is wait.


      I watch the clouds pass above,
      I know now what is love,
      that warmth of your embrace,
      but I still keep running my race,
      All I do is wait.   


I look at the moon in the dark night sky above,
I ache for the one I love,
for that mark I can hold in my embrace,
and yet I keep running my race,
All I do is wait.


      I look at the vast empty sky above,
      and I wonder my love,
      why I long for that tomorrow with your embrace,
      but today, I keep running my race,
      And all I do is wait?

Know!

Faith knows not, of a wall,

stand for, stand tall.

Thirst knows not, of a quench,

dig deeper your trench.

Desire knows not, of a deny,

reach out for that sky.

Vision knows not, of an end,

look past the bend.

Dream knows not, of a boundary,

fly high and fly free.

The world knows not, of you,

shine through your colors true.
