Take hold
shake me/shake me
don't let me go
grip at my core
shake me some more
I've had my fill
yet you torture me still
so shake me
and break me
and then let me rest
just don't leave me hanging
longing for peace
make up your mind
and then leave me at ease

When I left my country
I wondered what I would tell...
What to answer to those who ask?
Should I tell about the poornes?
The bars infont of the windows?
Or all that richeness...
That I wondered
Until I knew the answer...

Blue is the sky,
With it's blue eyes...
Blue are the lakes,
And Blue they remain,
White is the snow,
And so it will stay
And white are the clouds,
The sheeps of the sky...

Once again that's not mine, but a translated version of a finnish song. I had to make a few changes though. This is mine:

Sometimes it's hard
To be who I am
Sometimes it's easy
To just be me
Not to act as anyone else
Just remain my self
Quietly to stand
Alone in the mattres of sand

Curse you for cursing me
I'll tell you once again to leave me be
accept that all we had was gone
take your pride and move along
take that smile from your lips
my head held high, I'll sway my hips
and you can watch me from back there
you can keep that hate filled glare
I don't mind if you're hurting now
I just want you gone, I don't care how
because you made me suffer throughout
you made me feel used, of that - no doubt
you made me sick, afraid of me
and now I'll ask that you set me free
you don't need me anymore
so walk away and close that door
you have your life and I have mine
just leave now and all will be fine

Pride Lands
passion now sated,
the elements return to harmony.
where once raging fire
embers now banked.
waiting
for the bellows to wake them
anew.

daggers rake peach skin
sweet nectar of life beneath.
waiting
to taste their fill
again.

A young poem once asked his father poem something:
"Where do babies come from?"
"Well," said the father, thinking.
"A poem is created like this: a poet waits for an idea to come,
Then, if he is good, a idea will come to him."
"How do bad poets come up with them?"
"Well," said the father. "Many are quite dim.
They don't have a well from which ideas stem.
They have to pull ideas out of their ass."
The little poem thought about this.
"Then where did we come from, from one with a mind as clear as glass?"
"Considering the quality of this poem, probably not," the father said with a hiss.

quiet hallways,
closed lockers,
writing classrooms,
and peace is around.
minds are learing, thinking,racing,
a window is open,
the gentle breeze stirs through a students hair,
ahhh.....
the bounds of time seems large,
don't care for the moment,
about what's going on,
all it enjoys is the afternoon sun.

Lone Wolf

As the pack goes on
The lone wolf stands still
Gazing at the horizon
Wondering whats on the otehr side

Then he moves
Searching for the unknown

Ecstasy Dream

It's the fin of sin
It's making me grin
And I've been looking up at the sky
'Cause it's making me high
Seeing colors all around
It's making me feel profound

Living in a dream
it makes me scream
can't fight, can't die
I want to kill someone
So let me out
let me out

Won't you
Please let me out

Chlorine swamp
Clean and dank
Try to keep swimming
Though I already sank
Straightjacket cooridoors
Bind me in
Stitches holdin' me together
Fall apart again
Again
Again
Again
Again...
