Death you have brought me here ~
To tranquillity in serene bed
‘To decay with nature who is so sincere
But I wish in life more ladies read

From heaven looking on the lamentation
My coffin being laid to sleep

Crazy
That hits my heart so deep

Tides gather, foaming.
Clouds gather, brewing.

Fog gathers, swirling.
Wool gathers, dreaming.

They should run in the fragrancy of May
Not mourning over what cannot be

Right now too hard to see

Light hides darkness.
Darkness hides shadows. ;
Shadows hide bodies, A young lady I’ve spent time with

Pours her heart on my grave
Great love she spoke, only heard in myth
Echoed like an endless cave |

Bodies hide minds.
Thought falters, stops.
Thought is lost.
Sanity trips, sprawls.
Sanity is lost.

Moon gathers tides.
Moon gathers sanity.
Tides return, regather.
Sanity flees, hides.
Watch the moon.
Watch the tides.
Watch the shadows.
Watch your sanity.
One slip, one fall.
Eternity.

So there was a gal who mourned my death
Now haply here do lie
For when she weeps her dying breath
I'll catch her in the sky

Listening to my families anger and frustration

Moods should alter to ecstatic fun and play

Free Your Imagination

When colours fall, the sky is still
green because the grass is
blue enough to smile
at the deer and the antelope horns;
go free, and leave your chains of
knowledge.

As The Berlin Wall Stands Today

As the Berlin Wall stands today
Is my hope for the human race
Is my new found Christian faith
As the Berlin Wall stands today

Did you hear that grating roar
Are you deaf can you hear no more
As east and west at that wall tore
Reunited at last by that grating roar

Hope and happiness paved the war;
To a new pleasure and united day
But as for me religions ray
Is as the Berlin Wall stands today
