Broken Record

Words now spoken can’t be broken
Broken words have still been spoken

Actions taken leave you aching
Aching actions can’t be untaken

Feelings shaken can’t be stopped
Stopping feelings? can’t be blocked

Broken record, record broken
Broken words have still been spoken

Habits Formed

Habits formed, habits gained
Worst of which will remain

Sleeping in, eating late
Eating junk, miss the date

Smoked one drag, now a pack
Deadline missed total slack

C’mon man get with the plan
You know you should
You know you can

Run a mile, now not a step
A game of poker, now in debt

Sitting straight, now a slouch
Deadline missed, missed your lunch

Promise made, taken back
“Won’t be late”, total crap

C’mon, man get with the plan
You know you should
You know you can

“Yes, I can”, but you will not
“All is clean” you missed a spot

Always late, procrastinate
Simple deadline never made

Single chance on golden plate
Procrastinate? No one will wait

C’mon, man get with the plan
You know you should
You know you can

Wrongfully reflected

Of living life on lovers nest, of loving lovers we attest. Of meaning memories mark our heart, miserable moments mark it hard. Of happy hearts heard from afar, howling hoards non-healing scars. Of confidence cast a cunning course, confinding caserns hold our remorse. Of freedom feeling finally found, forcefully fixed upon the ground. Of troubled times and tables turned, tar and feather tailored returned. Beyond the falling feathers flown, freeing freedom hardened stone.

Somethinz Gotta Give

When we’re working hard around the clock
And every opportunity a buck
When hours pass like minutes gone
And plane rides are no longer fun
When we plan to see our kid’s first play
And we are constantly away

We tell ourselves everyday
As it, all starts to slip away
Somethinz Gotta Give
In this life, we chose to live

When loads on our shoulders increase
Responsibilities never seize
When we try very hard to exercise
To reduce the stress in our own lives
When we stretch ourselves to make ends meet
And we can’t stand on our own feet

We tell ourselves in everyday
As it, all starts to slip away
Somethinz Gotta Give
In this life, we chose to live

When we miss to see our lovers smile
And the chance to hold them once in a while
When the life we had is slipping away
And we can’t control our every day
When our memories begin to fade
Can’t tuck the kids cause we are late

There is nothing left for us to say
Our life we have let go astray
We’ve given in to something done
We’ve gotta give but they are gone

10 - Déjà vu

A single moment left alone
Without a sound upon my door

A sound of music in my ear
Not left alone so I can hear

Silence comes upon my world
Distant murmurs louder heard

Peace of mind now resides
Loudest ring my ear now finds

Relaxed again rest my back
Email, messenger now attack

Problem knocking now resolved
Another problem still not solved

Cig now lit breathing slow
Crowd now enters endless flow

Cig now done left to think
Meeting alert on my phone rings

Back on chair, simple smile
Family photo eyes now find

Problem knocking now resolved
Nothing more upon my door

Relaxed again rest my back
Now my brain under attack

Loving thoughts upon my heart
Sunset gone system restart

Can’t restart time is gone
Can’t undo what has been done

Another day soon will begin
For Déjà vu to settle in

9 - Confusion Conclusion

Confusion bound within our mind
Some thoughts are mean and some are kind

But they are both thoughts nonetheless
And they will leave you in a mess

So think your thoughts and blow your mind
For in your thoughts you will not find

For thoughts to leave you in a mess
You must now know is pure BS

What you should do is search your soul
That inner place that is your own

Although answers you may not find
In soul or mind they are bound to hide

So search and search until you’re through
For if in luck, you’ll find a clue

A clue that leads you deep within
To inner paths you have not been

To questions answered in your mind
Manipulated, you will find

But utter truth, and cleansed souls
A world of peace and not of war

Sincerity given without a cause
Work well done that you applause

Of this exists what we have not
Not in this world, not amongst this lot

8 - The Call

How many loved ones must we lose
Before we awake

In lighting speed before we blink
From us, you do take

Those dear and near to our hearts
Oh, we should have stayed in touch

Technology gives us no excuse
Their loss now hurts so much

How hard in pace in life’s rat race
To call it has become

With no excuse, I now do make
For yes I am but one

To discard memory, love, and grief
I have once with them shared

Now I dare to ask myself
Of loss, is it not fair?

I pray to you for me to wake

And of my time to give not take

To share one moment with those dear

Of endless memories, hold them near

To give each one what they deserve

Till the end of time to them, I serve

To be a beacon of one light

Protect their souls with all my might

To pray for them and not forget

Of them, I am with no regret

To make one call if not a few

And tell them “hey, I love you too”

Distract us not from what is worth

Of endless pleasures on this earth

Give us the strength of those who love

And pray for all who are above

Help us protect their every move

And in their heart, we leave no bruise

Oh, shed a light on this our day

To show our care in every way

For those who mean the most to us

To not feel the grief of lovers loss

For time does pass, we know not where
To our loved ones we are not there
So shed your light before it’s late
Upon our heart with all your weight

To reach out to our lovers all
To dial our heart and make the call

7 - Glass half full

An empty glass
Horizon view
A glass half full
You thought you knew

A glass half empty
Commonplace
A sip of water
With no taste

A sense once had
Is gone for good?
You ask yourself
Or so you should

Decisions taken
For the best
Outcomes mistaken
By the rest

A sacrifice
Or action done
A freedom journey
Not begun

A bitter feeling
Has now come
Words said
Can’t be undone

With empty glass
Or glass half empty
A glass half full
You now have plenty

A decision
We all will make
An empty glass
You should not take

A glass half full
Hope you decide
A fuller life
You sure will find

6 - Of Memory...

In essence you should not refrain
Of inner feelings not restrain

In endless rivers cry your soul
Across the markings on the wall

But essence is of but a word
Restrain a must not be deffered

Instilled is our room to stray
Distilled our heart for us to stay

Our mind of thoughts is overflowed
Infinite mindmapping could not hold

Desipher, wouldn’t that be grand
Of mind and soul in palm of hand

Of building blocks that top a base
A race to build of mind a place

Of memory fine or memory grim
The blocks are built and lay within

Forget remember as you may
For lost it won’t be, it will stay

For if you lose you lose the whole
The fine the grim your every soul

A shame you think? A blessing not
When all is gone it’s all you’ve got

So hold it dear for what it is
Of loved ones lost you will not miss

In memory they are with you friend
Keep that with you until the end

5 - Freedom Journey

You Saddle Up and put it on
You twist your arm and hear the song

A freedom journey now begins
With all guards down you, take it in

You’re focused yes but not by choice
Detach the clutter from the voice

You crave this feeling oh so much
A real soft feeling hard in touch

With wind that passes by so fast
You hope forever this will last

You dodge and turn with no return
You pick up speed and let it burn

You close your eyes just don’t be long
With Heightened, senses hear the song

At this same moment, you’re alone
A sense of being comes on strong

Can you now feel the butterflies?
With all the tears now in your eyes

Those tears of love and tears of joy
The wind the freedom not the noise

Detach again but grip your hands
Surrounding beauty at a glance

You put your hands upon the clutch
A feeling you detest so much

You pull in to your destination
With an exhilarating sensation

Your heart once pacing now will relax
your freedom journey now has passed

You take your helmet off your head
Upon your bike you let it rest

You wipe the tears upon your eyes
From all the wind you realize

A final glance at freedom ride
A smirk on face you cannot hide

This freedom journey now is done
You’ll wait in vain for your next one

4 - Your Demise

Of norm that hits, say no more
Of doors wide shut, speak no more

Of words unseen, shut your eyes
Of this one know, is true demise

Of happiness, known so well
Of Saddened days, just can’t tell

Of reaching out, for the unknown
Of keeping to, a comfort zone

Of answered questions, left alone
Of written words, that are not shown

Of this, speak no more
With bolts and locks upon the door

You know not what the future holds
Of endless thoughts beyond these doors

With key in hand upon a grip
Swallowed whole and let it rip

For if, this key you don’t dispose
Of your demise a two edged sword

And to this end you now must rest
Upon this patch, you rest your head

Sink beyond, close your eyes
Of this unknown lies your demise

3 - Then it hits you...

You wake up feeling all revived
Like you've been sleeping all your life
Then it hits you

You stretch your arms so far and wide
Take a deep breath end with a sigh
Then it hits you

You take the morning sunlight in
feel the warmth upon your skin
Then it hits you

You take a bite chew away
Like you’ve been doing everyday
Then it hits you

You start your journey nothing new
Switch on the radio as you do
Then it hits you

You keep your norm upon the day
With commonness in every way
Then it hits you

You rest your head and tuck it in
Before the chill comes from within
For you know now what is to come
Anticipate the coming one
With eyes wide shut, it is not there
Has it all gone have you been spared?
Then it hits you...

2 - There is more to come...

So now we are born
From mother torn
A single being
Now shaped and formed

Our feelings strong
Our close ones tight
We hit the ground with all our might

We care for all and hold no grudge
From our safe zone we will not budge

Then test of time comes knocking down
And we are lost and can’t be found

We make our way to common ground
And listen out for the calling sound

Come close my dear you’re not alone
Come near don’t fear all is not gone

The roller coaster ride begun
And we can’t stop until we’re done

Can we slow down and catch our breath
Can we for once not pass the test?

Of all our lives in all the days
We work to get out of the maze

So roller coaster in a maze
More complicated are the days

And as we grow the pressure grows
The more one now thinks he sure now knows

But you know not what you’re not told
Don’t come out strong or cold or bold

For there is reason in this life
Two loving girls a beautiful wife

Protect and serve no one but them
For they are with you till the end


A simple smile a loving glance
You now can live a life of chance

With all the love and all respect
A life of love now sure is best

Behold for now your time has come
Be bold be strong but have some fun

For life is short they all do say
So live it well enjoy your day

Don’t complicate what you know not
And live the life you now have got

A feeling of eternal bliss
In this rat race we sure can miss

Slow down don’t run it is just time
For in the end all will be fine

Of all the things, I promise this
A hopeful life of eternal bliss

Big word for just another soul
But say it strong while you stand tall

Be bold be strong and don’t you bend
For this is the beginning it’s not the end

1 - So from the start...

A loving home with lots to give and sacrifice for the taking
It shapes us right it shapes us wrong; we are beings in the making

When love surrounds our every move, a loving mother who is so caring
We are shaped and molded in ways not known; life is ours for the taking

We grow to be loving souls although selfish we may become
Of all the ones we care to love and miss she is the one

So no matter where the road may lead as Frost has made so clear
We choose a path and hope we keep and hold it near so dear

For she has done the best she can with six loving careless souls
Whom she built and shaped to be...Of her I cannot say no more

Although I will and she has earned a love of six and their respect
What we become and what we choose does not mean she failed the test

For words can only say so much and rhyme is but a choice
For me to share with all y’all her loving caring voice

Although a mess it may not be I promise with six it can
The odds are against our loving decree and Vegas for us has a plan

So fear no fear and love for all as she has taught you well
What you become and how you live puts you in heaven or hell

You crave a drag, a joint a pill or God forgive put it under your skin
It’s yours not hers it’s a choice not peers you choose what you are in

So blame but you, fortunate, or not, as you have now become
You choose the path you take the road a dead end for all will come

For death has looked us in the eye, through our brothers own
For we were six and now we’re five and one of us is gone

Does that have meaning? Has it changed? Have five really passed the test
For God has given us a call a thorough painful test

A time we remembered the loss the grief a true feeling of distress
We have all lost a part of us but have not passed the test

I look at all, but I can't judge, who we are and what we’ve become
However, all too soon we realize, yes she is the only one
She made us strong and weak at times for love is all but gone

So now the love that which we choose forever at our dispense
Is it what we make it all to be or a word in the past tense?

Oh get me right don't get me wrong
For this is a word I hold so strong

Yes, we believe as she has taught us to see
In love in a moment caught you will be

But can we ever carry through?
Forget a feeling that we once knew?

Will we as beings pass the test?
And live a life without distress

Of love, they say it is a sword with edges on both sides
A choice to stab and then retreat we must all choose our lives

But blame your life’s misfortunes, or love, whichever it may be
On you, your own, your choice, your love, whichever you will see

For you will see that we all know the life we choose on taking
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood your life you will be making

So if you are one who is weak at will, and fear what you will become
Remember you and do not forget that of your choices you are the one

And don't be fooled of the little bones that God has thrown your way
For a healthy dog you soon may be unless you go astray

An easy choice we all may think
But who are we to see?

The truths of love and life
That it wants us to be

Don’t get me wrong and don't you think
That I may know of this loving thing

For all I know that which you must
A loving soul, a caring heart, a life to give and not your own
Other than that, we are all but lost

But I will try to give you hope yes, she has taught me well
Or so I think, and in God believe our soul we must not sell

A loving wife a gift from God two loving girls to pass the test
I know the fortune of what I have and I will treat it well

We pray to you our every lord to help us be forever strong

In all your teachings of this life
A world more ruthless than a knife

Protect our soul,
Protect our love
Protect our loved ones from it all

From all the urges we might get
Of endless pain, that holds our chest

I turn to you, as we all should
To make us strong as you once could

For we are weak and you are strong
In heaven our loved ones belong

A life of love that we hold dear
However far, however near

Oh, give us strength to stay our course
A life of love and no remorse

For repeatedly we choose
Help us is in choice so we don’t lose

Of life and love, it is but hard
We choose the game, we dealt the card

We promise to forget you not
For life once gone, love is all we’ve got

So you keep strong and hold your course, as was once said without remorse...

I wish all well, I wished me best
To live this life and pass the test

Don’t be afraid to take a chance and give this life a second glance
Go on fly away and live it right
And fight this life with all your might

For of your mother's soul you have
And we have heard your loving laugh

And be not weak for you are strong
And lead the life that you belong

For high or mighty life may be
Love is weak and so are we

I leave you now to think this through
And do with it what you all must

For we are weak we are not strong
I wish us love beyond our dust

As we are set down in our rest
I hope we all can pass the test

Of every conviction and faith
Our life, our love is worth the wait

For what is life that is not lived
And what is love but an internal gift

Be remembered not for what you have done
But for everything you have now become

A wonderful self such meaningful words
Something to keep beyond this earth
