Lifetime Pain

All in my mind

All you need is love

Love is a drug

Love me do

Do you feel like I do

Do you wanna dance

Dancing in the streets

Dance in my blood

Blood on the ground

Blood, sweat, and tears

Tears of a clown

Tears of joy

Joy Division

Joy To the World

World without love

World in my eyes

Eye of the tiger

Eyes of a child

Children of the moon

Child of time

Time is on my side

Time of the season

Season cycle

Season of the witch

Witch craft

Witchy Woman

Woman to woman

Woman like me

Me and Julio down by the school yard

Me myself and I

I don’t want to spoil the party

I am one

One is the loneliest number

One step closer

Closer to God

Closer to the heart

Heart breaker

Heart of glass

Glass onion

Glass houses

Houses of the holy

House of the rising sun

Sunshine of your love

Sun king 44

King for a day fool for a lifetime

King of pain

Lifetime…

Pain…

High Stars

Take on Me

Take my down to the Paradise City

Cities in dust

City of Gold

Golden years

Gold dust woman

Woman like me

Woman in chains.

Chains of love

Chain of fools

Fool on the hill

Fool in the rain

Rainbow connection

Rain drops keep falling on my head

Head like a hole

Head down

Down in a hole

Down under

Under the boardwalk

Under the cherry moon

Moonlight drive

Moon dance

Dance dance dance

Dance in my blood

Blood sweat and tears

Bloody well right

Right down the line

Right of way

Way to San Jose

Way you are

Are you gonna go my way

Are you gonna be my girl

Girl afraid

Girls just want to have fun

Fun fun fun

Fun to be had

Had to fall in love

Had to cry today

Today is greatest day I’ve ever known

Today’s gonna be a good day

Daydream in blue

Day light

Lights go down

Light my fire

Fire and Rain

Fire in the Sky

Sky full of stars

Sky high

High…

Stars…

The Uninvited 

This is for people who aren’t invited 

Whose names don’t make others excited.

The ones at the top of their classes 

Socially awkward and wearing glasses.

Wanting above all else just to belong 

But being treated like they’re wrong.

Incessantly picked on and mocked out loud 

Because they don’t fit in with the crowd.

Being unique isn’t at all bad 

But it drives the unoriginal mad.

Persons that are smart, eccentric, unique 

Get relegated as losers or freaks.

I’m proudly among those few 

Cast aside and set askew.

Happy to be my odd duck self 

Even if I was left on the shelf.

Our minds are free and artistry true 

It’s the only thing that we can do.

I say this happily braving every snub 

Wholeheartedly a member of the loser’s club.

Dances and parties that others would share 

Most of us were uninvited, unneeded, not there. 

Later in life though, our value is known 

When we eventually come into our own.

So never count out  n this motley crew 

In this current day and age 

For we all know what to do 

When we’re released from our cage…

Music Saves Me

Filter applied to image by Dreamstime.Com

The notes I play

Say what I say

Every day

Music in songs.

The tunes I hear

Dispel my fears

Erase my tears

Where I belong.

Love many styles

Music for miles

Or in store aisles

Songs, short or long.

Reduce my stress

When life’s a mess

Music’s the best

Keeping me strong.

Lyrics that touch

Gives me a crutch

When hurts too much

It’s never wrong.

Many playlists

Very long lists

And songs with twists

I never yawn.

Since, in the end

Music, my friend

A gift that mends

Before we’re gone…

In Good Company

Everyone of us is special

So much so, it makes me tremble

We all have a big gift

Putting many words together

Intricate birds of a feather

Which gives our world a lift.

Our talents span many a form

Creativity is our norm

Writing, our ‘artist type’

Most with much of our craft to do

Poems, stories, and essays too

Sharing these is our hype.

Our various books will come out

Myriad contents they’re about

Entertaining masses

Amazon and other book stores

As our readers want more and more

Providing them passes…

Life Party

Blackened

Black Celebration

Celebrate, good times, come on

Celebrate me home

Home sweet home

Homeward Bound

Bound for hell

Bound by love

Love hurts

Love is the Seventh Way

Way we were

Way down

Downward Spiral

Down under

Under the boardwalk

Under a raging moon

Moon is up

Moonlight drive

Drive my car

Drive me crazy

Crazy, I think that I’m falling

Crazy for you

You got another thing coming

You better run for your life

Life is what you make of it

Life is beautiful

Beautiful dreamer

Beautiful Boy

Boys will be boys

Boys don’t cry

Crying, over you

Cry me a river

River boy

River runs red

Red red wine

Red rain

Rain on me

Rain is falling

Falling in love

Falling from grace

Grace and mercy

Grace under fire

Fire down below

Fire in the hole

Hole in my shoe

Hole in my life

Life of the party

Life after life

Life…

Party…

Lifetime Pain
