A Hurt Lover’s Lonesome Night

 A Hurt Lover’s Lonesome Night

 

Late night hush

Silence transcends to heavenly stars

Eternal lights never knowing sleep

Countless secrets they keep

No horoscope, no divination could give insight

And Allmighty God chose not to speak that night

Just like yesterday

Or the day before

And before and before and before

But one day, some day, we hope for more

 

Ten thousand agonies of a heart broken

Emotions overflowing yet nothing spoken

Except for the screaming of her misty tears

And the sounds of creations that have been echoing for years

It is not that there is no voice

It is that we refuse to hear

And that is by choice

 

Who has not known woe?

Or felt the bitter pain?

That nobody could know

Let alone explain

 

And so she remains in her solitude

Cept for the infinite stars above

And thus we conclude

Keeping in tact the mystery known as Love

Just One More

Just One More

 

Hera got in a rage with the ageless Zeus

She cried baby just maybe I’ll turn you loose

The god of Olympus replied with lightning and thunder

He cried Hera girl let me fill you with wonder

 

I was walking out the door

And she cried just one more

I said we’ve been here before

She smiled just one more

 

The story of Pocahontas is a sad lullaby

By the Mississippi River we hear her cry

She asks the whimsical question which is why

Love songs are eternal they never die

 

I was walking out the door

And she cried just one more

I said we’ve been here before

She smiled just one more

 

I gave you orange roses it was your favorite kind of flower

We made love at midnight and talked into the early hours

So why am I crying when I know that my sins are forgiven

Why am I crying when God has taken you to heaven

 

And words of a song will never make it right

Bob Dylan is perishing but you see him fight

There are mysteries not meant to comprehend

The truth is that all good things come to an end

 

I was walking out the door

And she cried just one more

I said we’ve been here before

She smiled just one more

 

If I was Shakespeare I wouldn’t write a tragedy

Simple human kindness is the world’s remedy

When I say I love you know my words are pure

If you desire my fire than yes just one more

 

I was walking out the door

And she cried just one more

I said we’ve been here before

She smiled just one more

Cigarettes and Psychosis

 Cigarettes and Psychosis

 

Puffing upon the front steps

Multiple diagnosis

Cigarettes and psychosis

Hocus pocus

Life's role

Years became a marvelous magician

Once a young man

Abounding in ambition

Studying engineering

Now appearing

Broken down

Face full of a frustrated frown

Shadows under his eyes

An appearance pale in pain

Learned life's lustful lies

Now insane

 

Society

Stigma

Ostracized

The man in the mirror

Mesmerized

Socially crucified

Brunt of a cruel callous joke

See him smoke

Fear, hatred upon which the focus

Cigarettes and psychosis

True Love’s Call

 True Love’s Call

 

I hear at night my true love call

I know not any more precious sound

The sweetest of angels sometimes fall

 

My beauty, my soul, my passion, my all

I look to you for in you I’m found

I hear at night my true love call

 

I beg of you a kiss if but small

Let me help you to where you are bound

The sweetest of angels sometimes fall

 

You are a dream so fondly I recall

I perceive a whisper I chase round and round

I hear at night my true love call

 

Heaven without you stands not so tall

The essence of love now walks the ground

The sweetest of angels sometimes fall

 

On the cross for water they gave you gall

Why have you forsaken me, the words resound

I hear at night my true love call

The sweetest of angels sometimes fall

Go On Tyrone

Go On Tyrone

 

Down in the righteous red raspberry field                 

Where even politicians promise to yield                   

There lies a dog who is longing for a bone               

And all the cheerleaders are cheering alone              

 

Go on Tryone score one for the team

Go on Tyrone life is but a dream

Go on Tyrone hear the scream

Go on Tyrone score one for the team

 

Momma loves you baby so says Julie

Johnnie Ninety-Nine says I miss you truly

Alexander sees in the crowd an empty space

You gotta earn heaven even if saved by grace

 

Go on Tryone score one for the team

Go on Tyrone life is but a dream

Go on Tyrone hear the scream

Go on Tyrone score one for the team

 

Marvin Gay lost his way in a distant day

We got free speech is a slogan they all say

Capitalist stooges sucking up to billionaires

You can’t get lunch but we got plenty of prayers

 

Go on Tryone score one for the team

Go on Tyrone life is but a dream

Go on Tyrone hear the scream

Go on Tyrone score one for the team

 

We are lining up trying to make the church great again

Ekong is praying the people swaying where’s the amen

We love you Jesus but hey I got this nine to five

I write poems but tricky rhymes ain’t gonna help me survive

 

The truth is that life is hard for the youth

Astro physics presents equations hard to refute

The seven star general I don’t salute

Percy got his pipe and he’s planning to toot

 

Go on Tryone score one for the team

Go on Tyrone life is but a dream

Go on Tyrone hear the scream

Go on Tyrone score one for the team

Facing Fifty

 Facing Fifty

 

Fifty

Half a century

Less on my head

More on my behind

Less ahead, more behind,

Talking about my walk

Years, tears, fears

Seriously contemplating the end

Thinking about my friends

Where they are?

Near or far?

Mourning mom and dad

The best I had

Understanding what really matters

Love, family, righteousness

Some bitter bones underneath

A couple of crappy teeth

Haven't gotten it all figured out

Got a little doubt

Only believe what I see with my eyes

Learned to be a little wise

Damn certain the government lies

I could say a whole lot for sure

Hope I make fifty more

The Wind

The Wind

Who taught the wind to blow?

Do you know?
Was it the birds?
Was it the trees?
That’s not what I heard
Could you tell me please?

Who taught the sun to shine?
Its warmth and beauty so fair
It’s not yours it’s not mine
It’s for all to share

Who taught the rain how to fall?
To bring life to one and all

Isn’t it plain to see?
It was the God of Eternity

Silly Suze

 Silly Suze

 

Back in the olden days when the sky above was still blue    

When love was a word that was righteous and true               

There was a folk singer who blew in like the wind               

He cried I come from the crossroads born in sin                    

 

Silly Suze gives sloppy kisses of truth

What do you expect from a youth

Silly Suze she’s going all the way

Silly Suze is waiting for Judgment Day

 

In sixty-seven a gift from heaven touched down in June

Apollo tried while Aphrodite cried at the moon

Three chords with some clever words can be turned to gold

On the auction block in the name of rock sold

 

Silly Suze gives sloppy kisses of truth

What do you expect from a youth

Silly Suze she’s going all the way

Silly Suze is waiting for Judgment Day

 

Well the struggle goes on it’s really a fight against lies

If you can’t sell records there’s other merchandise

Say hey Willie May what happened to your soul

In the Hard Rock Café it paid for my toll

 

Silly Suze gives sloppy kisses of truth

What do you expect from a youth

Silly Suze she’s going all the way

Silly Suze is waiting for Judgment Day

 

Lawyers in lust can redeem on a technicality

Vegas or bust we’re redefining reality

Every mad man is buying a machine gun

You reap as you sow so shall it be done

 

So many faces the mirror shows a haunted stranger

They tried to warn you not to ignore the danger

We’re all dealt cards you got three jokers and two queens

The rage of the age now unknown to the teens

 

Silly Suze gives sloppy kisses of truth

What do you expect from a youth

Silly Suze she’s going all the way

Silly Suze is waiting for Judgment Day
