THE LAMENT OF THE UGLY

YE WHO ART HANDSOME 
WHAT WOULD YE KNOW 
THE PAIN OF THE UNWANTED
THE GROAN OF THE UGLY


THERE WE STAND
AWAITING A SMILE
THERE WE FALL
IN THE SNARE OF YOUR GUILE


OUR SLIGHTEST ERROR
US IT BRINGS TERROR
AGREED, DESTINY IS GREATER 
FOR THE FAIRER


REALISE ,THE REJECTION
OF OUR COURTESY
YOUR REPROACH
IT HURTS TERRIBLY


THE FAILURES THEN
FURTHER SEEMS TO LULL
THE FAILURES, THE ONE
THAT US ALWAYS BEGUILE


THEN THE MOANING 
IN THE DARKNESS
THEN THE CRYING 
THE TEARS OF THE HELPLESS


THERE WE GO 
THERE SINKING
THE RAYS OF LIGHT NOT ANY
LONGER US TOUCHING


THEN YE HANDS 
CAN NO LONGER US REACH
THEN YE SMILE
WILL NEVER AGAIN BEGUILE


IF YE MAY
IF YE CAN
A PRAYER TO NEVER CALL
US NAMES AGAIN


REALISE, THEY ARE SWORDS
THAT PIERCE OUR HEART
THE WORDS THAT TEAR 
OUR SOUL APART

IT'S TIME ABOUT

IT'S TIME ABOUT
THAT MY SOUL DECIDED
THAT LIFE'S ABOUT
LISTENING TO MY HEART
AND DOING WHAT I DREAMT

LEST THE PAIN
OF TIME PASSED
FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE
MY MIND REPENT
AND MY SOUL TORMENT

LIES

WHEN THE STAKES ARE HIGH
SOMETIMES YOU MAY HAVE TO LIE
BUT I'LL TELL YOU SOMETHING
THE BARGAIN IS
NEVER A BUY
 

The TEARS then YOURS now MINE

THE UNSHED TEARS 
IN YOUR EYES
I FAILED TO SEE
THE UNSHED TEARS
I'M TOO LATE 
TO SAY SORRY



THE TEARS THAT WELLED
BUT NOT SHED
THE MOMENT
I DOUBTED
YET REFRAINED 
TO SHARE

NOW THAT 
I KNOW
SORRY
I AM
BUT VAIN MY SORROW
FOR YOU ARE NO MORE


MY HEART WASN'T 
LARGE ENOUGH
TO KNOW YOU
YOUR GENTLE BEING
NOR THE UNSHED TEARS
NOW MY SORROW


NOW THAT I
CAN ONLY WISH
THERE WHERE YOU ARE
ALL JOY AND HAPPINESS
THAT I CHANCED TO LOSE
TO GIVE YOU

THIS MY SORROW
MY SORRY NOTE
IS FOR YOU
TO SEE
IF YOU EVER
CAN SEE
CAN EVER KNOW

THE GRIP OF FEAR

MANY ARE THE SORROWS
THAT ENCOMPASS 
MY HEART
YOUR HEART
AMONGST THEM
THE SORROW OF FEAR
IS THE HARDEST TO BEAR

MANY ARE THE FEARS 
THAT GRIP
MY HEART
YOUR HEART 
AMONGST THEM
THE FEAR OF LONELINESS
IS THE HARDEST TO BEAR

REVEAL

I shall not address thee
for what thou art in my heart
words cant reveal
nor can any see

Thy presence so near 

thy mind so far

helplessly I study and

yet thy face don't reveal

I see the dark shadow

looming between the space
Art thou nearer or
so far that I can't even trace

Whence thou shall accept
whence shall I reveal
I wait in turmoil endless
with courage a little

Yet,once more I shall
take heart , take courage
pledge Love
and shamelessly REVEAL

ECHOES

What I say is
not what I say
what I say is an
Echo 
that reverberated 
somewhere
in this universe
What I say is
sometimes
what I thought
what someone thought
 and found place
in my heart
and might find
place in your 
Heart
Echoes
they are
echoes somewhere
