This was written in 1999


WOULD YOU CALL ME "DEATH"
If I were to sit in disgrace

would you wipe the tears from my face?

If I were to stand alone

would you let me dissipate until gone?

If I were to hang my weary head in shame

would you continue to play the game?

If I were to put forthe my all

would you kneel if I were to fall?

If I were to tell you my entirerty

would you exicute me?

If I were to reveal what was truly with in

would you fear my sin?

If I were to hold out my hand

would you venture into my dark land?

If I were to spew forthe evils from my forked tongue

would you speak praise for the things I have sung?

If I were to lay my bleeding heart upon the floor

would you say we are even in score?

If I were to steal away in the night

would you sleep with out fright?

If I were to break down and cry

would you say that my emotions were a lie?

If I were to take you final breath

would you call me "DEATH?"

dwells in every soul...

This poem is very final it is the end of the one perhaps the all but who am i to say

I know the way i see bitterness engulf me
Im blindded by the bitter cold
In my search for a dream of gold

Down the years my ears don't hear
As i listened for the cheer crowds
That deafen all who hear

I cannot feel what i have broken
by the years my senses are stolen
now all remains is dust and forsaken

  Did you write the Book of Love
And do you have faith in God above
If the Bible tells you so
Do you believe in rock 'n roll
Can music save your mortal soul
And can you teach me how to dance real slow

 Now for me some words come easy
But I know that they don't mean that much
Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch
You never knew what I loved in you
I don't know what you loved in me
Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be
