COST OF LOVE

Laugh you not at mebecause you I love
Spare me spite for pouring pure heavenly emotions
I could be lucky, maybe not
But still I pray
Love me back a thousand fold
If you never do, spare my heart 

What is the price of loving you?
Is it everything I am and more?
Is it just my heart
Or my flesh blood and tears
I will give it all to you and more
If I give all these and  my spirit is broken
You are not to blame
But helpe save my soul
And my tomorrow
They too are for you
They yearn for you
They are a gift

Accept them
In return give me gentle love
That is all I want
May be no more in this life
Love I want to give and receive
I want to love you
But I have to love me too

The next time you look at me
And think of me a little less than I see my self
I will be hurt, but I will not be broken
The next time you say you would wish to leave
I will let you go

OVERSTAYED VISIT

You don't need me So I thank you for the good you have done I say it in silence That way you will not sense the silent good bye It hurts me that our business in your face is done But I will remember we were brothers I will pray for you For my prayer is that you fly high and steady in the strong winds I will not forget that you helped me And the much I am or will be will acknowledge you But tonight I will pack what I can And leave your house brother Not groaning For all of us are guests in each others lives In my case I must have overstayed my visit I hope love never grows old I will find peace when it thrives again But now It is obviously used.

THE PARADOX

The fact that the reason to hold on is bigger than the reason to give up Does not trivialize your pain The fact that you neither shed a tear nor made a sound Does not mean you never cried The fact that you smiled all through the ceremony does not mean you were happy The fact that you are alive and happy Does not mean you aren't dead A strange ghost animating your body Not your dream self The fact you woke up with a plan Does not mean you aren't drifting through life The fact that you love a song Does not mean it makes you happy The fact that you woke when the alternative seemed lucrative Tells that you have outsmarted the paradox once more

KINDRED

I wish I had a friend Whose loyalty would never bend Walk with me miles on end Be plain and never pretend A cynic who would blend But to me be a kindred A spirit that knows me Keep me and my secrets just as I would  To the very end
