Death Of Love

 

It was always you whom I thought of.

In my mind you were the pillar of love.

Who knew you were the demon from above?

For this is the death of love.

 

The key thought to open the door to your heart;

Opened the gates of hell.

Like a headless corpse, for you; I fell.

Like the last breath of a dying dove,

This is the death of love.

 

The image of your beauty haunts me.

The sorrow and anguish won’t let me be.

In a demonic rage your very presence from afar,

slashes my heart and leaves a scar.

 

Slowly withering and dying like a red rose.

Sure as a buried corpse it will decompose.

As sure as bloodstains on a white glove.

For you, it is the death of my love.

Well...well...well! It's been awhile since I last wrote in here! The last couple of weeks have been cool. Nothing new or special in my life! Figures, huh? This weekend I went camping! Probably the best camping trip I've ever been on! Yeah, truly a great experience in the great outdoors! Personally, it’s just the fact that you’re in the middle of nowhere surrounded by woods in the darkness; under a blanket of stars and the only source of light you have is the moon! The moon is a beautiful sight to behold! My presence for the trip occurred at the last minute, probably a half-hour before departure! I went with Maria, Veronica, and Betty! I basically socialized with them! We arrived at about 11:00 Friday night, as soon as we got there we set up camp and explored a lil' bit! Found what we thought was a lake, but it turned out to be a huge grass field! Then later that night, we sat around the campfire until 3:00 in the morning and decided to hit the hay... Then Saturday after coming back from the beach, Veronica, Betty, and I went into the grass field and sat on a structure of rocks! It looked nice in the afternoon. Veronica and Betty were having fun creating echoes. Then night fell upon us and it was time to gather around the campfire once again! The four of us, Maria, Veronica, Betty, and I were having a deep conversation! Veronica, Betty, and I decided to spend the entire night awake since it was our last night there! Us and the rest of what was left of the group talked and joked around. Having deep discussions around a dying fire, yet I was trying to preserve the flame that kept us warm; until the sun started to rise! At this moment we were starting to feel spiritual and also started to feel grateful for the lives that we lead. That segment ended with me saying a prayer! At 5:30 in the morning we decided to pay a last visit to what we called "The Rocks" and watch the sunrise above the mountains and trees. The sunlight hit Veronica's face and that moment lit up my day! The time had come to pack up and hit the road! Unfortunately, having to leave a place that was serene and enchanting. All in all, it was an awesome experience that I will never forget!

Now, it is my last week before I return to school and honestly I look forward to it!...It is a new school year with new teachers and new subjects!...I look forward to what this new year brings into my life, whether it be in any aspect of my life; spiritually, socially, academically, romantically,etc. Maybe a new chance with an old love, if I deserve it and if Jehovah consents it!

That is all for now!...I will continue to "Reach For The Sky, cuz tomorrow may never come"!...

Hmm....I've been wanting to make a final entry for awhile now and well here it goes!

I just don't kow what to say....all the people I hold dear. Seems to be drifting away from me. I spend so much time trying to be a nice and good friend....but then when I try to have conversations with them....they seem not to care for what I have to say!....I hold conversing with the people that I love in a high, exalted place...but it seems to me it does not matter to them.....I dunno it could be all in my head!!....They're just leading their own lives!!....They're just busy!!....I'm so confused right now!!....I have no idea what I'm feeling!!....I guess...."I Stand Alone"....and that I was "Cheating At Solitaire"..."Let The jukebox keep on playing"....but "Don't Think Twice, Its All Right"....I guess "You Win Again".....I just need some "Serenity". I wonder what would happen if I said "If You Leave Before Me" to you. I wonder what you would say.

"You Win Again"

The news is out
All over town
That you've been seen
Out running 'round
I guess that I
Should leave but then
I just can't go
You win again

This heart of mine
Could never say
What everybody knew but me
Just trusting you
Was my great sin
What can I do?
You win again

I'm sorry for
Your victim now
Cause soon his head
Like mine will bow
He'll give his love
But all in vain
And some they say
You win again

You have no heart
You have no shame
You take true love
And give the blame

I guess that I
should not complain
I love you still
You win again

I love you still
You win again
I love you still
You win again

"Don't Think Twice, Its All Right".

It ain't no use to sit and wonder why,
 If you don't know by now.
An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why,                            It don't matter anyhow.
When your rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I'll be gone,
You're the reason I'm trav'lin' on.
Don't think twice, it's all right.

It ain't no use in turnin' on your light, 
The light I've never known.
An' it ain't no use in turnin' on your light,
I'm on the dark side of the road.
 I wish there was somethin' you would do or say,
To make me change my mind and stay,
We never did  much talkin' anyway.
So don't think twice, it's all right.

It ain't no use in callin' out my name,
Like you never did before.
It ain't no use in callin' out my name,
I can't hear you any more.
I'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin' all the way down the road,
I once loved a woman, a charm I'm told.
I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul.
But don't think twice, it's all right.

I'm walkin' down that long, lonesome road,
Where I'm bound, I can't tell.
But goodbye's too good a word,
So I'll just say fare thee well I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind.
You could have done better but I don't mind.
You just kinda wasted my precious time.
But don't think twice, it's all right.

"If You Leave Before Me"

If you leave this world before me
A promise to you I shall keep
I won't fall in love with another one
Over your ashes I shall weep

If you leave before me
A promise I never will tell
About all the things we talked about
Our dark secrets I'll keep well

Chorus:
Aren't you glad, there ain't nobody listening?
Aren't you glad, that no one seems to care what we do?
Aren't you glad there ain't no one here to tell us what's right or wrong?
While we sit and we talk about nothing

What if there's no God in Heaven?
What if there's no God at all?
I promise these last years of loving you
Will be the best years of them all

This don't look like Heaven
I'm surrounded by fiery walls
For if I were to live here without you
That'd be the greatest sin of them all

Repeat Chorus

"Let The Jukebox Keep On Playing"

Oh, let that jukebox keep on playin'
Let that record roll around
Let my baby keep on sayin'
She's a lonesome gal in town
Let 'er know that I'll be waitin'
When my lonely days are through
Let the jukebox keep on playin'
Till I'm holdin' you

Oh, let those honky-tonkin' angels
Be the girls I never loved
Let 'em know its you I'm cravin'
It's you I'm dreamin' of
Let 'em know that I'll be waitin'
When my lonely days are through
let the jukebox keep on playin'
Till I'm holdin' you

Oh, let that jukebox keep on playin'
Let that record roll around
Let my baby keep on sayin'
She's a lonesome gal in town
Let 'er know that I'll be waitin'
When my lonely days are through
Let the jukebox keep on playin'
Till I'm holdin' you
