I had so much alone time my soul didn&#8217;t impair
But then I started to be everything I was supposed to be
And my life became acceptable to everyone but me.
But going on, the yous were never satisfied
I wanted to make the yous happy and boy did I try
I adopted [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The sun is setting on the west,
In vain, the young try to protest,
But fate struck hard where they did lack
It&#8217;s just too late for fighting back.
The deed is done.
The bad have won.
And we have nothing but to wait
Until the gods become irate.
For we are in the underground
Down where we will ne&#8217;er be found,
Creating beauty from [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A poem about male lust.

_______________________________________________________________________________________

Who are you? Or haven’t I asked before? Oh woman, that you should remain secret within my dreams.
You say we must keep quite about us. Yet, with haunting screams, you cry out of our affair.
I remember your form, but your face I don’t recall. If only I had cared. Have you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Love is a lesson of betrayal-
So much to expect,
So less to give.
I am sorry,
I wanna hurt you
But you know
I am no God.
To forgive you
I must forget you-
Something, no matter
How hard I try,
I cannot do.
I wish you well.
Go away if that’s
What you want
But I wanna make
U feel what I felt-
This very life
Can be hell!
I so readily
Gave [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Streams of golden sunshine
Broken by new shiny leaves,
Kids chasing butterflies
And the smell of new-mown grass.
That’s where I lived yesterday.
 
Waves of ecstasy exploding
In my unsteady head,
Red roses strewn all over the place,
Is it chocolate pudding I taste?
 
 I walked a million majestic miles
To reach the gross ruin you see.
I got stuck in grimy mud once
That crossed my [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[See,
See the burn on the ice
Where she had set her lips;
Water that flowed down her hair
Formed raging rivers of honey and milk;
The notes she touched are still found
Quivering with delight in the mesmerized air.
She is the poet’s gift to the world.
 
Go,
Go, dear Verse,
Fall on her ears
And whisper the unspoken wish-
“Come, touch him,
Come, fill him;
He needs [...]]]></description>

Im not standing here

I’m dancing all around
But sometimes I look back
And wonder if I was wrong
And if I asked you
I know you wouldn’t even respond
You never wanted to influence
Me deciding where I belonged.
 So I’m moving on now
Cause you wanted it that way
But I hope you know
I may never feel the same way
And I have [...]]]></description>

The odd note in a song, the angle of a man’s smile, the familiar lilt in a laugh will suddenly open a floodgate of memories.
