Among the ruins of my hopes
I was the constant dreamer
Wounded by your arrows
Oh timeless maiden of love

Yet your power does fail me
When ever I do give my heart
I become the constant looser
when love does seem to part

and all the invisible scars
That my heart always indures
Will leave a permanet mark
That shall never ever heal

So do not cast your arrows
Toward my heart any more
For I can't bear the sorrow
That they do have in store

Goddess of love  spare me
From your whims and cares
Take your arrow from my heart
For there is no love there
Butterfly so very high
within' the sky.....but
at one time, you were
merely.....a callipillar
just crawling... on by
and who were to say
at that time, that you
were to become a bea-
utiful flying butter fly
so high within' the sky
and flying all the way
to morocco just to die
and bringing life unto
other painted lady but-
ter flies did the Creator
inform you when you
were clinging unto the
vine or did you know
within' your heart that
some day you would fly
so high when you were
just a callipillar crawl-
ing on by
the roar of the ocean
will always be there
even if mankind isn't
around to even care

and on my sorjoourn
for all my inner peace
I roamed the oceans
of all the restless seas

and the rippled sway
of the luminous surface
reflected the full moon
like none other place

it eased all my sadness
with all of it's mystery
and it's soothing sound
dulled all my anxieties

the waves never ceasse
they roll on endlessly
soothing my inner mind
with it's inner rhapsody
An island bids
Salvation does come
Hpefully tired
You think you've won

Until you discover
The island has sunk
And once again
You have trusted love

Love will drown you
Within' it's tide
Disroy what you built
With all it's might

Initially it comes
In it's disguise
Until too late
You finally realize
And you do drown
Within' it's tide
I do know this sorrow
Will one day disappear
My illusive happiness
Will come and take over

Dispair is the true culprit
As it gnaws at your soul
It's fierce determination
Makes it a formidable foe

Until you cannot envision
How you will even prevail
And you come to fear that
fate has cast it's betrayel
You know
That I would do
Nearly anything
              for you
Climb the stars
Just one by one
Beyond a universe
               or two
And pull down
The raging sun
and pale moon
               that too
Always give you
All of my love
And all my life
                it's true
You know
That I would do
nearly any thing
                 for you
Alarm goes off
And I get up
Make my Coffee
And pour a cup

Just like yesterday
Just like Tomorrow
Same thing everyday
With pain and sorrow

Until I get laid off
Or until I get fired
And if I am lucky
I'll slave 'til I retire

Every one has a dream
We all set our goals
I'll tell you what mine is
Just putting food on the table
