CAUSE WE LOVE HIM

HE SENT THEM OUT, SOME TWO BY TWO
AND THEY WENT THOUGH THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO
OF HIS WILL AND HIS WANT, THEY HAD BARELY A CLUE
BUT THEY WERE SENT AND THEY WENT CAUSE THEY LOVED HIM.

THEY WENT THROUGH THE HIGHWAYS AND HEDGES AND THORNS
THEY WERE PELTED WITH STONES AND WERE TAUNTED BY SCORN
THEY WERE RIDICULED, MOCKED FROM THE DUSK TO THE DAWN
BUT THEY WERE SENT AND THEY WENT CAUSE THEY LOVED HIM.

MIRACLES HAPPENED AND THE CROWDS LARGE THEY GREW
HEALINGS AND DELIVERANCES AND SALVATIONS TOO
DEMONS RAN OUT WHEN THEY WERE COMMANDED TO
AND THE DISCIPLES' FAITH GREW CAUSE THEY LOVED HIM.

AND TIME WENT ON AND THE CHURCH GREW IN NUMBER
THERE WAS LITTLE TIME FOR SLACKING AND NO TIME FOR SLUMBER
LOST HUMANITY GOT FOUND AND THE WORLD WEPT AT THE WONDER
AND IT SPREAD ROUND THE EARTH CAUSE THEY LOVED HIM.

INNOCENT MEN, NEWLY FREED, NEWLY BORN
PREACHED IN THE MARKET PLACE TO THE LOW AND FORLORN
AND WALKED CARRYING THE GOSPEL TILL THEIR TIRED FEET WERE WORN
BUT THEY WALKED AND THEY TALKED CAUSE THEY LOVED HIM.

THEN CAME THE DAY WHEN THE LOST ONES REBELLED
AND DECIDED THEY'D RATHER CONTINUE ON INTO HELL
AND THEY SILENCED THE CHRISTIANS AND TOLD THEM NOT TO TELL
BUT THEY COULD NOT BE SILENT CAUSE THEY LOVED HIM.

AND THE WOLVES ROSE UP AND CORNERED THE SHEEP
DISPATCHED THEM AT NOONDAY AND SLAUGHTERED THEM IN THEIR SLEEP
DEVISED TORTURES ANEW TO MAKE THEIR CHILDREN WEEP
BUT THEY DIED IN THEIR JOY CAUSE THEY LOVED HIM.

AND THROUGH THE AGES, TIME'S MARCHED ON
AND CLOSER NOW ARE WE TO HOME
THE SHEEP TO THE SHEEPFOLD, TO THE PLACE WE BELONG
WE MARCH ON AND WE FIGHT CAUSE WE LOVE HIM,

THE WORLD IS FULL OF DANGEROUS SNARES
PITS OF PERSECUTION AND COFFINS OF CARES
THE WOLVES FAR OUTNUMBER THE SHEEP HERE AND THERE
BUT THE SHEEP GIVE THEIR LIVES CAUSE WE LOVE HIM.

NOW HERE AT THE EDGE OF THE END OF ALL THINGS
WE CAN LOOK INTO HEAVEN AND BEHOLD, OUR HEARTS SING
THOUGH THE WOLVES BITE AND BRUISE US, WE WILL GIVE EVERYTHING
AND WE REGRET NOT A THING CAUSE WE LOVE HIM.

When You Come Back Down

Saturday, February 18, 2023

Stranded

Stranded

On an island in an ocean

Like a fish out of the sea

I am stranded like a shipwreck

With no one to rescue me.

In a desert without water

Dying slowly of my thirst

I am empty in my spirit

With my soul about to burst.

'Neath a sun that shines no warmth

And a sky bereft of star

I have no compass here to guide me

For I don't know where you are.

You have left me by the wayside

You have plunged me to despair

You have torn our bonds asunder

Left my love just standing there.

I don't know where I belong now

I can't navigate alone

There's no place to lay my head now

And no heart to call my home.

I am stranded, I am stranded

Robbed of all my joy and mirth

On an island in an ocean

On this sad and sun-less Earth.

Friday Night, Corner Table

Friday Night, Corner Table

Friday night

Corner table

Candlelight,

Wine,

And you.

I'm so nervous

That I'll say something

Do something

Feel something

Wrong.

But

Your eyes

Shine over my face

Like sparkles on the ocean

Like a man on a mission.

Cheers, you say

And I nod,

Raise my glass,

Clink and let the just brought champagne

Glide it's way down my thirsty throat.

Are you happy?

I'm caught off guard

And I blink and laugh a small laugh

As the bubbles tickle my nose

And I feel your fingers on my wrist.

The band starts,

The busboy takes the dishes away

All the while smiling

And staring at me in my sequins

And freshly curled hair.

You signal

For more vineyard nectar

Unless you want something more potent?

You query and I shake my head

No, thank you, I've had more than enough.

I turn my chair

Towards the stage

But you catch my arm

And turn me back to you

Not yet, you say, not just yet.

And we sit there

Watching one another

Wondering in low light

Swimming in questions

Drowning in song.

After three pieces, fast and slow

The maestro stops

Holds up his hand and says

We have a special request

From the gentleman at the corner table.

He wants to know

If the girl of his dreams,

The lovely lady with the pretty curls,

The woman that's sitting there tonight,

Will be his wife?

And I gasp

And put my hand to my mouth

As you slip a ring onto my other. Will you?

You ask with your heart in your eyes. Will you be mine?

But I am speechless.

This was going to be our last date

I had decided. I was tired of waiting.....

Our last date. I had been trying to find the words

But if you never read this poem, I guess

That's something that you'll never know.

4:45 p.m.

the song they were dancing to.....

I See Your Face Before Me by Johnny Hartman....................

It Won't Be Tonight repost

Glen Hansard

It Won't Be Tonight

Standing on the precipice

That steep and craggy cliff that draws my wounded soul

I heard my heart

Urging me to jump......................

Whispered urging that turned to loud command

Loud command that turned to plea

That drowned out reason

And slowly deafened me.

I put my hands upon my ears

Senselessly

Like a blind man wearing glasses

When he has no eyes at all

Senselessly

Trying to block the scream

While begging for the fall.

I didn't want to love you

I didn't want to care............

I didn't want to see that face

That form that's standing there

I didn't want......

I didn't want

I didn't want your charms

Now look at me, a tangled mess

Uncradled by your arms..............

You threw me away

And I came back.............

I left you before you could do it again

You searched for me

And took me home

Tell me why are we lovers

When we cannot be friends???

We can't even be in the same room

Without tearing each other apart

We love and we lust......

When we don't even trust.....

And all we do is break each other's hearts.

This need of you is madness

Why can't I let you be?

You cannot live without me

And you can't live with me.

That bed, it is our battlefield.....

For our wars.... one after the next

We love and cry

We love and we die

For this wild and wounding sex.

And when we've licked our wounds

And mended..............

The heart bruise and the sore...

The passion that cannot be tamed

Soon calls us back for more.

And you hurt me and I hate you

But I love it more than life

Craving every wayward bullet......

Every slicing of the knife.

Then your dark eyes beg me to devour

As you give yourself to me

Lying helpless in your needing

And not wanting to be free.

We've run away so many times.....

Battered victims of love's thumps

And both have stood on that precipice

But no one ever jumps.............

We only turn around and run back to

The next sweet and savage fight

Swearing this mad love has got to end!

And knowing it won't be tonight.

Because Of You

Because of You

There are days when roses seem sweeter

The sun shines brighter

And the roads you walk on

Rise up to meet your feet and glide you along.

There are nights when the moon sings

And silver stars shoot across the celestial canvas

Birds stay up just to croon you lullabies

And the world is a sweet and jubilant place.

I never knew that place before

I never felt like I could touch the heavens

Dance on daylight and run with the rain

Until now, because now, there's you.

All you have to do is smile

All you have to do is reach

All you have to do is be

And Earth becomes Eden.

If I could write you a love song

All the lyrics would be 'you'

If I could paint portraits

All the faces would be yours.

If I could write you a book

All the stories would be unending

If I could inspire you with dreams

All the dreams would come true.

For these are the things

That you've given to me

These are the joys

That now decorate my days.

Because of you

The sun shines brighter

Because of you.

I Feel You

I Feel You

I feel you

You're out there

Wondering

Remembering

Sighing.

Thinking of the days

When I was there

Waiting

At the end of your day.

With a poem,

A song,

A bit of mischief

To make you smile.

You miss that

You miss it like hell

'Cause it was a little bit of heaven

Wasn't it?
