PEOPLE MADE OF LOVE






soundtrack for piece




People Made of Love


I sit here waiting for the man that I love
The stars are shining in the night skies above
The moon is hanging just over the hill
And all of the world is silent and still.

My love throbs inside me like the beat of a drum
Waiting for him and the moment to come
When my eyes fall upon him and his eyes meet mine
And he kisses my mouth with his own, sweet as wine.

These are moments I cherish
These are moments of bliss
His dark eyes full of passion,
His mouth burning kiss.

I will wait for his shadow to fall upon me
I will wait for his eyes to acknowledge and see
I will wait for his hunger as hungry as mine
To make it's need known, to show me it's sign.

And there in the darkness when the whole world is still
I will give myself to him, I will bend to his will
I will stand there before him with my candle and spark
And we'll love like before and we'll dance in the dark.

He's a phantom and ghost
He's a thief in the night
He's a mythical man
That only lives in my sight.

I conjured him up one night in my mind
And I created him from my own special design
And I loved him to life with my need and my want
And gave him my heart to dwell in and haunt.

And he lives there in shadow, a spectre and myth
The man that I long for and want to be with
Just a thought in my brain that I breathed into form
That took on flesh and blood with no need to be born.

They might say I am mad
And they may rightly think so
But the man that I made out of love
Doesn't know.

He's as real as I am
And I will always be
But what only I know
Is that my lover made me.

He made me of dreams and wishes and wants
And gave me his own heart to dwell in and haunt
And we met in the darkness when the full moon was bright
And we clung to each other and we danced in the night.

And when morning had come with it's bright yellow sun
The night fled away and we two turned to run
For we couldn't exist in the exposure of day
And we held hands there tightly as we faded away.

 But we met soon again
When the white moon was full
And the forces of wanting
With their pleasure and pull.

Drew us back to the yearning
And to love's glowing spark
To take form out of shadow
And to dance in the dark.

I don't know if forever is a word meant for us
We who don't know of breathing or heart beat or pulse
We are creatures of dreams, substantial enough
To take form for short moments
Though we're made out of love.

People made out of love
And magic and dream
Not made like mere mortals
Who are just what they seem.

We are haunting and haunted
And we know of none else
I am created by him
And he sprang from myself.

And now I sit here waiting for the man that I love
Again to appear with the full moon above
The passing of time is a blade that cuts sharp
For people like us that exist in the dark.

We didn't learn how to hold back the time
I just wanted his love and he wanted mine
So we conjured and created but something went wrong
And our moments are magic but they do not last long.

Perhaps one day we'll learn that trick
From magicians who are much more clever
And my love and I can live and love
And dance here in the dark forever........................

SHATTERED







h a t t e r e d



I never knew you were made of glass
Until today.........
I thought you were made of steel and iron
And could take on a lion or a bear
Until today..............

 I never knew what  a rose petal I was
Until today....................
I thought I was the strongest  woman in the world
And could stand and fight with the baddest of the bad
Until today.......................

But today I saw myself being carried away by wind
Unable to stop myself from floating and flying
Not of my own accord but by someone else's
And I was terrified..................
Floating, floating, there on the wind like a rose petal
Trying to hold onto anything I could grab
But there was nothing to grab onto.

And I just kept rushing away carried by that angry wind
All the time watching you standing on a distant shore
Watching me watching you
There were tears in my eyes at the thought that I was losing you
At the thought that I would never see your face again
And yet at the same time, you seemed like a perfect stranger to me
And someone that I didn't even know and never had.

I watched you climb a mountain then that appeared on the shore
And you stood on that mountain as you watched me
Being carried away by the wind,
And you screamed out my name, once, and you jumped
You jumped off the mountain top as I watched helplessly
And you shattered into a hundred million pieces there in the sunlight
And covered the shore with crystal shards of yourself, of your heart
And all that you were and  ever had been.

And suddenly the winds changed direction
And carried me back to that shore
And dropped me there upon the shattered pieces of you
And I lay there, a tiny rose petal, who had loved you with all it's heart
And I wept like a thousand hurricanes
Full of tears for you and all you'd meant to me.

Until one of the shards of you fell on me
And tore me to ribbons
And we were both shattered in that one moment
And both stunned at the realization
That we were not as strong as we thought we were
We were fragile, so fragile
And we were dying.........................
And the world would go on in it's never ending cosmic dance
Without us.

TAKE CARE OF ME




Take Care of Me


Take care of me, baby
I'm your lover girl
I'm the one you that dream of
There in your distant world.

Take care of me, baby
I'm your sweetest thought
I'm the one that brings comfort
When your plans come to naught.

Take care of me, baby
Hold me in your arms
Show me how you want me
Thrill me with your charms.

Take care of me, baby
Make my senses reel
Kiss me like you're dying
And I'm all you want to feel.

Take care of me, boy
And I'll take care of you
Show you all the things you've missed
There beyond the blue.

Take care of me, baby
For I've been a lonely girl
Needing something I couldn't find
Here in this lonely world.

Take care of me, love
Forbid my eyes to cry
Open up your heart to me
And I'll teach you how to fly.

Take care of me, baby
I need a gentle hand
I need a warm and tender touch
From a good hard loving man.

Take care of me, baby
I need you here, right now
And if you've never learned to care
Then I will teach you how.

It's not so hard a job, you see
I do not ask for much
Just a kiss that lasts for hours
Just an electric touch.

Just undress me with your eyes
And clothe me with yourself
Love me like a hurricane
Till you have nothing left.

Then I'll rock you like a baby
And spoil you like a child
Let you dream up new fantasies
And allow you to run wild.

For you and I are much the same
And no one else has ever cared
For us the way we need them to
No one else has dared.

For they saw the wildness in our eyes
That they could never tame
They ran away from passion's fire
That fire that has a name.

And it's your name and it's my name
And it longs to hear the voice
That can call it like it needs to be called
As though it had no choice.

Take care of me, baby
Make your heart my home
I'll be your fire, your one desire
And I'll care for you alone.







I'll Take Care of You

ARE YOU AFRAID?







The Last Butterfly
by
Wodkah





Are You Afraid?


Are you afraid? she asked of me
But I answered not her query
For I was much, so much afraid
But thrilled and much and very.

So long I'd waited for her call
So long I'd dreamed of this
Waiting for her promises
Waiting for her kiss.

And dreamless nights had turned me back
When no dream could be found
And I had wandered far and long
On wearied feet and ground.

Waiting on her special isle
Beyond the field of flowers
I sought her every tear-stained night
And waited many hours.

Until my heart had given up
And I turned myself away
To leave that place, with saddened face
And then I heard her say.........

My love, where goeth thou this night?
Why hast thou lost thy dream?
I've watched thee, lo, these many moons
Hidden by the stream.

I made a path of roses
I sang a lover's song
I lit for you a shining light
I waited all night long.

But you looked in all the wrong places
You heard not my sweetened tune
Your tears put out the candle's glow
And your darkness hid the moon.

Come here, beloved, come to me
Rest your weary head
I'll tell you tales to make you well
Of living things and dead.

See how my dark eyes shine for you?
See how my sweet lips smile?
I am a mystery, this is true
But in me, you'll find no guile.

I feel your heart like a thousand drums
Press against my own
I feel your blood rush through that heart
Like it's racing to get home.

Shh!!! Don't speak, don't say a thing!
There's time enough for words
I only want this sweet communion
That our two hearts have heard.

I know you've searched a long long time
And I have evaded you
But I had to prove unto myself
That you, my love, were true.

I'm not like other maidens
Who tease and employ tears
For if you make me weep, my love
I simply disappear.

And all you'll see is a fading glimpse
Or a shadow of my smile
You may hear a snippet of my song
And in dreams, hold me a while.

But not for long and not always
Will your eyes behold my face
For the shadows will take me if I cry
To a dark and dream-less place.

Until my heart is healed and whole
And my soul is once more well
For up till now, no man has learned
To break this cursed spell.

Are you the One, my sweet, sweet man?
The man to set me free?
For if you're not, turn now and run
And let this maiden be.

For if you're notturn now and run
Amd let this maiden be.......
