Lovesong Poetry

Holding Hands
by: Lowanla (me)

Someone, please tell me.
What is that like?
To hold someone's hands,
For the first time,
to look into their eyes,
to connect smiles gently, so softly.
To touch, burn, connect,
creating a a new sensual song.
With the sensational feeling,
and rhythm of life.

to walk on the grey roads,
dressed in skies tears.
To be able to see, feel, touch, taste, hear.

What is that like?
What is that like to find long
lost love?
What is it like to know someone?

Never say what you don't mean,
don't make a promise that you can never keep.
don't cry, nor complain about a thing.
Never say sacrifice,
if you never intend to take a chance,
or pay the price.
When you are all talk, and no action.
Only merely wasting time,
both yours and mine.

What is that like?

To hold someone's hands,
I do not know..
Will I ever know?
If you can't be brave for loves sake,
them release me,
just let me go.

Set me free, from asking this question,

what is it like to hold hands?​

Time Flies


I was born in '67
The year of Sgt. Pepper
And Are You Experienced?

Into a suburb of heaven
Yeah, it should've been forever
It all seems to make so much sense

But after a while
You realize time flies
And the best thing that you can do
Is take whatever comes to you
'Cause time flies

She said luck is all you make it
You just reach out and take it
Now let's dance a while

She said nothing ever happens
If you don't make it happen
And if you can't laugh then smile

But after a while
You realize time flies
And the best thing that you can do
Is take whatever comes to you
'Cause time flies

And laughing under summer showers
Is still the way I see you now

How does time break down
With no marker, things slow down.
A conference of the strange
And your family is deranged

I could tell you what I'm thinking
While we sit here drinking
But I'm not sure where to start

You see there's something wrong here
I'm sorry if I'm not clear,
Can you stop smoking your cigar?

But after a while
You realize time flies
And the best thing that you can do
Is take whatever comes to you
'Cause time flies

And the coat your wore to Alton Towers
It's still the way I see you now​

Saintkiller
by: Lowanla (me)

you are being deceived
the woman of your past she isn't real,
she was never me,
you are accusing me of things I never did,
of places I have never been,
You are mistreating me for no reason,
I suffer for nothing,

I AM INNOCENT!

the blue orb on the right side of my head
That you can see,
is an assigned demon sent to destroy me,
That has attached itself so comfortably.

I am a wanted criminal of no crime,
they sent you on assignment to silence me,
I am shining too bright,
I am causing too much trouble..
i am tearing down walls and shaking the
very foundation of Hell,
Just because I exist,
just because I am breathing,

the devil hates me,
because God knows my name,
He'll do and say anything to silence me,
because I am somebody special,
I am meant to do great things,
God has a plan for me..

I am a wanted criminal in Hell because,
I am a bright shining light in the dark,
A beacon of Hope to those lost in darkness.
To show them the truth.
It give you Hope...

your boss doesn't want you to know these things,

those memories...
those are lies fixed in your mind,
It is truth,
you are the one who is blind...

Even our dreams can be manipulated,
why not our memories..


​

No matter what I feel
No matter what I see
No matter what you tell me
My father will not let go of me
no matter if I'm persecuted, tortured,
manipulated, and imprisoned.

My father is right there with me,
I am not alone through this trial

i will be free
my daddy loves me
He fights for me
He will never let me go.
he will not let me be destroyed.​

Where are the men of courage in this world?
why do I have to have the
pick of cry babies, and pansies,
I don't want a boyfriend,
I don't need a husband.
I don't need romantic love.
i don't want any of it,
I don't need anyone,
I'd rather be alone!

I don't want a guy who wants me to prove myself,
By destroying my values, and beliefs.
While he sits like a tiny greedy baby.
taking and sucking the life from me,
ashamed of me.

Whatever happened to a backbones?
whatever happened to spines?
I don't want a yellow belly,
i don't need a powerful coward,
Who is all talk,
And says the girl doesn't love him,
and when it comes to revealing,
he runs under a rock and hides.

I don't care what the world thinks of me,
only what God thinks,
Because in the end,
only God's opinion will matter.
Cause it will be you and him alone...

Did I hurt your feelings?
Wanna write a song about it?

gain some sympathizers...
for the gentle girly man,
who don't know how to stand.​

Lock and Key

We carry a sensitive cargo
Below the waterline
Ticking like a time bomb
With a primitive design
Behind the finer feelings
This civilized veneer
The heart of a lonely hunter
Guards a dangerous frontier

The balance can sometimes fail
Strong emotions can tip the scale

Don't want to silence a desperate voice
For the sake of security
No one wants to make a terrible choice
On the price of being free
I don't want to face the killer instinct
Face it in you or me
So we keep it under lock and key.

It's not a matter of mercy
It's not a matter of laws
Plenty of people will kill you
For some fanatical cause
It's not a matter of conscience
A search for probable cause
It's just a matter of instinct
A matter of fatal flaws

No reward for resistance
No assistance, no applause.

Don't want to silence a desperate voice
For the sake of security
No one wants to make a terrible choice
On the price of being free
I don't want to face the killer instinct
Face it in you or me
So we keep it under lock and key.

We don't want to be victims
On that we all agree
So we lock up the killer instinct
And throw away the key.​

spirit Free
by:Lowanla (me)

I am spirit free

I won't live under the threat of fear
even if the threat is real
I am just one powerless, weak, fragile person.
nobody to you,
what do you care
if I am no longer here?

Im prepared for what comes
Even if I am against a thousand,
Its not a sake of pride, just
want to be left alone...

I never wanted any problems,
Just want to quietly move on.
I love this life and I love my family,
I have been fighting for my freedom,
since day one.

I can't live under control,
with you,
I won't survive anyway,
I will die if I am bound a prisoner,
to the dictators flames.

I am not afraid,
I will not be contained,
you want me to stop shouting?
then just leave me and move on.
I just want to be left alone,
I might not have much,
but what I have is a perfect gift from above.

You do not love me anyway,
...it's okay, you can find someone who will be like
you.
I do love you, but it will never be in fear,
this is my life,
I will not live afraid while I am here.

Spirit Free

Hoka hey,
its a good day to die!

as my great grandfather once said...
