Lovesong Poetry

Carry that weight
By Lowanla (me)​

Its not your fault,​

every single person has a choice,​

every single person has a voice,​

you are responsible for your own sins,​

hopefully that takes off some weight off your back,​

You are not responsible for everyone's problems,​

so when somebody said you influenced them to do things,​

remember that they had the choice to go right or left first,​

If you were there or not they would have made up their mind, regardless.​

If I'm the only person who will say this first,​

I don't blame you for anything,​

I take all my own responsibility,​

I would have done things my own way, without you.​

You just gave me a reason to look back at Heaven to pray for you,​

I hated everything before you came into my life,​

I wish I could have told you that before.​

You were the only reason...​

I was redeemed for a moment.​

I don't regret you, no matter what you do..​

For all the good you have done and still do,​

I'm so proud of you.​

Its not your fault,​

Its okay to enjoy your life,​

for time is so little,​

Its okay to smile,​

You owe me nothing,​

you've done something good for me already..​

Just be.​

Its okay to be happy,​

I want to let you know..​

Its okay to live.​

My Ring of Fire

- by Lowanla (me)​

Share the pain,
lift some of the load,
As I walk with you,
Don't let me get cold,
I'll share your yoke,
lift half or all,
of hells agony off of your back,​

I realize what I ask,
but I made you suffer...
I made you wait...
worst of all,
I hurt you...​

I can't bare you suffering,
it hurts me,
I love you,
As I grab your arm and plead,
... please share with me,​

I know I am a fool...
but I can't bare the thought,
that you do this alone..
let me carry something,
that can be my ring,
that will prove to you,
love and marriage is more
than a dreamed fantasy,​

so please..​

If you truly believe
we are bound by love,
then prove it,
let me give you some relief,​

Share the weight,
let me bare some of that pain,
let me take on the passionate hateful flame,
I have to, I need to, I want to.​

please, don't leave me in the cold...
please don't be angry at my request..
I want to help you,
I want to be there for you,
what can I do?
I'll do whatever it takes,
just for you.​

Mask Breakers
by - Lowanla (me)​

The mask you've have to wear for years,
does it hurt your face?
As I slowly pull it off, are you afraid?
I don't want to hurt you,
I just want to get to know you.
I'm tired of the lying games,
you hide behind all the names,
and the faces.​

I don't want the world,
I don't want anything,
but if it must be something,
the whole truth would be nice,​

If I have some sort of honest solidarity,
I think I will be alright with that.
somehow I've always known anyway.
I am a little afraid, but I still feel okay.​

The rumors and things I've heard about you,
but honestly I have not heard your thoughts.
I have not really heard your heart.​

I don't really care what you look like,
for the worlds beauty to me, is actually ugly.
Beauty is a tender heart, a tender dream,
a tender touch, a tender angel.​

I am on your side, but I need to understand you,
I need to know the truth.
Not for me but for you,
I want to know how to be good to you,
I need to know how to treat you,
I know your name, I know your game,
Your name is...L-ove,
and you're alright with me..​

"Learning to Love"
Song Lyrics by: Lowanla (me)​

Spoken:
"I promise be faithful, I promise to be true
If I should fail and shatter you.
then let my lips drain from lovely red,
and turn to the darkest blue..."
Words you dread to hear, but you desire
this kind of fear,
to be loved truly, then eternally
dreaded..."​

Sung:​

"My dear sweetest angel,
wrap your arms around,
comfort your own personal sinner,
listen to my sound,
its like trying to birth spring
into an eternal winter..​

I'm just learning how to love,
I'm just learning how to love,​

Teach me how to love,
I've just started living,
Teach me how to live,
Tell me I'm forgiven,​

I'm just learning how to love,
I'm just learning how to love,​

Not so easy when the 'good side'
puts fear into this mind,
to fear the phantom
the one I've feared my whole life,
Its not so easy when the 'other side',
tries to coax fear and darkness into this mind,
it makes it worse, and they aren't helping
this fearful heart look into your loving eyes.​

I'm just learning how to love,
I'm just learning how to love,​

Teach me how to love,
I've just started living,
Teach me how to live,
Tell me I'm forgiven,​

I'm just learning how to love,
I'm just learning how to love,​

I'm just learning to live with rejection,
I'm just learning how to accept reflection,
I'm just learning how cause its all new to me,
forgive, forgive, darlin, forgive me.​

I'm just learning how to love..."​

​

Hearing - Talking - Yes I - Love you

Set your heart sail on the river
Look around you as you drift downstream
Pouring souls into the ocean
Take account of all you've seen

Hearing
Talking
Love you

One people - Together
Freedom for today
So easy the future
So see the children's way

Love me
Teach me
Know me

One people - Together
Freedom for today
Tomorrow forever
So see the people's way

Many moons cascade one river
They light from side to side
As we cross in close proximity
Like rivers our hearts entwine
How we talk - How we teach our children
How we move - We direct our eyes
All the senses tuned discovery
As and as and when our hearts decide
Be ready now - Be ye circle
Be the central force ye life
As the game extends the cycle
Be ready to move

One heart's for love
One's for giving
Two hearts are better
Than one
I hearing it
I living it
I believe in it
Two hearts are better
Than one
Hearts
Sailing down the river
Hearts
Throwing out a line
Hearts

Sharing out your fortunes
Hearts
In and out of time

Hearing - Talking - Yes I - Love

[Solo]

One heart's for love
One's for giving
Two hearts are better
Than one
I hearing it
I living it
I believe in it
I loving it
Two hearts are better
Than one
Hearts
Sailing down the river
Hearts
Throwing out a line
Hearts

Sharing out your fortunes

Hearts
In and out of time

Who would believe you - Wise men do
Days that we knew it clear with you
You sing the answers question time
Now it you need me let our hearts entwine
Let our hearts entwine

Hearts - Sailing down the river
Hearts - Throwing out a line
I hearing it - I living it - I believe in it - I loving it

Hearts
Two hearts will always be
In and out of time

One heart's for love
One's for giving
Two hearts are better
Than one
I hearing it
I living it
I believe in it
I loving it
Two hearts are better
Than one
Hearts
Sailing down the river
Hearts
Throwing out a line
Hearts

Sharing out your fortunes

Hearts
In and out of time

As we flow down life's rivers
I see the stars glow - One by one
All angels of the magic constellation
Be singing us now
​

That song just reminds me of this song now, this song means a lot to me, because 4 years ago, when I was sitting alone in my car contemplating the the point of life, I found no reason, this song came on the radio at the right moment, its the song that made me want to live. life is beautiful, and love is even more beautiful, I never felt more alive until now..​

"Life Is Beautiful"
Lyrics by: Sixx:A.M.
http://youtu.be/MJDDxHIaaVk​

Spoken: "theres nothin like a trail of blood,
to find your way back home.."

Sung: You can't quit until you try
You can't live until you die
You can't learn to tell the truth
Until you learn to lie​

You can't breathe until you choke
You gotta laugh when you're the joke
There's nothing like a funeral to make you feel alive​

Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful.
Will you swear on your life,
That no one will cry at my funeral?​

I know some things that you don't
I've done things that you won't
There's nothing like a trail of blood to find your way back home​

I was waiting for my hearse
What came next was so much worse
It took a funeral to make me feel alive​

Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful.
Will you swear on your life,
That no one will cry at my funeral?​

Alive...
Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful.
Will you swear on your life,
That no one will cry at my funeral?​

Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful.
Will you swear on your life,
That no one will cry at my funeral?​

Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful.
Will you swear on your life,
That no one will cry at my funeral?​

"Live With Me, And Be My Love"
lyrics by: Annie Lennox

​

Live with me, and be my love,
And we will all the pleasures prove
By hills and valleys, dales and fields,
And all the pleasant pastures yields.

There will we sit upon the rocks,
And see the shepherds feed their flocks,
By shallow rivers, by whose falls
Melodious birds sing madrigals.

There will I make thee a bed of roses,
With a thousand fragrant posies.​

1000 Words
Lyrics by: Jade/Sweetbox
Sweetbox-1000 Words (Lyrics) - YouTube​

I know that your hiding things
Using gentle words to shelter me
Your words were like a dream
But dreams could never fool me
Not that easily​

I acted so distant then
Didn't say goodbye before you left
But I was listening
You'll fight your battles far from me
Far too easily​

"Save your tears cause I'll come back"
I could hear that you whispered as you walked through that door
But still I swore
To hide the pain, when I turn back the pages
Shouting might have been the answer
What if I cried my eyes out and begged you not to depart
But now I'm not afraid to say what's in my heart​

Though a thousand words
Have never been spoken
They'll fly to you
Crossing over the time
And distance holding you, suspended on silver wings
And a thousand words
One thousand confessions
Will cradle you
Making all of the pain you feel seem far away
They'll hold you forever​

The dream isn't over yet
Though I often say I can't forget
I still relive that day
You've been there with me all the way
I still hear you say
"Wait for me, I'll write you letters"​

I could see how you stand with your eyes to the floor
But still I swore
To hide the doubt when I turn back the pages
Anger might have been the answer
What if I'd hung my head and said that I couldn't wait
But now I'm strong enough to know it's not too late​

Cause a thousand words
Call out through the ages
They'll fly to you
Even though we can't see
I know they are reaching you, suspended on silver wings​

Oh a thousand words
One thousand embraces
Will cradle you
Making all of your weary days seem far away​

They'll hold you forever
Oh a thousand words (a thousand words)
Have never been spoken (ohh yeah)
They'll fly to you​

They'll carry you home, (carry you home) and into my arms
Suspended on silver wings (on silver wings!)
And a thousand words (ohh)
Call out through the ages (call through the ages!)
They'll cradle you (ohh yeah)
Make all of the lonely years to lonely days (lonely days)
They'll hold you forever.​

...A Thousand Words..​

"Heart of Hearts"
<3 <3 <3
Lyrics by: Lowanla (me)​

See the terrifying look in our eyes,
and freeing sigh of relief,
I sing a melody to a heart of hearts,
Now I know my reason, believe me.
One for another created,
and I was made just for you.
This world's just for us,
Let me dance with you,
I want to dance with you.​

When the stars fall like our tears,
and the world splits like our hearts,
and the universal law,
binds us by our love,
nothing will matter, but your smiling eyes.​

I'm just enjoying the moment,
there will never be another like us.​

when the stars falls like our tears,
and the world splits like our hearts.
and the universal law,
binds us by our love,
nothing will matter, but your smiling eyes.​

I'm just enjoying the moment,
there will never be another like us.​

Hold me, I fear a kiss-a-brewing forshadowing disaster,
You know I can't live without your heart of hearts.
so leave me sympathetic drops of comfort to help me after.
You don't have to bare your life's burden all alone baby,
I'll carry half of that for you, you need only call for me,
and I'll come running toward your arms,
just so that I can dance with you always.​

when the stars fall like our tears,
and the world splits like our hearts.
and the universal law binds us by our love,
nothing will matter, but your smiling eyes.​

I'm just enjoying this moment,
there will never be another like us.​

when the stars falls like our tears,
and the world splits like our hearts.
and the universal law binds us by our love,
nothing will matter, but your smiling eyes.​

I'm just enjoying this moment,
there will never be another like us.​

Look At The Mirror
Song by: Lowanla (me)​

Doubts are like chains,
Fear like acid rain,
Its so easy to give in to these things,
it depends on who you're listening to,
it depends on who you're looking at.
Who are you listening to?
Who are you looking at?​

Look at this mirror, love
what do you see,
Look at this mirror my love,
can you not see,
Happiness is in love smiling
right back at her good dream (you).​

Hearts are trembling, both yours and mine,
Love is rare and easily torn away,
when you have nothing to love there
is nothing to fear;
but when you have love,
Its like your breathing for the first time,
then you exhale, and struggle for air,​

Look at this mirror, love
what do you see,
Look at this mirror my love,
can you not see,
Happiness is in love smiling
right back at her good dream (you).​

Lock your gaze into mine,
for comfort close your eyes
we'll escape into our dream,
don't let go, hold onto me,
Eventually,
all the bad people will go away,
the fear will shrivel in its decay,
Hold onto me, and open your eyes,
and everything will be okay,​

because,​

Happiness is in love smiling
right back at her good dream.
She wants to be with her good dream (you),
always...​

I love this song! the 90's style will always be my fave style of grunge music... <3

Black Hole Sun
Lyrics by: Soundgarden

In my eyes, indisposed
In disguise as no one knows
Hides the face, lies the snake
The sun in my disgrace
Boiling heat, summer stench
'Neath the black
the sky looks dead
Call my name
through the cream
And I'll hear
you scream again

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come

Stuttering, cold and damp
Steal the warm wind tired friend
Times are gone for honest men
And sometimes far too long for snakes
In my shoes, a walking sleep
And my youth I pray to keep
Heaven send Hell away
No one sings like you anymore

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come

~ Hang my head, drown my fear
Till you all just disappear ~​

This really has nothing to do with anything except the fact that,
I just like the upbeat sound, hehe.
*sings*​

"Stuck In The Middle With You"
Lyrics by: Steelers Wheel
Stealers Wheels - Stuck In The Middle With You - Offical Video + Lyics - YouTube​

Well I don't know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain't right,
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs,
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you.​

Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you,
And I'm wondering what it is I should do,
It's so hard to keep this smile from my face,
Losing control, yeah, I'm all over the place,
Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.​

Well you started out with nothing,
And you're proud that you're a self made man,
And your friends, they all come crawlin,
Slap you on the back and say,
Please.... Please.....​

Trying to make some sense of it all,
But I can see that it makes no sense at all,
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor,
'Cause I don't think that I can take anymore
Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.​

Well you started out with nothing,
And you're proud that you're a self made man,
And your friends, they all come crawlin,
Slap you on the back and say,
Please.... Please.....​

Well I don't know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain't right,
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs,
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you,
Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you,
Stuck in the middle with you.​

I have a sense of peace mixed with chaos, a clear mind and twice the feelings of a lonely and longing heart,
this song comes to mind, plus I love the movie "the Fifth Element"
<3
hopefully these are the correct lyrics, forgive me if not so..​

"The Mad Scene"of "Lucia di Lammermoor"
Lyrics by: Gaetano Donizetti
http://youtu.be/SPf2ANjUbrY​

Il dolce suono
(The sweet sound)​

Mi colpi di sua voce!...Ah, quella voce
(Of his voice I hear!...Ah, that voice)​

M'é qui nel cor discesa!...
(So deeply embedded in my heart!...)​

Edgardo! lo ti son resa,
(Edgar! I'm yours again,)​

Edgardo! Ah! Edgardo mio!
(Edgar! Ah! My Edgar!)​

Si, ti son resa!
(Yes, I'm yours again!)​

Fuggita io son da' toui nemici...(nemici)
(I've escaped from your enemies...(enemies))​

Un gelo mi serpeggia nel sen!

Trema ogni fibra!... Vacilla il pié!
(Every fibre trembles!...My foot's unsteady!)​

Presso la fonte meco t'assidi alquanto...
(Sit with me near the fountain...)​

Si, presso la fonte meco t'assidi
(Yes, sit with me near the fountain)​

Baby Blue
Song Lyrics by: Lowanla (me)​

Isn't it crazy,
the things love will make you do?
Its an insane thing to the
perfectionist, greedy, and cynical,
people can only talk about what they
cannot sacrifice to do,
its all talk, only talk, (they're all talkin')
they won't walk, there is no walkin',
but I don't mind giving you what you need,
and that is love, its what you are really needin'
whats so wrong with that?​

Well Its alright, (alright)
'cause I love my baby blue,
an Its alright, (Alright)
yeah I love that you're my true,
hey world I'm in love with
my baby blue.​

Well Its alright, (alright)
'cause I love my baby blue,
an Its alright, (Alright)
yeah I love that you're my true,
hey world I'm in love with
my baby blue.​

I know that you love me the same way too,
it ain't no thing, its worth everything,
to make you laugh, to make you dance,
to believe in romance, that you
mean something to someone like me,
the same way that I mean to you.​

Well Its alright, (alright)
'cause I love my baby blue,
an Its alright, (Alright)
yeah I love that you're my true,
hey world I'm in love with
my baby blue.​

Well Its alright, (alright)
'cause I love my baby blue,
an Its alright, (Alright)
yeah I love that you're my true,
hey world I'm in love with
my baby blue.​

His hearts-a-blue,
I love my baby blue,
he's my baby blue,
my baby blue,
yeah
I love you.​

~Love will always do~​

Somedays trouble's just a phone call away,
and sometimes the news is just too much to take.
We all need frustration relief, a villain to maim,
but Its no ones fault, these things happen everyday.​

Sometimes we build dreams so high and one day they just die,
and somedays we bury ourselves in our nightmares and cry.
We all need frustration relief, an ear to scream 'why!"
but its no ones fault, these things happen everyday.​

There is always going to be the terrible news,
there is always going to be broken hearts,
there is always going to be chaos,
and we'll always be out of control...​

but there is always the choice to love first,
its the values and the codes of conduct,
that keep us steady through the storm,
we'll grow stronger in love,
when there is no more you or I,
but there is a focus of one love.
our love only grows and intensifies.​

Entitled to make mistakes without keeping count,
just as long as our heart's are broken everytime.
We then realize that our world doesn't have to
end, everytime it starts to rain​

when we know we made it through another day.
We'll be okay, lets smile because
we made it through 'today',
because there will be good days ahead too.
Lets just smile and think of the good
memories, humor, and thoughts, and those
will keep us, they are the things
that will pull
me plus you = "love"
through,​

~"Love" will always do.~​
