So simply a look can break your heart.

So simply a look can break your heart.

We are one through the darkness breaks light

Creatures kissing in the rain, In the dark

Along the path where the stream is talking.

In the distance there's a gathering far away.

Though no one did appear and make real

They cut the cast, the music, and lights.
This is my line, this is eternal. The

Small voice in the back of my mind
Yesterday reading the lines. In the mirror through

Deep within divinity let's start another secret show.

Part your lips more; I'll swallow your fear

Closing my eyes, kissing them one last time

Calling tears from deep inside, you're so exquisite

You'll love the eyes. Have they always shown

That ghost you love, your ray of light?

So simply a look can break your heart.

Cause now you've paused to break my heart.

Hungry eyes waiting for life flash, to see 

I left here there darkness and found you.

The shadows betrayed you and I that night.

Will I ever come around or you have

A need to see those lights, like rain.

In flames is where I can be found

Cause you know where I'll be found and 

I'll gladly accept the gift I've been granted.

We've never given up before on this stand 

The words remain. I hold to the light.

We run this light take a little life.

So lose your past. It’s in the way.

A thousand lights are burning bright darkened light.

The way things seem to me right now

I thought we pushed toward the same ends.

You've got something to say, so you say

When, remember when we were all so beautiful?

All that is surrounding, somewhere between, a dream.

No fear of death, no fear of life.

This place where I belong, with all erased.

The truth you hide was you all along.

8 words. AFI. Another one of those amazing musical recommends that happen to come from my good friend Travis. Well, almost entirely recommended. If not for him I would never have ventured backwards or forwards into the catalog. Amazing stuff. Musical love affair! Highly recommending. Ah, any new recommends for moi? New is fine… how about old?

Ah, looking back never hurts.  A look in someone's eyes can break your heart a little. Life has odd ways of teaching lessons. You cannot control people’s reactions to what you are doing. Or solve their problems by interfering. No matter how well intended you mean to interfere. My interference in a relatively new friend's life has stirred a bit of interesting up to say the least, especially in places that have nothing to do with the situation but people will make everything about themselves. Haven't known him for long, a matter of months and it... It was all well intended. And that's it people always mean well when stepping in to help but it sometimes it is completely unnecessary. 

Enjoy the music, the living, the loving and the breathing. kisses. m

All of us live in a beautiful world.

All of us live in a beautiful world.

We’ve got nothing to do today but smile.

Keep looking in on the good life. There

Is nothing to lose. Everybody got somebody to

Love. We should feel the touch of love.

If we catch us, where would we land?

All of us live in a beautiful world.

At long last it's crashed, the colossal mass 

Far above our heads under the icy heights.

You've touched this place before. In another time

All the lights on and you are alive.

Do you believe in what you see here?

There doesn't seem to be anybody who agrees.

I'm here to say that I sometimes do.

You're strong in this life and work but

I can help you stand for this dance.

I just wanna sing a song with you.

Baby, are you in or are you out?

Let go. Jump in. What you waiting for?

Leave your things it's all going without you.

It could be here now, it should. How?

All the night you've dreamt my heart again

Where I was so sure you'd follow through

And you'd hide your songs yours with mine.

We’re in another time and I can hear

Everyone. Stop everyone saying different things to you.

Half a million thoughts flow through my mind.

Who'd have thought that you'd dream of a

Land where I dance like the queen that

Comes from a place that's so far away.

It’s a gold tooth curse for a town,

But I don't want you thinking I'm unhappy.

A whole lifetime could have been the end.

The rest of our lives we’ll fare well.

We’re gone but we don't know where and

When you're away, when I am missing you

I hope this song will guide you home.

And have hope we’re gonna find our way

Toward these dreams that take us far away.

8 words. Garden State. Soundtrack. Soundtracks?  interesting. I thought today is a day for celebration so let’s do this differently once again. Why rejoice? To be alive. Sometimes more than an accomplishment in itself; especially when the risk of living is involved. Wouldn’t you agree? I recently heard a story about a fellow who broke his back in three places after being thrown from a horse. I didn't know the guy but his story made me cry. He can't hold his two children, babes of 1 and 2 and this is quite heartbreaking. Then I read another crazy story about a man who broke his neck and that is some pretty scary business. But the best part is that both of those is that the people were still alive and there with their families. Recently I've spent sometime in the hospital with a sick loved one and this was heartbreaking. There are times when tears come for those in pain in our lives but sometimes standing by the side of a loved one and supporting their discomfort is far better than tears. Love and support isn’t selfish. It is given unconditionally and without need for reciprocation to family and friends in your life. Above all it is meant to be given selflessly. Anyway about the piece… A thought passed through my head after completing a double album  and that inspiration happened to be “why not soundtracks?”  I kept thinking that perhaps a soundtrack would provide an interesting unified theme among songs. Indeed? I don’t know that answer any clearer than I did then but here is this piece. Enjoy the wonder of love in all forms, the beautiful and exquisite experience of living and by all means please keep breathing. kisses, m.

There are places to come from and go.

There are places to come from and go.

Elusive dreams, vague desires fanned to fiery needs.

We burned brightly clinging like fire to fuel.

We once loved together and floodlit that time.

That was a dream we had some time

                                                                                                                             

When you felt my fire it was precious.

Watching your hair and the clouds and stars.

Feel so wild you could break somebody's heart.

Dreams like that are very hard to share.

Sometimes I blink 'cause I think I see

You. And can't help how you feel tonight.

Night after night lie awake and dream of

The wild things running fast in the dark.

Moon in the mirror, a reflection of kisses.

Birds in spring only lovers hear them sing

Dreaming of the pleasure they’re going to have.

Love is not a game played with inconsistency.
Cause once comes love nothing can be done.

Feeling too foolish and strange to say words

Everyday. Your love puts on a new face

When say you don't know what you’re doing.

Now believe that love is here to stay.

I don't like quiet I wish I were

Changing as the days come down to you.

Sometimes change comes at you with only chaos.

I miss your touch and lips so much

Giving me such pleasure. Bringing me such pain.

I miss the kisses, I miss the bites.

I can feel your fingers feeling my face.

Don’t know what you've got till it's gone

I've looked at love from both sides now.

You’ve gotta give up a piece of soul
for the truth. Let the fight go out.

Whisper out of time before it then comes.

You say that we can start anew. You’re

Searching my soul because this must be fate.

There'll be new dreams, better dreams and plenty.

There are places to come from and go.

Till you get there you never really know.

8 words. Joni Mitchell. The other day somebody tells me they’ve never heard of Joni and I am still absolutely speechless. Have you listened to Joni Mitchell? Well, if you’ve never heard of Joni Mitchell, it’s time you do yourself some musical homework and have a listen. She happens to be one of the most amazing and brilliant singer-songwriters EVER. It’s mandatory listening for any true audiophile. Anyway… Enjoy it all! Nothing holds the key to your happiness… you do. Have to do what you want as long as it harms no one else. No one wants to see you come to any harm; if they do… you are so much better than them already. Enjoy the things that are unexpected and be happy. kisses. m.

Moon in the mirror

Stay in touch

Blue on blue

Good Friends

And the world just screams and falls apart.

And the world just screams and falls apart.

The world it goes and awaits the day. 

I'm calling softly crawl across towards your window

Wanting warm and moving bends towards soothing touch.

Always half awake and sleeping on my feet

Your beauty is seeping out through the clothes

Please stay awhile and I’ll fill your heart.

Your heart hanging open all over the sheets.

I am listening to hear where you are.

There is music that sounds from the street.

There’s a taste in this life more inviting.

I love the way your kiss is heavenly.

I'm not afraid of love in this daydream. 

It's you and me and life has begun. 

You were needing me. When you believed all

I wanted was to be in your body,

In your mouth and say I love you.

To sing, say my dream has come and

In a blink of an eye you’re gone.

Oh ah, but why are they weeping now?

As empty anger falls out from their eyes

Someone is waiting to swallow all of you.

And the world just screams and falls apart.

Up and over we go, mouths open wide

Placing fingers through the notches in your spine.

The weight is waiting off fell the world.

I’m so empty please, please don't leave me.

Chasing the only meaningful memory you had left.

And when I put my arms around you,
It hurts you everyday. I lay naked so

We’d learn what each other's bodies were for.

Run my lips across your fingers till you

Find you are beautiful and trembling with life.

Like the feeling you get when you realize

That your love was all left within me.

And now you know you'll never be afraid.

In your heart there's a spark that screams.

Struggling to find the secret songs you keep.

Tear out your heart; send me your secrets.

Neutral Milk Hotel. A new recommend from a fellow who loves this band and an interesting revisit from my past. He tells me that there is so much emotion in the song from this guy's voice and that is so true. I Love, Love, Love the amazing singers that pour every ounce of their soul into the song. Emotional connection to the craft is amazing! Needless to say… I’m recommending. Old is new. On tour in select cities. Check it out. If you’ve never heard… why not try something new? Enjoy. kisses. m.

Where You'll Find Me Now

We're all alone on the stage tonight.

We're all alone on the stage tonight.

On top the world, looking over the edge

We're all alone on the stage tonight and

We let it in. We give it out.

We know all our lines so well, ah-ha.

You don't hear what I’m saying, do you?

It's been such a long week. They’re crying.

Just being alive can really hurt; these moments
Are filling up with the shivers and quivers.

You could just see them screaming and weeping?

Do you want to feel how it feels?

For I know there's something you must tell. 

Tell me what song you are singing and

Tell me all the things that you need.

You don't need words just one kiss, then

Feel your body relax giving me good lines.

We’re always waiting, and I feel you hesitate.

Eventually, you'll fall and then down you'll go.

I'm giving all in a moment or two.

Whatever happens what really matters? All we've got

Flows around all that comes in our way.

I know that something good is gonna happen.

I don't know what. Can't run from it. 

Been told when I get older, I'll understand.

Give me that kiss, give me your hand.

I'm coming back love. My only one dream

Running in the night hiding in the dark

Walking down the street, brushing arms, moonlight dancing.

Let it take over, set your spirit dancing.

You can be thrilled you can be free.

You can dance the dream. With your body

You're making rain, and you're just in reach.

Reach out; touch the past and the future.

When you walked up before the music started, 

You talked me into the game of chance.

Don't know why I give in? I do. 

Here I go. Don’t let go. Hold me.

You give me... Please don't let me go.

Music is all you got in this life.

8 words. Kate Bush. Been chain listening to Kate today. Lovely. One of my favorite voices. I happen to tell someone that there are no words in the human language yet created to describe this lady’s voice. As there are not. Her music is one of my love affairs in this life. Enjoy if you’ve never heard Kate Bush. She is…. Will change your life. Especially more so if you are a musician or singer, then you know what I mean. Enjoy. Kisses.  m.

The Poetry of 8 Words: If life’s a game, true love’s a trophy

If life’s a game, true love’s a trophy

Woke up this morning and it wasn’t heaven.

Won't have a soul to wake up while

I wonder if there's hearts that will deliver.

Speaking in metaphors for something in your heart

I’m waiting for the present dream to last.

Why can't I sleep with my eyes open?

There's no reason my mind should be still.

Is every kind of love an imaginary love?

Why does it always have to be chaos?

Quiet. I don't want to know the answers.

Got a dream and that's all I need.

You gave me your love in one day

And with your heart you will never lose.

Tell me, if will you settle for love.

Saw what I'm looking for in your eyes

Where beauty is existence. You turn me on

Love, longer than day making my heart sing.

All of my life days turn into nights.

It's only when you're outside that you notice

From where you are, to where I am.

When you were here I missed you. Now 

You just sittin there dreamin' of instant pleasure.

I’ll hold you the way you should be.

Rest and forget yourself in my arms tonight.

And wouldn't it be lovely? Life is Beautiful. 

There'll be rainbows and we will finally know.

What I believe in I know is true

There'll come a time, now don't forget it 

You’ll believe in love, what’s supposed to be.

And my love for you will drive your

Need to go. When I'm leaving for Paris

Please be there. Don't know where I’ll fall.

Won't you walk me through it all, darling?

I don't know what I'm doing, I'm saying

Will I walk away from love knowing nothing?

Do I guess to have no more fears?

If life’s a game, true love’s a trophy.

Keep in the game maintaining mystique facing forward.

8 words. Rufus Wainwright. Rufus was an amazing music recommend  a very very long time ago and he’s always stayed close to me. Needless to say, this man’s music is an all time love affair for moi. It’s actually inspired a few pieces; “Between My Legs” to name one. Anyway, this is for anyone who loves Rufus Wainwright as much as I do. Enjoy. kisses. m.
