Into what may become of tomorrow

The voices within that would cause me to sway

Lead me astray

Do ever so ring further hollow

*

The faces as yet that remain still unmet

Await opportunity's rise

Look into the days when will come then what may

So sweeter the day

When will see then the wiser my eyes

*

That the past stay the past, what has passed let it be

What can't change let it rest now in peace

For while in my mind it does longer remain

My now it constrain

So then here let it be now released

But your problems are solely now yours

I won't carry you further

Won't hold anymore

Your burdens, your baggage

I carried before

*

No, I cannot keep on seeing

The masks I once thought to be you

I see now who you are

From a clear point of view

And no more to deny

What I know to be true

*

No, I'll no longer be playing

The roles you enlisted me for

Your hero, your saviour

Your endless support

Your lies, your excuses

I no longer endorse

*

So go, walk the path you were born to

Your happiness yours to pursue

Pick up your own pieces

We're over and through

Now I live for me

You for you

Or natural desire?

Just watching you frolic

And dance like a fire

Naked as sunlight

At home on the sand

Waves reach toward you

And softly pull back

Surge again, swell

An unquenchable thirst

A hunger, a spark

A burgeoning lust

The visions in mind

Set alight by my eye

The bless'ed sand falling

The curve of your thigh

Wind kiss and tickle

The skin seem to ripple

Warm salt dry and hold

To the bulge of a nipple

Bouncing breast

Tender flesh

Round nave in my gaze

Slow droning of waves

Low moaning

I crave

A siren scream call

Tight the skin in the thrall

Unseam me

Release me

Untether me all

Pulsing thrill

Harder still

Loss of will

Let it spill

For I am not a God

Half the measure of Pan

Leopold Bloom

While sat

Spat in his hand

For in all

After all

I am none

But a man

It lay you bare

Let penetrate, obliterate

Each shadow hiding there

The unclenched heart no danger face

But secrets hid beware

The cleansing rays evaporate

All falsehood swiftly be erased

The mask to break

In Heaven's graceful glare

Mine is the call I heed

Mine is the all that e'er could I want

Mine is the all that I need

*

I am the journeyman traveller

The road rises up to my feet

I am the one to rise grateful each day

I am the all that I seek

And swear it never upon me

Will ever come again once more

Whatever it took, whoever bore

That load for me upon their back

I'll pass it on until they crack

And watch untroubled, silent be

I'll do again was done to me

That never more I'll ever fear

The silent sword behind my ear

Ever set unseen my throat to spill

To stay alive, I swear I will

In the moments of our death

Every fleeting word within

As we pass unto the Next

The worlds beyond the world we know

Or thought we knew at best

Each one a small step onward

Each one a passing breath

Your own to deride or despise

Delusions of greatness belittle true

goodness

Imagined through other folks' eyes

*

Seek no reward but your own to attain

Satisfaction much deeper than pride

Fleeting it is and still more to maintain

The life behind mask and disguise

That has brought me as far as he could

Realising he was but temporary

Must release me now ever for good

*

He kept me alive through worst of my times

Kept me putting one foot after other

In deepest delusion the only way fore

My soul in a self induced coma

*

The one who took over, my battles engaged

Who long carried me from where I fell

Can no longer serve now his role is outplayed

I have faced every demon in Hell

And still

I emerged from the fires of Hell

Is life unlived, untouched

To never weep like Winter's rain

Abandon pain and pleasure's game

And never feel much

*

By, oh, to numb my broken heart

And never feel like this

I'd sell the world to touch the stars

And never live to see what harm

Was caused for just one kiss

**

I'd sell my soul for that one kiss

A moment's bliss, happiness

A simple pleasure so divine

To feel your beauty on mine

*

Your lips quiver, nervous smile

Makes me shiver, makes me high

A story known but never told

For just one kiss I'd sell my soul

Is it such that a man should e'er take to the sky

Borne on wings made of wax like a bird, such as bee

Why stop now when so soon reach immortality?

*

I have tamed all that walk with my wit under yoke

I have trapped and subdued, the environment broke

Left my mark from the skies to the depths of the sea

There were none ever so great as me

*

Now the Sun in the sky over all brighter burns

The machines I did build now unceasingly learn

Every secret that never was our lot to know

Each a feather in my wing to grow

*

With no awe in me but for the whim of the wise

Like a bird fallen dead from once habitable skies

Without wind my illusions seem set to becalm

I will drown in the depth of the oceans I harm

*

Let my body drop from foul'ed air to the sea

Let the currents pull down what remains then of me

That my carcass be feed for the shark to the prawn

That one day all that's lost be reborn

The problems of re-al-i-ty

Befriend or amend old relationships broke

'Tis only e'er temporary

*

The potion of passion does none for the soul

The heart that lies hidden in wait

Its wanting and yearning will never be filled

From a half empty cup

Held by hands that but shake

*

The face that despise

The sight of its own eyes

The look of its long drawn down frown

Seek a reflection in silly illusion

Narcissus' foolishness in which to drown

*

Old Dionysius romanticises

Food turned to foul on the vine

Give me a grape, I'll no longer partake

To diminish my lifeblood with wine

Mi pena pesa a mi

Burn my burden

Light my soul

From dark deliver me

*

Free me from all Earthly bonds

Until my spirit soar

Dejeme huir

De mi monton

Con los condores volar

What treasure sweet belie

The painful lessons 'mongst them lay

That I may wake

That I may fight

The dark that cross my way

*

Gentle wind, be at my back

The Sun above my head

The cloud embrace, bless me with shade

That I may walk

That I may rise

The mount that rise ahead

*

Surrender, yet give never up

The dream that whisper still

Through falsest thought that babble on

That calm regain

That peace remain

Unearth the primal will

I'll return you a poem in a word unwrote

Play me a tune with a silent note

'Til we float, til we float, til we float

*

Show me the light of your celestine eye

That would shine with the light of the moon in the sky

Let me gaze in a daze with a simper and a sigh

Til we fly, til we fly, til we fly

*

I watch you eat cake with a fork, with a fork!

While we sit in the park by the river and we talk

While the rain all around us, let it fall, let it fall

Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall

*

When the day is nearly done, the sky getting dark

Speak of synchronicity, psychology and art

While we wander underneath all the stars, under stars

Counting every twinkle from afar

*

Come a little closer walking arm in arm

I will ever be bespelled by your charms, by your charms

Maybe there's a place for me in your heart, in your heart

Surely something's starting in your heart

*

Not another lovely such as you, such as you

Noneasmuch as beautiful as you, yeah it's true

Nonesoever needed any more than us two

Never one as wonderful as you

In a word I'd forgot

An identity long despised

Unheard but recognised

Deep in my vein

-

Whispering wind,

Let me be born again

*

For though I did run

Both in fear and alarm

With humility I return

Back to my family

Upon whom I turned my back

-

Comfort me in your arms

No more myself harm

*

And though I may tremble

Forgive me my scorn

Revisit bad memories hid

Lessons unlearned

Let me begin again

-

The comfort I spurned

Old contracts burned

Silence fill my ears

Every fibre pulse

Blood turn to tears

Ripples on a silent pond

Soft and final breath

Gentle, relenting

Whispered moment of my death

Yet fills my ears with music sweet

Throughout the endless pass of night

Instills my dreams in lyric light

*

My heart, in turn, in cascades ring

In countless waves within each beat

That through my veins do resonate

Precipitate and satiate

Who tremble at the beating sound

Of thunderous hoofbeats in the rain

I thrash upon the sodden ground

*

Their whims I crush, humiliate

And scatter with each Deathly bound

Who fancy they might stand to taste

What's only mine, to take the mount

*

My tangled hair and matted beard

My brutish tang make quake

Enough to turn a man to boy

Poor pity in my wake

*

Deep fire I fill in nymphs at will

Those pretty morsels, moist and round

As I their thirsts do lust'ly slake

In tremors I do leave them, ploughed

*

I, the God of Earth's delights

Protector by My hand

Bereft of grace and gratitude

Cower before Me, I am Pan!

Than alone, lost and lonely

In a half ars'ed thing with a ring.

It's better to be me and be free

From within, than within

Somesuch silly other thing.

*

I wouldn't want to stay in that way

Another day, another year

Of simply slowly growing old.

I'm better company in the night

Than it might be to have another

Lying next to me, stony cold.

*

Gotta understand it's my plan

Be a man, guard myself

Keep my health, it's my wealth.

And when I find the woman who is

Finding the divine within

We're gonna take each other off the shelf.
