If I Show You (Will You be Mine)

If I show you a good time
Will you be mine?
Will you dine with me in fine wine?
Will you dine for all of mankind?
Dine on this and dine on that
Dine with wine on your mind

If I show you a place to shine
Will you be mine?
Will you go blind or see the signs?
Will you go blind for all of mankind?
Blinded by hate and blinded by fate
Blinded in your mind

If I show you unseen colours
Will you be mine?
Will you paint a picture in your mind?
Will you paint it for all of mankind?
Picture this or picture that
Picture my mind

If I show you something divine
Will you be mine?
Will you pray for a holier shrine?
Will you pray for all of mankind?
Pray for this or pray for that
Just dont pray for my mind

Love: A Definition

What is love But the absence of hate. An echoing void Into which we create What is love But a pardon of sin. A feeble excuse For those of our kin What is love Is it lust, is it more.

What Is Life?

What is life without breath. Without the heart that beats in our chest, Without the blood that runs through our veins, What is life. I do exclaim. What is life if not to love.

Mystery

I wish life could remain just a mystery. Not planned out to become just history. When did the time of the unknown become old. To remain in books with pages to unfold. Where did all of that magic go.

Mirror, Mirror

Mirror, mirror on the wall, Who's the fairest of them all. Who's the ugliest, the worst, Who is treasured, Who is cursed. Mirror, mirror on the wall, Who will rise and who will fall.

Stars

For those that don't like darkness.. For those that don't like night... For those that fear what's in it. For those that don't like the sight.

A Song, Long Ago

So this song you sung so softly, Has created cities and cars, constructed cathedrals and cinemas, A hoard of humanity, holy and humbled, Beneath you.

Time passes with the running stream, Fleeting like most hopes and dreams, Like the sound of the ticking clock, Pain flies on with the soaring flock, And the flow of life continues on, Into the night...
