Hero of Love Lyrics:by live
I caught a glimpse of Heaven last night
To the left of your body, to the right of your mind
Lost in a riddle I was helpless to understand
I went to a healer, the healer held my hand
She said, "All of these things are written in the sand behind me"
Oh, I dream about you every night, I call your name
The whole world thinks that I am insane, here I come again, yeah
I caught a glimpse of Heaven last night
Through a crack in the mirror that fractalized the light
A saint is a sinner, a sinner is a saint
It's all just the cloaks we hide behind, a cartoon in the brain
And I say, "All of these things are written in the sand behind me"
Oh, I dream about you every night, I call your name
The whole world thinks that I am insane, here I come again
hero of love takin' you higher
I wanna be your hero of love
Is it getting better, is it getting brighter
I wanna be your hero, your hero of love, of love, of love
I caught a glimpse of Heaven last night
Was that a number ninety six or was it a sixty nine
Oh, I was lost in a riddle I was helpless to understand
I went to a lover, this lover held my hand
She said, "All of these things are just written in the sand behind me"
Oh, I dream about you every night, I call your name
The whole world thinks that I am insane, here I come again
hero of love takin' you higher
I wanna be your hero of love
Is it getting better, ooh, is it getting brighter, brighter, brighter
I wanna be your hero, your hero of love, of love, of love
I wanna be be your hero of love, I wanna be be your hero of love
I got to be your hero of love, I wanna be be your hero of love
I wanna move mountains, I wanna move the devil
I wanna move the President, on your knees, everybody, everybody
I wanna be be your hero of love
I wanna be be your hero, oh, yeah

Girl Interrupted:
"You know, there's too many buttons in the world. There's too many buttons and they're just - there's way too many just begging to be pressed, they're just begging to be pressed, you know? They're just - they're just begging to be pressed! And it makes me wonder, it really makes me fucking wonder, why doesn't anyone ever press mine? Why am I so neglected? Why doesn't anyone reach in and rip out the truth and tell me that I'm a fucking whore, or that my parents wish I were dead?"
"Sometimes the only way to stay sane is to go a little crazy."

Acrobat
Don't believe what you hear, don't believe what you see
If you just close your eyes you can feel the enemy.
When I first met you girl, you had fire in your soul.
What happened t'your face of melting snow
Now it looks like this!
And you can swallow or you can spit
You can throw it up, or choke on it
And you can dream, so dream out loud
You know that your time is coming round
So don't let the bastards grind you down.
No, nothing makes sense, nothing seems to fit.
I know you'd hit out if you only knew who to hit.
And I'd join the movement
If there was one I could believe in
Yeah, I'd break bread and wine
If there was a church I could receive in.
'Cause I need it now.
To take the cup
To fill it up, to drink it slow.
I can't let you go.
And I must be an acrobat
To talk like this and act like that.
And you can dream, so dream out loud
And don't let the bastards grind you down.
What are we going to do now it's all been said?
No new ideas in the house, and every book's been read.
And I must be an acrobat
To talk like this and act like that.
And you can dream, so dream out loud
And you can find your own way out.
And you can build, and I can will
And you can call, I can't wait until
You can stash and you can seize
In dreams begin responsibilities
And I can love, and I can love
And I know that the tide is turning 'round
So don't let the bastards grind you down.
one of my faves.. Hejira, Joni Mitchell
I'm traveling in some vehicle
I'm sitting in some cafe
A defector from the petty wars
That shell shock love away
There's comfort in melancholy
When there's no need to explain
It's just as natural as the weather
In this moody sky today
In our possessive coupling
So much could not be expressed
So now I'm returning to myself
These things that you and I suppressed
I see something of myself in everyone
Just at this moment of the world
As snow gathers like bolts of lace
Waltzing on a ballroom girl
You know it never has been easy
Whether you do or you do not resign
Whether you travel the breadth of extremities
Or stick to some straighter line
Now here's a man and a woman sitting on a rock
They're either going to thaw out or freeze
Listen...
Strains of Benny Goodman
Coming thru' the snow and the pinewood trees
I'm porous with travel fever
But you know I'm so glad to be on my own
Still somehow the slightest touch of a stranger
Can set up trembling in my bones
I know - no one's going to show me everything
We all come and go unknown
Each so deep and superficial
Between the forceps and the stone
Well I looked at the granite markers
Those tribute to finality - to eternity
And then I looked at myself here
Chicken scratching for my immortality
In the church they light the candles
And the wax rolls down like tears
There's the hope and the hopelessness
I've witnessed thirty years
We're only particles of change I know, I know
Orbiting around the sun
But how can I have that point of view
When I'm always bound and tied to someone
White flags of winter chimneys
Waving truce against the moon
In the mirrors of a modern bank
>From the window of a hotel room
I'm traveling in some vehicle
I'm sitting in some cafe
A defector from the petty wars
Until love sucks me back that way
Women's Lib? Poor little things. They always look so unhappy. Have you noticed how bitter their faces are?
Joan Crawford
Recently I heard a 'wise guy' story that I had a party at my home for twenty-five men. It's an interesting story, but I don't know twenty-five men I'd want to invite to a party.

:inlove:i carry your heart with me by E. E. Cummings
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart):rose:
Brown Penny by William Butler Yeats
I whispered, 'I am too young,'
And then, 'I am old enough';
Wherefore I threw a penny
To find out if I might love.
'Go and love, go and love, young man,
If the lady be young and fair.'
Ah, penny, brown penny, brown penny,
I am looped in the loops of her hair.
O love is the crooked thing,
There is nobody wise enough
To find out all that is in it,
For he would be thinking of love
Till the stars had run away
And the shadows eaten the moon.
Ah, penny, brown penny, brown penny,
One cannot begin it too soon.
DARKNESS
In darkness
Where my dreams are all too clear
Darkness, darkness
Filled with all the sounds of fear
I hear voices (don't turn out the light)
Calling faraway
I see shadows (don't turn out the light)
Moving, changing shape
And the clock stops
As darkness closes in
I hesitate but it's too late
I scream and scream again
I hear colours black and red
I see sounds that fill my head
I'll never read those books again
In darkness
Where my dreams are all too clear
Darkness, darkness
Filled with all the sounds of fear
I hear voices (don't turn out the light)
Calling faraway
I see shadows (don't turn out the light)
Moving, changing shape
Don't turn out the light (don't turn out the light)
Or I'll go over the edge
Don't turn out the light (don't turn out the light)
Or I'll go over the edge
In darkness
Where my dreams are all too clear
Darkness, darkness
Filled with all the sounds of fear
I hear voices (don't turn out the light)
Calling faraway
I see shadows (don't turn out the light)
Moving, changing shape
I hear voices (don't turn out the light)
Calling faraway
I see shadows (don't turn out the light)
Moving, changing shape

How dare the Premier ignore my invitations?
He'll have to go
So, too, the bunch he luncheons with
It's second on my list of things to do
At the top, I'm stopping by
Your place of work and acting like
I haven't dreamed of you and I
And marriage in an orange grove
You are the only thing in any room you're ever in
I'm stubborn, selfish and too old.
I sat you down and told you how
the truest love that's ever found
Is for oneself
You pulled apart my theory
With a weary and disinterested sigh
So yes I guess I'm asking you
To back a horse that's good for glue
And nothing else
But find a man that's truer than,
Find a man that needs you more than I
Sit with me a while
And let me listen to you talk about
your dreams and your obsessions
I'll be quiet and confessional
The violets explode inside me
when I meet your eyes
Then I'm spinning and I'm diving
Like a cloud of starlings
Darling is this love?

If I ventured in the slipstream
Between the viaducts of your dream
Where immobile steel rims crack
And the ditch in the back roads stop
Could you find me?
Would you kiss-a my eyes?
To lay me down
In silence easy
To be born again
To be born again
From the far side of the ocean
If I put the wheels in motion
And I stand with my arms behind me
And Im pushin on the door
Could you find me?
Would you kiss-a my eyes?
To lay me down
In silence easy
To be born again
To be born again
There you go
Standin with the look of avarice
Talkin to huddie ledbetter
Showin pictures on the wall
Whisperin in the hall
And pointin a finger at me
There you go, there you go
Standin in the sun darlin
With your arms behind you
And your eyes before
There you go
Takin good care of your boy
Seein that he's got clean clothes
Puttin on his little red shoes
I see you know he's got clean clothes
A-puttin on his little red shoes
A-pointin a finger at me
And here I am
Standing in your sad arrest
Trying to do my very best
Lookin straight at you
Comin through, darlin
Yeah, yeah, yeah
If I ventured in the slipstream
Between the viaducts of your dreams
Where immobile steel rims crack
And the ditch in the back roads stop
Could you find me
Would you kiss-a my eyes
Lay me down
In silence easy
To be born again
To be born again
To be born again
In another world
In another world
In another time
Got a home on high
Aint nothing but a stranger in this world
Im nothing but a stranger in this world
I got a home on high
In another land
So far away
So far away
Way up in the heaven
Way up in the heaven
Way up in the heaven
Way up in the heaven
In another time
In another place
In another time
In another place
Way up in the heaven
Way up in the heaven
We are goin up to heaven
We are goin to heaven
In another time
In another place
In another time
In another place
In another face
Chasing Cars lyrics
We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
We don't need
Anything
Or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me and just forget the world?
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
they're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

****A Special World****
A special world for you and me
A special bond one cannot see
It wraps us up in its cocoon
And holds us fiercely in its womb.
Its fingers spread like fine spun gold
Gently nestling us to the fold
Like silken thread it holds us fast
Bonds like this are meant to last.
And though at times a thread may break
A new one forms in its wake
To bind us closer and keep us strong
In a special world, where we belong.

****An Entrapment****
My love, I have tried with all my being
to grasp a form comparable to thine own,
but nothing seems worthy;
I know now why Shakespeare could not
compare his love to a summer’s day.
It would be a crime to denounce the beauty
of such a creature as thee,
to simply cast away the precision
God had placed in forging you.
Each facet of your being
whether it physical or spiritual
is an ensnarement
from which there is no release.
But I do not wish release.
I wish to stay entrapped forever.
With you for all eternity.
Our hearts, always as one.
- Anthony Kolos -
************************************
If I could have just one wish,
I would wish to wake up everyday
to the sound of your breath on my neck,
the warmth of your lips on my cheek,
the touch of your fingers on my skin,
and the feel of your heart beating with mine...
Knowing that I could never find that feeling
with anyone other than you.

Bride and Groom Lie Hidden for Three Days - Ted Hughes
She gives him his eyes, she found them
Among some rubble, among some beetles
He gives her her skin
He just seemed to pull it down out of the air and lay it over her
She weeps with fearfulness and astonishment
She has found his hands for him, and fitted them freshly at the wrists
They are amazed at themselves, they go feeling all over her
He has assembled her spine, he cleaned each piece carefully
And sets them in perfect order
A superhuman puzzle but he is inspired
She leans back twisting this way and that, using it and laughing
Incredulous
Now she has brought his feet, she is connecting them
So that his whole body lights up
And he has fashioned her new hips
With all fittings complete and with newly wound coils, all shiningly oiled
He is polishing every part, he himself can hardly believe it
They keep taking each other to the sun, they find they can easily
To test each new thing at each new step
And now she smoothes over him the plates of his skull
So that the joints are invisible
And now he connects her throat, her breasts and the pit of her stomach
With a single wire
She gives him his teeth, tying the the roots to the centrepin of his body
He sets the little circlets on her fingertips
She stiches his body here and there with steely purple silk
He oils the delicate cogs of her mouth
She inlays with deep cut scrolls the nape of his neck
He sinks into place the inside of her thighs
So, gasping with joy, with cries of wonderment
Like two gods of mud
Sprawling in the dirt, but with infinite care
They bring each other to perfection.
El Desdichado - Gerard De Nerval (1808-1855)
Je suis le Ténébreux, le Veuf, l'Inconsolé,
I am the dark one, the widower, the incosolable,
Le Prince d'Aquitaine à la Tour abolie.
the Prince of Aquitaine in his ruined tower.
Ma seule Etoile est morte, et mon luth constellé
My only star is dead, and my jewelled lute
Porte le Soleil noir de la Mélancolie.
bears only the blackened sun of Melancholia.
Dans la nuit du Tombeau, Toi qui m'as consolé,
Rends-moi le Pausilippe et la mer d'Italie,
La fleur qui plaisait tant à mon coeur désolé,
Et la treille où le Pampre à la Rose s'allie.
Suis-je Amour ou Phébus ?... Lusignan ou Biron ?
Mon front est rouge encor du baiser de la Reine,
My forehead is yet red from the kiss of the Queen,
J'ai rêvé dans la Grotte où nage la sirène...
I have swum in the grotto where the siren sings...
Et j'ai deux fois vainqueur traversé l'Achéron,
And I have twice crossed the Acheron victorious,
Modulant tour à tour sur la lyre d'Orphée
transfigured in turns on the lyre of Orpheus
Les soupirs de la Sainte et les cris de la Fée.

Elbow, One Day Like This.
Drinking in the morning sun
Blinking in the morning sun
Shaking off the heavy one
Heavy like a loaded gun
What made me behave that way?
Using words I never say
I can only think it must be love
Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day
Someone tell me how I feel
It's silly wrong but vivid right
Oh, kiss me like the final meal
Yeah, kiss me like we die tonight
Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see the light
Yeah, lying with me half-awake
Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day
When my face is chamois-creased
If you think I'll wink, I did
Laugh politely at repeats
Yeah, kiss me when my lips are thin
Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see you like
Yeah, lying with me half-awake
Stumbling over what to say
Well, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day
So throw those curtains wide!
One day like this a year'd see me right!
CHANCE MEETINGS
by: Conrad Aiken (1889-1973)
In the mazes of loitering people, the watchful and furtive,
The shadows of tree-trunks and shadows of leaves,
In the drowse of the sunlight, among the low voices,
I suddenly face you,
Your dark eyes return for a space from her who is with you,
They shine into mine with a sunlit desire,
They say an 'I love you, what star do you live on?'
They smile and then darken,
And silent, I answer 'You too--I have known you,--I love you!--'
And the shadows of tree-trunks and shadows of leaves
Interlace with low voices and footsteps and sunlight
To divide us forever..

The Oblivion In Your Eyes Of Obsidian
Words of the past haunt me as they linger nearby.
I watch in a state of wakefulness as everyone else unites.
My cold arms lacking the weight of the one whom I loved dear-
Cannot find the peace of mind that I want to hold near.
Silently counting the days that surpass me in a rush;
Glimpsing at each night with the sound of an awkward hush.
I bask in this sorrow that engulfs the rest of my broken heart,
I'm lost without your presence; you kept me sane for the most part.
The rest of the time I went insane with your touches of affection;
You held on tight to my kisses and promised me your protection
I jumped off the cliff of self-control and spiraled down towards oblivion;
Died without the chance to take one last glance into your eyes of obsidian.
Weak tears fall down my ghostly white face as I walk down this road:
I'm uncertain as to what direction to turn , I do not even know.
But I trust my image of you that lie forever etched inside my mind;
With you just in my heart and smiling so brilliantly within, I still can be alive.

one more kiss
****************************************
Here we lay in the dark
you have one arm around my waist
your other hand slowly touching my face
the moon light through the window
softly lights your face
I look into your eyes
so full of love and devotion that it overwhelms my very soul
as you kiss my lips I close my eyes
and am over come with everything that you are to me
my best friend
my lover
my soul mate
my true complete
as you pull away
my eyes open
I am face to face with my own angel
you whisper "I love you" so softly in my ear
kiss my neck
I have one hand on your back
one running through your hair
pulling you in for another kiss
I can't believe how you always leave me breathless
every touch, kiss, bite
brings our bodies closer
wordlessly clothes are shed
laying here in your arms
nothing left to separate us
skin on skin
we begin to make love
softly you enter me
I can't help but gasp
& bite my lower lip
an impish smile spreads across your lips
our bodies move in perfect harmony
intertwined fingers, lips, tongues, legs
every move, touch, kiss brings another wave of pleasure
I am completely consumed by your love
looking into your face
the face of the man I love with my heart and soul
I know that this is where i belong
in your arms, safe and strong
you hold me so close
protecting me from the outside world
all my fears and doubts fall away
we are alone in the world
our bodies still
I lay my head softly on your chest
for just a moment before you lift my chin
you look into my eyes
and some how some way
even when your lips fall silent, and all is still
its your eyes that speak the depths of your love
one more kiss
before we both surrender
drifting off to dreams
***********************************************
It happened one night
************************************
It is a tale
That began that silent night
hushed by the falling snow
little flakes of pristine white
had wrapped world in an icy embrace
and cloaked trees in ermine coats
Under the Deodar tree
I waited for her,and
She came from the dark
like a wandering breeze
on feet as light as dew
she was as one with the moons
mysteries,timeless fascination
upon mans ignorant eyes.
I first spoke out
and patiently she heard,
and acquiesced
The cold winds form the PierPanjal
cocooned us around
The barren freezing street
Uttered barely a sound
still, music there was in the air
that we heard;
Hesitant not,I gaze unto the radiance
of her eyes,and felt drawn
as if she awaited touch of me lips
Her lips met mine
for a brief eternity,we two kissed
and together felt the warmth
of our own little bliss
Her voice heard in the silent embrace
"Forget not this gentle embrace
for I leave you never.
live not in the Joys of things
shine light upon the darkness of things to be.
And taste each sweet breath that is given
in your souls dance."
And drifted back
this muse of mine,
who kissed my soul so very long ago.
And in some tranquil nights when darkness rests
I hear again her voice
in my souls embrace...

His presence undeniably inflaming her heart desires,
a powerful enchanted spell is what it seems to be.
He gently steps forward, kissing her sultry red lips,
her mind breaks free, absorbing the visions of his dynasty.
Shaken by reality, but unmoved by his passionate strive,
his black edition unveiled, to a dying lover's soul.
Her future, his past, as a kiss of dark elements surpassed,
a century of seeking his love, now covered in red rose stains.
Anger deep inside, shaping his soul's gloomiest cries,
with crystal teardrop eyes, bursting from the inside.
With hands entwined, love the foundation of his crime.
A stone written in flames is their future's dying frame.
Many moons have past since the day of first glance,
his mind uneased by the visions he has foreseen.
A spark of insanity inflicted upon his soul,
the last rising moon is death's consuming gloom.
A disease foretold, on finding his lover's soul,
shattered and frozen, he holds his dying love.
Her last breath taken by death's rising moon,
a hushing sense of love, hovering in despair.
The curse of mortal love, blazing through his veins,
his black edition of the end, replenishes love's fatal descend.
His piercing cry, awakens the immortal rage inside,
a shaded broken heart, flames revenge on his path.

When I look in your eyes I can feel the fire.
