Here is one I wrote a while back...

WHat ya think guys?

Forgotten But Remembered

I never thought I would come to this,
Kept so far away from something that I wanted so bad.
I never came close to what I would have had and what could?ve been.
With people so one dimensioned I can?t never ever win.

Taking long breathes and leaving shorter sighs is my life?s demise;
Long and painful with a short ending without a cause? is what it will come down to.
Creeping up on me is a feeling I can?t stop,
It makes me hollow sometimes from the bottom of my heart to the top.

I?ll be remembered after forgotten;
Knowing that I never meant that much to you hurts me inside
Swings into me like a razor?s edge.
My feelings now, that?s something I just can?t hide anymore.

For what I know and what I show is something different from you.
I?m sorry for the times we fight;
Didn?t know I?ll be forgotten without knowing I was remembered.
To me you were always my bright oh so ever lasting light.

Even though I already said, in a very indirect way though, that those limericks weren't mine.........I shall say again...just to avoid controversy.......I didn't make them up.

[gnr157]

well the light still flickers in this cold little room
we've been at odds lately
have I been singin' out of tune?
do we gotta a chance left baby?

Well I feel the cold cement under my feet
standin' in this room
just tryin' to figure
whatever happened to you an me
from a mansion full of grace
to a little room, empty and misplaced
yeah I guess we got lost in the things
lost for days
wandering around this maze

there's never enough
from the benz to the diamond rings
you loved it all untill one day you loved it more
well honey I'm layin on this cement floor
just thinkin of times between you and me
but animosity is takin' control
so woman you better find yourself
before the greed gets a hold
and your forced to sell it all
just to stay out of the cold

cause girl you spent your time in pursuit
collecting things while life passed you by
now your youth is gone
and your head's up in the sky
while fantasies of riches soar
your reality is on the corner
beggin for more

yeah whatever we had is gone
I'm sleepin' on a cement floor
tryin' to figure out what went wrong
and your still bangin at the door
trying to get your hands on anything
cause all you ever wanted was more
yeah your drove me into poverty
breaking my heart
but you still can't figure it out
that the only thing we have for sure
is the one thing you don't even care about

cause girl you spent your time in pursuit
collecting things while life passed you by
now your youth is gone
and your head's up in the sky
while fantasies of riches soar
your reality is on the corner
beggin for more

[gnr157]

Well I can't believe this mess
they threw me into county the another night
then they tried to get me to confess
to crime I didn't commit, yeah

Well I can't believe this mess
the judge stared me right in the face
and told me I better confess
if I ever wanna leave this place

Well justice ain't never looked so ugly
I closed my eyes for a second
and the whole system is tryin' to fuck me
from the county recorder
to the local reporter
no one cares enough to see
how this system makes a simple man bleed
yeah they'll draw blood on the working class
they'll turn us against one another
it's all happened so fast
that one day you'll find yourself
pickin' on your own mother

well it's the rich and elite
using misinformation
making the working class bleed
do they ever stop condesending?
lady justice is fuckin' me
and my neighbors are judging me
but before they know it
they'll be joining me

[loretian]

gnr157, cool, I like it!

Latest by me : Sometimes ( don't think it's good but still)


A word can sting like a dart, sometimes
Some sentence wounds deep in
Probably didn?t mean anything
A heart can break, sometimes

How the heart goes sore, hurt
How the hurt drenches my pores
How my pores want to melt
Melt, pain, and don?t want more

Sometimes I love you, need your touch
Sometimes, I hate you do much too
Sometimes, sometimes, do I live for sometimes?
Do I live to wait for you to love me, sometimes?

A word can show the road, sometimes
A way I was afraid to take, before
Because of a reaction, not anymore
A heart can be proud, sometimes

How would you feel to know?
How would you see my tears?
How these tears drench my face
Face to face, no where to go.

How would you feel to know?
How would you see my fears?
How these fears blocked my needs
Need to know, here to know...

Sometimes I love you, need your touch
Sometimes, I hate you do much too
Sometimes, sometimes, do I live for sometimes?
Do I live to wait for you to love me, sometimes?

Sometimes I think of you like you want me to
Sometimes I make a wish to forget about you
Sometimes, sometimes, do I live for sometimes?
Please be mine, now, love me, once, be mine.

[Captain P?l]

one of 2 songs i wrote today... quite odd for beeing me  

My New Era


Its time for a new life.
My past has been gray.
The wisdom has faded.
And all gone away

Time for some changes,
Paint my world bright.
But it aint that easy,
To leave it behind

Welcome to a new era!
where the gray fades away
Ev'rything comes bright n' clean
Though nothing seems to be for real

Wash away the colors of the past
Leave the past behind
I aint the first, and not the last
Start a new life
It aint easy, aint gonna come fast
Welcome to a new era
Cheer up, Remove the broken cast
The gray fade away
   
Welcome to a new era!
where the gray fades away
Ev'rything comes bright n' clean
Though nothing seems to be for real

I want on top of the world
Stay there for a while
Paint my psycodelic brain black
But i sure aint goin' back!

Welcome to a new era!
where the gray fades away
Ev'rything comes bright n' clean
Though nothing seems to be for real


------------------------------------------------------
thisi s what i do when im trying to get some sleep 5o'clock in the morning when i should be driving my dad off to the doctor at 9 the next day.......    
the other song needs some petting before i dare do anything with it!!  


oh, and * an C with a ring around* Captain P?l!

Wrote this today

When things come to an end

My heart beats faster than usual today
And my head spins in many directions
I tremble of anger, I cry of delusion
I shout all the things I couldn?t say

I wish I could trash the whole place down
Break any memory in pieces
I have to wait more, more patience
I wish I could destroy that man

So much anger, so much hate
Him, his family, his ways
I thought it was my destiny, fool?s fate
I thought I was destined to decay

Only took one morning to realise
I am going to be free once more
I couldn?t call for help, stupid pride
Now I do, calling family ashore

Who knows where I?ll be in 6 months?
Who cares, as long as I am safe, happy?
Will be talking my pride, my cat, my stuff
And hopefully, will chance a new me.

I am a lost heart, a broken one, on the mend
I am like all souls who have grieved a love
Like all souls who needed to be loved
Like anyone, when things come to an end.

DAD

You have not been gone a year
Every day reminds me of you
Every month, layer by layer
The vision of you falls through

I wish you were still by me
Shouting, telling me to grow up
Telling me of what I should see
Simply me not giving a fuck

In your own words, you were there
I couldn?t tell you, I loved you
Now I do, everyday, so sincere
Hoping you hear me Illyanou

How I wish I could pick up the phone
You?d be telling me about your days
I?d know just by your voice, your tone
We had found our own little ways

In your own words, you were there
I couldn?t tell you, I loved you
Now I do, everyday, so sincere
Hoping you hear me Illyanou

Now more than ever, I need you
The only comfort, imagining your presence
Life is hard right now, without you
Without my father, without your advice

In your own words, you were there
I couldn?t tell you, I loved you
Now I do, everyday, so sincere
Hoping you hear me Illyanou

You have not been gone a year
Your birthday is getting closer
February will be sad this year
I miss you dad, I miss my father.

[loretian]

Jessica, those are beautiful.  Keep on writing more!  

[Jessica]

The vision of you falls through

I wish you were still by me
Shouting, telling me to grow up
Telling me of what I should see
Simply me not giving a fuck

In your own words, you were there

Now I do, everyday, so sincere
Hoping you hear me Illyanou

How I wish I could pick up the phone
You’d be telling me about your days
I’d know just by your voice, your tone
We had found our own little ways

Thank you for posting this beautiful poem.

I am working on a new song titled "Magic Moment". I am inspired to share a song but out of respect I think I'll wait.

After reading "DAD"...

 "Redemption"- Part 1 - (Copyrighted)


In darkness, on my knees
In a forest full of rotting trees

Far away from prying eyes
From the monsters I despise

Monotonous prayers invade my mind
As answers here, I seek to find

From a God who isn't there
A God I search for in despair

For I have crawled through all these years
Burdened by my sullen fears

Of what some robot thinks of me
Of why I'm here, what I'm to be

And as I watch my fears unfurl
Trapped inside my sterile world

I feel that I've nowhere to turn
For simple things I've yet to learn

Of life, and love, and harmony
Oh how I wish my eyes could see

If only that these things were real
For me to touch, to taste, to feel

[hippiechick914]

"All This Time"

Looking for answers that I may never find
Only to discover I had them all this time
Masterful manipulation of somebody else's mind
You can love somebody whole-heartedly
Only to discover they never loved you all this time

Reflecting back on a year and a half
I lack words to express what I once had
What I once would give blood for
Doesn't matter anymore
The one playing the game all this time
Has unfortunately won
In this devestation I find
It was already over
before it had even begun
But I'm not the only one
Staring back at the same reflection
You can run away leaving what you created unfinished
As over time I find so much has diminished
Still what I longed to be completed
Will now never be done
Still the decision was yours as well
I'm not the only one

Accepting that truth to somebody else
Can sometimes only mean lies to yourself
I find after all this time
The answers to your questions
Layed deep within my mind
Though the words you would speak
Sounded temptingly sweet
Blackened intenitons are only meant to blind
As I look back
Upon the last year and a half
I realize you never really even cared all this time

Feelings in vain never felt
Alongside everybody else you I cannot help
Step over to the other side
Without my former self too far behind
There is nothing more I would like
Then for the two of us into one~ melt
But upon our heads lies the burdens
And nobody else
You have the answers as do I
But we share them not with each other
Only with ourselves

As in every ending there is some beginning
Places you never expected to find
Person under anoither person you never thought you would know
To the world what is it your truly giving
As in another person's mind you've been living
But haven't we been  each others victim though

I can't seem to mind
What I've failed to accept all this time
Certain situations leave a person far from being whole
Though in remenants I find
What I never wanted to accept all this time
You never wanted love
Just somebody to control

[Mal Brossard]

This is the most recent one I wrote.  Still working on a tune for it.

"I've Had Enough"
Written by El Drewman
Jan. 25-28, 2004, Boston, MA

VERSE ONE
You made me feel like shit
When I did nothing to hurt you.
Make me feel I wasted
So much time on being nice.
And then you kicked me in the teeth
And lied about me too.
You never seemed to get enough
Attention is your vice.
You threw it all away and thought
There's nothing I would do.
You thought that you had won it all
But you didn't know the price.
You can slam me all you want
Find another to pursue.
But will you do it all again
When other problems arise?

CHORUS
When you go through it too
I hope it's hard, I hope it's slow
So you can get a little taste
Of how you treated me.
You took it out from under me
I give it back to you
You showered me with hatred
And now my anger grows.

VERSE TWO
Those who once liked me before
Just listen to your myth
Put on the charm, feign innocence
They'll do all that you need.
When I ask what you said of me
You choose to plead the fifth
If you're trying to ruin my life
You've nearly begun to succeed.
Now I'm out to clear my name
Across every valley and cliff
But wrecking my name with everyone
Appears your life's new creed.
I wanted to keep our fighting clean
Wish it didn't come to this
You fuck with me, I fuck you back
Just following your lead.

CHORUS

VERSE THREE
You want my wrath, you got it now
Though it follows silently.
You may not see it right now
But you'll realize it soon.
Reaction coming quiet
Won't fall on you violently.
I'll work it slowly all around
I'm starting with this tune.
I won't let you tell your lies
As I stand by idly.
Soon you'll feel abandoned
On the dark side of the moon.
Fight back all you want
Swinging, missing wildly.
Finally we'll be even
Even though we'll both be ruined.

CHORUS

SPOKEN
Across the paths
And through the halls
Inside my mind
I never fall
I take you down
I've had enough
Revenge comes fast
Revenge comes rough

CHORUS

END
Revenge comes fast
Revenge comes rough
I'll take you down
I've had enough
(Repeat a few times)

Hey that's decent loretian.........I was singing it instead of reading it....lol.......it has an old rock n roll feel...blended with a breath of fresh air from a different generation....namely you......

Hippie...........I like "All This Time".........one question though...........in the end.....it's all a pure reflection right?................I mean....you're not calling for change per se are you?.........or perhaps you are and I never picked it up.........

[loretian]

Thanks man, I really appreciate that!  

I've recorded part of it, but my recording stuff isn't working now, so I gotta buy new recording equipment to finish it up...  hopefully, with D's help, it'll sound kinda decent.  I'll post it when it's finished.

"Magic Moment"
  copyright 2004-cdp

(dedicated to a very old soul in my personal life)


It felt like we knew eachother from another place and time
When our eyes locked it was when your lips looked at mine
How could it be that you'd remember me, after all of this time

You know I died that day
As you watched me walk away
Nothing really mattered to me
I left everything behind, but the magic moment

SOOOO I ran away...so far away that you couldn't stay the same
Why didn't you leave it that way
the way it should have been...It was our moment


Everyday now, It's what you wanted the pain I'm feeling,
Is what you always needed it to be...
So run away, so far away, you can't stay this way
If there is something beyond, a magic moment

You know I died that day
As you watched me walk away
Nothing really mattered to me
But the Magic moment

A magic moment...
