Passing Through

Soldiers of fortune lost in the wind
no destination and nothing to win.
Keeping heads above the water, you get dirty and mean
scrubbing forever, but you never come clean.
A life that is easy, a dream that comes true
flowers for someone but they sure ain't for you.
Your room's filled with soft light, safe and secure
mine is the dark night and nothing's for sure.
A life that is easy, a dream to be free
flowers for someone, but they sure ain't for me

The world i know

This is the world that i know,
where millions of summers await me.
I lead, you follow, i am your tomorrow.
Into my past, you fade away..

And while you weep, my pride turns into snow
and melts on the face of this light of hope.
My precious light of hope..

While i laugh, your pride turns into snow
and dance on the grave of what you thought you used to know.
And in the garden, i will burn callous robes
and forever shine my Light of Hope..

Fonte Frida - *Romance*

Fonte frida, fonte frida
Fonte frida y con amor,
do todas las avecicas
van tomar consolion,
sino es la tortolica,
que esta vida y con dolor.

Por ahi fuera a pasar
el traidor del ruisenor
las palabras que le dice
lienas son de traicio:

yo seria tu servidor.

Vete de ahi, enemigo,
malo, falso, enganador,
que ni poso en ramo verde
ni en ramo que tenga flor,
que si el agua hallo clara
turbia la bebiera yo;
que no quiero haber marido
porque higos ni hayo, no;
no quiero placer con ellos
ni menos consolacio.

Dejam triste, enemigo,
malo, falso, mal traidor,
que no quiero ser tu amigo
ni casar contig, no!

Angel kiss of Death

Hark!
the time is nigh,
rest your head and close your eye.
Quiver not, for i am here,
right behind you...never fear.

Lay your head down on my chest,
do not battle, against your rest.
One day soon , we'll meet again,
until then,
goodbye...dear friend.

The Thing

The who, the what, the when , the where?
The look, the glimpse, the glance, the stare.
This thing, it follows me everywhere..
Leave me alone and let me be, the way i choose,
which is free..
You be you, let me, be me.
After all,
isn't that the way it ought to be?

Quickly, quietly, rushing away, i've come so far but yet i stay,
stuck where i've started, miles away.
Still left with nothing to say..
So, grip me, grab me and hold me close,
you'll never get all of me,
just a little dose..

Mankind?

For the longest time i've been mind-boggled by the word "mankind". How is it that we never know exactly who or what we are dealing with?
How come people never turn out to be who they've portrayed themselves to be?

Why does the word "kind" feature in mankind anyway, when all we do is hurt, use and manipulate to our advantage.

Many times we are told to fight our way through. You gotta be tough and push forward -be hard as nails?? What does the term "hard as nails" mean anyway? Am i supposed to compromise my principles and beliefs just to be the best?

"The world wears a mask" they say, i reckon it's a layer of veils we wear. The amount of layers depends on how open and honest we are to ourselves. How much of ourselves we are willing to reveal..
Are we unhappy, or have we been programmed to be this way? Maybe we've become so caught up in the so called "dog eat dog" world, the world where we don't care about anothers' emotional wellbeing.
The world where we are so self-absorbed that we don't really give a fellow human being a second glance.

Why the smoke and mirrors??

The more i hide, the less they see... Well, who knows

Now, slowly lift your veil and ask yourself - "am i really worthy of being called mankind?"

The true challenge lies in being truthful to yourself....
