RoseMarie's Song

The path is long
The hill is steep
I know not where it leads
I do know where I've been

A land of destruction
A world of pain
All that I had is lost
Never to be seen again

Where is it that I may go?
To where may I hide?
The past will not leave me
If only it would

For now I will travel
I move further each day
Away from my past
Into the unknown

-Princess RoseMarie

The Cry of One

The innermost workings
Of an individual's soul
Are often difficult for
The average mind to see.

People cannot see the struggles
The stresses, the problems
Of the individual soul
For they are hidden from all

The individual cries
Silently tears that can
Never be consoled
People cannot console
That which they cannot see.

The toils and the pains grow
A mountain out of an
Anthill. Tears fill an
Ocean. Nobody cares

The pain increases,
The river flows.
Nothing can be done
Nothing can be prevented

For the individual's soul is alone.

Sinking

I am sinking
Sinking to a world that I have known
To a place that I don't belong
It is a cold place, the warmth is gone
Life begins to cease, my world no longer functions.

Superficial images fade into my past
I live under a veil of darkness
A world which only I can see
If only there was a way out
A rope, a ladder?

Perhaps a simple candle
Small yet bright, a light among darkness
Then others could see
Others would understand
A warmth would exist.

Right now there is no use for companions
No use for a voice
They cannot see, the world is blinded
Except for myself, sitting there
Eternally sinking

A light once shined in the distance
But has long burned out
It is now much too dark
If only there could be a candle
A simple candle, to light the way
For others to see.

When One's Greatest Love is Forgotten

I love you. Every day me heart cries to be with you
The sound of your voice, the touch of your hand
They all make me want to smile.
When I am around you, all life's problems are forgotten
A Utopia exists. You and me
We look into each others eyes, yet see only friends
Though I love you and you love me, the feelings do not connect.

I think of you everyday, and dream of you every night
Dancing to sweet music, holding you.
Our minds alike, our thoughts the same
Neither of us see the light, the possibility.

For me their are other guys and for you other girls
Yet none are so perfect as you for me
Time moves on, the feelings change
You hurt me, call me stupid. A strike against a wounded soldier.
Wounded by love, not by fear.
Your smile protects you, your smile has captured me.

The conversations that we have had, the games we have played
No longer seem to matter.
You do your thing and I do mine, separate and apart
My heart yearns for you, but the feeling is no longer mutual
Oh, how Cupid does cry
When one's greatest love is forgotten.

The unknown love
I talk to you
I dream of you
I know who you are
I know how you look
I love the sound of your voice
I love to think of you
For the day when we meet...
I dream long hours of it
Unsure of what I'll do...
I know I'll hold you dear,
with holding back any fear.
And for the day
when I look
into your eyes...
I know love has
found my eyes,
and grabbed me
by a hook.
And when we meet
I'll never let go,
for if i do.. .
To hell I'll go

-Marco Lecumberri



Impatient to see you,
Impatient to hear you,
I wait and wait,
But I know I'll see you in a few.
With all the faith,
I know I'll see you.
Yesterday we talked
Tomorrow we'll walk,
in the beach, at the mall, hand in hand,
we'll be together.
I dreamnt of you,
but soon the dream will come true.
And when I see you, you'll be my queen.
In July I will fly East and North,
we'll be together,
and when I'll want you more,
forever

-Marco Lecumberri

Life And Soul

Early Rise,
Late To Fall,
My Soul Lives On,
Through The Darkness Foreshown,
Fire To Strike,
Wind To Scold,
Water To Drown,
Earth Behold,
But My Soul Lives On,
No Matter The Dark,
No Matter The Light,
These Endless Travels Of Life,
Through The Start,
And Over The End,
To Start Again,
And Once Again,
My Soul Lives On...........

Tus Ojos

Tus ojos son brillantes
Cuando tienes un idea -
Como el sol saliente.
A menudo, yo soņo
De hablando contigo
Hasta el sol ha subido,
Y tus ojos,
Finalmente,
Se han puesto.

Your Eyes

Your eyes are bright
When you have a thought -
Like the rising sun.
Often, I dream
Of speaking with you
Until the sun has risen,
And your eyes,
Finally,
Have set.


-Silvia Rose

Forever In My Heart

A full moon reflects across a sea of glass,
Flourescent stars in the sky, tell of legends past.
The dark water moves swiftly as it searches the sand,
And the warm wind flows softly over the desolate land.

On this island of dreams and imaginations,
Appear the wonderous creatures of every habitation.
There's no need to worry, and no need to fear,
Only peace, tranquility, and love are found here.

The songs of the forest sooth your soul,
As it's magic takes hold of you, then let's you go.
But none of this compares to the magic inside,
And the love that exists between you and I.

We'll take long walks on the sand soft as snow,
And pick beautiful flowers from the shore as we go.
I'll gaze into our eyes, and you'll look into mine,
And after one sweet kiss, we'll lose all track of time.

The power of love is an imeasurable force.
It can sweep you off your feet, not telling you it's course.
Then all of a sudden, you play a very important part,
As we two become one...


You're forever in my heart.


Emperor Falcon
