It is a fait accompli', it is done
I rise to greet the morning sun
And think about the pending day
Now all my troubles fade away
Things that are beyond control
For which we've sold our very soul
Haunt us as we try to wake
Made a sad and fatal mistake
What is dead if not our heart
Something picked our world apart
We were one but now divided
Cannot change what you've decided
As we consider the lonely feat
Knowing what it was that beat
Withdraw into tedious tasks
Life provides the fickle masks
Patience of a heart contrived
Feeling helpless, tossed aside
Induced by zeal, sad inspiration
Draw another generation
What will be the
Find myself sliding in a terminal funk
Trying to determine what I did to flunk
She says it's her, but I know it's me
May be a fool, but I can't help but see
She dropped me off like yesterday's trash
Wasn't expecting it, it hit like a lash
Said she was sorry, but still, she won't call
I feel like smashing my head on the wall
Can't help but wondering why love went awry
And, if I could, I would sit down and cry
Wish I could be angry, but I'm merely sad
She's left me here, guess it's really too bad
They say that true love never runs a straight course
More like a disturbance inside of the force
Blew out my windows, then kicked down m
The extra inch, the extra mile
All you wanted was to see her smile
But she was shadowed in discontent
Wonder where the spirit went
She said she thought you didn't care
Didn't think, was not aware
You suffered in ignominious silence
And sought to do yourself some violence
Crazy as it often seems
Her face invaded all your dreams
Till you could no longer sleep
Depression took you fast and deep
It was the price that must be paid
God has wired you to get laid
And yet, you wish it could be other
Perhaps you needed her to be your mother
Emotions running fast and hard
Flailing around in your backyard
Tomorrow comes, you write the le
Confronted by the reality of what we're moving toward
I pick up my guitar and strike another chord
It's easier to forget it, even to be ignored
Then to think it might be over, in fact, almost assured
Why am I so stupid to keep my hopes so high
It happens almost every time, should know the reason why
She's like any other girl and I am just a guy
Perhaps I should just pucker up and kiss the bitch goodbye
But I think I love her, oh Lord, more fool me
Everybody thinks I'm crazy, I have to agree
What is now in substance her desire to be free
Drove off with my heart 'cause I gave her the key
Tell me this dear Doctor, will I yet recover

Literature
On The Delicate Construction
He was practiced at the art of seduction
A master of love's delicate construction
She was like fresh putty in his hands
He molded her to her shy demands
And proceeded as a matter of deduction
He knew not where he would turn next
Tried desperately to put it in context
Inside his mind, the gears enmeshed
With his batteries refreshed
But his memories of her had him plumly vexed
After a while, he peered past his heart
He really had forgotten how to start
But where there's a will, there's a way
He prepared what he might say
Had all his apples loaded on the cart
Her friends were keeping her aside
With patience, he waited out the rid
In a moment, the switch can turn
And the passions once more burn
It is time for another turn
In the labyrinth of love
A single word of advice
Please think more than twice
Love too incredibly nice
For off the cliff to shove
Your lady, a delicate dancer
From whom you find an answer
On Donner, on Blitzen, on Prancer
Let your spirit fly
Tell her that you adore her
Tell her that you live for her
Never, never ignore her
Lest her love should die
The fundamental reasons
The changing of the seasons
Ecclesiastical treasons
Have split your hope in two
But in her is a spark
Your voice has hit the mark
You're happy as a lark
And now
Disappointments truly abound
Bad love makes the world go 'round
Listen to that lonely sound
It is your heart now breaking
You were faithful, you were true
Something missing, you didn't do
Turned the final, fatal screw
The cause of your mistaking
You were honest to a fault
Locked her feelings in a vault
Acted not on her gestalt
Now the party's over
She suspected what was false
Told her to eat applesauce
She said no one was her boss
She buried you in clover
Now's the time you must release
She has found her golden fleece
Leave her be to go in peace
She surely doesn't want you
Thank her for her time and trouble
Her choice was
I cannot deal with no reply
All women do it, I wonder why
I sit alone, let my heart die
The things they said become a lie
Love is fleeting, love is fickle
Though it might your fancy tickle
All at once you're in a pickle
And the tears begin to trickle
You wish you could be happy for her
Somewhere inside you still adore her
But it becomes too tall an order
Rationalizations on a recorder
Remember that she owes you nothing
No explanation for your rebuffing
A higher bidder now does the stuffing
She must have thought that you were bluffing
Something inside her obviously died
She cares not for the tears you've cried
It's your probl
A heart is driven by unbridled passion
To seek the love a mind might fashion
And while it's impossible to explain
It finds return, it's not in vain
Born with kindred spirit ties
Intuition to make us wise
Dreaming of our fine tomorrows
Displacing worries, burying sorrows
What do you see when you close your eyes
I see you, that's no surprise
Staring back at me with a smile
I savor the moment for a while
In that minute, you are with me
My body tingles as you kiss me
Oh, that we could make it true
I'd give anything, how 'bout you
Beautiful lady, here's a thought
With the ticket I just bought
Flying to your waiting arms
Drawn by
Flame meets the wind, in a whirl, they're afire
It is to love that their visions aspire
She is astounded by her feelings unknown
He is quite flattered by the joy she has shown
She gives him hope and her own joie de vivre
He gives her love and the power of a believer
She stops to think, but she's hearing her heart
Perhaps for the first time, knows where love's meant to start
August one and four meets October one and oh
Five seeking one and the feelings must grow
Even to even, the queens defeat odds
Fire bows down and gives thanks, they are God's
Souls know no boundaries, jeux sans frontieres
Five thousand miles makes no difference
Tell me, sweet one, how do you feel
If I looked inside, your heart might reveal
Do not wonder at me, but wonder at you
I am no stranger, you know me, it's true
We could have been lovers in an Elizabethan age
Or twin sisters in China, together on stage
We may have been brothers, with a business to start
I am not kidding, I'm not trying to be smart
Nothing we can imagine is ever impossible
Listen, my thoughts might vibrate an ossicle
The music that plays when you read my words
An ancient love aria, major fifths, minor thirds
Tell me, my darling, you've heard it before
Yet it is new, but you could have just swore
Something familiar
Take me down to Water Lily Pond
Our wildest pleasures would not be beyond
We could dance and make love all day
All of our troubles would merely fade away
Take me up to the highest heights
Thrill me in the days, capture my nights
Life was made for love, there isn't too much more
Without you in my arms, I'll be sad for sure
I can see your face reflected in the pool
If I had show and tell, I would take you to school
Announce to the class, you're the one I love
All the boys and girls would run and push and shove
Take me to the limit and never bring me back
I don't care if I have a heart attack
All that is holy, I see within your eye
Contending with mediocrity's bane
All that surrounds me seems rather plain
When will the sky burst and show me the bubble
I think that our universe is in deep, deep trouble
How many others could there possibly be
Ten to a power that's radically free
No one can know, the probability endless
Scrambled in cyberspace to those I might send this
Difficult concepts need wide open minds
Quantam or macro, they're incredible finds
Unity being the one common thread
And, when we see it, we'll know what it's said
Draw it together, God at His best
Why do we stay on an impossible quest
The answer, quite simple, it is, for we must
The key to t
