Cascading Germination

Scenic Route
A speck of
Sand in Zygote's
Hand

Generously X'ing
And Y'ing in
Demarkation's limiting
Path

No Steps along
The Way
Not today
Go lightly
You brazen one

Your gumption
Denotes a Wisdom
Beyond Consciousness
Such an Epic adventure
You so endure

How did you really
Get here?
From Afar?
Mother, Father
God
I Am Sure

Did You Really Love Her?

You Said I Love You
You Said You Don't Lie
You Said You Won't Leave

You Said A Lot
But When I Found Out
You Lied And You Still Do

I Told You Good Bye
My Little Girl Told You So
My Little Girl Tried To Help You

And All You Did Was Back Away

My Little Girl Lays Down At Night Asking Why
My Little Girl Ask You All The Time Do You Still Love
Her

Our Little Girl Had Been Hurt
Our Little Girl Blames Herself For Everything
Our Little Girl Never Gave Up

Your Little Girl Wanted To Ask You
Did You Really Love Her?

The Question Never Got Answered

Did You Really Make Me, Me

Dear God,

You said you could take my doubts
I'm sorry I'm not filled with love an adoration right now
But this is what I think, I know you'd want me to be honest
So this is what I'm really wondering, so answer me

Dear God,

Did you really make me, me?
God you gave me eyes to see
God you gave me every hair on head
God you gave me life and now I'm not dead
You said you gave me all the gifts I had
For the longest time
I scorned these gifts saying I had none, not even this rhyme
But you're my loving Father, God you're my dad
But did you really make me me?

Dear God,

You gave me all of my gifts, so You gave me the gift to run
You gave me everything, so You gave me the motivation to run
Didn't you God?
Doesn't this mean that you gave me this desire?
I love to hike, I love each and every esplanade
Did you MAKE me to love them prior
Or did I learn to?
Did you make me with my desires, all of them, was that really You?
If it was then aren't you pleased when I run
Aren't you pleased when I do those things You made me for
Even if it makes my legs sore, my mind sore, whatever sore.
Aren't you pleased with me, pleased with your son?

Dear God,

Did You MAKE me with ALL my desires, everything I like to do
Do You bless my efforts with them too
I just don't understand why I like anything unless you made me that way
I just don't understand because what I really want to say
Right now is that I'm doubting
I'm thinking
That I gave myself these desires, but Father
Sorry to be a bother
But I cannot handle that conclusion
Tell me it's all an illusion
Tell me my desires ARE from YOU
Because if they're not, I don't know what I'd do
I'd question everything that I do
I might even start to question You too
I wouldn't know my purpose or if I should run
If I should spend hours in the sun
If I should play video games or eat ramen
If I should ride my bike
If I should go out and hike
This is way too much of a strain
I cannot bear this burden of worrying about what to do
So please tell me it's from You
Please tell me you made me to run God
God you said You can handle my doubts.... but I cant feel you right now
God I know you're there so I bow
But I'm doubting, tell me you made me Father.... Father....

Dear God,

Please promise me that you made me, me

Did You Really Rape A Woman?

Dark rewrite of Byran Adam's hit song, Have You Ever Loved A Woman?

Tell me, baby
Just what did you do to that woman
Did I misunderstand her
Or did you really tear her apart so deep inside
Is it all just her own sick thoughts
Is it all just a cold, cruel dream
Or is it true
Did you do what she said you did
Did you break her so bad that now all she wants is to die
Did you force her into lyin there
Helpless in your arms
I just have to know
Did you really, really
Did you really rape this woman

Have you ever raped a woman
She told me
Yes, you have and did
Took what you wanted
Against her will
Warned her to be quiet or you would kill everyone
Everyone that she cared about
Oh yes
She says
You threatened everybody
All because from her you never
Never got a second look
So tell me if you can
It's not true
Answer me when I query
Have you ever, ever really raped this woman

If you raped this woman
I must say
I'm really, really turned off
Can no longer stand to be in the same room with you
Gettin' sick just thinkin' about
How you must have touched her
Breathed into her
Tasted her
Until you brough forth the blood
And now for sure I can tell
For in your eyes are swimming those tell-tell lies
Whispering to me
You really did rape this woman

Because you raped this woman
I can no longer say
You are the dream that I wanted
No, no you are more like a nightmare neverending
'Cause I know if you'll do it to one
You will do it again to anybody
Maybe even me
And so now I know truthfully we can never be together
'Cause when I ask
Your cruel eyes and that expression on your face said it
You really, really did rape this woman

Oh-you've robbed me of my faith
Because you held her
Just a little too tight
Showed not even an ounce of tenderness
Got no idea at all
How to treat a woman right

Jerk
Somewhere you must have really went wrong
Believing no matter what you did
I would stand by you
Be there for you
Lie for you
Even after you did the unthinkable
Even after you raped this woman

Trapped her
Helpless in your too strong arms
Could't fight back
I saw the truth in your eyes
That's how I know
You really, really raped this woman

Repeat chorus

Yeah-now I know that you really
Really, really raped this woman
Oh-yes, you scumbag, I know
'Cause I saw the truth there in your lyin' blue eyes
You really, really did rape this woman

Did. Did You Do A Panic

Did. Did you do a panic.
With a frantic...
Undoing panic?

Did. Did you do a panic...

Frantically?

Tell me did you do a panic.
With a frantic...
Undoing panic?

Did you really do a panic...

Frantically?

Or...

Did you feel romantic?

Or...
Was it really panic?

Tell me did you do a panic.
With a frantic...
Undoing panic?

Did you really do a panic...

Frantically?

Or...
Did you feel romantic?
Tell me, tell me now.
Or was it really panic?

Did You Know

Did you know that love can grow any place where people go,
And I can tell by what I see that you have found a place with me.
The sun is high the day is new and
I have found a place with you.
Ev'ry place and ev'ry face casts a spell and leaves a trace,
With you in mind and with you near, the myth is gone, the past is clear
And here with scars of now and then so you and I begin again.
Did you know I've been searchin'? Did you know I've been blind?
Did you know I've been touchin' anything I could find?
Did you know that here below, moving where my feelings flow,
You live with me in time that's new, suspended in a love that's true
And far beyond the fatal noise and bathed in all life's simple joys.
Did you know that love can grow any place where people go,
And I can tell by what I see that you have found a place with me.

How Did You Kill A White Butterfly?

in your play
with your peers
children
when you catch
a white butterfly
in your hand
how did you
kill it?

did you pull
its white wings?
or did you crush
its head
on your nails?

did you detach
its legs one
by one
like you pulled
the white hairs
of mother?

tell me
if once in your mind
you decide
to set it free
and see it fly
hovering like
a flake of snow
from one
wilting flower
to another?

tell me if you
feel the same way
i do
when the clutches
of love finally set me free?

tell me if you know
the sound of a door
which closes behind you
when finally you
decide to leave
the house of
your birth?

tell me how you
zip your jacket
when you say
it is enough
and then
you feel everything
so warm inside
you?

that every inch
fits and you say

i am leaving for good.

did you really kill
the butterfly with white wings?

or you set it free?

How Did You Get Here?

The good news?
We are not that close to the bottom,
As expected.
The bad news?
We are not that close to the bottom,
As expected.

'So...
Where are we?
And why is that both good and bad news? '

Not knowing where you are can be motivating.
Forgetting who you are and how you got there,
Is total darkness.
That's where ignorance will leave you,
In total darkness!

'So...
What does that have to do with anything? '

Turn off your flashlight!

'I will be in darkness.'

How did you get here?

'I followed you! '

And you believed I knew what I was doing?
With loss of light and without eye contact?

Did You Fall Far Enough

(Travis Tritt/Troy Seals)
As I watch you while you're sleeping
You don't know what I'm going through
Dealing with all my emotions
And wondering if your love is true
You've given me no cause to doubt you
And I know passion burns in your heart
But does that same fire keep on burning
In the hours that we spend apart
If you knew the question
That burns in my mind
Then you'd know why I worry so much
I can't help but wonder
When we fell in love Sweetheart
Did you fall far enough
There's something I feel when I touch you
And that's when I really get scared
'Cause I know there's men who would die for
The feeling I'm feeling right here
Oh I'll be tormented forever
Unless I can give my fear up
I've got to stop acting so foolish
I've tortured myself long enough
If you knew the question
That burns in my mind
Then you'd know why I worry so much
I can't help but wonder
When we fell in love Sweetheart
Did you fall far enough
If you knew the question
That burns in my mind
Then you'd know why I worry so much
I can't help but wonder
When we fell in love Sweetheart
Did you fall far enough

Did You Know..?

Did you know..

Why?
This longing
This feeling of love
so profound

Against you

I can not say
But I really feel
so profound

Did you know?

Is there anything wrong with me?

Where Did You Go?

Where did you go?
The you I used to know
Where have you gone?
I've been wondering all along
Why did you disappear?
You used to be right here
I'm left with only a part
Of the person who held my heart

Sentimental Moment Or Why Did The Baguette Cross The Road?

Don't fill up on bread
I say absent-mindedly
The servings here are huge

My son, whose hair may be
receding a bit, says
Did you really just
say that to me?

What he doesn't know
is that when we're walking
together, when we get
to the curb
I sometimes start to reach
for his hand

Did You Forget?

You come everyday,
as my night's dream..
When you come, my
heart fills to the brim.
My sleeping eyelashes,
quiver and eyeballs swim
in the sea of unknown
country with your whim.
You stride with me
in my every walk.
In my joyful days,
as my wistful luck.
I know, it's a mirage,
in the desert and
nothing but a reverie,
of day in ocean of sand.
You forgot me, and
forgot forever so to say-
Did you forget me really,
that you forgot my birthday? ? ?

You REALLY Need To find A Life To Live

'My' habits bore 'you'?
Well...
Is that fresh off the press?
Or...
Are you bragging or disgusted,
About you own activities?
And this to me you have confessed?
Or...
Should I be left feeling impressed?
Since I find what I do,
Just as exciting to me today...
As I did yesterday.
You don't mind if I ignore you,
And leave your comments to go unaddressed.
Do you?

On second thought...
Which one of my habits,
Happen to bore you the most?

'All of them.'

The you REALLY need to find a life to live.
Instead of trying to find a way to live mine.

HOW I DID YOU...by talile ali

HOW I DID YOU

TAKE ME TO THE DEPOT
TICKET PUT AWAY
TIME FOR SOME FORGIVENESS
TIME FOR SAVING FACE

HAIR SHAGGED AND NAPPY
SMELL JUST LIKE A HORSE
SO MUCH REAL DISASTER
LIFE SURE RUN ITS COURSE
HYSTERICS TURNED TO LAUGHTER
OCCASSIONALLY WORDED WITH DIVORCE

BABY, IT DON'T MATTER
HOW I'M SCREWED TODAY
SO LONG AS SOME LAUGHTER
GENTLY CROSS YOUR FACE

DOWN ON THE CANAL ONCE
ROD CLINCHED IN MY HAND
FISH NOT BITING AT ALL
REALLY DON'T GIVE A DAMN

WAY OFF IN THE DISTANCE
NINE PASS ELEVEN THINK
WAVES UPON YOUR LAPSIDE
HEAVEN IN YOU WINK

SOME SAY THEY DID VENUS
I KNOW I DID YOU
BETWEEN THEM AND ME
I HAD THE TASTIER VIEW

Did You Really Find GOD In A Fortune Cookie?

I cannot claim the cloak of innocence
for deeds I do no more, and yet... did once.
My catholic culture, quelled, still seems immense
contributing to this, , , deistic dunce.

Those years lost in the faiths which came before..
entrusting in the tales of those who care(?) .
Enlightened and yet frightened by the lore
of folk who read the stars and said, 'Beware'.

'If I am real, ... the voice within your head,
what kind of test or jest could I have planned? '
How many meanings hide in the UNsaid?
A 'God' would surely help us, .. understand?

I ask with no real hope for your reply...
'You dare to question? '.... If...the question's...WHY!

You Really Used Me

You declared you loved me
Your behaviour affirmed love for me
I invested my trust in you
For I believed you deserve it

After coming this far
Having crossed many rivers
Braved several rugged mountains
And my dreams seemed to come true
You vanished from my life
Without any ceremony

What did I do wrong?
Where did I go wrong?
Can true love submit such suddenly?

This doesn't make sense
We looked a perfect pair
We stayed like an ideal couple
You pledged a future with me
I placed you central to my future
Everything seem perfectly on course

When my dreams looked within reach
You vanished from my life
Without any ceremony
You really used me

You never loved me
You were just pretending
I was a ladder to your heaven
A handy train to your haven
You really used me

How Did You Know

VERSE 1
I remember so well
The day that you came into my life
You asked for my name
You had the most beautiful smile

VERSE 2
My life started to change
I'd wake up each day feeling alright
With you right by my side
Makes me feel things will work out just fine
[ Lyrics from: http: //www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/g/gary_valenciano/how _did_you_know.html ]
CHORUS
How did you know
I needed someone like you in my life
That there was an empty space in my heart
You came at the right time in my life

VERSE 3
I'll never forget
How you brought the sun to shine in my life
And took all the worries and fears that I had
I guess what I'm really trying to say
It's not everyday that someone like you comes my way
No words can express how much I love you

Repeat Chorus & then VERSE 3

Did You Say You Make It On The Stairs?

did i really hear you right?
making love on the stairs
and then the boy
comes surprisingly
asking both of you

what are you both doing
on the stairs
both of you naked
while he pumps
on you
like one ever hungry
lover?

how shameful!

well, okay,
the boy is your son
and the man
is your husband

was the bed broken?
or the stairs
too exciting?

was the marriage
too boring?

well, ok,
i understand,
you split with him

could be the
staggering steps on the stairs
could be that the boy
finally understands

could be that the bed
is not that warm

you split for good
and uhuh?
so you are now free
at last

from those stairs
from the bed

and the boy has to make
the inevitable choice
between pa and ma

the stairs he will always remember
anyhow
yes, the boy not the pa

Where Did You Sleep Last Night? (live)

My girl, my girl
Don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
In a patch, in a patch
Where the sun never shines
And my body shivered all night
My girl, my girl
Don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
In a patch, in a patch
Where the sun never shines
And my body shivered all night
Her husband was a hard working man
Killed a mile and a half from here
His head was found on a driving wheel
And his body never was found
My girl, my girl
Don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
In a patch, in a patch
Where the sun never shines
My body shivered all night
My girl, my girl
Where will you go
To a place where the cold wind blows
To a patch, to a patch
Where the sun never shines
And my body shivers all night
My girl, my girl
Don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
In a patch, in a patch
Where the sun never shines
And my body shivered all night
