Seven Year Ache

Seven year ache
You act like you were just born tonight
Face down in a memory but feeling all right
So who does your past belong to today?
Baby, you dont say nothing when youre feeling this way
The girls in the bars thinking, who is this guy?
But they dont think nothing when theyre telling you lies
You look so careless when theyre shooting that bull
Dont you know heartaches are heroes when their pockets are full
Tell me youre trying to cure a seven-year ache
See what else your old heart can take
The boys say, when is he gonna give us some room
The girls say, God I hope he comes back soon
[repeat intro]
Everybodys talking but you dont hear a thing
Youre still uptown on your downhill swing
Boulevards empty, why dont you come around?
Baby, what is so great about sleeping downtown?
Splitting your dice to be someone youre not
You say youre looking for something you mightve forgot

Duality

(I push my fingers into my) eyes
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
But it's made of all the things I have to take
Jesus it never ends it pushes it's way inside
If the pain goes on...
I have screamed until my veins collapsed
I've waited as my time's elapsed
Now all I do is live with so much fate
I've wished for this, I've bitched at that
I've left behind this little fact
You cannot kill what you did not create
I've gotta say what I've gotta say
And then I swear I'll go away
But I can't promise you'll enjoy the noise
I guess I'll save the best for last
My future seems like one big past
Your left with me 'cause you left me no choice
I push my fingers into my eyes
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
If the pain goes on, I'm not gonna make it!

The Bride's Prelude

“Sister,” said busy Amelotte
To listless Aloÿse;
“Along your wedding-road the wheat
Bends as to hear your horse's feet,
And the noonday stands still for heat.”
Amelotte laughed into the air
With eyes that sought the sun:
But where the walls in long brocade
Were screened, as one who is afraid
Sat Aloÿse within the shade.
And even in shade was gleam enough
To shut out full repose
From the bride's 'tiring-chamber, which
Was like the inner altar-niche
Whose dimness worship has made rich.
Within the window's heaped recess
The light was counterchanged
In blent reflexes manifold
From perfume-caskets of wrought gold
And gems the bride's hair could not hold,

The Idols

An Ode
Luce intellettual, piena d' amore

Prelude
Lo, the spirit of a pulsing star within a stone
Born of earth, sprung from night!
Prisoned with the profound fires of the light
That lives like all the tongues of eloquence
Locked in a speech unknown!
The crystal, cold and hard as innocence,
Immures the flame; and yet as if it knew
Raptures or pangs it could not but betray,
As if the light could feel changes of blood and breath
And all--but--human quiverings of the sense,
Throbs of a sudden rose, a frosty blue,
Shoot thrilling in its ray,
Like the far longings of the intellect
Restless in clouding clay.

Ache

The ache of my bosom
Is such, that it needs
The bite of your teeth
To make it ache
More and more…

And with this
Aching bosom,
My love, when I
Take leave of you,
The mark of your
Teeth - will always
Remain with me…

Making me ache
For you ~
Forever more…

This Aching Heart

This aching heart shall ache no more
For you, its ached too long
I told you my feelings clean cut and raw
And my pain you just prolong

This aching heart shall love no more
It will not ever love another
At all my efforts you just guffaw
Yet, still I love you like no other

This aching heart shall beat no more
For you, its beat too long
This is the day that I no longer abhore
myself, and learn to be strong

This aching heart shall ache no more
For my heart you are no longer in
This achign heart shall ache no more
I have a new life to begin

The Coquette, and After (Triolets)

I

For long the cruel wish I knew
That your free heart should ache for me
While mine should bear no ache for you;
For, long--the cruel wish!--I knew
How men can feel, and craved to view
My triumph--fated not to be
For long! . . . The cruel wish I knew
That your free heart should ache for me!

II

At last one pays the penalty -
The woman--women always do.
My farce, I found, was tragedy
At last!--One pays the penalty
With interest when one, fancy-free,
Learns love, learns shame . . . Of sinners two
At last ONE pays the penalty -

Drouth

Why do we pity those who weep? The pain

That finds a ready outlet in the flow

Of salt and bitter tears is blessed woe,

And does not need our sympathies. The rain

But fits the shorn field for new yield of grain;

While the red, brazen skies, the sun's fierce glow,

The dry, hot winds that from the tropics blow

Do parch and wither the unsheltered plain.

The anguish that through long, remorseless years

Looks out upon the world with no relief

No Map

Why… oh! … why
Does my heart ache so…
Why does love go…
To and fro…

Like saying good-bye…
When leaving home…
Or a voice you long to hear…
Over the phone…

Why…oh! Why
Does my heart ache so…

Love only one road…
Until you know…
Love an uncharted…
World of wonder…

A place with no map…
A place where you can meet God…

In That Dark Silent Hour

In that dark silent hour
When the wind wants power,
And in the black height
The sky wants light,
Stirless and black
In utter lack,
And not a sound
Escapes from that untroubled round:--

To wake then
In the dark, and ache then
Until the dark is gone--
Lonely, yet not alone;
Hearing another's breath
All the quiet beneath,
Knowing one sleeps near
That day held dear

And dreams held dear; but now
In this sharp moment--how
