The warmth of your soul
Has touched my heart
And poured new life
Into a lonely place


Magenta

The irony of sensitvity....

The sensitive child is seen as something precious,
To treasure and nurture like a delicate bloom,
An asset to their fragile soul.


Time turns and moves on.


The sensitive adult is seen as a burden, an irritant,
To crush and conform to acceptability,
Making every other person's life easier,
Other than the destroyed individual.

We all envy children their freedom of expression,
And thus continue as oppressive adults.


The irony of sensitivity.

The Soul Crushers...

This middle-age mediocrity
Does everything to stifle me
Pressure of conformity 
Smothers the enormity
Of my hatred for the ‘norm’.
The crushing of dreams
And the freedom to suppress
Should be made illegal
This mental torture
Had an infinite times over
Killed more than any gun

Soul destroyer
Devil employer
The crushing of a dream
Time killer
Blood spiller
The breaking of a heart
Learn by your mistakes?
Or be pilloried for them by those
Who say they love you.

Love me or grieve me....

Who can add music to these lyrics? 
Gotta be spunky, maybe a little punky and full of 'up yours' attitude. 

With powder, paint and dye
My soul'd forever cry
And be dissatified
With a creation cried
Out for inner love so false

What you see is
What you get
And what you get
You won't forget

A truer beauty made
Stronger not afraid
Power woman scares
A lesser man who dares
To change her 

What you see is
What you get
And what you get
You won't forget

I won't fit your 'norm'
With my oh-so-nat'ral form
Different and unique
With my beautiful physique
Thank the Goddess for that

What you see is
What you get
And what you get
You won't forget

Time and effort spent
On aesthetical regret
Living life so vain
Just is a fucking pain

I am made this way
Are you brave enough to stay?


What you see is
What you get
And what you get
You won't forget

I'm not immune to vanity
Just avoiding the insanity
Of my beauty being marred
My mind left scarred
Never meeting your expectations


What you see is
What you get
And what you get
You won't forget

Give into conditioning?
Social status positioning?
Take accepted bimbo?
Or step right into limbo
With a wild woman


What you see is
What you get
And what you get
You won't regret......
