Poet Introduction
Shaddoww A Vega
Ceaseless Sea
I keep dreaming a dream
Of calico eyes
That stir a mystery
That swells inside
Like the rolling waves
In a ceaseless sea
I see a man, an unknown sir
Who gives me memories
That never were
Those thoughts... are blurred
This stranger who shadows me
In this ceaseless sea
I dream of this mans embrace
As my lips still burn
From the kiss he never gave
And the ghost of his arms
Never wrapped around me
Calming as the ceaseless sea
Of calico eyes
That stir a mystery
That swells inside
Like the rolling waves
In a ceaseless sea
I see a man, an unknown sir
Who gives me memories
That never were
Those thoughts... are blurred
This stranger who shadows me
In this ceaseless sea
I dream of this mans embrace
As my lips still burn
From the kiss he never gave
And the ghost of his arms
Never wrapped around me
Calming as the ceaseless sea

You
Are you there
Are you here
With me
While I am
Alone
In this
Strange place
With it's lightened darkness
And it's fog, thickened
I can't see you
I can't hear you
I feel you
When you are near
As the pulse
Of my body
Works harder
Just to be
With you
In this moment
Are you here
With me
While I am
Alone
In this
Strange place
With it's lightened darkness
And it's fog, thickened
I can't see you
I can't hear you
I feel you
When you are near
As the pulse
Of my body
Works harder
Just to be
With you
In this moment

That Girl
I'm that girl
That you passed in the hall
You didn't notice
Because I was invisible
I'm that girl
That you interrupted
You didn't notice
Because I was never heard
I'm that girl
That was cast aside
You didn't notice
Because I wasn't important
I'm that girl
That you forgot about
You didn't notice
Because I was forgettable
I'm that girl
That was left behind
You didn't notice
Because I wasn't first choice
I'm that girl
That was laughed at
You didn't notice
Because I was...
That you passed in the hall
You didn't notice
Because I was invisible
I'm that girl
That you interrupted
You didn't notice
Because I was never heard
I'm that girl
That was cast aside
You didn't notice
Because I wasn't important
I'm that girl
That you forgot about
You didn't notice
Because I was forgettable
I'm that girl
That was left behind
You didn't notice
Because I wasn't first choice
I'm that girl
That was laughed at
You didn't notice
Because I was...

Betrayer
We whisper in your ear
All your wishes
All your fears
We're in your dreams
We see you smile
We are why you're in denial
We saw you out in prostitution
Now you're in the institution
Believe it well
You're in Hell
Preparing for the prosecution
Betrayer of your constitution
All your wishes
All your fears
We're in your dreams
We see you smile
We are why you're in denial
We saw you out in prostitution
Now you're in the institution
Believe it well
You're in Hell
Preparing for the prosecution
Betrayer of your constitution

Inside Myself
Screaming and screaming against the cold walls
The walls are bare
I just can't bear
Can't bear the feelings I've created
Created inside myself
Crying and crying against the damp sheets
The sheets are soiled
I have soiled
Soiled away the memories
The memories inside myself
Beating and beating at the impenetrable door
The door is entrapping
I've created the trap
Trapped away the sorrow
The sorrow inside myself
Cursing and cursing against myself
Wishing to destroy myself ...
The walls are bare
I just can't bear
Can't bear the feelings I've created
Created inside myself
Crying and crying against the damp sheets
The sheets are soiled
I have soiled
Soiled away the memories
The memories inside myself
Beating and beating at the impenetrable door
The door is entrapping
I've created the trap
Trapped away the sorrow
The sorrow inside myself
Cursing and cursing against myself
Wishing to destroy myself ...

I Wish That I Could Tell You
I wish that I could tell you
Of the hidden thoughts spoken through my eyes
Of all the secrets that I keep deep inside
I wish that I could tell you
When my body chills with your every touch
When I fear my words may be too much
I wish that I could tell you
How long I've felt this way
How I think of you everyday
I wish that I could tell you
That I melt inside with every kiss
That when I'm away it's you I miss
I wish that I could tell you
How much I've longed for your embrace
How often that I've shyed away my face...
Of the hidden thoughts spoken through my eyes
Of all the secrets that I keep deep inside
I wish that I could tell you
When my body chills with your every touch
When I fear my words may be too much
I wish that I could tell you
How long I've felt this way
How I think of you everyday
I wish that I could tell you
That I melt inside with every kiss
That when I'm away it's you I miss
I wish that I could tell you
How much I've longed for your embrace
How often that I've shyed away my face...

So They Say
I live my life everyday. So they say. Submitted to the droned tic of my clock. My constant reminder of when I am supossed to be in some prepared destination. It calls out that yet another second has been stolen. Always stolen, from this molded entity.
Even since childhood we are all exposed into some irrational identity that is expected to be embraced. I've always been too eloquent to obey to those suggestions. I can not allow myself to become a wasted entaglement of creativity, as I am unable to contain the overwhelming revelations of an awakened concealed awareness.

The Crazy Sane
Walking alone in crowded halls
Looking at nothing but everything around us
Talking only amongst ourselves
We are the crazy sane
Helpless to others
Forgotten souls
To ourselves we are all the same
We are the crazy sane
Different to others
The wise to each other
All bonded as one
We are the crazy sane
Not the average playmate
Not the normal being
We of each are different
We are the crazy sane
Looking at nothing but everything around us
Talking only amongst ourselves
We are the crazy sane
Helpless to others
Forgotten souls
To ourselves we are all the same
We are the crazy sane
Different to others
The wise to each other
All bonded as one
We are the crazy sane
Not the average playmate
Not the normal being
We of each are different
We are the crazy sane

It's such a shame
You're not a friend
To whom I came
To talk, to depend
I fear you'll laugh
Take me for a joke
Get smirks on my behalf
And leave my spirits broke
Sometimes I feel
You're just a show
Made to conceal
An augmented ego
But deep inside
There is a wish
To never hide
And end your anguish
Yet something's wrong
I can not see
It's something strong
What could it be?
You fear my touch
And push away
But not too much
So it's okay
A friend I need
Who'll lend a...

Dreams
I dream of silver stars
That float in the sea
That glitter and shimmer
And wink at me
I dream of a friend
So bright and so true
That sits and listens
And comforts you
I dream of blue eyes
That see through your soul
That share the secrets
That I will hold
I dream of a cat
Of black and white
She lays and protects
My dreams at night
I dream of a boy
So smart and so young
Heading off to school
Where his life has begun
I dream of a man
Who smiles when he's sad
With the gentle touch...
That float in the sea

So smart and so young
Heading off to school
Where his life has begun
I dream of a man
Who smiles when he's sad

To Be
When the world was dark and cold
When the light just never burned
In a time where true love, I could not hold
Bad luck and no hope would not turn
I thought that my light was lost
Gone from me forever
I tried to find it, at any cost
But my only thought was never
For years I suffered and searched
To learn from my mistakes
But he path got worn and besmirched
Too much to bear and take
Then one day I turned around
And met your life full eyes
I felt the tears come down my face
As I began to cry
It was that day I...
When the light just never burned

For years I suffered and searched
To learn from my mistakes
But he path got worn and besmirched
Too much to bear and take

I felt the tears come down my face
As I began to cry

The Dance
I sway
Like a flame
Moving
With the thirst
For air
A tiny dancing bit
Of life
All around me
The symphony
Of the liquid Earth
Which is the sea
Surrounded
By the boundless blend
Of animation
Always moving
Always pulsing
Dancing the waltz
Of life and death
That binds us all
As one
Like a flame
Moving
With the thirst
For air
A tiny dancing bit
Of life
All around me
The symphony
Of the liquid Earth
Which is the sea
Surrounded
By the boundless blend
Of animation
Always moving
Always pulsing
Dancing the waltz
Of life and death
That binds us all
As one
