THE RIDEYou won't see it coming and you won't see it gobut something is about to happen and you won't even knowIt will come at you fast and leave you slowyou will feel like you've been in a brawl standing toe to toeYou try to get up and it knocks you downyou try to go right and it spends you aroundYou try to go forward and it pushes you backyou try to keep it taught but all you get is slackThere seems to be no reason and there seems to be no rhymeyou try to see why but the reason why you cannot findYou don't know where you are and you've lost all track of timeyou seem to be so dizzy and you think you've lost your mindYou don't know what's right and you don't know what's wrongyou don't know where you are and don't know where you belongYou don't know if it's daytime, you don't know if it's nightyou thought you had things in focus but seem to be losing sightYou got lost in a loving starethen looked around and no one was thereHow can love feel so good then leave you in such painfirst things look so sunny, then all you get is rainThey say to move on that time heals all woundsbut in a place that is void of all time wounds don't heal too soonYou keep going, going straight to hell on this road that never bendsyou pray that you can turn around but this road keeps going and never endsYou thought you were booked on a boat full of loveholding on to someone you thought was sent from the stars aboveInstead you boarded a train with no tracksit's headed toward the sun and it ain't coming backIf love comes and grabs you and takes you awaydon't fight it because there's nothing you can do, nothing you can sayNo matter what you do, everything's been done everything's been triedall you can do when love has control, is sit back and go for the rideSTANLEY HENDRIX7/20/09
I WANT TO HOLD YOUI want to hold you in my arms while you sleepI want to hold you while you creep into your dreams so deepwith you next to me everything feels so rightI want to hold you all through the nightI want to hold you 'till the moon stops shining throughI want to hold you 'till there is no morning dewI want to hold you 'till the sun turns blueI want to hold you 'till one and one is no longer twoI want to hold you 'till the mountains turn to hillsI want to hold you 'till time stands stillI want to hold you 'till hell gets coldI want to hold you 'till the truth be toldI want to hold you whether you're wrong or rightI want to hold you whenever we fightI want to hold you 'till the anger is goneI want to hold you 'till you sing your songI want to hold you when you're blue and sadI want to hold you when things make you madI want to hold you whenever you cryso I can dry your tears from your eyesI want to hold you whether it's early or lateI want to hold you 'till the birds and bees no longer mateI want to hold you and never be aloneI want to hold you 'till the swallows of Capistrano no longer come homeI want to hold you 'till the cock no longer crowsI want to hold you 'till the farmers no longer reap what they sewI want to hold you 'till eternity is nearI want to hold you 'till there is no fearI want to hold you 'till there's no stars in the skyI want to hold you 'till the birds no longer flyI want to hold you 'till there are no clouds up aboveI want to hold you 'till you say you're in loveSTANLEY HENDRIX10/30/08(JUST SHARING MY POEMS) I HAVE MORE IN MY BLOG
