THE RAVENSTOOTH

ravenstooth — Sat, 30 Oct 2010 06:11:28 +0000

Hey now. Here we go

Show the way.

Whatever we may

You’ve seen it all before.

The time will intend

No time to pretend

Where is my friend

Hanging inside my head

This ravenstooth will shout and bend

To freak like nothing flys again

I saw what I thought love dead ends

I will whisper all my fears to hide again

A rippled river to be clear

Somewhere the cloud stands near

Looking inside life, like there’s only fear

As I wave with tears

Time is waving

I remember this one day I was falling off a cliff

And the days were like waterfalls counting sleep

They stopped the record player from skipping

And when the signs fell limped in cotton sheets

The bottom crawled like empty covered tents

Silently mocking deer and playful windy ridge tops

Where are the wretched outskirts where we collide

Where are the ghosts that inspired moth’s flight

I watched the drowning noise bellow hot lips ragged

Nothing in the dawn walked through the ancient prism

The stranger touched the brim of town

The night became like day in his eyes black as wisdom’s pain

He opened the door to the shallow realm

And conspired the dead ridged rain to bathe beauty

Echo’s- past tense

Wake up- I wish to thrill you

Motions- drain my loose cock’s dying edge

All night long with these fuck throttled levitation

There is a vision that can dance the lust

There is a vision that will fuck with us

There is someone who can break the trust

Could just look watching into the dust

Could be that the dream was never lost

Was never- dream was a- was never lost

Drum on…

My time is now dead

No sense to break the bend

Let it never befriend

The sun will never end

This ravenstooth will become free

As my feathers drop behind me

A shrill comes after your soft sighs

If you find one along the uncertain way

Look on up and you may hear me say

In my omen that shouts and cries

And now the Ravenstooth dies…

Good-bye

CLOSE MY EYES

ravenstooth — Fri, 29 Oct 2010 05:03:44 +0000

I will close my eyes

And be free…

KATYDID

ravenstooth — Thu, 28 Oct 2010 06:58:54 +0000

Watch the trees begin to freeze now

Like the shiver lose in my spine

I have begun to live a new life

And this time it’s all mine

Katydid…yeah

Katydid…

You sing into your world now

With your music itches my mind

I can call on your guitar’s sound

To soothe what I may need to find

We could stop, the blues

But what would we say

And then we won’t find our way

Katydid you’ve got what no one can do

The freedom to sing all those blues

Watch the frost begin to dew now

With the sunshine smiling at you

I can see the morning corning

As the wonder that gave you that hue

We could stop, the blues

But what would you say

And then we won’t find our way

Katydid you’ve got what no one can do

The freedom to sing all those blues

The voice to shout out those tunes

Katydid…

WHAT HAVE I FOUND

ravenstooth — Wed, 27 Oct 2010 06:15:34 +0000

What have I found

Inside this box

Never believed

My world just rocks

I held on so long

To ripped and rotten

And what I have found has made me forgotten

She smiles inside my visions and dreams

I hold her there to seal the seams

We live so far away from our love

There must be something we can think of

To make the distance become a walks width

And make the time away easier to miss

What have I found

Was love in this box

Now I believe

Her world rocks

I’ll hold her for ever-long

To sip her sweet smile

For what I have found will be with me every mile

LIFE ENSUE

ravenstooth — Tue, 26 Oct 2010 06:42:32 +0000

I feel frozen into her bright blue eyes

Changeling as the silent wings cry

She wore my best armor peeled and forgotten

Hammered in trusting residual, much too rotten

I stood there like an innocent boy

She held me so sturdy past all joy

I teared up while she took over my soul

When I sprang from my youth she swallowed me whole

there was nothing else I wanted to do

So I nudged her freezing winter deja’vu

And we saw the rest of our life ensue

Like lovers do…

SENSUAL WORLD

ravenstooth — Mon, 25 Oct 2010 06:14:01 +0000

I listen to his every word… word

His talk just makes me feel so good… oh so good

I let him into my sensual world, oh my word

He drives me to my aching. oh have you heard

Like storm that crash into my sea… just for me

He knows the reasons I come to be. Oh he sets me free

I let him into my sensual world, oh my world

He holds me til I feel like I’m his girl, my heart just twirls

I could belong to him forever…I’m so sure

But from afar I see he’s off in search for more

The feelings touch my inner core, please hold me more

I could belong to him forever… I’m so sure

I let him into my sensual world, oh my word

My heart flies as high as birds, when I’m his girl

I think of him as my forever… that’s for sure

I listen to his every word… oh his word

His love will make me feel so good… oh so good

I hold him inside my sensual world, oh My world

He drives me to my aching. Oh he has heard

As my fire burns, my lust inflames me…just you see

He holds the reasons why I come to be. Oh he sets me free

URSIDAE LUMBERS IN

ravenstooth — Sat, 23 Oct 2010 06:45:14 +0000

Fire freaks on fallen forests

Soon it will fly forever

This ravage empire dwells soulful and weakening

Water washes the hardwoods cool

The creatures climb back into the scorched earth

Plants regain their clench and open the sun

The silent smoke floats ghostly over moss

Rain has taken back the power

Shall we awe at the blackened bark

Hallow and tepid

Solemnly we walk without a sound

As the loose obedience traps timeless occurrence

Vented as reasons trail flightless and draped

Hear the ominous lament

Widowed and pleasured

Ursidae lumbers in

Piglike and plunk

Vestibular

Nettling

Augerist

Continued life

Forage

SAIL INTO OUR SKY

ravenstooth — Fri, 22 Oct 2010 06:21:46 +0000

If I seem divine, well you should see… all of me, all of me

In the shadow of your eyes is a thought of me… of me, of me

As the wind blows your hair, without a care… you’d see, you’d see

And the windows in your mind, let in our time… so free, so free

Thoughts become so precise

The river lends sounds to me

Your eyes are soft and they entice

A love that I have longed to see… I see…

AAAHHHAAAHHHAAAHHH…

With your heart you fill my world with tranquility… into me, into me

As you slip into my soul, for eternity… you and me, you and me

I can feel you in my life, it is meant to be… lovingly, lovingly

As we sail into our sky, in our infinity… it’s destiny, destiny

MY INVISIBLE EYES

ravenstooth — Thu, 21 Oct 2010 06:42:11 +0000

My invisible eyes now can see
They dream of light and discovery
Once they saw a meadow serene
And across the valley a mountain stream

I opened them, for the birds had a song
They would sing it to me all day long
Their tune sent shivers down my spine
I would hum along with them in my mind

I can touch the sight without loosing my way
That’s when I woke and saw you one day
My invisible eyes lent out the world
And you smiled as my thoughts unfurled

You kissed me with your wilderness glow
Then dance in my head like a new rainbow
Your crimson hair flying in the breeze
It’s a pleasure to see you and apiece

Now spoken, our life stories unravel
Like time was uncovered in our loose gravel
As we kick at the cobbles that mean the most
Then pick up the unique stones we really boast

My invisible eyes come out to be seen
As we strike out into this world of green
Our sights we’ll add to our pile of rocks
Each one telling our memory as it talks

We could believe in something that we hold dear
Together a new start is nothing we should fear
The light draws into these dreams we think of
For my eyes aren’t invisible when they see love
