Intensity has taught me so, And showed me sights of loss, That stuck within my aching mind, Reminding of it's cost. I still desire every touch, And every...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/257550How The West Was Won He was a jumped up little cowboy, Set upon a paper trail, Of a quest that led to conflict, And getting anthrax in the mail. But his friends all ran to join him, When the White house made demands, 'Coz it was one sure way for Tony, To hide the skid marks in his pants. And when...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/257209English Rose All I ever wanted, Was a little English Rose, Someone I could talk to, Someone who would know... Just what I'm thinking, When I'm feeling down, Who'd stop me from drinking, And bring me around. Somebody who's smile, Would put a lump in my throat, Who rains me with kisses, And fills...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/254279Don't Let The Cat Out Of The Bag Off the bus she stepped. She skipped lightly, Like a ballerina, Over to this tightly lipped youth. He stood dumbfounded, with a cat in a bag. What was in the bag, she could not say. Why he had the cat, and Why he did not let the cat go, he could not say. (There....http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/251868She Flew Away She climbed up on a cliff, And flew away, She didn't tell a soul, that she was leaving, You can't turn back the clock, To yesterday, And heal the wounds of all, The hearts still grieving. It's funny how some lives, Get thrown away, By people on the verge, Of nearly being. I can't...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/250843When I Think Of You When I think of you, something burns inside, With a passion which can't be controlled, When I think of you, I can hear your voice, A sound more prescious than gold. When I think of you, my heart skips a beat, And my pulse rate simply flys, When I think of you I turn to jelly,...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/250544You Stand Alone I have been studying how I may compare thee to A field of buttercups. But since their colour fades, And their petals wilt, I cannot do it. I have been studying how I may compare thee to A bed of roses. But since their beauty needs to be nurtured, And their stems are sharp, I...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/250508Then I Hear Your Voice When I'm not with you, the whole world seems to know. The mornings grow cold and all that is living freezes along with my heart. Everything is still. Not a mouse stirs. Time goes by and snow begins to fall, and covers up any life that may have existed before. (At least the...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/250460Playing For Keeps All the lessons I learned in life, That made the man you met, Got left out in the wilderness, How quickly I'd forget, My simple traits of tact and care, Which made you fond of me, For painful words and hurtful acts, And fights and jealousy. I took the joyous times we spent, For...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/250294'Till Death Do Us Part I hope that when we're grey and old, My hand is still in yours, And the fire that's burning deep within, Still burns forever more. And when we can no longer walk, For our legs have all grown frail, We'll reminisce on days gone by, And gayly sit and smile. We'll gaize into...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/250292Chamber Of Secrets Think like a genius Act like a fool, Stand at the bar Or pull up a stool. The world keeps on turning If your'e here or you're not, Don't waste time wanting And accept what youv'e got. Care for your mother Have a drink with your dad, Learn from the bad times And the good times...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/250112Give Me Light 'Oh give me light And take away the dark, 'Coz darkness is The only light I see. 'Oh teach me right And show a caring heart, 'Coz caring isn't Something I can be. 'Oh guide me from The error of my ways, And show me how A man's supposed to be. 'Oh lead me through The long and lonely...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/249791Kissing The Wrong Pair Of Lips I've made mistakes in life, For which I'm certainly not proud, I've traded opportunities, To live the here and now. I've opened cans of worms, And watched them squirm from my control, I've spoken up too often, Not hearing what was told. My feet have sometimes grown,...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/248933Love Restrained I have never said that I love you, Though it keeps me awake every night, I've been waiting for the chance to say it, And pick the moment that's right. If I had, I would have told you, How beautifull and sweet you are, Though your present love and attatchment, Prevented me going...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/248557Just Say The Word If I cannot be your friendly love, I'd love to be your friend, And sacrifice my feelings for you, Untill my life should end. Though I must admit I'd find it hard, Knowing I wasn't around, To hear you laugh to see you smile, As in my tears I drown. Though these tears are for...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/Stewart_Harding4227/245357The Tears Of A Clown When friends of mine do ask me, 'Stewart, how are you today?' Shall I be strong and bite my lip, Keeping my sorrow at bay? Shall T wear my mask for the rest of the world, Not letting them see me down. Say 'hey I'm fine, don't worry about me.' As I shed the tears of a clown....
