I've been ready for love for a long time, but would not allow it in. I pushed, I shoved, ignored it. There have been times where I have scared it away. My friend, my lover, my guide, my owner. On May 16th, I have accepted his collar and have pledged to be his. What a road we have been on to get to this place where we are. I'm so very grateful to all who have been a part of it and a part of my life.
Update:
As of May 16, I no longer am under the Tiger's collar and they have transferred my collar to MasterofSparks. I wish to thank my Tiger for the many years of love, guidance, of friendship. We will continue to be the best of friends and I will always have a very special place in my heart for him. Thank you.
Some how this gentle being with a huge heart, the never ending patience, and a mind like a steel trap found a way past the walls. A friendship built, the path laid, the journey well begun..... He is my Tiger. I am his rat. I wear his collar, whether you can see it makes littler matter.... for it is always there and ever present. If you should doubt, the Tiger's mark is there and it runs deep. I love you my Tiger. ... your Rat
I am ready for love
Why are you hiding from me
I'd quickly give my freedom
To be held in your captivity
I am ready for love
All of the joy and the pain
And all the time that it takes
Just to stay in your good grace
Lately I've been thinking
Maybe you're not ready for me
Maybe you think I need to learn maturity
They say watch what you ask for
Cause you might receive
But if you ask me tomorrow
I'll say the same thing
I am ready for love
Would you please lend me your ear?
I promise I won't complain
I just need you to acknowledge I am here
If you give me half a chance
I'll prove this to you
I will be patient, kind, faithful, and true
To a man who loves music
A man who loves art
Respect's the spirit world
And thinks with his heart
I am ready for love
If you'll take me in your hands
I will learn what you teach
And do the best that I can
Iam ready for love
Here with an offering of
My voice
My eyes
My soul
My mind
Tell me what is enough
To prove I am ready for love
I am ready.....
When looking upon these words keep this in mind........we must select a label here, but never attempt to label me. i am ever changing, ever growing, ever learning. If you watch long enough i will bloom before your eyes. Wings of gossamer will unfurl, spread wide and then take flight. The imp will become the angel. The darkness will become light. The death of a world can bring about the paradise.
Listen to the words with an open heart, an open mind, and let the music touch your soul.

We have reached a new level. Misunderstandings are just that. Only through open, honest communication can they be resolved. Rough and rocky roads become the smooth path again. This makes for a stronger bond and lets us know what we are made of. Thank you my Tiger for helping me to make us stronger, better, wiser, better.

Part and Parcel, all and everything....there is not one ounce that is not his. More than a mind, a heart that overflows, a spirit that soars. Tethered, cherished, loved, and kept...more than any pup deserves, but relishes in it. Thank you Eric for all you give me and all that we are. To the life we are building, and the love we have.

If you have never had one, if you have never been fortunate enough to be close enough, or have had that person that was so endearing to you that they were more you than you yourself. I almost weep for you. In life we have twists, turns, paths, and pitfalls. There are many things, people, and lessons along all of these that i have mentioned. Its what we make of these that define who and what we are, not the titles, not the money, not what we wear. I state all of this because i label myself. Yes, i stated it.... " label myself," lucky in the fact that i have been given the opportunity to take part in so many lessons and have so many fine teachers. For the Tiger who stands in constant guard over the ever wriggling Rat, take heed, please. I do hear, listen, understand, value, and consume all that you give me my wonderful friend, companion, teacher, love, and guide. For all that you do and all that you will, namaste great one.

He was gone for a week, but it felt like eternity. Was he really gone, no. He lingers in the mind, in the heart, and on the tongue. He is always there surrounding me, but it is greed that i yearn for more. Hunger for his presence, long for his touch, lust for the moment when he will speak yet again....and then his smile breaks the darkness.
welcome home Tiger

Incompatible, it don't matter though
'Cause someone's bound to hear my cry
Speak out if you do, you're not easy to find
Is it possible Mr. Lovable is already in my life??
Right in front of me or maybe you're in disguise
Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why i'm on my own
If there's a soulmate for everyone
Here we are again, circles never end
How do i find the perfect fit?
There's enough for everyone
But i'm still waiting in line
Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows hot to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why i'm on my own
If there's a soulmate for everyone
If there's a soulmate for everyone
Most relationships seem so transitory
They're all good but no the permanent one
Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Oh, somebody tell me why i'm on my own
If there's a soulmate for everyone
There is a soulmate for everyone. I'm thankful that i have found mine. I have been blessed over the years with many close friends. One in particuliar who watches over me very closely, and i'm very grateful for this. A rock, my wings, a hand up when needed, the voice of reason, the best friend......thank you. |

This time
I wonder what it feels like
To find the one in this life
The one we all dream of
But dreams just aren't enough
So i'll be waiting for the real thing
I'll know it by the feeling
The moment when we're meeting
Will play out like a scene straight off the silver screen
So I'll be holdin' my breath
Right up 'til the end
Until that moment when
I find the one that i'll spend forever with!
'Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There's gotta be somebody for me like that
'Cause nobody wants to go it on their own
And everyone wants to know they're not alone
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There's gotta be somebody for me out there
Tonight
Out on the street, out in the moonlight
And, damn it, this feels too right
It's just like deja vu
Me standin' here with you
So I'll be holdin' my breath
Could this be the end?
Is it that moment when
I find the one that i'll spend forever with?
Oh! You can't give up
When you're lookin' for a diamond in the rough
Because you'll never know when it shows up
Make sure you're holdin' on
'Cause it could be the one, the one you're waiting on
Nobody wants to go it on their own
And everyone wants to know they're not alone
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There's gotta be somebody for me out there
Nobody wants to be the last one there
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There's gotta be somebody for me out there

I'll do anything for you.
For you i'll change the world.
No more wars, no more hurt, no more pain.
You showed me how to love again, for you i'd change the world
If I could change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
Oh you would think my love was really something good, baby
If i could change
If i could change
If i could change the world, the world, the world
Oh, there would be no more wars
opportunity knockin' on doors for us, for us.
Nobody ain't known each other.
Fighters turn into lovers for us, for us.
Oh, and when the moonlight turns to sunshine
Everybody waking up to a better dream.
Cause everybody need what they want,
But don't want what they need.
Lets talk about unity
If i could change the world
Oh i would be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good baby
If i could
If i could
If i could change the world
If i could change the world i'd order
For the line to be erased at the border this day.
Everyone deserves an opportunity. there would be no new world order if nobody wouldn't never got slaughtered that way.
That means somuch more love and unity.
Daughters close to thy mothers.
Sons raised by their fathers today.
A good family ain't nothing greater.
Raise crumbs hate crumbs that never exist.
I'll turn every bullet to a hershey's kiss and we can eat away our fears..
If i could change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good baby
If i could
If i could
If i could change the world
There would be no self hate.
We will all have to love everything about ourselves, so we can love everyone else. Nothing would hold us down because we'll all walk around with a smile and never frown and that would remove the clown. They'll be no more self loathing, everyone will know in their hearts that they're just fine and thats when the lights gonna shine. Everyone will understand that in order to have some peace you must believe the best in you.
If i could change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good baby
If i could
If i could
If i could change the world the world the world the world......baby if i could change ....the world
and i can

If i should die before i wake
its 'cause you took my breath away
losing you is like living in a world with no air
Oh
I'm here alone, didn't wanna leave
my heart won't move, its incomplete
if there was a way that i can make you understand, but how do you expect me
to live alone with just me 'cause my world
revolves around you?
Its so hard for me to breathe
Tell me how i'm suppose to breathe with no air
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
It's how i feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gonna be without me
If you ain't here, i just can't breathe
It's no air, no air
no air, air.....ohhhhhhh
I walked, i ran, i jumped, i flew
Right off the ground to float to you
There's no gravity to hold me down for real
But somehow i'm still alive inside
You took my breath, but i survived
I don't know how, but i don't even care
So how do you expect me
to live alone with just me
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe
Tell me how i'm suppose to breathe with no air
Can't live, can't breathe with no aire
Its how i feel whenever you ain't there
Its no air, no air

Is it getting better, or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame.
You say one love, one life ( one life )
It's one need in the night
One love ( one love ), get to shave it
Leaves you darling, if you don't care for it
Did i disappoint you, or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love, and you want me to go without.
Well it's too late, tonight to drag the past out into the light. We're one, but we're not the same.
We get to carry each other, carry each other One..........
Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come here to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus to the lepers in your head ?
Well, did i ask too much, more than a lot ?
You gave me nothing, now it's all i got.
We're one, but we're not the same. Well we, hurt each other then we do it again.
You say
Love is a temple
Love is a higher law
Love is a temple
Love is a higher law
You ask me to enter
Well then you make me crawl
And i can't be holding on
To what you got when all you got is hurt
One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters and my
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One......
One love

Don't look, don't look, the shadows breathe.
Whispering me away from you.
Don't wake at night to watch her sleep.
You know that you will always lose this trembling adored tousled bird mad girl...
But every night i burn
But every night i call your name
every night i burn
every night i fall again
Oh don't talk of love, the shadows purr, murmurring me away from you.
Don't talk of worlds that never were.
The end is all that's ever true.
There's nothing you can ever say, nothing you can ever do...
Still every night i scream your name
Every night i burn
waiting for my only friend
Every night i burn
Waiting for the world to end
Just paint your faice the shadows smile, slipping me away from you.
Oh it doesn't matter how you hide.
Findyou if we're wanting to.
So slide back down and close your eyes.
Sleep a while.
You must be tired.....
But every night I burn
Every night i call your name
Every night i burn
Every night i fall again
Every night i burn
Scream the animal scream
Every night i burn
Dream the crow black dream
Dream the crow black dream..... |

Like a gift from the heavens, it was easy to tell. It was love from above, that could save me from hell. She had fire in her soul it was easy to see, how the devil himself could be pulled out of me. There were drums in the air as she started to dance. Every soul in the room keeping time with their hands. And we sang :
Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,
and the voices bang like the angels sing,
We're singing
ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,
and we danced on intoh the night,
ay oh ay oh
ay oh ay oh,
and we danced on into the night,
Like a piece to the puzzle that falls into place, You could tell how we felt from the look on our faces, we was spinning in circles with the moon in our eyes, the room left them moving between you and I, We forgot where we were and we lost track of time, And we sang to the wind as we danced through the night and we sang
Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay
and the voices band like the angels sing
we're singing
ay oh ay oh ay oh ay
and we danced on into the night
ay oh ay oh
ay oh ay oh
and we danced on into the night
ay oh ay oh
ay oh ay oh
and we danced on into the night
Like a gift from the heavens, it was easy to tell, It was love from above, that could save me from hell, she had fire in her soul it was easy to see, how the devil himself could be pulled out of me, there were drums in the air as she started to dance, every soul in the room keeping time with their hands

Blue skies
Smiling at me
Nothing but blue skies
Do i see
Bluebirds singing
A song
Nothing but bluebirds
All day long
Never saw the sun shining so bright
Never saw things going so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love, my my how they fly
Blue days
All of them gone
Nothing but blue skies
From now on |

The expert traveler leaves no footprints.
The expert speaker makes no mispronunciations.
The expert in calculation needs no calculator.
The expert in closing things needs no lock, yet not one can open what has been closed.
The expert in binding uses no knots, yet no one can pull apart what has been bound.
The expert in caring for things never wastes anything.
The expert at helping people never abandons anyone.
These are the paths to enlightenment.
Those who arrive at their destination teach those who are still on the path, while those still on the part ar sources of wisdom for the teachers. |

Overpraising the gifted leads to contentiousness. Overvaluing the precious invites stealing. Craving the desirable loses contentment.
The natural person desires without craving and acts without excess.

If you understand others, you are astute.
If you understand yourself, you are insightful.
If you master others, you are uncommonly forceful.
If you master yourself you have uncommon inner strength.
If you know when you have enough, you are wealthy.
If you carry your intentions to completion, you are resolute.
If you find your roots and nourish them, you will know longevity.
If you live a long creative life, you will leave an eternal legacy. |

I have never been compelled to do a journal entry but decided to share this.
There are four types of leaders:
The best leader is indistinguishable from the will of those who select him.
The next best leader enjoys the love and praise of the people.
The poor leader rules through coercion and fear. And the worst leader is a tyrant despised by the multitudes who are the victims of his power.
What a world of difference among these leaders! In the last two types, what is done is without sincerity or trust - only coercion. In the second type, there is harmony between the leader and the people. In the first type, whatever is done happens so naturally that no one presumes to take the credit! |
