I Still Love You

~ Frank Solanki ~ 38 Comments

We’ve had our laughs, but more frowns
We’ve had our ups, but more downs
We’ve had our highs, but more lows
But I still love you, everybody knows

We’ve had good, but more bad days
We won’t last, everybody says
So much more we have to face
But I still love you, in all the ways

I still love you, I still love you
And always I will love you

Everybody warns me, but I listen not
Everybody’s wrong, so I don’t give a thought
All their talks keep falling flat
I still love you, trust me on that

I still love you, I still love you
And always I will love you

All the signs are big and red
But I don’t let it go to my head
For I know that I have you
I still love you, will always do

I still love you, I still love you
And always I will love you

All That’s Left Is A Memory

~ Frank Solanki ~ 29 Comments

We tried our best to hold together

Through all the rainy, stormy weather

But it wasn’t meant to be

We knew we’d end up separate

As somebody else wrote our fate

You were sent away from me

Now we’re wandering on our own

In our worlds but all alone

It is such a mystery

How Love itself doesn’t have a heart

For playing such a cruel part

All that’s left is a memory

Prisoners Of The Dark

~ Frank Solanki ~ 21 Comments

When the stars are sleeping
Not a watch one is keeping
Will you call me in my dreams?
Give the world all its feeling
Lose the truth I’m appealing
I am lost or so it seems

An open mind but hollow
An open sky left to swallow
Now we know where to leave our mark
Build a wall full of sorrow
Not today not tomorrow
We are just prisoners of the dark

Like a wild bird flying
In a cage I am trying
To get my head above this stream
I can’t breathe I am lying
I can’t swim I am crying
Will you call me in your dream?

When the last hopes were taken
All the moons too were shaken
We saw Thunder and her spark
Now we wait; cold and broken
Only silence’s ever spoken
We are still the prisoners of the dark

Love, Love

~ Frank Solanki ~ 4 Comments

If the house seems to haunt us
The devil comes to daunt us
I’ll knock on her door
Till Happiness wants us
It’s love
Love love
Love love

If the world stands divided
Battlefronts have collided
We’ll stay together
For our hearts are united
If dark clouds are descendin’
Night knows no endin’
My armour and I
Your heart be defendin’
It’s love
Love love
Love love

When all hearts are dyin’
When all tongues are lyin’
I’ll keep you safe
From harm and cryin’
It’s love
Love love
Love love

Oh, oh, oh, oh
It is love
Love love love love
Love that keeps your heart beatin’
Love that keeps my lungs breathin’
Oh, oh, oh, oh
It is love
Love, love, love, love
Love that makes your heart stronger
Love that makes me hold you longer
Oh, oh, oh, oh
It is love
Love, love, love, love

You Are A Little Quake

~ Frank Solanki ~ 5 Comments

You are a little quake
Disrupting in my head
Causing my mind to unsettle
Causing thorough dread

You are a little fire
Lingering in my heart
Hurting me every now and then
Tearing me apart

You are a little storm
With a purpose to destroy
Disturbing all order in me
Taking away my joy

I am a little warrior
Not taught to ever break
No matter how hard you try
You’d only be an ache

Not Good Enough For You

~ Frank Solanki ~ 7 Comments

When I see my shadow
Hanging over me
The thoughts of yesterday come
Back to frighten me
I whisper to myself now —
What am I supposed to do?
I’m neither who you wanted
Nor good enough of you
I’m not good enough for you

There’s chaos in the winds here
I can hear them sing
Songs of melancholy
And all related things
Hang me upside down or
Give me another clue
I’m neither who you needed
Nor good enough for you
I’m not good enough for you

Moonlight bathes me with her
Silver beam of light
Fills my empty soul with
A ray of hope so bright
That I begin to question
See myself anew
I don’t need to try to
Be good enough for you
When all I am and will be
Is good enough for me

Ours Was A Winter Love

~ Frank Solanki ~ 6 Comments

Ours was a winter love
Brutal, cold and harsh
A few month into it and
We found it to be a farce

When those winter winds blew
Brutal, harsh and cold
I realised the love had gotten
A month or two too old

She Left Me

She left me
Amongst the stones
With these stones
I made my home

Wrong Wrong Wrong

~ Frank Solanki ~ 6 Comments

I thought that it’d be easy
I thought that it’d be nice
Whenever I looked into your
Smoky little eyes
Whenever I watched a movie
I always thought of you
All the songs I wrote
Were always about you
Dark clouds then they gathered
Heavily poured down
Washed away everything
That you seemed to put on
It was then that I found
That I was wrong
Wrong wrong wrong
I was wrong

I thought that it’d be fun
That’s always how it goes
Whenever you talked to me
With lips so red like rose
Everywhere I looked
I only saw your face
It stirred my heart and arms
To long for your embrace
Suddenly it grew dark
Clouds came pouring down
Washed away everything
That you always had put on
It was then I realised
That I was wrong
Wrong wrong wrong
I was wrong

How was I to see
What lay beneath the skin
When so many layers
Were covering your grin?
I owe it to the clouds
That poured all over town
With that my illusions
Were so quickly gone
When they washed away the stuff
That your face always had on
Now clearly I can see
What’s right and what is wrong
Yes now clearly I can see
That I was always wrong
Wrong wrong wrong
I was wrong

Ask For Love

~ Frank Solanki ~ 1 Comment

If we ask for love
Oh I can give love
You can give love too
But not to each other

If we want love
Oh I can have love
You can have love too
But not from each other

If we need love
Oh I can get love
You can get love too
But not for each other
