I learned to play the guitar later in life in order to fulfill a lifelong passion that I have always had. I inspired Myself using as motivation the notion that we ONLY LIVE ONCE; Therefore, We need no other reason to tackle a goal other than our own happiness along with The Happiness of Those We Love.

What If We Could [Blue October Cover] ~By Roland~

What if we could
Put our lives on
Hold and meet some
Where inside of the world
I would meet you
Would you meet me?

On a park bench
On a skyscrape
On a mountain
Oh yeah, whatever it takes
I would meet you
Would you meet me?

I'm glad to say that we've met
But I'm sad to say that the circumstances where
On our side

So go on
Go on be your own
Go on be your own star

What if we could?
Where would we go?
If it felt right
Would you want me to know
I would meet you
Would you meet me

It's like a last chance
For a first dance
You're a sunrise
Can't somehow exist
I would meet you
Would you meet me

I'm glad to say that we've met
But I'm sad to say that the circumstances where
On our side

So go on
Go on be your own
Go on be your own star

A simple star in my eyes
In my eyes

Look in my eyes
Just look in my eyes
My eyes
My eyes!

What if we could
Put our lives on
Hold and meet some
Where inside of the world
I would meet you
Would you meet me?

On a park bench
On a skyscrape
On a mountain
Oh yeah, whatever it takes
I would meet you
Would you meet me?

God I would
God I would
I would meet you
Would you meet me

I would meet you
I would meet you
I would meet you

When I Said I Do [Clint Black Cover] ~By Roland~

These times are troubled and these times are good
And they're always gonna be, they rise and they fall

We take 'em all the way that we should
Together you and me forsaking them all

Deep in the night and by the light of day
It always looks the same, true love always does

And here by your side, or a million miles away
Nothin's ever gonna change the way that I feel,
The way it is, is the way that it was

When I said I do, I meant that I will 'til the end of all time
Be faithful and true, devoted to you
That's what I had in mind when I said I do

Well this old world keeps changin', and the world stays the same
For all who came before, and it goes hand and hand

Only you and I can undo all that we became
That makes us so much more, than a woman and a man

And after everything that comes and goes around
Has only passed us by, here alone in our dreams

I know there's a lonely heart in every lost and found
But forever you and I will be the ones
Who found out what forever means

When I said I do, I meant that I will 'til the end of all time
Be faithful and true, devoted to you
That's what I had in mind when I said I do

Truer than true, you know that I'll always be there for you
That's what I had in mind, that's what I had in mind,
When I said I do

Back to Black [Amy Winehouse Cover] ~By Roland~

This song is interesting in that I never understood what Amy was trying to say other than it was a bad break up and when he leaves her to return to the other woman, she goes to a "dark place."

It took singing it, because it was such a well written piece, to understand what she was saying. She's an addict. She's happy and lucid only when he's around. He goes on back to "her," the other woman, ... And she goes back to "BLACK" which I now see is into oblivion and her addiction or blackouts seeking escape from the loss of his love.

It became clear only while singing it. She only said "goodbye" with words, her heart never did and she used her addiction to fall into her "black" oblivion. Strange I didn't see that as much as I'd heard the song.

Outside [Aaron Lewis Cover] ~By Roland~

"And I lie,
Here in bed,
All alone,
I can't mend.

And I feel,
That tomorrow will be ok ...

But I'm on the outside,
I'm looking in.
I can see through you,
See your true colors.

'Cause I think You're Ugly,
Ugly like ME.
I can see through you.
SEE TO THE REAL YOU." ~~Aaron Lewis

A Wasted Day [Esteva, Original Poetry, September 2015]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yesterday, The Sunlight danced freely through your curtains,
… To a melody - in the Key of Silence Breathing.
Choruses of golden light bathed your supple skin … With the soft, red glow
… Of the Early Evening.
Your Freckles-Irish spoke for hours to mine eyes that felt no time.
The clock stood still within our bubble,
And The Earth was yours and mine.
My heightened senses felt the fragrance of your womanhood …
From distances … That were not near enough for us.
Yet were traversed as if an epic journey,
Had brought us mystically to float upon the linen oceans on which we sailed.
Your eyes of green,
Cast waves of light,
Illuminating all they've seen,
While heralding the coming night.
My own eyes dance over the room,
Where smells, and sounds, and textures ... Yet loom,
And darkness chills light streaming from the early moon,
And signals to our reluctant hearts that our time is ending soon.
And now the hours seem as if they passed as minutes.
What did we do that caused such overwhelming joy and absolution?
What felt so perfectly yet cannot be recalled and yields blissed confusion?
The details vanish with a wistful fleeting blowing of the wind ...
And yet all seems more poignant to our lives, relegating all that came before to whim.
A wasted day that held more meaning than all those that came before.
A wasted day that holds the promise of what can be, ...
And much more.
