As Long as We are Together

We at times have a tendency to allow the negativity to overshadow the positive. My memories of childhood are like a collage of both good and bad. Though it seems as if the there is a meeting of the mind when the emotions collide, I grasp to hold on to the positive.
When I was ill as a child, my father would sing a lullaby. I found that music was one of the few memories that was indeed enjoyable to review.
As I have matured, music still plays an important part in my life. It documents a moment an experience and can be both warm and comforting. I wanted to create lyrics that would bridge our worlds. Here is my attempt at escaping the darkness that surrounds me.


I'll rearrange the stars
to bridge your cloud to mine,
as long as we are together 
everything will be just fine. 

The snowflakes a crystal, 
like diamonds from the sky,
your heart the jewel that 
reached on out to mine. 

Let the angels sing our 
song, from the heavens
we will hear, the music
doesn't matter as long 
as you are in my arms. 

I'll rearrange the stars, 
to bridge your cloud to mine, 
as long as we are together
everything will be just fine. 

The dreams a catalyst 
that always keeps you near, 
until I awake to hear your
voice and once again 
each day share. 

Sunshine kisses to thrill 
the day long and the 
eternal embrace that
dances to our song. 

 I'll rearrange the stars, 
to bridge your cloud to mine, 
as long as we are together
everything will be just fine. 

I closed the door on 
yesterday's despair and
opened it to allow you in 
like a breath of fresh air. 

You are my morning hello, 
my sweet good night, 
my friend, my partner, 
the love of my life. 

 I'll rearrange the stars, 
to bridge your cloud to mine, 
as long as we are together
everything will be just fine.

The tears fall like rain upon the night,
flooding the soul and giving way to the heart.
