Star in the Sky

 There is a star in the sky

and a dream of you and I, 

the magic of the day 

brings happiness our way.


Dancing in my mind 

there is only you and I, 

as the season comes to an end

so does the chapter my friend.


Hello or Goodbye 

can't stop the hands of time, 

no matter what we do

time rules over the blue.

Still

From my lips the words of love

for those ears of that special one, 

from my heart I send to you

a summer sky of baby blue. 


May you wake up

 early in the morn

and feel the magic that

 rids life of the storms.


Know that I love you

and I always will, 

as you took my heart 

and my life stood still. 

~


The memories flooded

in the most unusual way, 

every thought that came to mind

was unique in its own way.


I could sense your being 

feel you from inside, 

from the moment of hello

you toyed with my mine. 






~


 The songs scrambled in my head

and the words no longer can be read. 

My feet steady on the ground 

there is no more dancing on the clouds. 


The chapter written on love 

has already made its run, 

there is no tomorrow that I can see

if there is no you and me.

Fantasy or two

 The sun goes down and

no one can be found,

the stars now shine

and I imagine you are 

mine. 


Can it change 

the possibilities remain,

when I think of you 

and what our love can

do. 


Call it wishful thoughts

ones that can't be stopped,

blue skies are all I have 

with those dreams of you.

Always

 I take with me the dreams,

the visual of our embrace. 

The story of our love 

that in my heart is encased. 


Time has played its part

and distance ruled the day,

as I look back to the moment

that is within me ingrained.


No matter where life leads us

or what path our souls will trail,

you'll always be a part of me

till this heart of mine stands still.

The Season for...

 Daisy petals falling down, 

disappear upon the ground. 

Waiting on another day, 

preferably without the rain.


The soul is weighted down

barely able to rebound, 

the clouds a blanket make

to soothe the internal ache.


It could have been a dream

conjured up by memories,

one by one the visuals pass

leaving a void in mass. 


I saw what sunshine can do 

from the heavens a sky of blue,

the laughter and joy fade

only sorrow remains. 


Heard your voice 

and saw your smile,

I kept it near to 

bridge the miles.


Tears swell and fall

you swam in them all,

the heartbreak never fades

to remain till the end of days.


Who could understand

that this was hell's plan,

time's awkward division 

seems to be the mission.

Helping Hand

I feel your sorrow, 

I feel your pain, 

I feel your heartache

as If I were standing 

in the rain. 


You were there 

when I needed you,

there to make my sky blue,

there to bring sunshine to the

day.


I don't know what I can do,

reaching out to help you.

Just like you reached out

and helped me. 





Confess

 The tears tell the story

of the pain in the heart, 

buckets of mourning 

in what feels like certain

death.


Gone without a goodbye 

no kiss to leave upon the lips.

The emptiness left inside 

is the void of love I confess.


My Heart

 It seemed to be an ordinary night,

the moon hung outside my window.

The sky was the clearest I ever saw

as the stars could be seen shining bright.


I lay on my bed with my head upon the pillow,

no emotions of happiness nor sadness did I feel.

It was if the pages of life were blank and

no stories were ever written down. 


The pen of life was placed in my hand 

and though so few pages were left,

I knew that I ruled tomorrow and

I scribbled down the words that were

left.


It all seemed a bit needy 

to continue on the same script,

so, I burned all the pages and

wrote down what in my heart is left.

I'll always love you

 Love you, I'll aways love you, 

that's how it is meant to be.

Deams, there is always dreams,

to keep you here close to me. 


Singing, I am always singing 

songs of you and I, 

as I take to the moment 

and hold you close at heart. 


Love you, I'll aways love you, 

that's how it is meant to be.

Deams, there is always dreams,

to keep you here close to me.

War

 The world in battle between nature and man,

destroys the day in a devilish kind of plan. 

The goodness and kindness need to take a hand

in battling the evil set out by man. 


Wars for nothing but hatred and greed 

as innocent people are killed for nothing. 

I can't imagine how path that many take 

but I pray that show how goodness finds

its way.

~


I know that you're in the war zone, 

the battle for life is near, 

I take to praying for peace 

hoping one day the children can

live without fear. 


The world is quite small,

smaller with each passing day.

Everything that affects you

affects us all in different ways.


We are not very much different,

our hopes and dreams the same.

Living in peace and love 

is the wish for the very same day.



The Season

 The wind against my cheek

and the rain falling down, 

awakened by the season 

I'm soaring off the ground.


The memories are sweet

to my heart a treat, 

as I envision you here

beside me. 


~

 

The Devil

 I tried to reckon with the devil

anticipating he would change the script,

but the distance remains between us

and I can only dream to touch your lips.


The connection is forever

and that sends within me a chill,

knowing there is nothing I can do

that time will ultimately reveal. 


I whisper words of love

and to you my luv I share,

hoping that you will understand

how much I truly care.


I tried to reckon with the devil

anticipating he would change the script,

but the distance remains between us

and I can only dream to touch your lips.




The Song

 When I dream of you

all the stars are ours, 

when I dream of you 

you're never far.


Dancing on the clouds of white

you are in my heart for all of life.


When I dream you 

all the stars are ours,

when I dream of you

you're never far.


Somehow you found your way

and that is how I felt from the first day.


When I dream you 

all the stars are ours,

when I dream of you

you're never far.


The magic of loving embrace

can never be replaced, 


When I dream of you

all the stars are ours,

when I dream of you 

you're never far.






Paralyzed

There is an emptiness inside and

I feel as if a part of me has died,

the world became so small

as I'm surrounded by a wall. 


No push or pull and still

you have that hold, 

paralyzed in away 

that robs me of the day.


I yelled from the hilltop

screamed in silence as well,

my words were misguided

as they reached you.






Haunting

 I have this feeling 

that can't be explained, 

tried over and over but

it feels quite the same. 


It wakes me each morning

and it's there through the day,

when I close my eyes 

the haunting is the same. 


From The First

 No amount of the heaven's stars 

can free the prisoner of the heart, 

as you held me from the first 

and never would we part. 


The words go down in history

of two lost souls 

 simply found each other 

and that's how the stories told.


Sunshine and blue skies

are forever engrained, 

no matter what the day brings

the heavens stay the same. 


Whether you are here or not 

my heart you will have, 

imprisoned on the very day

you took my dreams away. 


You don't have to know

but I'll tell you so, 

the love I have for you 

has yet to let me go.

You

 Gone without a goodbye, 

I have seen it so many times.

From the day I met you 

I knew just what you'd do.


There is a time and place

for all these dreams laid,

the last is yet to come 

I am betting on another sun.


Summer days are almost gone

as I sit here thinking all alone,

was it choice that led the way

or was this script already in play?


Somethings we'll know

but from the experience we grow,

the stars will soon be in place

as I close my eyes to see your face.


Words of love 

from the heart are sung, 

just one more day

of simply loving you.

Monet


I held my pillow tightly 

and I whispered your name,

as if you could hear me 

like the forest hears the rain. 


It all seemed quite magical

in a simplistic kind of way.

as I closed my eyes once more

and sent my kisses on their way. 

 

The smile replaced the tears

as the memories are in play,

I thought of the time we shared

like a canvas of a rare Monet. 



~

Blue skies and stars bright

I can't seem to sleep tonight,

wishing and wanting just one

moment to hold you here. 


Time is quickly passing 

you won't find me laughing, 

tear drops like rain falls 

with you I'd have it all. 


Distance we're far apart

but still, you have my heart. 

Nothing will change that

that is a matter of fact.


Whispers to the angels above

please send him my love,

let him know I care and 

what I'd do for one more day 

to share. 

~


I am wide awake 

can't seem to fall asleep, 

all I have are memories

that I live on in a dream.


Every single thought

each vision that passes through

all have one thing in common

they filled with my love for you.

The Sea Gives Away

 When the sea gives way 

to the rise of the sun and

the skies of blue celebrate

the finest days of love.


The heart feels anew

with the love I have for you,

my heart races with the wind

as I take on the blue.


Till the moon takes 

its place high in the sky, 

I'll prepare for your arms

in this world of delight.


The stars are magical indeed

joining you here with me, 

they sparkle in the heavens

as we close our eyes to dream.


There is a comfort in knowing

our love was truly meant to be,

the feeling pleasantly eternal 

what comes from memories.


 When the sea gives way 

to the rise of the sun and

the skies of blue celebrate

the finest days of love.

Lost in the Moment

 You refused to catch me 

and I failed to tread, 

as the water was rising

something inside me 

felt dead.


I reached for your hand

and nothing was there,

light went to darkness

and I was overwhelmed 

with fear.


I whispered in song

in hoping you'd hear,

but my voice came back to me

with no one to share.


Trying to move 

but still am I, 

as I lay here dreaming

of you by myside.


It all comes together

like a blur of sort,

a montage in the making

or was it some foolish sport?


There is no one to push

and no one to pull,

my soul feels the emptiness

that made me your fool.
