Frank Sinatra - Somewhere in your heart

Grasp

 Can't grasp the meaning

of this painful heart break, 

lasting a lifetime

in hell the dreams partake.

So many steps ahead 

to find I'm looking back, 

on a journey of a lifetime 

like a computer it was hacked. 

The word

 I spent my life running

though my feet were standing still, 

troubled with the bends 

I couldn't make it over the hills. 

The memories weighted

seem to hold me down, 

as I tried to let go

I felt as if I drowned. 

Reviewing each one,

like a chapter in a book, 

the images came to life

and my heart they took. 

~

Impossible to say goodbye

as you are a part of me, 

more than memories in a day

you are the start of all my dreams.

I tried to make sense of all that happened

but I think the world is still laughing. 

Though it might not matter to anyone

 I have felt the magic of true love.

Powerful as it can be, 

touched my heart and set my soul free, 

all stories must come to and end

so I close my eyes 

Winters day

Clouded night sky 

no stars to be seen, 

the distance between us

is like a faded memory. 

Sighs deeply 

silence takes a hold, 

as chapters of life

quickly unfold. 

~

Singing a song of love

with you and I in mind,

I think it was written 

from the angels above.

It brought a smile to my face

as I thought of you and I

and my  heart suddenly

 began to race. 

I held the image 

close in my heart, 

so I could visit 

and we would never part.

Somethings have changed

that is certainly true, 

but the joy I experienced

has me daydreaming of you.

I close my eyes 

and I am there with you, 

holding your hand and 

making dreams come true. 

The visuals repeating

become a bit surreal, 

as I feel a special love

that only true love can 

feel.

The peace that comes 

with my love for you, 

never diminishes it only

make me long more for you. 

~

The seasons are passing

so very quickly by, 

that I feel the darkness

that anchors from inside.

It might have been choices

or possibly it was fate, 

that has me standing alone

at the gardens gate. 

Reaching to feel you here

to only find you never cared,

life they say is all but a game

but I know I'll never be the same.

~

The pictures pass one by one, 

like pages in a book of simple love.

Foolishly

 It all becomes much clearer

as the journey nears to the end,

that the pain felt in the heart 

is what we had to contend. 

I thought it all must be lessons

one each time my heart broke, 

but that wasn't my story as 

I wouldn't have made it a joke. 

No tears today are falling

my emotions are quite still, 

it's not that I am no longer caring

but that I might of lost the will.

Days of long ago 

appear like a glimpse of yesterday,

reminders of the choices 

that I foolishly made.

Memories

 Snow white hill tops, 

a chill that can't be stopped,

the season of winter prolonged

a day without a song. 

Shattered pieces of a broken heart

accumulates like mountains afar,

the painful ache is forever and 

forever it will be as I allow the

memories to take a part of me. 

Time

 With everything a beginning

and with everything and end, 

as we journey through this life

it's the memories that we contend.

From deep sorrow to bliss 

in my heart it all remains, 

like a glimpse of star light

that we carry through our days. 

The fear is overwhelming

I have said to many goodbyes, 

that time is quickly approaching

and that we cannot defy.

 

Unconditional

 So many people cross our path, 

in this journey of our yesterdays,

but there is only one connection 

that is completely unconditional.

United both heart and soul, 

the feelings never grow old, 

it's the love that we share

knowing we both care. 

Whispering in the darkness

that wherever you maybe,

that you'll here my words of love

passing over into your nightly dreams.

Moment Away

 No where to run away, 

miss you with each passing day,

heart brake is all I know

the pain just grows and grows.

I miss the talks we had, 

it erased the darkness of the past, 

lit my day with sunshine bright

lighting up my life. 

Nothing will ever be the same,

the tears have yet to fade away.

I wait to hear the phone ring 

and all I get is silent screams. 

~

Every step we take 

unique as it can be, 

for each individual

has their own journey.

It rarely makes any sense

this path we're on, 

but as I reach out to you

my heart sings the song.

Many mountains between us,

the roads circle around, 

I feel the winter chill 

as snow covers the ground.

This story has not been told,

as the days pass on I'm feeling quite old,

the mystery that conjures in place

a simple vision that causes the heart to race.

 Home is where the story ends, 

 

Saturday

Vulnerable as the sun is hot, 

as dark as the midnight sky, 

as cold as a norther winter day,

is the ache that still remains. 

Dream or nightmare 

they're both the same, 

for distance surfaced

in its own way. 

Surprise

 I woke this morning 

and to my surprise, 

even in the darkness

I felt the sun bright. 

Touching the soul 

the heart exclaimed

I am here to celebrate

with you another day.

Today

 One sky above us,

your stars are mine, 

I'll take this forever 

if forever makes you 

mine.

No distance between us

our souls can't part, 

for you found your place

right here in my heart.
