Remain

The lights are lit,

the music played 

and there I dance

in the rain. 

I reached on out in the night

my hand in your hand tight, 

feel the love sweet from within 

bridges the miles that distance pinned.

Maybe I am just a thought

or a chapter that was lost, 

but in my heart you'll remain

and there my love is where you'll stay. 

 Is it growth or is it change 

or time that plays a game? 

Some would say we are 

wiser along the way. 

Rereading the chapters of life

somethings just don't feel right, 

but they all happen just the same

as they go about documenting the day.

~

Silence speaks the loudest, 

there is shouting from inside. 

It is in this place of darkness  

that heartache still resides. 

The day comes with laughter

no memories to toy but 

there in the eve the nightmares

were deployed. 

~

Hold

 The night was clear 

no clouds in sight, 

all I saw was stars

twinkling so bright. 

The frogs a croaking 

by the side of the pool,

as I went about swimming

your memory had a hold. 

Sharing the moment 

is all I want to do, 

to be in your arms

and do what lovers do.

Time is racing 

faster and faster each day,

there is no stopping 

as the sunlight fades away.

Only the night sky 

as I swim here all alone,

wishing and a wanting

your love to not let go.

All Along

 The memories are forever

and the dreams make you mine, 

the stillness of a summer night 

reviews a chapter of life.

I can hear your voice 

and see the smile on your face, 

my eyes tightly closed 

and my heart begins to race. 

Whispers in the night of

a song that only lovers know,

shared between two hearts

with us wherever we go.

Reaching out to hold you

and wanting to never let go,

to open up my eyes and find

that all along I have been alone.

Sweetest Daydream

 The rain keeps falling,

the stream swells out of its bank, 

summer soon approaching and 

those dark clouds have yet to pass.

The day of celebration is over

but the joy still remains, 

as I go about daydreaming

as the month races away.

My thoughts are scattered

as scattered as they can be, 

but I no longer need to run

I am happy being me. 

~

I have said my share of goodbye's

there were more than I would have liked, 

some are temporary and others last for life

but it's in your absence that never feels quite right.

Call it a chapter in this story we call life,

heaven and hell scripted, cut like a knife. 

Pages upon pages that I try to rewrite 

but the journey moves forward whether 

wrong or right.

~

One thing is certain and this I will say, 

I'm never alone as you're with me in away.

I feel you in my heart it warms my spirit so, 

soul and soul together is how we never let go.

I thought it might be magic or a mystery of sort,

the way we came together and wanted for more.

I can only tell you what it has done to me,

as I found the way to dance in and out of my dreams.

~~

To the wind my kisses,

to the mountains my soul, 

to soar above the heavens

to the one I so adore.

When I find I'm in the eye of a storm,

I race to your memory to find my norm.

Peaceful and quiet a warmth comes over me

as I go about living in the sweetest daydream.

Sings ...If I only could

 If I could make you want me, make you love me 

turn the world upside down and make you hug me.

If I only could , if you only would now.

If I could make you dance ,take a chance

hold my hand and take a stand.

If I only could, if you only would now.

If I could make you listen, hear the whispers

feel the moment and be the mister.

If I only could,if you only would now. 

If I could make you miss  me, make you kiss me,

dream the dreams that make you need me. 

If I only could, if you only would now.

Today

 Make new memories

and call it a day, 

time filled with laughter

in a joyous way..

Perfect weather

sunshine at its best, 

the rain held off 

and we are all so blessed. 

Friends and family

all gathered for fun,

swimming and sharing

till the day was done.. 

Can't cry on what can't be

yesterday is but a memory,

got to pick up the moment 

while holding on to the dream.

One

 I felt the summer breeze,

warm it kissed my cheek, 

daydreaming it was you

I drifted off to the blue. 

Simply another day 

sunshine with the rain, 

grateful for the time 

where memories make you

mine. 

Squeezing the thin air 

wishing you were here, 

holding on to the love 

from that special one.

Share

Can't take back the years, 

can't make the memories fade,

somethings will remain forever,

forever and a day. 

The song from the soul

no words does it need,

haunting like a hum 

triggers the dreams.

I can feel your presence

as if you were here, 

hearts and soul together

the love is what we share.
