Kissing Under the Moonlight

 Kissing under the moonlight 

and living for the dream

thinking nightly about you

half based on sweet memory.

Calm that can't be explained

 on a road very few travel, 

where the heart overrides

what the mind knows to be true.

My Mind

 I woke up in this dream 

as I know it from memory, 

I am there in your arms 

like the way you're in my heart.

It is a song that had been sung

in a universal way called love, 

the words all sound the same

maybe because it's a game. 

The moment is almost here, 

I'll close my eyes and see you there.

Taking a bit of you and I 

to build this world in my mind. 

Keep Busy

 Gotta keep busy,

to keep you off my mind.

Keep on looking forward,

no longer back in time. 

Gotta let it go and

free this soul of mine.

There are a lot of ways to imprison,

when messing with the mind.

I'm taking control and not letting go,

no longer letting emotions to flow.

Just like the waters current is fast

and other times it trickles as the 

journey is vast. 

Sings...

I could say goodbye a million times, 

but some how you never leave my mine.

writing " The End" on our story 

has no place in this book. 

I tried to turn away 

to look beyond yesterday, 

but I find that I always 

come back to you.

I could say goodbye a million times

but somehow you never leave my mine. 

You are always here with me

in all my nightly dreams. 

~

 Don't take my love and abuse it, 

I won't allow you to just use it, 

don't ya know what it means to me

it's not simply a foolish dream. 

Don't take  my love and abuse it,

I won't allow you to just use it, 

it comes from within my heart 

and it's been there from the start. 

Don't take my love and abuse it,

I won't allow you to just use it,

I'd rather you walk away than

to allow the pain inside me to stay. 

Don't take my love and abuse it

I won't allow you to just use it,

~

I don't care what you say

and I don't care what you do, 

all I know is that I love you 

and time has nothing on me and you.

I don't care where the road leads

or if circles me back to here, 

as long as you are in my heart

I'll be living in every word I share.

I don't care what you say 

adn I don't care what you do, 

all I know is that I love you

and time has nothing on me and you.

 When I need to see you here, 

I close my eyes and there you are. 

Comforting in so many ways, 

the visuals are always so clear. 

I feel you in the touch of the wind

there is never  a stories end, 

for you are here in my heart

where you've been from the start. 

When I hear your voice 

like a song it always toys, 

messing with this heart of mine

it stops the hands of time. 

No matter where we go

what we do or what we know, 

there will always be a place

in heavens space. 

Singing sweet words of love

bring you so near to me, 

once more I close my eyes

to see you there in my dreams.

~

I feel your presence around me

as your laughter haunts the night,

touching me in this most unique way

I think the Lord has given me sight.

The gifts of life only foretell of a

forever love and a magical spell,

that cast a light upon you and I

in a story that we have yet to tell.

The whispers from my lips

come to you through each kiss,

to remind you of a love 

that the soul can't dismiss. 

It's some kind of dream 

where I can't let you go, 

the feelings inside of me, 

continue to grow. 

I'm reaching in the dark

wishing you were here, 

taking my hand in yours

as in your eyes I stare. 

~

This must be memories

that haunt the night, 

messing with my heart

bringing visions to life. 

I don't think it's quite fair

these feelings that I have, 

as I imagine you must 

be having the last laugh.

The dreams are awfully sweet, 

I just can't let them go, 

I review them all the time 

in gratitude of a moment 

when you were mine.

Someday When You are Old and Gray

All you need to know

is written upon the heavens, 

I can't deny that you'll

always be mine. 

Whispers to the wind

no loneliness for you and I,

we'll never be alone 

forever is the way our love

goes.

Tears might certainly fall

but sadness is not in them at all,

Happiness and joy is what this 

heart of mine employs.

Sings>I  held on to the dream

watched as time went by,

hoping it was certainly true, 

that it was always you. 

You lit up the night

gave the stars a meaning, 

wishing that you knew

how much I love you.

Days just kept on passing by

where years ended up a rhyme,

I'll always love you so 

I hope that you would know.

 ...to wake in your arms each morn.

Gentle the kiss that begs for more. 

In the dream I saw you 

and I felt your kiss, 

so very, very surreal 

our lips to lips. 

Beginning or closure

I am not really sure, 

bringing a comfort 

and begging for more. 

The music is playing 

and I failed to dance,

but life is like that 

it gives you one more 

chance.

~

The creek is swelled 

the water left the bank,

spring is upon us 

and for that I'm giving thanks.

There is a lot to be grateful for

the joy comes from within,

as I share my love with you 

through kisses via  the wind.

Scattered Thoughts

 Needing less but wanting more.

The seasons document a life.

Prayers bring peace through hope. 

Because I can. 

The seasons capture time through memory.

The perfect brings both excitement and peace.

Every time I look at the night sky I feel closer to you,

knowing there are only one set of stars above us.

You only have one great love all the rest is just wannabe's 

The waterfall holds secrets that have only been heard by the heart.

I have learned to shield my heart by preventing expectations.

The words are written for my intended audience...self.

I have run away more times than most without ever moving my feet.

The whole others have it worse never changes ones own story.

How we remember is unique to each person.

I forgive but as the saying goes I never forget.

There are only so many emotions but so many ways to express them.

Experiencing that one great love is enough to see me through the day.

Souls do connect.

I've seen you in my dream a thousand times.

I am okay

I plan on traveling because there is a lot I wanna do and see.

The funny thing is I am not alone because you are imbedded 

deep in my heart.

Life is short eat a brownie. 

I am worthy.

Red flags are the signs you see but fail to believe.

The child in me still lives on.

Love taught me how much caring in its most simplistic form means.

Sometimes I am afraid to dream. 

Relived

 I have relived the words

through a thousand rhymes,

they brought to life this 

troubled heart of mine. 

It made sense and

was certainly clear, 

of what we felt and

what we shared.

Time will pass 

and I'll be gone, 

but he words of love

will find their song. 

It took a  lifetime 

that is so true 

but like a clear day

the truth came thru.

The lessons learned,

a soul set free 

and a story filled

with memories.

Loving, caring, sharing too

just to name a few, 

for I felt mixed with needs

taught me to believe.

You can set the stage

and fake a smile, 

but in the night the

stars do wow!

For they know 

the truth behold,

that real love never

gets old. 

Our flesh crossed a path

connected with love and laughs, 

music, song and mystical joy

continued to toy.

As I lay here in the early morn

my heart is really quite torn,

if not for the chapters of life

but most certainly to make it right.

Sometimes fear ruled the day

in a angry hurtful way, 

reality once more set in 

canceling out where dreams

came in.

 

What I have learned

 Unconditional love is rare ...everyone places conditions on a relationship. 

Even forever has its limitations. 

You are always alone in thought as everyone has a different idea of " what is" 

They say " the older you get the faster time goes by" But I realize time is going by fast for everyone, even young people are noticing how quickly time is flying by.

Broken hearts never heal, they scar over. 

If it brings you joy you should keep it 

maybe that is why a lot of people choose to be alone.

Living and being alive are quite different, 

I know a lot of people in my life who have been 

a live but have yet to live. 

I was once given this advice, 

" I can throw you a rope but you need to climb it"

that might be true but it wouldn't hurt if someone 

helped by pulling the rope up a little. 

We only live on as long as someone remembers us, 

maybe that is why I have put so much time into my family tree. 

Two people loving the same way is rare .

Screaming in silence is louder than any sound

but few people stop to recognize or listen. 

I am not frightened by the thought of death, 

but by the reality that at this time of my life its 

inevitably soon. 

The great push or shove is of our own doing 

but a little help never hurt.

People think animals aren't smart but we expect 

them to learn our language. We are not going

around learning how to speak dog or chicken. 

We never let go of childhood we learn more in 

a few years than we will ever learn as an adult.

Family is not a Normal Rockwell painting. 

No matter where we travel , how near or far

we take the person in the mirror and when you 

look in that mirror you have to like what is looking back.

There is always a beginning and a ending. 

We are much more vulnerable than we 

think we are. 

The galaxy is infinite and we matter

very little to it. 

Real friendship never lets go.

Women want to be held to the same regard as men, 

they fail to realize they are just that women . 

Forever is in the memory of those who believe.

I have experienced more than some less than others. 

I've climbed hills but considering the barriers

those hills were mountains. 

I miss my father the most, 

he taught me the most about life and 

yet I had to experience, trip , fall and 

get back up to understand where he 

was coming from.

No matter where or how we choose our burial 

we all end up ashes. 

Hanging on to a love that doesn't love back

is a waste of life. 

Dear friend said '"you didn't ask so you didn't get"

I am learning how true that is. 

That no one is ever happy, When it rains they want 

sunshine and when it's sunny they want the air conditioner. 

My father use to say that " a man puts his pants on one 

leg at a time. " I tried to prove him wrong and put my

feet in at the exact same time. 

There is a script for each of us but who is writing it 

is the question. 

The wealthiest of man  can see the joy in the 

smallest of things or is that poor man who 

is now wealthy because he does feel the joy?

Emotionally tired is like giving up.

One moment wasted is one to many. 

Prayer is positive energy. 

Choices is like a game of chutes and ladders, 

sometimes we go up and other times we are sliding down. 

Fifteen years can be a young person whole life and a

old persons end of life. 

On a clear day I can see forever but the days

haven't been to clear lately. 

Love and hate are both strong emotions 

that once seeded are quite powerful. 

We all have wants and needs 

that is simplicity of our animal drive. 

Watching the sunrise on the beach 

is one of my most beautiful memories, 

mostly because I carry you in my heart.

Living life over again means you lived with regrets,

I have no regrets. 

The gift of life is indeed brief.

Scattered thoughts and yet they always bring me back to you.

Dreams just might be our alternate reality. 

Touch

The ducks are a quacking 

and the willow quickly grew 

nostalgic thoughts on the mind

as they had me race to you.

Laughter and tears from day to day, 

shared moments in a special way.

Smiling as I hold on tight 

to the joy and love of my life.

Adventures only we can share

right down to just underwear. 

Emotions that I almost forgot

and the temp is getting hot. 

I saw you clearly in my dream

we shared the day wonderfully,

might have been your promise of eternity 

as I felt you reach out and touch me. 

 

Grasp

 These lingering emotions 

appear in my dreams, 

as if you are there and 

still haunting me.

In my dream it was just a game

that two people play, 

and I loved every silly moment,

that's locked in my mine. 

My emotions have gone wild,

filled with your energy.

Cross fear and contentment

in a full range of disbelief.

 

~

Time brings an awareness,

to see life differently, 

it all makes a whole lot of sense, 

separating reality from dreams.

Some people use the moment

and others play the fool, 

when casting the players 

there is no certain rules. 

It might be just a page

in a chapter of life's book,

but it leaves within an imprint

like a copy of a scrapbook.

Is it baggage we take with us

or a story to leave behind?

Maybe it's just lessons 

that through the soul entwines.

The chill causes a quiver

one that we can't shake,

reminders of a lifetime

and a mountain of  mistakes.

From early on we find 

the flaws of humanity,

and the simple hunger

that brings us to our knees.

The universe reveals

how minute we are, 

not much different than 

the wild animals at heart. 

Gathering like Chipmunks

hanging on to the past,

the further we move ahead

the stronger it's grasp.

 Waking up early each morn

to a chill like never before, 

one thought or a song or two 

as my mind turns to you. 

Wondering what you are doing

and where you are right now, 

as I go about daydreaming 

I try to hide this silly smile.

The days are limited 

each one surely a gift, 

with each passing moment

your love gives me a lift. 

~

No blue birds at the window,

happiness is a distance away.

I tried to block the thoughts

as if my soul was simply lost. 

no blue birds at the window. 

No tears from these eyes, 

as that part of me as died. 

I'm not counting days 

I'm going on my way, 

no tears from these eyes.

Fairytale

 Flipping through the book of life,

blocking out the pages that make me cry. 

Taking tomorrow by surprise 

to quickly ease this troubled mind. 

I didn't expect what I'd find 

who wrote this script of mine?

I am sure it wasn't left to choice

like a song bird without a voice. 

If I truly held the pen 

I'd be there with you my friend, 

all the days have passed on by 

and I built a brick wall out of time. 

~

Holding on to the good times 

brushing away the darkness of life, 

wondering if that sun will shine again

or if this story has come to and end?

Sighing in disbelief 

was it was a want or a need?

It felt so surreal but I am sure

it was based on a fairytale. 

Impossible

 Impossible dreams as 

only in the night are you mine, 

I wake up each morning and

I face the solitude of time. 

I wanted to believe it so

that your arms were for only me,

but I realized a little bit late 

that I was never on your mind. 

The sequence of the story 

jumped through a chapter or two,

still blurred by the heartache 

a decade of love has passed through.

Maybe a lesson for fools

who believe that we can have it all,

but the truth lay down before us 

with a reminder of the limits that

once had me in awl.

I settled for the impossible 

even if it's only in my dreams,

there is where I'll find you 

based on my memories. 

~

The treasure is when I first met you 

it gave me the power to believe in the heavens blue, 

from the moment I experienced all that could be, 

I fell asleep in a life long dream. 

The Importance

 Time rules each moment

there is nothing we can do,

and when the heavens call 

we'll be passing through. 

Take hold of each memory 

and hold it so ever near, 

as the celebration is in life

and all that we share. 

I thought about each person

that simply crossed my path 

and only one held on and that's

the beauty in how long its last.

Facing reality 

whether want or need, 

you continued to hold my hand

bringing joy to me. 

Devil makes a play

 Sun shining down on the hills

and the wind above is blowing 

but the trees are standing still,

as I watch a hawk fly over the 

field. 

The season is approaching rather fast

 fluctuating like fractured glass, 

sliver of glass to the skin is a reminder 

of the pain the past let's in. 

~

You don't always understand

 when the devils hand is played.

trickery at its best when the

darkness is engaged. 

Believing or wanting 

the fool takes the stand, 

when you see what you see

is a part of some evil plan. 

Traveling down this road

I've traveled before 

but this is a little different

as I know what's in store.

~

 

 

Happiness

 I saw that chance at happiness

your hand firmly in mine, 

like a raft thrown out at sea

those moments rescued me. 

We took the reigns of time,

each day a blessing of sort.

From that first day I met you

I felt your love support. 

It is the tea cup in the morning, 

the caring throughout the day,

simple words of love 

and the happiness they bring.

Time

 I wanna love you 

and I wanna care, 

but my heart is broken 

and it teeters on fear.

I want you to love me,

and I want you to care, 

but the time has passed

and you aren't here. 

No chance that fate

could change this path, 

for it really is time 

that is having the last laugh. 

Unconditionally

 Unconditionally, what does that really mean?

To love and be loved forever and completely 

accepting all that we are deep down in our heart,

as we stay united and promise to never part. 

When time passes by and grey hair falls in my eyes

and a wrinkle or two has made its way through,

you'll still hold my hand and my heart command

as if it was like that very first day.

Sometimes I think the dreams 

were never ever meant to be, 

but just a game of two 

that brings me in the night to you.

I have seen you there and

wondered what was left to share?

Did time hold the key or was it

just a passing thing?

A part of me as truly died. 

Through the Words

 Through the words I ran away, 

left behind the dark of day, 

to the clouds passing by 

escaping the hands of time. 

Releasing the evil reign

where it no longer stays, 

setting free and letting go,

the mind no longer the game. 

Weep not heart of sorrow past, 

he who stands begins to laugh, 

like chalk written on the wall

erasing it one and for all. 

Ramblings of the Heart

 To brief a time

~

Fear dictates the journey

~

I miss you the most. 

~

Memories can be both good or bad, 

depending on where they lead you.

~

Love or Lust?  Love is caring and in most cases lust is selfish. Unless you have a spiritual intimacy and a physical intimacy on the same plane. 

1. 
   

2. ~

3. Love and hate are so close together in the sense that both are an energy that says you care, 

~

I will love you till the end of time. Which feels a lot closer than one would think.

~

I think its possible to become dehydrated on the amount of tears one sheds.

~

Tethered by heartache.

~

I spent a life time of running with my feet standing still.

~

Who ever wrote the script of life should have been fired long ago.

~

Like a mosaic painting my thoughts are all scrambled. 

~

Screams in silence. 

~

Is it what I believed it to be or merely confusion ?

~

The tear that does not fall remains within. 

~

The storm woke both the physical and the spiritual. 

~

I hope your journey was better than this.

~

I feel that certain ending that we all will come to at one time or antoher.

~

I begged the wind if it should blow 

to your heart my love would go. 

Whispers, roars or rolls on by 

touch the soul and the mind. 

Chills by day and ache by night

reminders of this passing life, 

Might have been our paths had crossed

but nothing is ever truly lost. 

Haunt My Mind

 You never ever said  your good-bye

the void in my heart feels like I had died, 

I tried to hold on to all the memories 

but as the days passed so did they. 

I try to visualize what it could be

but it all seems like a blur to me,

maybe it was just a dream or

 two people simply in passing. 

The ache is always with me

no matter what or where I go,

like an imprint left in concrete

there are reminders everywhere.

No longer do the tears fall 

though we could have had it all, 

all the joy that love brings and

the feelings like the first of spring. 

I looked upon the night sky 

searching the heavens high, 

knowing that you might be looking too

as I say my good- bye to you. 

It didn't turn out how I hoped

seemed that we were sliding  

up and down the slippery slopes,

no it didn't turn out how I hoped.

Just to once hold your hand

walking along the freshly washed sand,

as the sun shines down on you and I

I'll have to settle for those dreams that

haunt my mind.

Teetering

 I don't think you get it 

why the blue bird doesn't sing, 

while winter keeps on battling

and it some what maddening. 

I shout from the hills 

and it echo's back to me, 

Dare I face the truth 

that each season brings.

I tried to change direction

to follow the correct path, 

but I think it must be fate

that stands to take the last 

laugh. 

Teetering on fear

it anchors to the soul 

when memories fail

to release their hold. 

Journey

 It might have been the time

or the way it was meant to be, 

but no one would understand

the secrets within me. 

Pain within the eyes, 

the ache within the heart

on a reckless journey 

where memories never part. 

Whispers done in silence,

as if the need to share 

but fall upon deaf ears

imbedded with a touch of fear.

To the grave they'll follow

as they weren't meant to be, 

for it was a time and place

in a seemingly troubled journey.

One or a Thousand

 I felt the chill of the wind to my cheek, 

the stars shining and the moon full as can be.

Silence of the brisk walk in the night 

gave way to the tree's as they came to life. 

Walking down the gravel road 

somehow I knew I wasn't alone.

My hand swinging by myside 

felt your hand gentle in mine. 

I gazed up high at the  sky

as the the night went passing by,

I knew wherever you were,

my whisper of love would be heard.

Snow blankets the winter grass 

as the trees silhouette captures the past,

from that moment I knew it to be true

in my heart is where I keep you.

~

You can run away 

as fast as can be, 

but the truth beholds

what will be. 

It doesn't matter 

how far we go, 

as the reflection 

won't ever let go. 

No one to push 

and no one to pull, 

so I dust off the moment

and take on the hill. 

I took on the challenge

and I'll see where it leads,

one day or a thousand 

I'll still have my dreams.

Story of Love

 In the garden, 

by the seashore, 

or the clouds up above, 

you are my dream of 

sweet love. 

Peaceful and contentment

it's a treasure indeed, 

when I think of your kindness

in past memories. 

Gentle your hand 

sweetly to my cheek,

as I kiss you good morning

in each of my daydreams.

The feelings I have inside 

are a reminder of another time, 

when laughter took center stage

and a story of love was first made.

Follow Me

 Follow me, follow me 

through this dream, 

hold my hand and 

you'll begin to see.

Follow me, follow me

through this dream, 

with a kiss to start

in a embrace of eternity.

Follow me, follow me

through this dream,

where love can be found

in most everthing. 

In a Magical Way

 I spent my night daydreaming,, 

wondering if you are too,

the world became a lot smaller

when it united me with you. 

One heaven above us 

wherever we may go, 

and one set of stars 

without ever letting go.

Closing my eyes 

and I see you here, 

every word written

from the heart I share. 

I'll never say goodbye

for you are a part of me, 

deep here within 

to let go would be a sin. 

Smiles with every thought,

holding on to what can't be bought,

a love as wonderful as can be

it soothes with a single dream.

Love like ours 

can never be repeated, 

unique in its own way

will remain ours forever

and a day.

..through your eyes

 It might be a bit cliche, 

through your eyes our love remains, 

something about you never fades, 

its the magic of a sunshine filled rain. 

I didn't see you to really know 

that a connection would continue to grow, 

I'll continue to write the words 

and watch them fly on the wings of the 

blue bird.

There is no loneness for me, 

we'll never part for eternity, 

stepping forward  one at a time

with your love heart, soul and mind.

February Snow

 I watched the snow falling down, 

sprinkles of star dust on the ground.

That with the sweetest memories 

brings a joy directly to me. 

Closed my eyes to bring you near, 

so our love could be shared.

From that first day I met you

my world took on a different hue.

It doesn't matter where you are, 

our names are written on the star, 

up above the clouds high, 

the star is shining down on you and I.

Life was most certainty grey

until I think of you it goes away, 

bringing sunshine to my heart

melting it from afar. 

There is no tears in these eyes of mine,

only smiles till the end of time.

as long as I have your memory 

I'll live on that sweetheart dream.

You might have let go, 

turned away like melting snow, 

but I remind you that I don't care

as I will always keep you here.

There is a place in my heart, 

occupied by your sweet love,

kept there for those special days

so our cloud dance never fades.

Sweet Dreams Indeed.

 It's some kind of magic

this powerful energy we share, 

from the moment I wake up 

there's love in the air. 

It can't be copied

it's as unique as can be, 

sweeter than honey 

it brought you to me. 

Touches my heart 

in an extraordinary way, 

leaving happiness to carry

me throughout the day. 

I'll say good night 

glad you're in my life, 

as you calm my spirit 

replacing the darkness 

with light. 

~

Sunshine on grey cloudy days and a warmth that blankets in it's own way. Grateful am I for this unique kind of love. Unconditionally wonderful must have been sent down from above. I close my eyes and whisper good night as  I tuck your love in my heart to keep safe throughout our life.  Sweet Dreams.

Never Gone

 I found through words

that our souls remain as one, 

I felt the peace when you and

I fell in love. 

Magical as it may be

I'll try to explain what I see, 

flowers when the winter chills

and sunshine on snowy hills. 

`

My soul finally set free 

once and for all, 

as it soars to the heavens

to see what is in store. 

My fingers kept on typing

the words just rambled on, 

as if my heart was never broken

and you were never gone. 

wake up

 There was something in 

the song that I heard, 

not merely the words

as the memories rushed in. 

I could feel it take a hold of me

like some foolish daydream,

and once more I found my self

there in your arms. 

I'm gonna hold on tight 

to the warmth and sunlight, 

to all that you have brought 

sweetly here to me. 

You might never understand

the hearts demands 

as I wake up in the dreams

of those magical yesterdays. 

Stock on Eternity

I gazed at the night sky, 

the stars were shining bright, 

my mind drifted closer 

to the embrace of you and I.

I am never, ever alone,

you are always here with me, 

you are deep in my heart

we took out stock on eternity.

Time

 It's the words in a love song, 

the memories of you, 

the heartache that I'm feeling

as if the days are through. 

Sorrow in the making 

if that can possibly be, 

with every good bye

it shatters the dreams. 

~

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.
