Fighting Chance

Sometimes it really takes a while 

to see things as they are

Sometimes the dreams we hold on to

don't take us very far...

Sometimes we have to mute the voice

the pleadings of the heart

Sometimes to have a fighting chance

we need a brand new start...

The Poet

How you move me with your words
they touch my heart again
You see the things within my soul
I think of now and then...

You write of secrets no one knows
they're hidden deep inside
No one knows the many times
I sat alone and cried...

Please take your pen and paint for me
an image in my mind
A scene that I can look upon
a joy that I can find...

Painting

You are the treasure in my life

a priceless work of art

Your face displayed so prominently

upon the canvas of my heart...

Heartstrings

Even after all these years

I still remember you

I've thought of you a thousand times

and where you've traveled to …

Sometimes I see you in a crowd

but then you disappear

I search the faces frantically

in hopes you'll reappear...

Alas a phantom every time 

the heartstrings pull again

Why does my heart still long for you

my sweet and lovely friend?...

A Dream

Some times I feel I'm in a dream

that never seems to end

A state of mind so I can cope

to help my heart to mend...

The Star

I still get giddy in my heart

when you come home at night

You're still the joy within my soul

the star that shines so bright...

Live Again

You found me at my lowest point

somehow you felt my pain

You reached your hand to lift me up

to help me live again...

Troubles

Sometimes our troubles overwhelm

our spirits weep inside

We long to see the clarity

that darkness tries to hide...
