Loneliness

It's hidden deep within my heart

where no one else can see

An ever growing loneliness 

that always walks with me...

A sadness that aflicts my soul

I try my best to hide

I wish that I could let it go

how often I have tried...

Fields of Red

Lay me down in fields of red

where flowers bloom in spring

The land that birthed a thousand souls

where ancient voices sing...

Speak of all the glory days
the tribute to a friend
A solemn little gathering
that loved him to the end...

Your Voice

It's been a long and lonely year

I've made it through somehow

When times were hard I heard your voice

just like I hear it now...

You always have a special way

to let me know you're close

Whenever I am faltering

and when I need you most...

A New Year's Wish

A sudden overwhelming pause

you're thoughts are coming through

The changing of the year arrives

and still, I'm not with you...

My spirit feels your warm embrace

and soon my mind is calm

I search to find the words to say 

before the year is gone...

Alas I'll wait another day

my patience will renew

My Love the only wish I have

a happy year with you...

Christmas Morning

Christmas morning at the door

excitement in the air

Trees adorned with lights and lace

the fireplace aflare...

Soon the children will awake

and run towards the tree

"Look what Santa brought for us

and what he brought for me!"....

Charlotte

Charlotte please don't turn away

let's give this one more chance

A little give and take is all

to have a real romance...

Just say the word and I'll be there

that's really all it takes

We'll move on from the world we've known

forget our past mistakes...

We'll go wherever fate will lead

and start a brand new life

I'll kneel before you with a ring

and ask you be my wife...

Peace

I now have peace with who I am

my role in life is clear

It wasn't always quite that way

I had to conquer fear...

Melancholy Attitude

A melancholy attitude

I've been here for a while

I just can't seem to shake this thing

forgotten how to smile...
