Swept Away

Got swept away on tidal waves

and soon, far out to sea

A broken heart was all I had

and no one there with me...

In time I found my way back home

but not without the scars

I swear, I'll never love again

nor look up at the stars...

My Child

My child, the world awaits your smile

your time is soon to come

I pray that laughter fills your days

and many years you'll run...

My child, the scent is beautiful

the petals white as snow

Soon you'll see them for yourself 

and then you too will know...

My child, I've waited all my life

for you to be with me

In just a very little while

we'll be a family...

Predators

One by one, they gather round

a predator to prey

I dare not bleed a single drop

or else my final day

That Day

Oh to be within that day

when troubles are no more

To fly above the highest clouds

and feel my spirit soar...

The Walls

The walls...the walls...they stand discreet

they whisper and they nod

Every day they close some more

where are you now my God?




Music by Oasis

In Time

Our paths still cross from time to time

I guess they always will

The hardest part in all of this

you know I love you still...

I see your posts from time to time

can't help but read a few

But right before I try to post

I turn and close the view...

I hope in time I'll find a way

to leave this all behind

To try and find a way to stop

these thoughts within my mind...

To Those Who Wait

You stand above the clouds today

that once were in your mind

They're now but little stepping stones

to leave it all behind...

You're free to go where you now please

there is no more restraint

Go to those who wait for you

to meet and reacquaint...

Do You Remember Me

Do you remember me old friend?

I wonder if you do

Just had to write and let you know

I often think of you...

Throughout the years I've heard your words

some got me through the pain

The memories of our glory days

would often fall like rain...

At first a little drop or two

a thought within my mind

And then a scene would quickly form

of days we left behind...

Emotions flood my tender heart

they bring both smiles and tears

My friend, I love you still today

and have for all these years...
