Life without you...

Alone in hell, I have nowhere to turn
Memories of you, my love you spurn
Unseen forces brought us together
My heart is scarred, broken forever
In my dreams, I feel your touch
My heart is full, never so much
Time heals all wounds, this is a lie
My soul is lost, wanting to die
With broken pieces, I shall carry on
Crying forever with what's left undone

Confused Love

Those simple words confuse me.

For I thought I knew what they meant.
Until I lost and won some,
My love today is for rent.

I love you.

Those simple words I know so well.
I wish for you to know.
That just liking someone is so different.
So I will say it real slow.

I L O V E Y O U

Those are the words of a million feelings.
My hopes and dreams and joys.
Little girls writing love letters.
Chasing after boys.

I…L…O…V…E…Y…O…U

Those are the words that I say to you.
I whisper them to your heart.
You turn and look back at me.
I loved you from the start.

Called Out...

I called the sun and he answered me
I called the moon and she treasured me
I called the stars and they cried for me
When I called your name only silence came back to me.

I called the earth and she befriended me
I called the sky and she watched over me.
I called the seas and they refreshed me.
When I whispered your name only silence came back to me.

I called the wind and he carried me
I called the fire and he lit for me
I called the animals and they sang for me
When I spoke your name only silence came back to me.

I’ve seen you pass with my very eyes
I’ve seen you smile and my heart just sighs

And now I cry,
For the loss I've lost

The Perfect Roses, My Dear,

These roses for you my love, today
Pink perfection in a long stemmed creation
Fragrant, like a thousand perfumes
Everlasting, eternally blessed
A gift of passion, Trinity
In our love... three elements, given
Faith, Hope and Love
Three precious gifts of light
Our love, undeniable, yet challenged
A world of conflict and separation
Attempting togetherness
Driven by wild attraction, determination
Faith in the possibility, happiness
Living in partnership, sharing
Hope in the future together, fulfilling
Loving, unconditionally, provocatively
Two lives in evolution, sharing
Living in harmony in adversity
Faith, Hope and Love,
These perfect roses for my love

For I may not know who you may be, yet

All alone... I am

The sky swarming with overshadowing clouds
Dreary, murky parallel with his own emotions
Raindrops softly fall and mask his deserted tears
His cries lost within the deafening thunder
Screaming for a familiar voice
Nothing in view but vast darkness

As though running through an endless maze
Searching for a trace of hope
Confusion consumes his mind
Looking to the sky for some clarity
In a quest to find someone to believe in

Glancing into the distance
He spots a flicker of light
Captivated he does not turn his gaze away

A shadow effortlessly approaches him
Stricken with fear he turns away
The shadow takes form and calls his name
Curious he faces it

This glow enters his heart
While filling light in his soul
Slowly hope appears in his eyes
Desire a plain smirk on his lips

Once puzzled boy has found his remedy

And then I realize he is me…

Without a happy ending…

Still searching for that flicker of light…

Silent Tears

Last night before went to bed
Thoughts of you filled my head
I have not cried this way in many of years
Onto my pillow fell six silent tears

The first was for your smile that I miss
And your tender lips I long to kiss
The second was for your gentle face
And thoughts of your loving embrace

The third came as no suprise
As I thought of your beautiful eyes
The fourth came rolling down my face
Instead of my pillow, it should be you in it's place.

The fifth came for one reason alone
I felt my love for you wasn't fully shown
I really love and miss you my dear
And there just fell...the sixth silent tear...

Slow Tears...

I look up
as a tear rolls slowly
down my cheek
I think about better days
and wonder if I'll feel that way again
you look at me
with those eyes I know so well
always serious, so deep and insightful
as though you're always in control
But not today
not now
Now you look so scared
like for once you don't have the answer
I gaze at you
looking deep into those hazel eyes
Hoping to understand
why you've said those things you did
I wonder for a moment
if this is all a dream
if I shall wake in the morning
and be relieved
you look at me
with a confusion I have never seen
slowly pull me towards you
and wipe the tears from my cheek
