Child of Summer

Tender joy of life
Breath upon the tidal wind
Hopes journey abound

Inspired by the light
Laughter on cumulus clouds 
Small footprints on sand

Becoming spiced scent  
 Warm transcendence into blush 
Intertwined in bliss

Father

The sun bitter cold
Down my cheek is tragedy
My soul sits in pain

Mind in dark shadows
Seeking last light perfect blooms
To make tangible 

Heart drifts with a cloud
Blemishes fade on the wind
He was perfection

Love's Ghost

Apparition pain
Soul blatantly split and void
Barren theme my heart 

Haunted fragments wild
Storm vehement frustration
Swept by loves embrace

Summer Lover

Kiss soft as rains dew
Touch as light as a warm breeze
My summer lover

Perfect

So this is my life… 
I cried... as I stared at the ceiling
So this is my life…
It crossed through my mind again

Sixteen years I've wasted…
Sixteen years just stopped… 
Just devastated… 

I would have stayed forever you know
I would have continued to give my all
But lies have a way of destroying… 
One lie tore down my “perfect walls”
 
Could I have rebuilt that image? 
And still stayed true to myself?  

One look at the mate I had chosen…
Sealed fate 
My heart put our marriage to an end 

I’m sorry it stopped so abruptly
I’m sorry that “time” couldn't heal
But when I look upon my lovers face
I need to know it’s real

I walked away that summer
I rebuilt my life again
With truth about myself  
Truth about him
 
“Perfect walls” 
“Perfect people”
“Perfect marriage”

Don’t deceive yourself in that lies image.
