Remember all the lovely words;
The ones I spoke with ease?
They’ve left me now, like south-bound birds;
My fevered mind found peace.
That jubilee, you hoped to see,
The happy circus show,
Packed up the tent, washed off their paint;
Exposed, they had to go.
The elephant, he charged the tent;
The crowd went wild with rage;
But all the while, you sat and smiled;
You knew I’d break the cage.
They’ve laid me here, alone inside,
This wretched box of pine;
For I have kissed sweet suicide
No longer is life mine.
Time marches on, as well we know;
It stops for not a man.
But if I could, I’d break the glass;
I would, and start again.
I was there
I saw it all
I witnessed your
Illusion crawl
It begged; it bade
It licked my heel
It was convincing your hopes
To make me real
My heart cried
When I saw it die
It shattered and fell
I watched it lie
Lying is deceitful
But purrs like a cat
It makes perceptions skewed
Then glues them like that
What now I ask
I’m left with despair
Seeing you again
Means she’s not there
She’s gone
That girl you knew
She’s just another woman
Who can’t measure up to you
Relationships change
So now you can see
I’m not as great
As you’d made me out to be
My masks are gone
I won’t play the game
Scattered on the floor
Your illusion of me is all that remains

There was music mixed with melody
Unique the song we wrote
Our love composed the lyrics
Every line, each chosen note
Won't you stay like this forever
Just the thought of you divine
The way you stroke my ego
As I'm about to lose my mind
When I urgently need to tell you
A thought that crept into my head
You never fail to head me off
That smile saying 'hush just come to bed'
My senses explode to overdrive
As reason waves and leaves
Submitting to the call you send
Until you are all my eyes can see
Don't change a thing about you
That little frown, the way you think
Where thoughts crash around and clatter
Till you quit with a devilish wink
What the hell are you saying?
Sometimes, I just do not have a clue
Whispers that go way above my head
Then I know, it's that cryptic you
I have held this hand my whole lifetime
know every fingerprint, line and scar
Never change my darling
You're perfect the way you are
I'd awaken every morning
Wondering who you'd be today?
Serious, motivated, anxious
Crazy, wild, passée
Won't you stay with me forever
I know, before a tear drop forms
I know the second you're about to cry
Just by how those eyebrows form
You're leaving me now are'nt you?
Your hands are oh so cold
Your face has lost it's colour
Your too fragile for me to hold
Stay as you are for always
I'll stay too and watch you as you fly
In my mind's eye you'll live eternal
It's just the vessel I watch die.
A silent flicker in my soul –
A dying flame to give me light;
Not fire enough to feed the coals,
Yet I am strengthened by its might
The maker of such little fire,
Is but to me a distant ire
Who cannot penetrate this shield,
Though ancient flaming sword he wields,
For I have pierced the heart of faith,
And cast it on the bitter ground –
A pearl trampled evermore
By swine that mock the wretched crown
And as I wander hopelessly
Through caverns of despair,
I search for warmth unceasingly,
But find stone hearts that cannot care
This solitude seems but a curse
When I have not the eyes to see
What glory I have left behind
To face this harsh reality.
Did I tell you, I hear voices in my head,
“Kill, kill,” I think that’s what they said.
Spoke to my therapist but then she disappeared,
Police questioned me, which I found weird.
She’d been stabbed sixty times outside her front door,
They called me in again and questioned me some more.
That morning I woke covered in blood
I buried the evidence near the marsh, in the mud
I sat at home, the voices loud in my head,
As the news report said now one hundred women dead.
The voices etching the same word like a razor sharp quill,
In my brain, “Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.”
I need fresh air, on this lovely, hot summer’s night
But I find I’m standing behind the couch, watching you in plain site
Turn around, look, you’ll see me with a knife
Watch closely while I slowly take away your life…
See you soon
You knew the truth
about me
those sneaky ways
that get these human and understandable needs met
you just wanted me to "get it" and I am still trying
really, I am
to understand these human needs and have it all "ok"
even though
sometimes anger gets the better of me
more than anyone
your patience was appreciated
and even though I played my stupid games of hide and seek
thinking the game would go on forever
(and intellectually knowing this
wasn't a game but that we both could really learn something here)
I still play
my child in tow
trying to reparent myself in a healthy way
like I wasn't being before
I know there are no feelings of "malice" -
and further to that you probably wish me well
and I want you to know that it's all OK
I am bigger than my hurt and as long as I can strive to really LOVE
I know my life will be well.

If I had done exactly what Jesus asked me to do,
this bitterness wouldn't hang heavily over me
and my broken spirit that can't find a patch of blue...
when the cloudy skies wouldn't defy serenity!
I should have obeyed and understood when He spoke aloud,
" The blessing begins with the promise, my child! "
And as His thundering voice echoed to make me strong,
but I refused to listen and please Him instead!
A soldier of Christ never takes off his armor too quickly,
to risk losing everything so hardily- earned and valorously- achieved;
his bold faith always sustains him when the battle begins, to lead
him in the arena, where he'll be hailed for his splendid victory!
Lead me, Lord to the gates of eternal bliss,
never to turn back and remember a life dedicated to pleasures:
like those of merry fools and seductive fornicators...
sipping their intoxicated drinks without haste!
My character wasn't so perfect...I should have been honest,
pious, forgivable, lovable, thoughtful, comprehensible and wise;
temptation was stronger than I...overpowering my judgment,
unable to discern that the blessing began with the promise!

Your Body has departed but your soul has risen
I search for you and always listen
I look to the heavens for a glimpse to see
But all I have is just a sweet memory
Even though you’re gone your presence left a sign
So I’m holding on to it for a lifetime
The way you lived affected us all
There was something about you that I often recall
The kindness of your heart the gentleness of your touch
I remember it all because it mattered to everyone so much
Even though you’re gone your presence left a sign
So I’m holding on to it for a lifetime
I walk in your footsteps when I have the will
But your mark was incredible and your shoes are hard to fill
The light you had will forever glow
Others can only hope to walk in your shadow
Even though you’re gone your presence left a sign
So I’m holding on to it for a lifetime
I will try and go on the best way I can
Knowing you has made me the best that I am
Images of you still make me laugh and cry
I will love and remember you until the day I die
Even though you’re gone your presence left a sign
So I’m holding on to it for a lifetime
I turned around and you weren’t there
I couldn’t find you I lived the greatest scare
I don’t know where you went you did not share
Now I’m all alone as I sit and stare
Lord tell me this is some sort of game
I have a lost love and I now feel the shame
I feel responsible and I take the blame
I loose my voice when I call your name
I searched for you high and low
I tried to think if the places you would go
I’m desperate and I don’t know what to do
I’m blind with the only thought of finding you
Lord tell me this is some sort of game
I have a lost love and I now feel the shame
I feel responsible and I take the blame
I loose my voice when I call your name
There’s been no letter there’s been no call
When was the last place I saw you I don’t recall
Others join in to look more each day
The reality of you coming home is washing away
Lord tell me this is some sort of game
I have a lost love and I now feel the shame
I feel responsible and I take the blame
I loose my voice when I call your name
I will never stop looking until your found
If I do my mind will never be again sound
I’ll retrace the steps over and over
Because in my heart I need a final closure
Your image appears all the time and everywhere I look and see
It brings out all kids of emotions deep within me
I see it in the sand before the tide washes it away
I see it in the clouds on a bright sunny day
I have to move on from your passing but it hurts even though it doesn’t show
But it’s so hard to do it because I see your face everywhere I go
I see it in the shadows where there is no light
I see it in the stars when I gaze at them at night
I see it in many things and it makes me always recall
I see it in my own reflection which affects me most of all
I have to move on from your passing but it hurts even though it doesn’t show
But it’s so hard to do it because I see your face everywhere I go
I see it in the water when I wash my own face
I see it in the little things that are overlooked and out of place
I see it in everything and it reminds me of the past
One thing is for certain your memory will always be with me and forever last
I have to move on from your passing but it hurts even though it doesn’t show
But it’s so hard to do it because I see your face everywhere I go
