“What if life is a lucid dream
Borne by thoughts we ourself did stream
Wherein our designated role
Is to dance atop love’s moonbeam”
———————————————————————
And if life is a lucid dream
No life, without you is a nightmare of screams
Even when sad you can make me smile
Purple thoughts of you stretch a mile
I dance atop love’s yellow moonbeam
Pulled like white fish on line in stream
Having been loved by one so gentle
Anoints my soul life made simple
Neon nights made bright by charm
You delight with kiss in warm arms
Destined to die if I ever lose you
Amethyst angst would kill you too
We are one in the same book of love
Needing each other never losing touch
Soul ties unite and we are united in love
Morning thaws into feverous noon, dusk fluxes and night dimly fades away,
Into a lonesome diurnal, nocturnal rhythm all woozy and gray.
Softly and silently you begot my heart’s love hope when there was none,
Securely you glided into my laxly life when destiny had me indolently undone.
Into my life you filled love when my fate on a platter offered me bliss trifling,
Niftly you surreptitiously left my antedated heart airless and stifling,
Gusts of malevolence vent out with arcane sprite, oh! these esoteric rifling.
Your comely face now seems to me an abhorrative visage,
Our bonds of love bleed venom from the punctured heart, painful seepage.
Urns of sorrow, my eyes grieve tormented, wailing tears toil to turn a new page.
Moan for you ever, my throbbing heart and forlorn soul,
Youth of my life spent with blood shot eyes akin burning charcoal.
Lost in fond love without you beside me, now and hear,
Over and over again teeming with your thoughts I shed many a tear.
Volcanic emotions erupt, as evoke memories of making scalding love,
Ecstatic desires drive me insane, but I live on like a lonesome mourning dove.>
Our end did not come unannounced,
I had a premonition when you started to slip away
Into the quiet distances, choking off any possible growth.
Ours had been a game, a waltz where missteps spoke their part,
My great sorrow was the pain, not letting me lose you, though you were gone.
In your eyes, I saw the despair speaking bluntly to your face,
Your voice always telling me how much space you desired,
I knew that leaving was your final act,
But the chaos within me would not let me accept the truth
That all our reconciliations, after fierce fights, were but a mere abduction.
And yet I realized you were only a habit,
Painful to say, but so true and raw,
My hopes clashed with the foolish thought
That someone like you could ever be reclaimed.
But the more I entangled myself in the web of empty promises,
The deeper I fell into the trap, lost in these wandering rhythms.
Your hollow promises, "I can't live without you,"
And nights spent crying like a child rendered me immovable,
No, they were no longer worth even an hour of endless time.
Now silence wraps around me like a final, secure blanket,
Freed from seeing you in the dawns that seek and chase me.
And like a bird from its cage, I fly towards unknown skies,
Leaving behind the smoke of a love that took everything from me but also taught me
That some paths are not meant to be followed, and some destinies – not to be bound.
Born in nineteen forty four
We met when I was sweet sixteen
We found true love forevermore
My precious love ~ my soulmate
Spending our whole life together
With precious son ~ our only one
Then creeping like inclement weather
The Big C came it knew your name
You were so strong you were so brave
You fought just like a warrior
But in the end the evil stayed
It drained you and it claimed you
When on that day you went away
December two thousand and eight
My heart it almost broke in two
Life alone ~ no life without you
Born today St Patrick's Day
You will be seventy seven
And I am sure behind that door
They’ll be partying in heaven
I raise a glass of your favourite red
Chateauneuf du Pape
Thank you for your endless love
My darling
My soulmate
My sweetest chap

There's a little cemetery at the edge of town
In the evening she comes to me, when there's no one around
I have to tell that I love her, though we're both all alone
And I miss lying with her in our bed, at our home
Why does love have to suffer, and make lovers cry
How can one keep on living, while the other one dies
We'll be joined in the end, I believe this is true
But how can I get by in this place without you
Bitter-sweet is the word, that I have learn thought my life
And having you near reminds me, Dear, you still are my wife
Next week I'll return here, I hope you come too
Until the day comes, You lie beside me, and I beside you
There's a little cemetery at the edge of town
In the evening she comes to me, when there's no one around
I have to tell that I love her, though we're both all alone
And I miss being with her in our bed, at our home
We stayed out late at night: back then;
In the warmer months of the season
We would go down to the lake for fun.
If it hadn't been for you:
We took along some music to listen to;
We would go out on the pier
We were looking up into the sky: at the moon.
If it hadn't been:
Then our eyes caught each other:
As I looked into her eyes
Those intoxicating green eyes, she had
If it hadn't been for her:
You looked right past our gaze;
When you wanted to go
Filtering through my deep soul.
But, I realized I had to make you see;
Just how deep down you mean to me;
And, with my guard let down
For a love that I thought would last: it did.
You have gotten past my wall:
Somehow
I knew I wanted and needed; more of you
I needed you to have it all; with you
You're my sugar, my honeydew.
I wanted you to see,
Now that you've had the chance to see;
It all was true; it had to be
It's always been about you; my only you
My lover: my best friend
I needed her to see;
But that was so many years ago;
It might even be a blur to me
If it hadn't been: for her, you see.
But if it hadn't been for her;
Coming by to check on me; too, see
That I was still this mess inside
If it hadn't been:
Then she walked across the room:
I find myself still yearning; for more of you
Thoughts of us; rushed through my mind.
If it hadn't been for her:
My lover, such a good time
We had over the years–oh yeah
But I'm still lost; without you here.
Now, I find myself blue:
Without you, I sure do miss you
These tears; want to—fall.
R.I.P., Shannon, I love you!
This battle brews inside me
The pain I feel in my heart ripping it apart
And my soul who wants to be redeemed
The movement of my pen beats in my chest
In my veins my words flow like the rage of rivers in storm
I’m caught in these lyrics that Awaken my soul
That cry out for eternity
Yet my heart is trodden
at times I swear it is not beating
Our hearts rose up like kindred knights ready to defend our land
but the soul was fulfilling its destiny
it would not be beaten, no matter…
it had awakened to truth
but our hearts knew only torment
and could not understand
all that was happening,
that God had a plan
so my pain exposes itself
in my thoughts manifesting to script
as it beats in my chest with a rhythmic pulse
that brings me to my knees
We had no time to prepare
Only to fight
Flailing around Hope
With all of our might
as if it were the weapon that would save us from our enemy
for that’s all we had was our sword of Hope
This battle we were not prepared for.
Like a sneak attack, it caught us in slumber
when the army of death ascended upon our world
my heart said I love you
you are my universe and life has no meaning without you
I will fight till my shallow breath abates
Till your soul takes the last blow...
And I did!
We Did!
We did not surrender
We had no chance
Our hearts fought a losing battle
My awakened soul shouts out with acceptance…
“you will one day know the reason, but not now”
For this is your time to experience
what was lovingly bestowed upon you from our God,
who knows what we need
So now I write from my pain… It helps me to cope…
It is the sword I carry…
My only Hope
I can't live without the oxygen I breathe
I would die without this air in my lungs
I can't live without the water I need
Oh for just one drop on my tongue
How did I make it this far
Through my life without you here
Because just as much
As i need these things
I need your touch
more than anything
I can't live without you
I can't breath without you
The want, this need
inside of me
Is driving me out of my mind
Like days through the desert heat
Without anything to drink
I can't live
I can't breath
Without you, without you
I've traded pleasure for pain
Bright Sunshine for rain
Though I guess I had no choice In the end
It's like trying to stay alive... Without you
, I won't survive
Might as well bury me
And be done
Oh oh oh oh
I can't live without you
I can't breath without you
The want, this need
inside of me
Is driving me out of my mind
Like days through the desert heat
Without anything to drink
I can't live
I can't breath
Without you, without you
Each craving for you
Digs my grave deeper
each memory that
plays on this loop
Makes me grow weaker and weaker
Oh oh oh oh
I can't live without you
I can't breath without you
The want, this need
inside of me
Is driving me out of my mind
Like days through the desert heat
Without anything to drink
I can't live
I can't breath
Without you, ohohohoh
…without, without you
A world without you means I cannot see
your sweet sweet smile or beautiful brown eyes
fixated with such happiness on me
as if I were, for you, a precious prize.
It means I cannot touch your gorgeous face
or let my fingers linger on your cheek
as leaning into you, I start to trace
your honeyed mouth, which does not need to speak,
for all I want to do is kiss those lips
with lusciously deliberate delight
as twilight's sun behind the mountain slips
and I am left with holding you all night!
I know a world without you means all this
because for years now, I've not known such bliss.

If I stay will you hold me
And comfort me through my tears
If I go will you miss me
And live with regret through the years
If I stay will you kiss me
With the passion you used to show
If I go will you let me
Be someone you used to know
I’ve given you all of my fragile,
Every tear I tried to hide
But love shouldn’t feel like a battle
Just to stand here by your side.
If I stay will you promise
To always be faithful and true
If I go will you fetch me
And bring me back home to you
If I stay will you keep me
Tucked safely away in your heart
If I go will you find me
Or let us drift slowly apart
If I stay will you love me
Promise to not hurt me again
If I go will you stop me
And heal this crippling pain
So tell me - is this worth saving
Or am I just afraid to be alone
If I’m already breaking without you
Maybe I’m stronger on my own
The choice I make now is forever
But what to do...I don’t know
Forgive, forget and be happy
Stay with you...or just let go...
