SINGING SOLO
songer.co/songs/d13xwglmtpey1ifgc5pvm4kc [Verse 1] Remember meeting on a whim, First night stars in the dim, Loving me, forgetting him, It felt like lyrics from heaven, a sweet hymn. Those early days, all together, Made me light as a feather, No way on earth to deny, How you made me so high. Every cloud above knew my name, Now I’m wrapped in this pain, Wishing for those days, driving...

A Night Beneath the Sky
Not once did I blink, Afraid your gaze would fade at twilight’s brink, Drowning silent in your soundless sea, Begging the world to let me be, Even if death walks next to me. No past to flee, No future to believe, Only you — a shadow near, Clutching time in a crystal tear. I won’t let go of your hand, Though skies might break and...

Premium Member In The Beginning
In the beginning two lovers were born In the campus parking lot behind the student union They clung together for 60 years Until one day my wounded bird knew Her broken hip would not allow her to fly again I was too old and weak to pick her up off the floor When she fell...she said she wanted to go to...

THE WALLS ARE CLOSING IN
It feels like the walls are closing into silence each breath tighter than the last as if love itself might end our existence. I lie here, half a human reaching for air and you. You're holding back, I feel it but something sacred is taking shape. Your thoughts speak in whispers louder than words echoing in rhythm with mine confessing what lips still fear to say. Now...

Soon, you'll rise from the ashes of a torching I can't claim Child of Light, quick to catch So much power in the striking of a match, such relief in the flame If you'll burn for me again, I will wander this scorched Earth, setting fires at each turn, in your name ...

Confession
As I lay in the dark with my head about to explode All the thoughts still stir in my mind The ones I try to be ride of...leave mostly behind Like the chronic pain in my skull that never ceases to exist You linger there like a crown of thorns digging deep into me with your pointed...

STAY
Come near do not take your gaze from mine The heavens have nothing on the stars of your eyes If you're willing take my hand. let our destinies entwine If not then fear not for your company will grant me respite A reprieve from the death of love unachieved The loss of my heart to an unassuming thief To be deprived...

ill drive down the highway at one eighty two you'll say that'll we'll die but i know that can't be true cause the strings and the signs of fate pulled us together and they won't tear us apart for as long as i'll remember the moon in the sky is so far away in a big pit of darkness...

Roadkill
I am a roadkill. I had almost crossed the road when a bike hit me. I fell and he drove over my face before I realized what happened. The left side of my face was completely crushed. I lay there bleeding. I wanted to see my mother one last time. I knew I wasn't getting help. I...

Astrophilia
When mother asked me what I dreamed of becoming, I never thought it’d be: An astronomer. But here I linger, hair undone, in a wine-blotched nightgown tracking you, the sun to my earth I didn’t plan on this, but I’m doomed to be addicted to how the blossoming nebula ignites your hair, which I’ve imagined to be velvet against my fingers; I’m sentenced with a...

She appears like a quiet flow of gentle timeless and pure glowing show from a waterfall of sustenance. Smooth skin, angelic sweet of a gift touching my demonic diary memoirs, frozen in time as the pages flicker and re-writes like a newly pressed hand. Her eyes a purity of splashes of green illustrated mesmerizes me with a gaze loving silk sown teasing dress, fiery red silky worship of...

Touch from cupid
Below the starry skies a beauty dance, Love struck, I fall with every glance, With eyes and a smile full of grace, An eternity I long to spend in her embrace, Miranda, a beauty in whose eyes I wander, With all in heaven as your admirers, In love’s sweet tides, this king descends , To weave with you a story that never...

ember lover
Looking at her is like a grainy old romance warped in a bathroom mirror— time distorts in her footsteps. She’s always smiling, even when tears circle in her eyes. Only on certain nights will she pull off the mask and fracture in hush, splintering inward. She speaks little— perhaps the quietest soul I’ve known. Her days revolve around his breath, his smile...

Premium Member No one compares to you
No one compares (to you) I cry myself to sleep almost every night since you took my heart away I try to tell myself... that it's alright I can live for one more day Everywhere I go, things remind me of you the whispers on the breeze, My sorrow paralyzes, what can I do? it brings me to my knees Chorus There's no solace in...
