Its not the love that I was looking for its not the tears we shed
together its not the cries....its a secound chance its a time where
we can be we and I can't be i ....a secound try a time were we
can live not even to learn...close ur eyes and you can trust me
fall back and ill catch u..for a secound chance?
when the truth arrived
enveloped, it was November
and at the inception
standing quiet
the rags of innocence
were ripped from my eyes
I mourned what never was
grasping at
this breech of faith
both hands reached
and disappeared
into the vapour,
where once
you laid to rest
paper fluttered down
I hadn’t realised
I had given more
than I intended
never seeing the game
that was played
in the shadows
of the day
my life-force was attained
belief in humanity
suffered and shattered
from the burn
of this betrayal,
paranoia sits with me
hand in hand
my fingers tapped out the tune
as the veracity of this
deception,
was validated
time and time again
So I am not mad
but grieving
All this time I thought we were,
Now I'm no more than a stranger.
ALl this time I dreamed of love,
But dreams sometimes aren't enough.
Tomorrow has come with the end,
No longer can we of love pretend.
Today the sun shines on you,
My sky, my mood are darkened blue.
All this time we played a game,
A game and only I am to blame.
Yesterday is gone without a trace,
Nothing left, not even your face.
Maybe time won’t end
So I can feel these feelings
Forever, for all time
I want to hold them
Deep in my heart
To always have these feelings
However, It seems as time moves on
I lose pieces of you
My memories start to fade
And my heart loses a beat
I lose my special senses
Those that hold love
I’m decaying inside
It’s been so long
You had loved me
You were such a big part
Of my loving life
Maybe time won’t erase all
Of what we had together
Maybe life will keep alive
What we held true
I will never forget
No matter what is lost
That I hold your love
Forever and always

Today I saw him
He never even noticed
We had met before
In another time and place
We loved each other freely
Today he noticed
That I stood before his eyes
He remembered me
All the love that we once shared
In another time and place

Time in a bottle
If it were only possible to have bottled the past
To seal it so that time could last
My past had many good years
A family life I had no tears
And now to open that bottle in this part of my life
Instead of tears have more time with my wife
To your will I bend like a wind blown reed,
And I will follow wherever you lead.
Ever since the first time I heard you say my name,
I have never been the same.
The winds that twist in my heart,
Have nearly torn my soul apart.
Ever since the last time I saw you I have been filled with woe,
I wish I never had to let you go.
As the days pass into months and years,
It only increases my fears.
If only you could feel the pain I've known,
If only you hadn't sown the seeds that you have sown.
When the walls come tumbling down around me,
Where will you be?
Will you be with Her or will you be with me,
Because I truly want to believe...
That I have had your heart to this day,
Even though yours has strayed.
I have loved you from first sight,
You were my everything, my heavenly light.
As it begins to rain, I pray,
Please let him come home to stay.
When the world crumbles around me,
Where will you be?

If I have to spend my life thinking, then I will spend it thinking of you.
If I have tears to cry, I'll cry them for you.
If I have to give up my wings, I'll forever walk beside you.
If I had to lose someone It would never be you.
I would never ask to be the most important person in your life, that would be asking
to much .
I ask only that from time to time you would think of me and smile, remembering how
I touched your life.
I will always have you in my mind, always till the end of time.
nothing you say will ever replace the pain you caused, it will always remain, like a
picture in a frame the markings on my heart stained my brain. visions of you burned in my
mind consume my thoughts, as i replay our love time to time i can never find the reasons
why i shed so many tears over so many lies, though i constantly try. nothing i do can
replace the time that was wasted over a fictional fairy tale, sifting through the lies is
like trying to read braille to someone who is deaf, but still with every breath i breathe
i yearn for you, its sad to say there is nothing i can do, and i will always love you.
GOOD DAY C.J!
Methinks it be time to blink at the sun
Look at your lover and say “good morning hon”
Perhaps a cup of joe and then you can go
Go to that tree where all the doves know
They know how vibrant and lovely you be
Lovelier than that old oak tree
It stands so tall with birds perched inside
And when they stop singing is for them to decide
Now perhaps it’s time to take a leisurely stroll
Making up for the time the clock once stole
Take your lover’s hand and walk him to that lake
The one that swans and minnows never forsake
Then you return home from a lovely jaunt
You with ebony hair and slinky body with which to taunt
It’s warm inside compared to out of doors
And now maybe you can begin your daily chores
So he helps you with breakfast, bacon and eggs
Whilst he is hypnotized by your lithe little legs
Now it’s time for your meaningful morning meditation
But if your lover’s like me it’s time for his illegal medication

WHETHER TOGETHER OR APART STILL SHE RULES MY HEART
Here I go again but the tune this time seems wrong
There we go again but singing an oddly different song
Last time we said goodbye somehow we both knew
We knew to stay apart but then our smiles would accrue
I would laugh and she would giggle just like a kid
But we both knew what loving each other the last time did
What was done was done but sworn to soon return
Alas, although it always went wrong we’d never learn
She would cry and I would wipe her tears
She heard the roaring crowd and I their cheers
People who knew us wanted us to stay as one
And so a repetitious tale was thusly and quickly spun
We never talked of marriage or matching wedding rings
Because both of us knew what love sometimes brings
It can deliver one to Heaven or cast one off to Hell
And that repetitious tale was one I’d often tell
Today I know not where she lives or what she does
I just lay awake some nights remembering what once was
The only consolation is hoping love again would start
But both of us knew we were much better far apart

Bartered tears with your love adorn
Twin streams from pure, spring founts born
Sappy pores gushing with showers of contrition on christening morn
Exchanged with vows that o'er time were weathered and torn
Briny waves of doubt crested; fealties' banks shorn
Now bottled memories silted with salty tears forlorn
Eroding tear ducts inundated and with passing time worn
Brackish vapor distilled with rotting dreams; with nauseous fumes borne
Corroded promises mired in a dry bed of scorn
Cloaked in callous foliage spited with thistle and thorn
Meeting at the jaded fork; once vibrant streams solemnly mourn
Stagnant puddles awaiting reincarnation; at next season's fertile rains reborn
Cloud 9 can be a lonely place
So much time and so much space
If only you would visit now and then
My time would be worth the loneliness I've spent
It's a bitter sweet kind of bliss
surrounded by clouds, and sunshine, and beauty...
But you're not here to spend it with me
So you see, cloud 9 can be a sad place
If sitting alone, by yourself is the case
Death feels good when you're choking on your last breath
With tons of worry and fret
No consciousness is left
Constantly in a daze
Just counting down the days
But it never ends
I awaken another day and you're not here
How will my time be spent
Broken down in a hell bent
No one to turn to
No one to vent
It's a beautiful image
But hollow inside
As black as the eyeliner that masks the eyes
Sitting alone
Not wanting to go home
In a room to imitate
In the right mind state
To contemplate
While she's hating the wait
As time decided her fate
It’s time to close pages of love
It’s time to lose this burden inside me
No heartache will stay in this heart
No picture of you and me will hang on my walls
I’m trying to forget you
Just to have my own day
I’m trying to forget you
And hope to find my own way
All my cries had turned into river
Flowing down into the sea
And the pain has gone to heaven
Well now it’s time for you to cry
I’m trying to forget you
Just to have my own day
I’m trying to forget you
And hope to find my own way
Well life is not all about love
But everything seems to need love
You should learn the meaning of love
So you won’t hurt me anymore
And you won’t hurt them anymore
I’m trying to forget you
Just to have my own day
I’m trying to forget you
And hope to find my own way
Just to forget you
that's all I wanna do
to forget you
