Claudia

I love you now like I  loved you then,
For me nothing has changed,
Yet every day we are growing more apart,
Our lives so rearranged,
It's not ur fault, nor is it mine, I'm just left feeling alone,
Confused by so much, misunderstandings given through a phone,
Where have we gone we have lost our way due to the basics of our life,
Where is the claudia who showed me i was loved, who wanted to be my wife,
The happiness that once shone in your eyes everytime you looked my way,
Replaced now by shadows and anger more doubt every day,
These things are not imagined, because I feel them, they are real,
And I love you to much to give up on us that wasnt in the deal,
I know we are a lot to take on sometimes, but I used to be worth it in ur eyes,
Now I feel like any day now u might just say goodbye,
Something needs to happen for us to find our smiles once more,
We need to put our love ahead of life so much more,
I'm sorry that my desire to live out my one true dream,
Caused you to look at life as a individual and not a team,
I hve failed In many ways to understand the reasons why,
All I no for sure is uncertainty makes me cry.

If He Still Had a Voice

IF HE STILL HAD A VOICE..
The day the angels came, i didnt then know why,
Untill i saw my fathers eyes, as he began to cry,
I had to tell you dad, that i was not alone,
My family that had passed, just come to take me home,
There is no shame in being the best dad that u can be,
You are my inspiration, the man inside of me,
Mum, youve always been there, my place to land incase i fall,
Dad you taught me pride, to be strong and stand up tall,
We are parted for short time, ill come get you when its right,
Nothing can change gods timing, noone wins that last fight,
Everytime you shed a tear, i too stop to cry,
But even if we got the chance,...could we have said goodbye??,
When you think of me now, please smile and dont be sad,
For now i am the angel, for both my mum and for my dad,
I am with you every waking hour, and i watch u as you sleep,
Waiting for u to heal the pain inside, I know u both still keep,
Now is NOT the time to follow heartache to get you here,
For i need you to keep on teaching, im still listening i still care,
I hope that in time, to each other you will be,
All the greatness and the good you both installed in me,
I thankyou for my life, for the laughter and the fun,
I will cherish you both foreva, your devoted loving son.

Intensity

How does someone who has no one, escape being alone,
I'm left empty and broken, and no place left to call home,
Why do they all choose to leave scars, Causing damage beyond repair?
When all I did was love every single one of them, all I did was care,
I know you come in just as you leave, on your own to meet your maker,
I don’t want to live, as I die, I've got too much to give, I'm not a taker
Where do you go when your days turn into nightmares? Your Reality becomes harder to accept,
What do you do when you need someone to hear you? and the pain is so out of your depth,
I'm drowning in the failure of what my life has now become,
But nobody is listening, they aren't here now, family's done,
Where do the ones who can't forgive go to release some of this pain?
When will I be good enough for the ones I love again,
My emotions though, are changing, my thoughts are lost in the dark,
Betrayal has now changed me its branded its final mark
Where do the ones who are hard to love find inner peace?
Why don’t I matter more send me one please at least?
I just need to understand where those people go to heal,
When empty is the most common feeling that they feel,
When the silence is deafening, all that matters is now gone,
Too much to cope with, too much went wrong,
The walls that are built now will forever stand tall,
Please Let me get up and heal from that last fall.

If He Still Had a Voice

(a friend of mines son died some years ago while out with his dad working on the rubbish truck)..

IF HE STILL HAD A VOICE..
The day the angels came, i didnt then know why,
Untill i saw my fathers eyes, as he began to cry,
I had to tell you dad, that i was not alone,
My family that had passed,  just come to take me home,
There is no shame in being the best dad that u can be,
You are my inspiration, the man inside of me,
Mum, youve always been there, my place to land incase i fall,
Dad you taught me pride, to be strong and stand up tall,
We are parted for short time, ill come get you when its right,
Nothing can change gods timing, noone wins that last fight,
Everytime you shed a tear, i too stop to cry,
But even if we got the chance,...could we have said goodbye??,
When you think of me now, please smile and dont be sad,
For now i am the angel, for both my mum and for my dad,
I am with you every waking hour, and i watch u as you sleep,
Waiting for u to heal the pain inside, I know u both still keep,
Now is NOT the time to follow heartache to get you here,
For i need you to keep on teaching, im still listening i still care,
I hope that in time, to each other you will be,
All the greatness and the good you both installed in me,
I thankyou for my life, for the laughter and the fun,
I will cherish you both foreva,  your devoted loving son.
