Thoughts

I smile when I talk to you
I wish to hold you tight
Yet in this cave I have to stay
and think throughout the night

The way you used to hold me
how special I would feel
And now my soul is numb within
was your love for real

You never said you wanted me
no words were even their
The tension built up inside
from memories we'd share

Everything is different now
your miles from my heart
Yet my thoughts stay with you
and wish to never part

Maybe we weren't meant to be
my heart will question why
Good bye for now but don't let go
for you I'll always try

Confusion

Feeling confusions
all lost in my head
I don't know what to do
so I turn to you instead

Your advice is hard to hear
cause your so far away
I try to take it gently
so I kneel to you to pray

Things have gone so differently
the life I tried to build
everything is all the same
this life is unfulfilled

So to you again
I turned and cried
cause in this life 
I know I tried

The Passing

I'm always here for you
and always will be
Death will not stop
my angel and me
Don't cry my children
as I watch you now
Take kindly to others
as I'v showed you how
As the sky opens up
and drops shower down
Know that my angel is rain
and I am your ground
I'll help you stand firm
and please always try
To my children we guard
My angel and I

Unspoken Words

Your standing by my side today
your words i don't believe
you said you wont give up that easy
and yet your going to leave

I cannot say good bye to you
as you walk to the door
cause good bye means forever
and its happened to me before

You still await unspoken words
as tears fall down my face
and I sit here deep in thought
With your words of gentle grace

I cannot say so long to you
as you walk to your car
cause so long feels like eternity
and that is way too far

You said you will think of me
and that i will be fine
soon i will be whole again
but it will take some time

I did not say a thing to you
I just bowed my head and cried
you put your hand upon my face 
and something inside me died

I pull away from your hand
a tear from you did drop
and when you leave i pray to God
my heart will not stop

You grab my hand with your heart
I touch your face and tear
please my love leave in silence
for good byes are what i fear

Demon Trails

A lifeless body twitching
lying on the ground
With blood and guts folding out
among the cold firm ground

Your wounded eyes beam among
the image on a cross
Thinking of the ones you love
and the life that you had lost

Trying to breathe is getting hard
knowing you talk to much
But you ask God for one last prayer
families heart you wish to touch

You have explored down demon trails
and made up very well
But seeing you forgave no one
you will follow their trails to hell

All To See

I was exposed
for all to see
I felt lucky
cause you loved me
The words we shared
as tears fell down
You touched my heart
with out a sound
The bond we had
a love so strong
Yet in the end
it all went wrong
Now i'm broken
it hurts inside
I build my wall
within I hide
The truth is out
for all to see 
I'm happy again
for I am me

Games

One moment of smiles
one time for love
I look to the sky
for the stars above
Everything is dark
my eyes cannot see
Your love is not there
twas just a fantasy
You played the game of life
now we are apart
You cleared the board of everything
the pawn was just my heart
Now everything is silent
my skies are all black
Happiness has gone from me
your heart is what i lack

Like You

Like You


I know that this is moving fast
somethings we cant control
I have a few short words to say
bare with me here I go

I like the way you look at me
and always tend to smile
I like the way you hold me tight
if only for awhile

I like it when you say my name
which really isn't much
I like it when you hold my hand
and every little touch

I liked it when you danced with me
that night when it was slow
This is when you took my breath
this is how I know

I think I said it twice before
and now I know its true
My days keep getting even better
cause I spend them loving you

Whispers

They tell me not to run
and that i mustn't hide
but still I fear the whispers
That i hear inside

Whispers getting louder yet
A shadow I can see
Cold wind blows upon my face
all he wants is me

They said that time was short
and everyone will die
This makes me want to scream
it made me want to cry

So I run down endless halls
everything moves but me
the whispers getting louder now 
with faces I can see

He grabs me and he holds me tight
cause he is running too
My soul mate found his way to me
Now whispers come for you

Image

I sit here in the quiet
with an image of a friend
A few words were remembered
and I hope it will not end

Your voice I can imagine
your face i can see
The gentle touch of your hand
the thought of you with me

An everlasting love 
that I know we share
Two hearts from which were brought
from two people who do care

And still

I sit here in the quiet 
with an image of a friend
A few words were remembered
and i know it will not end
