Hanging On...

Silently...
Patiently... 
I wait for my time 

day after day
always the same
knowing somehow
progress is being made

if even only 
(watching from the distance)

hanging on
to every word
everything You've ever said
You're hanging on
and won't let go
You have my soul, You're in control


dangling here
over the depths of hell
with eyes fixed
on the gates of Heaven

will I ever pull myself up
or am I too weak
in time letting go
only to drop

somehow knowing
(You'll be there to catch me)

hanging on
to every word
everything You've ever said
You're hanging on
and won't let go
You have my soul, You're in control


no one around
yet not on my own
trying to find
the courage within

looking back at where I began
(I can't turn away now)


hanging on
to every word
everything You've ever said
You're hanging on
and won't let go
You have my soul, You're in control


Too far
Too far have I come
Too far to let go

So close 
So close am I now 
So close to my home

My God

What You May

Your soft hand upon my body,

Caressing me as I lay

Yours to do with,

What you may.

 

I shutter as I feel you

Deep within

Under my skin

Goosebumps, shivers, and tingles

Fill me as I lay

Yours to do with, 

What you may.

 

No longer still,

Arching, rolling, and clenching

To the sheets

Silent still

As I lay

Yours to do with, 

What you may.

 

Enjoying every moment

No longer silent

Moaning, groaning, and whispering

Your name

As I lay

Yours to do with,

What you may.

 

I can feel the

Energy, compassion, and love

As your tender lips touch mine

I watch in awe

As I lay

Yours to do with, 

What you may.

 

My heart races faster every minute

As your lips move over my body

I can hear, feel, and taste

The words from your mouth

As I lay

Yours to do with,

What you may.

 

Holding you close,

As you lay

Mine to do with, 

What I may.

A Loss For Words

Staring into space
Eyes fixed on your face
Trying to retrace
How did I get to this place
 
Together we feel so right
Here with you tonight
Arms wrapped around me tight
Become one, we might
 
Your heart with mine
Steadily keeping time
Can this be a sign
Of a feeling I can't quite define
 
My thoughts astray
As I look for words to say
Here I as lay
Be yours, I may
 
As you kiss my brow
Trying to tell you somehow
Here and now
I make this vow
 
With you
My life, I start anew
To myself, I am true
Always, I will love you

Understanding

We can't see past the decision
we don't  understand
lost in our minds
trapped by the possibilities
where will it take us
how will we know
for answers to unfurl
look deep in your soul
we have trouble seeing past the decisions
we have yet to understand
the picture we start to see
though the focus is not quite clear
as our hearts develop 
as we learn within to grow
the answers are even closer now
as we dig thru the layers in our soul
we see clearly thru decisions made
knowing now understanding is not needed 
a portrait in front of our eyes
the most beautiful sight ever since
grown to our fullest potential
now comfortable with our own
the true answers lie within our hearts
but eternal knowledge comes from the soul

The Storm

Out in these peaceful waters
You by my side
It all seems so perfect
To you, my eyes can not lie
 
Looking to the skies
The storm overhead
I see it in your eyes
The same shade of grey
 
Knowing where we're headed
This look of saddness
My heart begins to sink
I feel there is nothing I can do
 
The waters become rapid
Waves pouring in
Struggling as I drift away
Farther from where I began
 
Amongst all the chaos
You reach out and catch my hand
Pulling me in
You hold me close
 
Afraid to lose, I shut my eyes
As we hold on for dear life
The most perfect thing we've found
Here in each others arms
 
The noises subside
As the storm passes by
I open my eyes
To see you still with me
 
The waters once again clear
Trying to find our way
It's like we can see forever
All there is, is me and you
