When I New

It seems like a world away
When we met on that hot summer day
To me it was just plain to see
That you should be with me
When you turned and looked my way
I could almost hear you say
You felt the same way too
And that's when I knew
all i needed was you.

The Gift

I have this little secret that I've never told
I once asked god for the gift of love
Yes
It was you I wanted to hold
Now many years have come to pass
And still I remember when
I cried and begged for you each night
My love, may heart, my friend
Yes thirty years have come to pass
And still I remember when
I once asked god for the gift of love 
And he also gave me a friend.

The Total Bliss of Emptiness

Those nagging feelings of despair 
Are running rampant threw the air
There is no stopping this despair
For it is raging everywhere
Then as fast as it was here
It left again though it is near
But then again on occasion
There's extreme exhilaration
And when there's flat out emptiness
There's times when that is total bliss

The Fear Within

There is a fear that lurks within
It courses straight and true
I don't know even why it's there
I haven't got a clue
If I could but once again
I'd start my life anew
Without the dread and emptiness
Yes all I need is you.

That Place Where I Can Hide

I hate it when the dread is near
I don't know what to do
That feeling that i have is fear
Seams
I'm waiting on a cue
When those feeling creep back in
They leave me lost inside
I'm looking for that place again
That place where I can hide
Until I figure out a way 
To put them all to rest
I'll have to try and fight and say
Till then i'll do my best.
