Where Once

Where Once it was as perfect as it seemed
To perfect to be a dream
For dreams eventually end
And reality takes its place
Where you are left alone
Staring sadly at your own face
Where Once there was a star bright smile
Is only an empty canvas
On which a symbol of joy will never grace
For the lonely to hold the empty
To awake in the arms of a ghost
Like having a party for one
And you are the guest and host
Where Once was a hand to hold
Now there is only a shoulder cold
No one to cry with
No one to care
No one to laugh with
No one is there
Forget what you want to remember
Only remember what you want to forget
Where Once was certainty
There is only regret
The fairy tales have all died
No morning sun to arise at dawn
The dreams are all empty
The fantasy is all gone
Where Once upon a time
The future seemed so clear
Now the journey is frozen
Tainted with fear
Fear of the unknown
Fear of the truth
Fear of the lie
Where Once there was trust
There is now only a goodbye

Sad, Sad Such a Sad Little Man

Look in the mirror before you judge, 
Try and push me but I will not budge.
So point your finger back at you, 
And place the blame on what you do.
A shallow man painfully insecure,
Containing nothing of value nothing pure. 
Arrogance and ignorance two words that define thee, 
Projecting your anger to mask your misery.
You ridicule what you can’t understand or comprehend, 
Never reaching out to offer a hand to lend.
Placing the blame on those that surround, 
So don’t be surprised when there is no one around. 
Your so called friends will eventually leave,
The loneliness will make it hard to breathe. 
Yet you will fight and scream and scratch away, 
Only to wake up to another yesterday. 
Someday you may realize your childish inside, 
Maybe brake away from the walls in which you hide, 
Or just stay sheltered in your little shell, 
Forever miserable in the place you dwell.
Unable to discourage others and me, 
The end of you would be a sight for my sore eyes to see.

The Wedding Script

The Curtains have been drawn,
The lights turn low,
Everyone gathers to see the show.
The Hero Gets the Girl,
The Hero Saves the Day,
As we all dream for a life this way.
Like Casablanca,
Or gone with the Wind,
We all remember Who, Where, When.
We fell in love,
Like we have seen on the screen,
Which turned to Reality which once was a dream.
Without though of Risk,
Without though of Chance,
You took her hand and asked for the Dance.
Like Clark Gable,
Or Fred Astaire,
You moved as if you were walking on Air.
You can find True Love,
If you know where to start.
It starts here, It starts with your heart.
Love is more than a movie,
More than a script acted out,
This is what love is truly about.
The love you share,
The dreams you share,
The Passion, the Joy, the Respect is there.
With the two of you staring.
It is already the perfect cast,
Forever is how long this love will last.
As you stare into each others eyes
You know you will always have a friend
Lights turn on, the crowd cheers… The End.

Falling In Love With Love Again

The more I give to you,
The more I cry,
A blurred vision of love,
As seen through a tear stained eye.  

I know not the reason,
For these tears, 
My lonely soul left so empty, 
As I realize all of my fears. 

I offered you all of your desires, 
No limits to what I gave.
Then you left me cold and drowning, 
In my tear filled grave. 

You said I was the one for you, 
You said I was the one you wanted.
With those chilling words of good-bye,
I am left forever haunted.

No reason was given, 
As out of my life you went.
Never able to get back,
The time we spent. 

The pain doesn't last forever, 
But it always hurts the same.
Always on the losing side, 
Of this dangerous game. 

In the morning I will wake, 
Knowing that my heart will mend.
Just to begin another mistake, 
And be broken all over again.

Take That Chance

This danger is inviting and I want it to last,
Turned to look forward and I thought of the past.
Of all the decisions both right and wrong,
Stared at each other closely as we hurried along.

Hand in hand blind leading the blind,
Without thought or care of what we would find.
Hearts beating in time blood beginning to rush,
Is this the real thing or is it just a crush?

Holding her tight we begin to kiss,
Never had a dream as real as this.
Hopelessly wishing I would not wake,
If this were a drug till death I would take.

These are the times in life when we take that chance,
When you fall so quickly at the first glance.
Eyes of emerald green take hold of my stare,
In a room full of people she is the only one there,

A snow white smile makes my stomach turn,
A voice filled with passion my heart starts to burn.
But the fire is to strong to hard to keep pace,
Smile soaked by the tears that slip down my face.

I will never forget this time and the time spent,
I don’t know if you will ever know how much they have meant,
Or how much they mean,
Because you are like no one I have ever seen,
Or have ever met.
Falling for you I will never regret.

You have touch my soul and touched my heart,
This story is not ending for it is only the start.
The start of something new no words can portray,
The connection we have will always stay.

No labels no titles no words to define,
What we share is only yours and only mine,
I am a friend for life or as long as you want me to be,
If this is meant to ever go further I guess we will see.

Income Pete

There is something missing here.
Is there a sign or letter, 
That could lead me to something better?
I was lost in love, 
Now I am lost without,
A heart so warm now filled with doubt. 
I stand alone, 
Become half of once was whole. 
From the missing piece that you stole. 
You stole my Love,
You stole my Laughter,
Left me unhappily ever after. 
Like a puzzle with a missing piece, 
Absent of Love I face defeat, 
Always unfinished I am Income Pete.

Where Did My Life Go

Where did my life go?
I used to have a path
I used to have a care
I used to have a dream
But I am nowhere close to there

Where did my life go?
I used to have goals
I used to have a plan
I used to look forward
But now I no longer can

Where did my life go?
I used to wake with a smile
I used to laugh till I cried
I used to have a good life
But my good life has died

Where did my life go?
I used to try and press on
I used to fight to make it through
I used to try and hold on
But there is nothing left… 

…Without you
