Hark, the Misfortunate Heart

Time unfolds
Futures untold
The sweet November wind
Of many untamed passions
Will you not share this sweetness with me?
Swiftly, so gallantly 
Lullaby dreams

The walk down the memory
The nearness of your melody
This cryptic sullen meaning
Of vitality is painless

Will you not play another song for me?
Willingly, so desperately
Relentless pain, never leaves
Unchained melancholy
Speak your words so freely
Time, oh wishful star in my dim dark sky

Deep autumn shadows
Please share your strength with me
A heart full of tears 
Pierce my soul with yours alone
A wistful, sorrowful good night

Shameless Lust

Life is nothing like you want it to be
I want to be with you forever
Do you want the same with me?
As I close my eyes at night I think of you
And the same in the morning
My Love for you is true
I thank god for sending you into my life
I hope that nothing will change
But life is funny like that
One day everything is perfect, and the next day your in a rut
But all I know is that through everything that life shall bring us
I'll be by your side every second of the way
For one day I wake up and your not with me
My life will be incomplete and then nomore shall I life
So take my hand as we walk down the road
I'll love you forever, with your heart being untold

Symphony of the Day

Diminished life spread before me
Silent and yet so sweet
An angel within
You are 
Mine

Rays of the beating heart
Within my womb as
You are now
Anxious yet
Ecstatic

Fearful of your life ahead
Time growing shorter til
The end but
Now is
You

And you are my day
My light and hope
The new beginning
My sweet
Melida

For now you are mine
Mine til end my
One and only
My lifted
Savior

My Love Your Death

Take the dagger, grab it tight
Thrust it in with all your might
Show me how you loved seeing me cry
Show me how you loved seeing me die
You took my heart thought you gave it might
But all you did was grab to tight
You were my strength, my life to live
But all you did was give right in
I wanted to show you how I loved
But all you saw was all the drugs
The need to hurt, the need of pain
All came at once right through my veins
Traveling at the speed of light
I took it in with not a single fright
To tough to tell, not easy to yell 
As the thoughts get darker, I'll make you see
You might have tried, but you didn't kill me
