Instead of sun, I miss the rain
My heart knows joy as much as pain
If my heart should not return
Should the fire cease to burn
Sing a song for me in vein

Young love always tasted sweet
On the lips of love’s deceit
Until my eyes were open wide
Lonely I would run and hide
Only when you would appear
Rising from all doubt and fear
It washes away with the tide

I can look into your eyes, like stars
A million miles away
I can dive into your heart and not
Hear anything you say

With you my spirit flies so far
Please don’t make me land
The castle crumbling starts, I’m taught
As the ocean hits the sand

Locked away and hidden
Old scars have come to surface
That should have been forgiven
And should have served their purpose

Why now must these ghosts haunt me
And wound me in my sleep
When I close my eyes I still see
It’s caused my heart to weep

“Across the Sky”

So, on my stone
“I loved them all”
I was alone
I loved too much
For her, I see
My heart did fall
She’s not for me
Nor is her touch

She never knew
At least I think
How my heart grew
As time passed by
Oh how I failed
As ships do sink
That should have sailed
Across the sky

Six feet under
It is my time
Will you wonder,
What went wrong?
Here’s the answer
Here is the rhyme
“Love’s a cancer”
This is my song

Penetrating is the stare
Of one who loves.

Reciprocating mirror;
An endless glance.

Yes I know, I feel it too.
It fills the room.

Hearts start beating in rhythm.
We can not blink.

No moment will be wasted.
No way, not here.

Starting now is forever.
Ending never.

Nor will my heart ever fade
Your eyes shine bright

Like the end of a tunnel
Filled with despair

You saved me, not once but twice
Once just right now

Also the first time we met
You gave me hope

No, I cannot look away
Please don’t make me

My breathing deeper
My thoughts on you
Your way is cheaper
My way is true

I feel like singing
But cannot speak
My eyes are gleaming
It’s you I seek

Your thoughts are pure
Yet you are not
I am your cure
It’s me you’ve caught

You mustn’t know
The way I feel
My eyes wont show
And never will

Your icy claws
They clench my soul
The bitter chill
The dead of night
I see no stars
The ones you stole
Were all too real
There is no light

So please let go
I won’t resist
I will not fight
I see your lies
If you say ‘no’
Sweet lips I’ll kiss
I’ll hold you tight
Look in my eyes

Rejections feared
They have come true
My heart’s been seared
Romantic coup
All hopes and dreams
They fade away
Unraveled seams
Begin to fray

Eyes wide open
Still not seeing
Always hoping
And believing
I will collapse
I fall apart
There’s left no chance
For lonely hearts

When waves crash down
A sight to see
You weren’t around
They crashed on me
The setting sun
It waves goodbye
You were the one
That made me cry

“Paper Heart”

My paper heart stopped beating today.
No warning.

The wrinkled edges stopped breathing.
Too many wholes punched through
Worn too thin

The blood that once flowed through it…
Like color to the painter
Melody to the musician

The artist’s painting dries
The musician’s rhythm eventually slows

The truly original
Masters of lyrical
Borderline spiritual
Are pieces of art.

The people we meet
Who walk down the street
Who might lie, who might cheat
Are pieces of art

Myself? I am torn
My soul has been worn
My spirit forlorn
You’ve broken my heart

As silence stands still
The way that I feel
Is never too real
Without you here

My heart’s become tough
Like a stone, sharp and rough
If you look close enough
The truth becomes clear

So how can I be,
The pain that is me,
The art that you see?
Your vision, I fear
