Starlit nights

A twilight sky Without a moon The stars shine brightest Sole lights in view All of space wide open Reaching towards the beyond Promising eternal wisdom Should I enter the fog Yet one thing holds me back A string tied 'round my heart Holding me like gravity As it has right from the start So tell me dear which way to steer Show me the path most right And guide me through that spacey fog Into those starlit nights

Post it note

For all the good in my life For the love that we have shared All the smiles beneath the sun Gentle fingers in my hair For all the kisses gladly given And the hugs which I've received I thank you here and now For reminding me to breathe

Pitch black night

My heart is torn What can I say My heart pulled ever Two different ways To stay with my known Or to believe my heart's right Which path should I follow Towards that pitch black night With no compass to guide me And no shore in sight Which way should I turn In this pitch black night No granted guidance No choice more right Will you ask me to follow you In that pitch black night Will you ask me to trust you Will you ask me to fight Because only for you Will the world see my might I'll tear down all walls Shine as the sun, bright And when all's said and done I'll stand by your side For you are my all You are my sole light Burning bright as the day In that pitch black night

A Sailor’s Lament

oh a pitcher of cider may well make me merry and drive the cold from my bones but the warmth of a woman is by far the greater when it comes to warming my home and home how I’ve missed it these long years away my seafaring heart grows weary so I leave this to you, you brave younger lads and head home to see me my deary

Now listen close men, I’ve a story to tell you may know it for you’ve lived it, too the ocean is calling, pulling us far from land but home calls our heart sure and true yet fear not young lads, you’ll be home soon as soon as the journey is done and you’ll take your pleasure wherever you can be it spirits or a spirited one

so make merry your lives, out there on the sea sailing through freedom so blue and when you grow weary just raise up your glass and sing this song to your crew it’s the only thing that we have to pass on the burden we’ve borne through these years take pleasures now, for they’re naught to last and then go home and find a love, true go home and bid the ocean adieu

just a little ditty for my good friend Kira

Please

I shed a tear when I awoke today..,

For the silent loss of promised hope disappeared behind a puff of smoke just a blink and the moon was gone.

A slow caress traced down my face and my heart soared into outer space; a shooting star now no more than a memory. 

Please, my love, don’t leave. Please, my love, come back to me.

Hello all. I’ve been out of town visiting family and haven’t had great internet. I’ve made it back now and decided to make a small montage of what Zach and I were up to. Hope you enjoy.

Smile

Smile For all those small moments worthwhile Those fleeting glimpses that float by The smile of a stranger The sunset greeting the night Smile It's all we have, all we need, To pass these miles
