Dreams of the Night

The stars shine so bright Whenever it’s night. I love that great scene, Feels like a dream. When the moon is above, White as a dove, I just sit and smile If only for a while. The fireflies light up the ground, Headlights light up the town. Crickets start to sing me to sleep: My soul, the Lord’s to keep. Dreams dance inside my mind As the frogs keep time. A shy sonata playing in my head As dreams…

Better Off

Today is not the day to get better, It’s cold outside and I am alone. I saw a picture of us together, I think about calling you on the phone. The sky at the moment is very grey- I believe they said later it might rain. I stare past glass, not knowing what to say, Searching for words to describe my pain. They told me that I would find somebody new Who would really care, who would love me. If only I…

Valentine's Day

Valentine’s Day

Is there a way to your heart? Cause I’ve had mine pulled apart And I’ve been searching for somebody new- Somebody who is just like you.

We may bicker and we may fight But in the end, I’ll think of that night When I first felt that sweet feeling Of finally flying and of healing.

Cause darling, I’ve felt pain in the past But now I’m hoping that you and I will last. I’m turning away from those past…

To Be Or Not To Be?

To be or not to be, what’s it really matter in the end? Cause I’ve spent the last seven years searching for a friend. Wrote the exact same words and called it innovative, Looked in the mirror and started calling myself creative: A sad semblance of both my past and future self, Who focused and focuses on nothing but his wealth. The ink and pages are all fading so fast away But perhaps the real…

III. Graceful Light

Are you watching through the cracks of the floor? Can you stand to even try to breathe anymore? Are you frightened right own to your very core? Can you wait for the day when you shall soar? The rhythm of your heart will return, little bird. Just focus on the focus beautiful noise you’ve heard. The Earth spins around each and every day In it’s own special and quite recognizable way. Are you walking…

II. Dying Light

To paint the keys of the piano all white, To cut the long waving string of a kite. To bathe the pages all in a shade of red, To wake every single hour in your bed. The waking world shall stand tall tonight As each of us rushes into the dying light. We remember, all of is, what we have said As we walked the paths where we tread. The pages are filling with ink: rushing over As the women and children…

I. Precious Light

Sing, oh blessed morning, in the cold winter light; Dance, oh you beautiful moon, in the warm night. I have been wandering, searching for stars above: I now hope that they shall lead me to people I love. Writing on the bones of the ones who came before; Praying that one day I will soon grow and soar. Where have you gone, precious light of my life? Please, light, rid me of all my pain and my strife.
