Lonely

I tried to grow my shadow
But it slowly faded away
High noon sun melted away my dreams
Of not being alone

The Time I Grieve With You


Let’s laugh and forget our memories of similar sorrows
We know the pain
Though similar, will not be cured today
But comfort will be found for the moments of reflection

We don’t compare or even consider each other as a playing card
And instead use each other 
As a game piece to help move past the game of life
Or as a ladder to climb 
Above the fogged mind and get a good look
Around the parts of our lives we may be missing during
The time I grieve with you

Sand Between My Toes


Beneath the pavement is the beach
I’m so excited it’s so close to me
Beneath the concrete there was always lying sand

The Kiss


A kiss to the air
Floating free
Dancing between misery and sorrows

Touches softly upon your sleeping head
Peaceful grace
Swaying between tender and warm

Rest well and peacefully
Dream only the best
The kiss settles on happiness and love

Be There


I can't predict today or tomorrow. I can't see my nightmares or dreams before I sleep. I can say I know I'll still be hurting every time I'm awake.
I can't wait for the day I can protect you in some kind of way and still be by your side. Happy or sad, mistakes or promises, I wish I could be there now.
Your eyes tell stories of wonder and delight. Your spirit was a shining light. I followed it to the point you could no longer shine, I took it from there and created fire.

Hold Today


If I had to run away tomorrow
And none of you could come
Would any of you support me
Knowing I'll always be gone
Never speaking to you again
Maybe once in about ten years
Please hold me as close as you can
Cause I may be gone tomorrow
And I'll be missing you
Through tears that you'll never see
Through words you'll never hear
Through my heart pounding and you feeling it years later from the wind that caught word years before
So hold me while you can
Hold me while you know me

Let Us Feast

An empty cup sits in front of my thirst for you
My parched lips have reached for taste
I can't settle for any other

Your love is a water
That brings my body alive
Creating an energy that nothing can define

Your eyes full of hunger
My soul filled with food
Let us feast
