| Abyss I feel so lonely, and out of sync I've come to the end of my rope I've reached my limit, I'm at the brink I've lost my way, I have no hope I am living in a black abyss And edging on oblivion I know I cannot go on like this I have to start to live again Surely somewhere deep inside myself I can find the strength that I need To start out on the long road to health And follow wherever it leads But all I can see is darkness now I don't know how to reach the light I just keep spiralling further down Though I'm trying my best to fight I need someone to throw out a line To take my hand and not let go To help me reach that one place in time Where I can take back my lost soul Copyright � 01/9/2001 Terri Lyn Stanfield All Rights Reserved |

| Always On My Mind I think of you, and it brings a smile to my face Remembering times we've been together Things we've done, talks we've had Just being with you brings joy to my heart You reached into the darkest recesses of my soul And lit them up with your unconditional love Though hundreds of miles lay between us I have only to think of you, and you are here In my heart, in my mind, surrounding me Lifting my spirits, soothing my turmoil Being everything that I need you to be And all I have to do is think of you And so I do, constantly, for I want you with me always Copyright � 11/15/2000 Terri Lyn Stanfield All Rights Reserved |
| Angel You must surely be an angel What else could explain your aura The purity of your spirit The way you glow with innocence Or the way just your presence calms The way your smile lights up a room The way your touch soothes a soul's pain There's no other explanation That comes close to doing justice In describing your sweet beauty You are an angel come to earth And after being touched by you I'll never again be the same Copyright � 12/23/2000 Terri Lyn Stanfield All Rights Reserved |
