| (Note: all are written by yours truly) This was written early this past winter... Relying On Myself I must accept this thing... Always afraid of change Trying to fight it, kicking and screaming Instead of flowing with it In order to succeed I must move forward Make something of this hole I'm left with Find stability in myself When I have always found it in others Ones around me Will always love me May not always be there... But I will be (10/11/02) ~*Beauty of Pain*~ The sun, rising On a black day A broken heart On shattered dreams Light piercing the unforgiving morning The hesitant dark Giving way to the beauty which doesn't belong Which contridicts my anguish A gentle white rain Sweeping through my soul Washing away my tears And through it, a dim rainbow Growing ever brighter Could it be hope? This is for all the people I look back upon... ~*Looking Back*~ I can't tear my eyes away from the past When the crossroads cam When I was torn from you Unexpected Like our story Don't want to let go Memories haunt me Await the past as my future Will we ever be again? Or have the winds of time Forever carried you away Our next meeting Will we be strangers? Though the air carried our promises The earth felt our love The stars held our passion The waves poured our joy And the heavens knew our dreams Never again Or someday to be Whatever ther fate Your thought shall never leave my heart This was written summer '02, after a day at the beach (go figure)... Endless Day A cool wind sweeps across the water, creating whitecaps Shaping the sand Blue-greens mix with sandy surf The sun beats down, giving everything a lethargic feel Undisturbed, worry-free magic of a summer day Total contentment Warm skin, sweet breeze, beautiful surroundings, and having your love beside you. Feels like you could live foeber in this moment The pure bliss of a never ending day This was written just after Christmas break 02-03... <Back to Life> Time to say goodbye To this paradise I've had To this happiness I've touched To our love once more As you return to your life, And forget about me I return to my life, And the pain without you Back to the silence and sorrow Back to your ignorance of me As you laugh, drink, and play I sit here and remember in tears What used to be I had it all planned, Walls built, my will power strong But just as I begin to Let you in once more You turn your back on me, And I am left behind. |
