First Friend

for Blair
Sept 2000

The first friend I've found in a world full of strangers

A safety net here, among all the dangers

Tthe first to show kindness among the confusion

One who stays solid amid the diffusion

A beautiful ilght that shines through the dark

With the voice of an angel thats straight on the mark

A spark of beauty that lightens my eye

With a tone in her voice that makes my heart fly

With command over me I could hear through the roar

I want to believe that with you I could soar

I want to know just what it would take

I'm more than willing to put my heart at stake

Love for right now is a good thing indeed

But true love forever is just what I need





Lost in Your eyes

for Blair
Sept 2000

Sometimes i feel alone

Waiting for someone to pull

Me down from the skies

Once again, i'm lost in your eyes

Why don't you pull me down

From this heaven i'm in

I don't belong

I'm stuck in this heaven called you

All i can see are blue skies

All i can see are your eyes

And once again, i'm lost in your eyes

Pull me down from this heaven i'm in

I don't belong

I'm stuck in this heaven called you




Just Wanted

for Jamie
June 2002

a boy came to your house

a boy came to ask you out

you shut the door on his face

you didn't see his disgrace

he just wanted to say

he liked you

he just wanted to hear

you liked him too

why'd you go and shut the door

you'd never even been there before

 

a boy came to ask you out

a great guy without a doubt

this time around you didn't say no

you said alright, i'll give it a go

he just wanted to say

he liked you

he just wanted to hear

you liked him too

he just wanted to know

what was in store

he just wanted to know

how to open the door

 

a time came, he had to go

it had been rough for a while or so

you said go on, get outta here

he said alright, goodbye

i just wanted to know

i've missed you

i just want to hear you missed me too

i'm all right

how are you?

it's been a while since i knew



See You in September

for the Fabbies
August 2002
 

been gone, gone away

i've been gone

but i don't want to stay that way

i'll call you up

now and again

just to prove

that i'm your friend

i miss you now

want you forever

stay cool

i'll see you in september

 

i went away to work

went away to dream

i went away to chill

and blow off some steam

i sit in the mountains

and dream of the fountains

i sit in the desert

and dream to fix your hurt

soon i'll be home

i hope you can remember

to stay cool

and i'll see you in september

 

been gone, gone away

i've been gone

but i don't want to stay that way

i'll call you up

now and again

just to prove

that i'm your friend

i miss you now

want you forever

stay cool

i'll see you in september

 

sitting in the cool

fresh mountain air

i think of home

and wish i were there

at home with my friends

and the ones who love me

a place where i can

comfortable be





Closer to Blue

Nov 2002

 The waves crash against the sand

I walk by and wonder what they can

The rain falls down to the ground

Don't make no sound

Water falls from inside of me, into blue

Something closer to you

 

Water falls from me to blue

Something closer to you

Water falls from me to blue

Something closer to you

 

The river flows to the sea

It runs away from me

The ocean is vast

It runs from shore to shore

Looks like even more

Water falls from inside of me, into you

Something closer to blue

 

Water falls from me to you

Something closer to blue

Water falls from me to you

Something closer to blue

 

The snow falls down cold as ice

Don't it look nice

Foggy nights make it hard to see

Can you see me

 

The river flows to the sea

It runs away from me

The river flows into blue

Its running to you




Happiness

for Liz
Nov 2003

 
Yesterday was just the day before

happiness feels so long ago

a friend forgotten

who no longer calls

a shapeless form

a face without features


But wasn't it just yesterday

looking into her eyes

that i saw this old friend

peek around the corner

and wave a short hello

but gone again

as soon as she leaves


Come and go

ebb and flow

what does it all mean

this fleeting vision of happiness

a feeling remembered only from long ago




Lost

 Nov 2003

Lost in a web of thought

deciding what I should do or not

drowning in a well of my own

falling like a ton of bricks

tunnels of sorrow

burrow into my soul

the feeling of laughter

was so long ago




Where

for Liz
January 2004

where do we go

running to and fro

where do we go

when we don't know

 

i don't know where i am

i don't know where i'm coming from

i don't know where i'm going to

please tell me if you do

 

a beauty surrounds me

sometimes it's so hard to see

i don't want to be blind to it

please help me to see

 

my head won't turn off

it's always running around

i can't stop thinking of your face

and of its grace

 

pictures of you traipse through my head

as i'm laying awake in my bed

what do you think about when you are

alone in your room

 

outside the sun is shining

in here i'm always dying

i don't want to die alone

please come be with me

 

alone again as always

your face floats by on the air

your voice keeps telling me i just

can't come there

 

and after all that's happened

after feeling turned upside down

i've made up my mind after all

I'll still be there for you



Ramblings



Late-Night Conversations

For Michelle
March 2004


I’ve waited for so long to

Find someone to talk to

Thank god that I found you and our

 

Late night conversations

Late night friends

Late night conversations

I hope this never ends

 

Not knowing where to go for love

I found someone to trust

Even though it’s hard for me to do

Turn to her, I know I must

 

I talk to you about everything

Except for my feelings for you

I think I’ve fallen in love

Now what am I to do?

 

Every time I hold you in my arms

I just don’t want to leave

Every time I see your face

It fills my heart with glee

 

Late night conversations

We’re late night friends

Late night conversations

I hope these feelings never end

 

Through common friends we met each other

Now our friendship is unique

I can’t explain how much I need you

I only hope that you need me


I fall asleep lying next to you

As the sun is rising

When I awake I thank god that  you’re still here

This is so surprising

 

Oh what am I supposed to do

The days remaining are so few

I see the future calling to me

But all I want is to be with you

 

Late night conversations

We’re late night friends

Late night conversation

I hope this never ends


Twice

For them
March 2004

“This makes twice though

Twice that you made me cry”

Twice that my heart

Has fallen from high

Twice that I thought I had something

Twice that I found I had nothing

Two times I stepped out on the limb

Two times it snapped and down with it I went

Two times I stepped up to the plate

Two times I swung just a little too late

Two times I thought I found where I was

“I've been lost from the beginning

So still being lost really isn’t a change”

How many times does this have to happen

How many times must I pick myself up

How many times can I take the refusal

How many times can I keep waking up

To a world that is harsh

And just isn’t willing

To give me a chance

And isn’t fulfilling

Only one out left

And I’m still the batter

Two strike outs before

Hope one’s not the latter

For if the inning ends

With a K for the pitcher

I may just retire

But nobody likes a quiter
