I couldn't begin to put this woman's greatness into words. She's awesome! She has inspired me more than anyone in my poetry. She is one of the greatest song writers ever to grace the music industry. She is very talented in a lot of different ways. Her voice captivates the soul like no other. In my eyes, at least!
I've dedicated this part of my site to her and her music. You'll find a few pictures here and there, and a few good snippets of song lyrics. Look around if you'd like...you'll be glad you did.
If her work doesn't inspire you, then I don't know what else possibly could! *smiles*

Rising to the Surface
..I'm so afraid to love you, more afraid to lose, clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose..
..oh, so just let me try and I will be good to you, just let me try and I will be there for you...
..and I don't understand how the touch of your hand..I would be the one to fall..I miss the little things..I miss everything about you..
..don't you know I tried so hard to love you in my way..it's easy, let it go..
..and fate has lead you through it, you do what you have to do..and I have the sense to recognize that I don't know how to let you go..
And I would be the one to hold you down, kiss you so hard I'd take your breathe away, and after I wipe away the tears, just close your eyes, Dear..

I love the time and inbetween the calm inside me, in this space where I can breathe, I believe there is a distance I have wondered to touch upon the years of..
Reaching out, and reaching in..
Holding out, holding in, I believe this heaven to no one else but me, and I'll defend it long as I can be left here to linger in silence if I choose to, would you try to understand?
I know this love is passing time, passing through like liquid and I'm drunk in my desire..
But I love the way you smile at me, I love the way your hands reach out and hold me near. I believe, I believe..This is heaven to no one else but me and I'll defend it as long as I can left here to linger in silence if I choose to, would you try to understand?
Oh, the quiet child awaits the day when she can break free from all that clings like desperation. Mother, can't you see I've got to live my life the way I feel is right for me, might not be right for you but it's right for me...I believe this is heaven to no one else but me, and I'll defend it long as I can be left here to linger in silence if I choose to, would you try to understand?
I would like to linger here in silence if I choose to..you would understand it..would you try..
