I Fear No More
I fear no more
For things unknown
I travel by faith
I'm not alone
My father is with me,
By my side
I walk in the light
No reason to hide
He restoreth my soul
Cleansing within,
Easing my pain
Easing my sin
I sat and waited by heaven's door,
And soon he came,
I fear no more...

Madness
Hello Madness.
Do you ever wonder why the world goes round, or why the clouds weep acid tears?
Why rivers are always going, but never arriving?
Why a bird soars, why the trees sway?--
Or do you marvel at how the wind carries all our secrets, and how our secrets always carry more wind than truth?
Do you ever ask yourself who are you?
What is madness?

This Island
I wish I could be your galaxy, your stars, your beautiful dream.
I want to be behind your ribcage, in your heart, your secret world.
I find myself singing the same song over and over again, on top of this deserted island of the lonely.
I sing out to the cold, everyday, just waiting for you to say...
So I'll take a breath and try again.

To Live And Learn
The petal cannot fall far from the rose, but inevitably it shall fall, wilt, and be forgotten--unless one so inclined did catch that descending fragment of the whole and press it so firmly, binding it's brilliance, and eternalizing its very existence.

This Is Real
I took a walk down a lonely alley, and through the chill of the darkness I thought I saw a glimmer, the radiance of your eyes--and by the light of those eyes I have been led to the warth of innocence.
I cried out at the thick velvet clouding my mind, and I thought I heard a whisper as down my throat poured the tears--the whisper which caught me as I fell helplessly, blindly into you.
I stared into beauty and saw you there, the magic of your eyes, the gentleness of your whispered emotions, the way the thought of you cradles my heart.
I looked past the mirrors and broken glass and felt your music touching my soul, the warm melody that our spirits dance to in my dreams, so real to me.

Two Lost Souls
Two lost souls, so unsure and no peace of mind
Hearts that ache for answers to find
Afraid to open the bruised heart door
Loney, confused and so insecure
Wanting to share the emotions inside
Even the fright and pain they hide
Then one heart cracks the hearts door of light
The other drawn by hope, forgets the fright
Ones emotions slowly released by a gentle touch
The other sees what the heart desires so much
A word is spoken, yet without sound
Again by touch the meaning is found
Slowly pain and fright is put aside
As emotions flow like the oceans tide
The two souls scared by heartaches of past
Now cling to the moment within their grasp
More the heart opens and the darkness is taken by light
Each embrace the other softly yet ever so tight
Both knowing what is taking place
Two hearts at the peak and face to face
It's not sex that each desire to feel
Two souls wanting to climax to something real
Now answers for each lost soul is revealed
With true emotions, lonely hearts can heal
Sex is a cheap mockery of second best
Only love can give heartaches a place to rest

Across The Many Miles...
As my head hits my pillow
A tear run down my cheek
Knowing this love in my heart
Always I will keep
Knowing even though so far away
I'll love you till my dying day
A love so deep it burns my soul
Leaving this pain inside
I wish you knew love
How I feel
And how these feelings make my mind
I'll hope for you only happiness
In your heart you'll keep
And I'll hope love always stays with you
And not make you weep
I'll hope when the sun does shine upon your face
That you'll give a little smile
Knowing how I love you dear
Across the many miles

Untitled
My life comes crashing down
Only when I'm alone
And I get to thinking
And I get to crying
And being permistic sara
My lifes so changed
I though it was so incredibly normal
And it is
On the outside
And I am
On the outside
But on the inside I feel like I am screaming
Screaming for a response
For a change
For the better
For a better version of me
