Death Blow
Dear… come to me
Unveil the truth, your mystery
And here… we’ll lie unclothed
No cares in the world
Dear… come to me
Unveil the truth, your mystery
And here… we’ll lie unclothed
No cares in the world
No youth to hold
She turns to embrace me
And then suddenly
My body grows colder
By the warmth that I see
I try to fight past this
So she’ll never know
The love that she gives
Her kiss…
Will deal…
The death blow
Just…
How to express these feelings I feel
is a laden task no pen shall reveal
of all throughout history, no poet or prose
could grasp the true meaning, of how deep this love goes
How to express these feelings I feel
is a laden task no pen shall reveal
of all throughout history, no poet or prose
could grasp the true meaning, of how deep this love goes
Our souls intertwined in a destiny so strong
That no army could scathe, or no evil could wrong
Every waking moment, is a priceless moment spent
from an all enchanting kiss, to a kiss of all enchantment
For it pains me to love with a heart made of stone
but slowly it softens with the touch of your own
and if so it beats with a will strong as mine
the key to unlock what’s behind you shall find
Should
So the walls that I build were not meant to climb
but stood with intentions to leave them behind
those that deceive, those that betray
those that are blind to the path of fate’s way
So the walls that I build were not meant to climb
but stood with intentions to leave them behind
those that deceive, those that betray
those that are blind to the path of fate’s way
So I may be driven with endless ambitions
but what you are given should foster your visions
never to quit, never to fold
never believing the can’ts you are told
So this life that I lead may never please all
and the roads that I choose may cause me to fall
they may twist, they may wind, they might even blind
but what counts is ahead and not what’s behind
The Journey
And so your life begins
through trials, through tribulations
and unknown anticipations
the road must start from within
And so your life begins
through trials, through tribulations
and unknown anticipations
the road must start from within
But life will not be straight
its path will wind, its path will veer
sometimes without the wheel to steer
so this rely on fate
There will be those unkind
their words and deeds are broken wings
stricken with earthbound jealousies
ignore them all and fly
Proposal
I’ve seen the sunset fall
Beneath the ocean’s tide
And rise behind the desert sky
Of mountains far and wide
I’ve seen the sunset fall
Beneath the ocean’s tide
And rise behind the desert sky
Of mountains far and wide
I’ve felt the softest rain
Fall from the fields of France
Cascading down like crystal dreams
Upon the leaves they’d dance
Of all these thoughts and memories
Of beauty, love, and grace
I never dreamt I’d see much more
And then I saw your face
So here I kneel before your eyes
To win your heart for life
Upon your words my heart is yours
If you will be my wife
Home
Where have I come to
this past into now
what once brought a smile
has now left a frown
Where have I come to
this past into now
what once brought a smile
has now left a frown
I walk on a road
that aimlessly twists
endlessly searching
for fate’s path I missed
Hope starts to fade
my stride turns to crawl
torn shattered dreams
how far will I fall
A far-distant voice
raises this weary head
my eyes focus in
on this faint form ahead
The figure draws near
its sight still unknown
and before I can speak
this vision is shown
She stands there before me
with hope in her eyes
then lifts me unto her
untangling my pride
“Where have you been?”
her tender voice cries
our road’s over there
and yet here you lie
Come, let’s go home
my love gone astray
too long you’ve been gone
I’ll help lead the way
Back onto fate’s ground
we walk hand in hand
my fears chased away
my smile back again
Insomnia
To sleep perchance to dream
to dream is all I pray
before the nightfall fades
before the break of day
To sleep perchance to dream
to dream is all I pray
before the nightfall fades
before the break of day
Another listless stir
another hour gone
no longer wait to rest
instead I wait for dawn
Father time’s forgotten
for time to pass this slow
now tomorrow beckons
now my eyes will close
A Dream of Life
Stand up and rise above…
the hate that we breed
the fear that we feed
the lives that we lead
Stand up and rise above…
the hate that we breed
the fear that we feed
the lives that we lead
for there is a need
To find the lost word “love”
Our reality is blind…
to where courage goes
to what kindness shows
to cruelty we pose
these daily dealt blows
Tear our hearts from our minds
Recall what our world’s seen
and what it’s been through
so what can we do?
One question rings true
Can life become the dream?
Ballad
As close as we are today
Let’s pray we’ll be tomorrow
but our memories are here to stay
and serve to cast away all sorrows
As close as we are today
Let’s pray we’ll be tomorrow
but our memories are here to stay
and serve to cast away all sorrows
Looking forth to future years
as scary as it seems
our present thoughts of hopes and fears
will turn to hopes and dreams
So rise and face what’s yet to come
embrace it with open arms
for no one can amount the sum
of a love as great as ours
Strange Directions
Come inside…
Feel this burn
Love can turn
In such strange directions
