Without You

Late at night

when all is still.

My head spins at the thought of you.

I try not to choke on the past.

But at last,

Without you

I could fly in the sky.

Without you

this weight in my heart dissipates.

Without you

Im growing up.

Without you

Peace rains on the sidewalk

where you once kissed me.

Without you

Im taking on step at a time.

Without you

my heart sings a different song.

Without you

I am stronger.

Without you

I am no longer afraid.

Without you 

I can be who I am.

Without you

I am free.

By the Fire

Trapped.

No where to go.

No escape from the icy cold.

The wind howls and growls,

I am here in the warmth of your arms.

Keeping me safe by the fire.

Till we retire;

Under cozy blankets.

So let the storm rage! 

Let the clouds cage the sun.

For I am here safe and warm

Away from harm.

With a sweet drink of your lips

And your hands around my hips.

We can lay 

Till the next day.

A Day In The Life Of A Leaf

Once upon a time in a far off place

I’m on a tree and I see its loving face.

She sings to me and waves her branches.

As she waves she shines me through the suns rays

Oh her elegant ways

I can see the lake and mountains.

I can hear the far off fountains.

All day I sway back and forth;

Till the sunsets north.

On a blissful morning a awake to see the sun rise

Oh to my surprise as I opened my eyes.

To see I lay on the face of grass

I scream and I wale

But a storm is about to hale.

Violent the earth shook

I took one last look,

To my tree who

Laid a tear on me.

I blew across the ground

Making a swishing sound.

The wind picked me up

As the sun came out

I was flying across the sky,

But I screamed and I cried.

For me to be on my tree

Then her branches grew

And so did her leaves too.

They pulled and yanked,

As her branches sank.

I held on for dear life

But the wind kept blowing harder

And harder.

Fear or not to fear

Fear

Like a thief in the night 

It comes and takes a bite 

Of your heart and soul

Making you feel old 

Tierd and weary 

It grasps tightly 

Never to let go

It's a comfy couch

That makes it hard to leave 

Letting fear take control

Or do you pull

And yank you self off the floor

Stand up and fight

Till it's defeated on this night

Take control 

Never loose your self in fear

Oh how my dear 

Becareful of what you hold on to. 

A friend

Have you heard 

The greatest story ever

Told?

Are you curious to know

How far it will go?

How long it will take?

Will it make your heart break?

To you this must be true

This story must be new

A man and his people 

Saving and giving little by little

Sharing the word day by day

A man with a smile and wink

No it's not Saint Nick you must be hoodwinked.

He gives love and heals those judging hearts

He feeds those in need

He does good deeds

To know him

And his love

Share his passion for the one above 

Watching over like a dove

Not that I've sucked you in 

Let's begin

How this tale 

Will soon taste like old ale.

The man punished for doing good 

Do you think anyone should?

Be whipped and scratched 

Kicked and batched 

Thirtynine times

Just save our lives yours and mine

On the road to calvery and through the city

He carried that splintered plank 

Oh how slivers sank

Down his back all mangled and gashed

Blood started to dripp from being lashed

Little by little 

Step by step 

He reached the hill 

Where he will be killed 

On a cross to bear our lost 

In this painful cost

For you and me

He lays on top of the wood 

As the guards pushed and shoved

He felt a 9inch spike in his feet

In is hand the nail 

Impailed his skin and bone

Oh how he screamed and groaned

They lifted the cross with a creak

The wind started to shriek 

Blood and water hit the ground

Walls we couldn't move came crashing down 

As he hang and said it is finshed 

Buried he lay

Tears fell where he will stay

One day

Two days

Three days had past

The end was near for our man

But then the ground shook and shakes

His body became awake 

The Day Plays Away

In the morning I hear love songs

Song by angels from above

I hear songs of the sun and dancing

Or songs about morning coffee.

The hours fly by

Until noon is high in the sky.

When the beat lyrics come alive.

Singing about journies 

Road trips with friends;

Screaming at the top of our lungs 

When the day is done.

Rocking out like nobody is watching

Making our hearts smile a mile.

Then dawn begins to break

The songs become slower,

Lyrics become deep,

And engraved in the stars above.

Lullabys rock the night away

Of comfort;

Recalling your mistakes

Or unforgettable heartbreaks.

Weary and dreary,

Escaping to the wonders of dreams 

Where the music is up to you to make.

Mercy

My heart aches

My heart breaks

From the pain that blows in the wind

So I sing upon my sin

I cry in this empty space

that has carried my disgrace.

Black and white

I am held tight 

by the chains that bound me 

to this rock I am to be

nothing but dust

that will rust.

Show me the light

turn it bright!

As the sun above

 I can see your love.

Send your mercy!

 It may pierce me

That I can be. . . 

filled with compassion and your grace

So I can stop running this race.

Your mercy

rescued me

in the middle of the ocean,

in the driest of deserts,

In the frozen places of my heart.

Your mercy found me

and bond to me.

Seal my heart!

Break my chains!

To be free of this misery!

Bring me home to your heart,

and never let me depart

ever again.
