Goodbye

Would you look me in the eye?
And tell me it was all a lie
Would you hold my hand so tightly?
While wishing me goodbye
Would you catch these tears a-falling?
While you’re still calling me darling

No
No
No
The answer to each question

‘Cause you walk the other way
Opposite from where I stay

And I know
I must bid you goodbye
I must bid you goodbye

Anything at all...

You see
But you don’t really see
You hear
But you don’t really hear
You touch
But the feeling’s not enough
You feel
But you can’t seem to feel
Anything at all
Anything at all…

Drops of Sunrise

Drops of sunrise trickle down your face
Warms me as I drown in your embrace

Drops of sunrise caress your skin
I can’t help but notice your grin

Drops of sunrise I long to see
In a world of darkness surrounding me

Drops of sunrise, drops of sunrise
Come down from heaven and sit with me

Some Nights

One night…
Sipping hot black tea on a breezy summer night
Head is spinning from too much wine delight
Tennis is on tv just to fill the empty space
The fan is moving from side to side to keep pace
The heat is filling this four-walled room
Where I lie to try to sleep quietly

The next night…
Haven’t written anything much lately
Soft guitar music is playing on TV
Cold Darjeeling by my side
Tickling my tastebud
And the night still feels young
Strange… I should really go to sleep.

Goodnight.

My Love's Away

fictional
My love, away you’ve gone
The angels have guided you
To a place I can’t visit
Yet…

My love, what is it like
Living in that unfamiliar world
A place I’ve not accepted as home
Yet…

My love, do you still remember
Me? Even though you’re there
And I’m here… thinking of you
Always…

My love, take care, would you?
I’ll write to you, in my sleep each night
I hope you won’t mind
Till we meet again, someday
Signed, me.

Hopeful

The clouds
Gray and heavy
Upon those hills
Like blankets
Shadows over greens
There's Hope in tomorrow
A new year, a new day
Leave what’s done to yesterday
Hold on to dreams and run

Feel the wind

Feel the wind
Running beside your ears
Leaves rustling under your feet
Cold sweats trickle down like tears
And you keep going

Feel the wind
Whispering symphonies you never heard before
Soothing your soul right to the core
Your heart may skip a beat ‘cause you’re unsure
But you keep going

Feel the wind
So carefree, so controlled, yet so questioning
Your every move, your every thoughts
So you wander, might even sail for a bit or just drive on
And keep trying to go up, up and away

Happy New Year

So the world spins without waiting for you

In a world full of people searching for something to sue

One must let go of the past

Seasons change, some things aren’t meant to last

Look forward, a brighter day, wishful tomorrow

While I breathe I shall hope and cast aside my sorrow

Happy new year
