Someday
Someday I'll find you,
In that darkness where you hide,
The light will appear,
and you will be there,
exactly where I felt you,
reached out to you,
beneath the darkness
of a broken past
Always and forever
I miss you....
In that darkness where you hide,
The light will appear,
and you will be there,
exactly where I felt you,
reached out to you,
beneath the darkness
of a broken past
Always and forever
I miss you....

Old Church Whispers
Did you hear the faded chimes, for the brides of distant years,
did you see the creaking beams of oak and the spider’s souvenirs.
Threads of ancient wonder, woven through with age,
each filigree of history, a part of gods own stage.
And the children crying softly and the haunted souls who wept,
could you hear the past of ages and the secrets they have kept.
Did you feel the weight of memories, of lives all loved and lost,
Did you feel those decades fall away, as the years of time were crossed.
Could you sense the sweet vibration of a choir...
did you see the creaking beams of oak and the spider’s souvenirs.
Threads of ancient wonder, woven through with age,
each filigree of history, a part of gods own stage.
And the children crying softly and the haunted souls who wept,
could you hear the past of ages and the secrets they have kept.
Did you feel the weight of memories, of lives all loved and lost,
Did you feel those decades fall away, as the years of time were crossed.
Could you sense the sweet vibration of a choir...

Beautifully Broken...
Look at me…
I am beautifully broken,
I haemorrhaged emotion, to the point of despair,
And when passion unbalanced the gravity of my existence,
It changed me, fractured my identity,
Stole a shard of my heart from me.
And now, I am beautifully broken
A sliver of hope wrenched free…
I am beautifully broken,
I haemorrhaged emotion, to the point of despair,
And when passion unbalanced the gravity of my existence,
It changed me, fractured my identity,
Stole a shard of my heart from me.
And now, I am beautifully broken
A sliver of hope wrenched free…

Take a Breath...
Alone in this silence, no whispers, no words
No worries, no lies, a threat in disguise?
Closing my eyes, and I breathe, oh I breathe,
In a bid to relieve… to relive, to perceive
Is this why I grieve?
Heart pumping and thumping, nerves jangled and jumping
Senses vibrating, hopes elevating,
Destroyed or enchanted, emotions decanted
Inhale….

Taken
I lost myself in a place I was expected to share,
I was there with them all,
but in pieces, taken and used,
maybe even abused to a point.
I was turned over and turned out,
pushed and pushed around
and what was it anyone expected to find
or had even found
there was nothing that would truly astound.
Still they looked at me,
examined the already tried and tested,
like a project in which they felt they had fully invested
and now completely detested
for its strength alone.
It would seem they would go to any length to break it,...

Remnants of you...
Fragments of your essence filter through in my mind,
Resurrected from the ruins of a love and pain combined,
I am tortured by the weakness and lack of self-control,
When I tap into that remnant of your tender aching soul...
That fragile damaged piece, in the ashes of my heart,
A delicate reminder of how we fell apart,
To touch upon such tenderness, so lost in time and tide,
Amplified the memories I battled hard to hide…
A broken thread of sentiment once bound around my own,
Released a breath of liberty where seeds of us was sown, ...

I know...
I am falling
Through the floor of my acceptance
To the basement of my despair
And I will settle there
In that belly of destruction
Submerged beneath the swell of tears and loss
And as I wallow in my debris of frustration
Waiting for your hateful observation
You can whisper it again
I told you so….
Through the floor of my acceptance
To the basement of my despair
And I will settle there
In that belly of destruction
Submerged beneath the swell of tears and loss
And as I wallow in my debris of frustration
Waiting for your hateful observation
You can whisper it again
I told you so….

He....
He came to her, in her mind and in her heart.
He settled in her breath, stood behind her words,
held her hand when she worried
and softly kissed away her unhappiness.
He rounded up her courage
and placed it in a perspective she always found easier to see,
he took her fears and fought them for her,
he held her heart when she felt it too heavy to bear
and wrapped his arms around her shoulders
telling her it would all be ok.
He found her confidence and handed it back to her,
he stole her heart and dried her tears,
he truly mattered....

My World
I was here once before, a long time ago, or maybe it wasn't me that was here at all, just a shadow of who I am. I just seem to remember this place, but then I think, in my sadness at the time, I could have been mistaken it could have been another darkened corner my existence found, another place to hide.
I just remember this time in life which was black and unreservedly profound and I was nowhere. Yet I was somewhere, maybe not here or even there, maybe just suspended and pretending to share in other people’s conversation. I’d run away of course, in hope to lose the sad persona of...

Standing tall...
Stand in strength, though I am weary,
but in doubt I will not fall,
and if you take me, do it quickly,
for still, I will stand tall.
Strip my flesh and crush my bones,
see me bleed and hear me weep,
but not once, will my head bow,
despite all this, I will stand tall.
Take my heart and lay it bare,
wreck my life if you so care,
but my heart will never vary,
as its strength will keep me tall.
Tear my soul, shred it to pieces,
strip my heart, cleave it in two,
my depth of spirit will outwit you,
and I will stand,...
but in doubt I will not fall,
and if you take me, do it quickly,

We wrote of...
Time and tide and strength and pride, the pain and tears of months and years.
Of angels wings and birds that sing, of simple things like our heartstrings.
We penned our hopes and constant fears; we sealed our fate on all frontiers.
In depth of soul where darkness stole, were destinies beyond control.
My incubus, your succubus, in demons lair we found us there.
In deepest love and great romance, the twisted hand of fate and chance.
We scaled the heights to heaven's door and rode the waves to distant shore.

Lovers Lost...
Gaze on the armour of sweetened seduction
Concealed in its shadow your own self-destruction
Contempt and hostility sit in its shade
Labyrinths of lies help to guard the charade
A faker of dreams shows you pathways of hell
Disguised captivation whilst under its spell
Sensual promises lure you within
Compelling you on toward ultimate sin
Constructed illusions bait you to its lair
Great anticipation enticing you there
Through streets of desire your journey began
A journey of love made woman and man
With...
