Gone
The truth of my ignominy
Stares at me with sad eyes
From across the breakfast table
I know that I could never do enough good
To erase the look of shame
In those eyes
And as she rises and walks out of the room
I know in the depths of my heart
That she won't ever be home again
So I stand and clear the coffee cups
And stand at the sink
Staring at the emptiness that stretches out
To forever
Stares at me with sad eyes
From across the breakfast table
I know that I could never do enough good
To erase the look of shame
In those eyes
And as she rises and walks out of the room
I know in the depths of my heart
That she won't ever be home again
So I stand and clear the coffee cups
And stand at the sink
Staring at the emptiness that stretches out
To forever

In the Haze
Maybe I should have held on
For a little longer but you are
The one to let go. You are gone
Into the abyss where the star
Died that night. I regret not
Loving you until our last days,
Knowing that it is you I forgot
Out in the haze.
For a little longer but you are
The one to let go. You are gone
Into the abyss where the star
Died that night. I regret not
Loving you until our last days,
Knowing that it is you I forgot
Out in the haze.

In a Stargaze
In a Stargaze”
From the avenues of memory
You have come back to me…
With the things that never were,
And, just for a while, I was waiting for
You to stay a moment in a stargaze.
Look at you now, your eyes are all ablaze
With the yesterdays we never spent together,
Though I’ll dream that they were there forever.
Please stay home…don’t go out there.
You know what it means when you say that you care.
So just stay home. I’ll bring flowers to you
Like I always had wanted to.
Its such a sunny day to keep me where...
From the avenues of memory
You have come back to me…
With the things that never were,
And, just for a while, I was waiting for
You to stay a moment in a stargaze.
Look at you now, your eyes are all ablaze
With the yesterdays we never spent together,
Though I’ll dream that they were there forever.
Please stay home…don’t go out there.
You know what it means when you say that you care.
So just stay home. I’ll bring flowers to you
Like I always had wanted to.
Its such a sunny day to keep me where...

You
You”
You…you always were one of the brave.
How…how does it feel to walk on my grave?
Such a narrow passage there that you tread
With the light streaming just up ahead…
How can I hide from my own disguise,
When you cannot see it in my eyes?
How I hunted you when I was lonely
Is written in my face, and the only
Shadow that walks behind us
Is the ghost of what life was.
And as scared I was back then
I think I would live that life again.
You did not know the way I hurt you,
But you forgave me for what I can’t...
You…you always were one of the brave.
How…how does it feel to walk on my grave?
Such a narrow passage there that you tread
With the light streaming just up ahead…
How can I hide from my own disguise,
When you cannot see it in my eyes?
How I hunted you when I was lonely
Is written in my face, and the only
Shadow that walks behind us
Is the ghost of what life was.
And as scared I was back then
I think I would live that life again.
You did not know the way I hurt you,
But you forgave me for what I can’t...

Orion Skies
Looking in, looking out
Tell me, what love's about
Counting all the stars, missing one
where is it, where's it gone
And you know I miss you
It's all I do, think of you
Remembering your touch, gentle wind
coming and going, looking in
Looking out, towards the sky
This night whispers goodbye
Someone to hold me,
once maybe more
Someone to tell me
it's my world
Your breath against my skin, let me in
Your rising breast, against my chest
It's only a dream, my heart tells lies
I lay alone, under...
Tell me, what love's about
Counting all the stars, missing one
where is it, where's it gone
And you know I miss you
It's all I do, think of you
Remembering your touch, gentle wind
coming and going, looking in
Looking out, towards the sky
This night whispers goodbye
Someone to hold me,
once maybe more
Someone to tell me
it's my world
Your breath against my skin, let me in
Your rising breast, against my chest
It's only a dream, my heart tells lies
I lay alone, under...

favorite color of the day
For a while it was
Canary yellow and glorious hues.
But then heavy clouds
Deep purple and blues.
For it takes only
A snap of fingers, a crosswind
A cross word
To go from joy and happiness
To a sea of storms
And nasty brews.
Canary yellow and glorious hues.
But then heavy clouds
Deep purple and blues.
For it takes only
A snap of fingers, a crosswind

Under The Mercury Moon
a token shared;
I read into
the sentiment
...was it from you?
or had I given this freely
only to be returned?
an Irish blessing
upon a medallion
the message is clear but
I can’t exactly remember
some too many years ago
even a decade longer
since I knew your love
and we were stronger
you’ve returned to me
an art collection
I gathered back then
still, no recollection
did you place it here
intentionally?
or is the message rejection ...

soup
there were too many-
roadblocks.
there were so many-
heartaches.
there was a rip of fabric; a gong-sound
to start and to empty me;
so many stars and blurry with tears,
round-n-round and must one go on?
were did it all correspond?
sometimes there is a dark wall so
vast
it exists forever.
and ever and
god hates randomly.
soups on says mom;
what happened to random pasts,
lost nights and humbling with thought?
perspicacious is i as night breaks the bow
of me;
of regret and hate...
roadblocks.

Memories
Memories are demons hiding in the closet,
Under the bed, in the attic,
Waiting in ambush with a lifetime store
Of sorrow, anger, regret, & forgotten longing.
They prey on our moments of loneliness
With a tenacity that borders on obsession;
The very shadows come to life with ghosts
We thought we'd long ago fought & banished.
What profit is there in recalling the past
With anything beyond a passing notion?
Good memories only remind us what we've lost,
Bad ones only make us fear the fragility of life.
Perhaps...
Under the bed, in the attic,
Waiting in ambush with a lifetime store

With a tenacity that borders on obsession;

What profit is there in recalling the past
With anything beyond a passing notion?
Good memories only remind us what we've lost,
Bad ones only make us fear the fragility of life.

Sadly (@@)
There was this girl from Sudbury
Who wanted to get away in a hurry
Packed up a bunch of clothes
Too many she chose
Also snapped an item furry
Thus the cat died, suffocated, sadly.

(...)
(…)
I pray you forgive me for being sincere,
Nothing more than dreams bear me here.
I am a lonesome love-song, crying to be free
Or an illusion of tears that will be.
No remorse I bear thee to relate,
For it was I who crafted so false a fate.
Always and forever shall I adore
The one within my heart so sore.
And when I think of thee while I lay
I fear I shall see thee no more today.
O! My death into the solitary shore
Where tears fade forevermore
Into a sea as blue and as deep
As the heart that now doth...

This Heart
Hey there baby, what you up to?
Wanna hear me sing a song off the top of my head?
Hey there baby, I'm here for you.
Wanna hear me sing a song before you're off to bed?
Come a little closer, let me hold your hand.
Yeah, come a little closer, I'll help you understand.
This heart would do anything just to get itself some hands.
And this heart would do anything just to get onto your land.
So I hope you understand that this heart.
This heart.
Baby, it belongs to this man.
Hey there, baby, can you hear me?
Do you really...
Wanna hear me sing a song off the top of my head?
Hey there baby, I'm here for you.
Wanna hear me sing a song before you're off to bed?
Come a little closer, let me hold your hand.
Yeah, come a little closer, I'll help you understand.
This heart would do anything just to get itself some hands.
And this heart would do anything just to get onto your land.
So I hope you understand that this heart.
This heart.
Baby, it belongs to this man.
Hey there, baby, can you hear me?
Do you really...
