Remembrance
Today I pass another mile stone;
another breath taken, another year gone.
I have passed so fast the gentle times
of dreams, romance and festive chimes.
The mind is fixed at my childhood days;
a chubby, teeny fool, who
did not even know how to flirt or play.
My heart still beats like a pulsing star.
My soul still rocks to an electric guitar.
My body shakes, deforming scars, flaccid skin;
cruel reality of death stirring in.
No one knows or can see, the pain of memories,
which have burnt and now, will bury me.
I have...

You Don't Know Me
How can you say you know me when all you see if what I choose to show
The person you see isn't real, I’m merely a figment of your imagination if you will
Who I really am is behind locked doors, under covers, hidden beneath pillows.
I say I trust you but someone controlled by rules can become a great liar.
I wish to trust you with who I am, to show you what's underneath my skin
But I tell you something, and then you go and tell him.
So can you really be angry with me when I close my door and cover my windows?
I only locked you out because you carried a...

Breezes
Mighty they come
in through the dawn
headfast and strong
clouding thought
breaching fright
it'll be a long long night
come for me
comfort me
come and whisk
these worries away
blow sweet breeze blow
blow sweet breeze blow
may your winds blow and carry
a resemblance of resilience
a resistance to this incessant insistence
blow sweet breeze blow
deep into this ever beating heart
holding on forever strong.
let these pains fall off to the side
let your spirit...
in through the dawn
headfast and strong
clouding thought
breaching fright
it'll be a long long night

comfort me

blow sweet breeze blow

may your winds blow and carry
a resemblance of resilience
a resistance to this incessant insistence
blow sweet breeze blow
deep into this ever beating heart
holding on forever strong.
let these pains fall off to the side
let your spirit...

Protected Paradise
Sadness bleeds through these words
crumbling down onto me
I'm a mountain holding on
rock solid
as the world throws down
an avalanche of anger
I'm no stranger to the sun
burning hot these trying eyes
breathe, I hear the whispers
for life is too short
to reign or rain
on someone else
and their protected paradise
crumbling down onto me
I'm a mountain holding on
rock solid
as the world throws down
an avalanche of anger
I'm no stranger to the sun
burning hot these trying eyes
breathe, I hear the whispers
for life is too short
to reign or rain
on someone else
and their protected paradise

But I'm just treading water

Another day
In you I found
My voice
My sunshine
My morning dew
In you I
Found my
Demons
My darkness
In the still of
The night
I hear your
Voice echo
In my mind
I am lost
I am dead
I am forgotten
Then you speak
I gasp for air
To live
Another day
My voice
My sunshine
My morning dew
In you I
Found my
Demons
My darkness
In the still of
The night
I hear your
Voice echo
In my mind
I am lost
I am dead
I am forgotten
Then you speak
I gasp for air
To live
Another day

You
You helped me to
Feel the light
In my darkness
You made me feel
You left
I only have memories
It's all I have
To hold on to now
Feel the light
In my darkness
You made me feel
You left
I only have memories
It's all I have
To hold on to now

Blue without You
drowned in my dreams
mere memories on screen
smiles on faces
struggling to be remembered
you stand out in my thoughts
deep brown eyes
soulfully looking into my heart
stirring wishes unfulfilled
I am blue without you
who once painted vivid colours
in the hallway of my heart
I wish the path
had not meandered away.
