Moment We Met
12/21/02

No candlelit dinners
No fancy cars to ride
Just you and me
And those moonlit nights
No jewelry
No silverware
Just you and me
And our dollar dreams to share
No heart shaped candy
No love letters to give away
Just you and me
And lots of things to say
Your pictures my words
Your pain my hurt
Your eyes my star
Your strength my power
Your tenderness my care
Your thoughts my prayer
Your breath my air
Your loss my tear
Your shoulder my head
Well
What I really mean to say is
Just you and me
And
Hallelujah to the moment we met


This is my little gift to
All my young friends in love

Common Pain
12/25/02

I learned what heartache was
Everytime I was with you
You never cared for me
Yet I never outgrew you
Always knew your love was
But a sweet lie
Still it hurt
When you said goodbye
Sure I understood
You don't love me
It's someone else your eyes seek  
And yet
If nothing else
We share a common pain
Of loving
Loving someone but in vain

I'll Stand By You
01/02/03

When you are feeling down
When all your friends are gone
In my arms you'll find home
When nothing seems right
When you wanna give up the fight
In my arms you'll find the reason to be
When your heart is drifting
When your world is shifting
In my arms you'll find peace
When the walls are closing in on you
To a way out you don't have a clue
In my arms you'll find your destiny
When the world is chasing you
When you wanna run away
In my arms you'll find a place to hide
When you fear never getting up again
When all the efforts are in vain
In my arms you'll find recovery
When life has gone by
When its time to say goodbye
In my arms you'll find immortality
Cause no one loves you the way I do
Turn to me
I'll always stand by you

Complicated Heart
01/11/03
 

I just carry on
I don't hold on
As if I never really hurt
I manage to look ahead
Even as I ward off
Demons from the past
I wish
I weren't so smart
To understand
Life is bigger
Bigger than you and me
I wish
I weren't so loved
To feel
Life is about
People who stood by me
Not who let me down
I wish
I weren't so rational
To realize
Life has times
One has to let go
Move along
I wish
I weren't so humane
To err
To regret
To rage
Yes
There are debts in life
One has to pay
There are nightmares
To keep one awake
If only I could turn back times
When I said too much
And when I didn't say enough
laughter ripples through
Smiles abound
No one complains
Oh but how I pray
Skies turn gray
Coz when pain becomes unbearable
And tears run free
I would blame it on the rain
Ah
So much for a complicated heart

Journey
02/23/03

When I started out on the road
It was years ago
I was so tentative and unsure
But I had a heart full of dreams
And a life ahead full of hopes
Every bend looked inviting
Every turn exciting
Journey wasn't at all tiring
Then years on road took their toll
As they do on one and all
Heart felt empty
Life begin to tighten
Like a noose around the neck
The long walk making my joints ache
Every bend looked futile exercise
Every turn dead end
And I never realized
Before the journey I had met my end

Times
03/01/03

Times are strange
Times change
Times are never same
Sometimes are right
Sometimes are wrong
Sometimes make you weak
Sometimes you are strong
Happy sad
Good bad
Lost and found
They turn around
Trapped and free
Down in dumps
Touch the sky
Soft as snow
Hard as stone
Straighten your back
Turn the tide
Shrug and walk away
Time to get the move on
Fire in your eyes
Will make the sunshine
Talk to your body
Talk to your soul
Get up
Find your way home

Joy
09/05/03

Joy has such frivolous nature
Even as it grows it fades away
As it curls the lips
Tears are held at bay

Its sweet delight
Somehow leaves
A sour aftertaste
Although its precious
Yet at the end of the day
All seems such a waste

A clever marksman
It shoots straight at the heart
By the time we comprehend
Its already too late

Its hangover
Is much worse
For joy to arrive
It makes us wait

To every night there is day
Just like clouds our hurt will drift away
And we open our arms
To embrace it
But by then
Its already time for it to part ways

Joy has such frivolous nature
And
Regret as we might
We bite the bait

To The One I Love
09/21/03
Sometimes its harder to hold on
Then letting go
Heart believes
Though the mind knows
We survived the loneliness
We survived the throngs
We put a few things right
We learned to live with a few wrongs
When you walked away
I still stayed
When I wanted it to end
You held on
My faith never wavered
I never had a doubt
For a while I thought
Battle had been won
Its only when our hearts found their way
I realized
Battle had only just begun
Friends are but few
Temptations anew
To a place life has led
Maybe tomorrow it will come true
This dream we had
Lovers are gods only sin
Even as they lose
They win
And yet
Love is easy when its faked
True love has to pay its dues
But I know its worth it
When I am with you

Someday
11/25/03

How did you ever think
I'd be happy when we fought
For I can't win if you lose
At least you still can choose
I got no choice
Loud and clear I hear my inner voice
Sometimes I wonder
What would it be like to be in your arms again
Ha.but all these sores are sharp reminder of the pain
Your eyes looking at me tenderly
And then memories of them burning with jealousy
Vicious chain of sweet surrender and toughest struggles
Honey laced endearments interspersed with sharpest words
Lovely night disappearing in torturous days
Young love losing to lifes tumultuous ways
Sweet hearts the darkest enemies
Feeling of betrayal yet to cease
Pressures tore us apart
Some tough times
Some mistakes
Oh how did we lose our way
Instead of holding on we pushed each other away
Over and over
We hurt each other
Until there was no more heart to break
Came so far
Of going back there seems no way
If only I could turn back time
And start all over again
I can't love anyone else
And yet
No one else can I hate
All is lost
Maybe someday...
Only the hope stays

Beauty And The Beast
01/25/04

Once upon a time
Faraway from the town up in a tower
Close to sky
Untouched by creatures of the earth
Lived little beauty
She played on the mountain
With rabbits and birds
And she heard the shepherd sing to his herds
She wondered what would it be like to play with them
To dance in a circle holding hands
Why can't I go down in the valley
She asked the king
There's so much I see from up here
That I'd love to go and feel
What its gonna be like down there
Lovely princess
Said the king you are still a little birdie
Don't know how to fly
You go down there
When you got wings that can make you fly
Okay daddy she said aloud
She wondered if she'd ever have wings
But king how could she doubt
So she waited
Days turned to weeks
Weeks into years
And yet wings weren't there
In the spring she saw the valley
Painted in every hue
The birds chirped
And children played
The shepherd sang
And she couldn't stand it anymore
Scared as she was
Yet one look at the shepherd
And her fears fled away
He smiled up to her
And in his big brown eyes
She lost her way
Under the cerulean skies
He pledged his undying love
His sweet lilting voice
And sweet embrace
Oh valley so sweet
Why did I spend all that time up there
When in his arms I could spend these years
Slowly shadows began to stretch over the beautiful vale
Under the dark skies they kissed
Her eyes closed
She was living her childhood dream
Then she felt a terrible tug at her heart
A sharp pain seared through her
And she screamed
She opened her eyes
Gone was her shepherd
With her heart in his hands
Standing instead was a beast
And as sun came up over the horizon
There was nothing left but to run
And run she did
To her tower
Along the way
Tears she cried bloomed into flowers
Of countless hues
Vale lovelier than ever

Now she sits at her tower
And hears his sweet voice call out to her
She closes her eyes and wonders
Will she ever find a heart
To venture into the valley
And find her shepherd again

She Is Still Wondering...
