For You
      I sit here and watch
As the world moves on
I slowly vanish
Each time I look
As life walks by
I'm one with the earth
The earth is dying
So am I
I cry for the world
But they are deaf to my tears
I'm here still
But soon will disappear
Do you hear me?
Or am I an echo of a cry
Do you stop?
Or walk on by
Good night sweet world
I will fight for you
For my heart, it beats
For you

Good night sweet world
I will fight for you

A WRITER'S MIND
      There you stood
Your essence fills
My very soul
I hear you cry
Your deadly scream
Only to see you fall
I catch you
But you run away
Without a single word
You watch me
Here all alone
You truly seem absurd
I hear you
As your words escape
Into my desire
I see the world
We've created
And then I see a smile
    
    
Your essence fills
My very soul
I hear you cry
Your deadly scream
Only to see you fall
I catch you
But you run away
Without a single word
You watch me
Here all alone
You truly seem absurd
I hear you
As your words escape
Into my desire
I see the world
We've created
And then I see a smile
Night Fall
      Night falls
The sun sleeps
My eyes close
Not a peep
I pray to God
Who's by my side
To stay close
As my nightmares
I ride
He holds my hand
He sings to me
He lights my night
So I can see
I am not alone
In the dark dream, I hold
I am warm in his arms
Fighting the cold

I am but a broken rose
      Here I am a broken rose with nothing but these thorns
Never in my life have I ever wanted more.
I have the sun and the moon
But without you neither exist
My heart is in danger and my soul is at risk.
What could have been
What should have been
Echo in my heart
It’s been almost a year now
Since I put my love was pulled apart.
But every day and even when the moon falls
I can hear those words from your lips
My heartache hits the wall
Your love hunts me like a wolf
Chasing me down
With a hunger for love
Yet you’re nowhere around
What could have been
What should have been
Never will be
So, grab hold of this one track ride
And set my heart free

Quote of the day
      Books are a portable dream
An escape to another world
A journey to a new land
A friend to be by your side
A chance to walk in another's shoes
Reading is love

A Picture or a Book
      A picture says a thousand words
But a book holds an entire world.

In the sky
      Up in the sky
Watching us
Is the keeper of the stars
Searching for love
He holds us dear
And watches close
When love is near
He gives us a shove
Here we are
Beneath the earth's light
Playing loves tune
Running through the night
Sending kisses
From the moon
Reminding us to be patient
For love will come soon
