Still On My Own
An abstract poem about dreaming on a lonely night.
These Walls Are Closing In
I wrote this song in 2007, a few months after my Mom passed away from cancer.I always let the melody of what i'm playing and the emotion I feel from it lead me into the song that i'm writing.I hardly ever write lyrics down and 95% of what I write just flows out of me.For this song I tried to imagine how my Dad felt after losing his wife and best friend of 36 years.
When I met you first
When I met you first To love you was my thirst I love in such a way That none has a word to say But see the greatest lover on his way To meet his partner in the bay Birds fly high and days roll by But I stand here dusk and dawn

Missing My Baby
Foolish, childish, selfish but it's... how I feel.
Tellin” Things No One Else Should Know
This is actually lyrics for a song I wrote for a female friend going through a tough time. Begins with -I can tell you things...... and then- You can tell me things... A symbolizing of an open communication of the heart between friends
Lay me down to Heaven
This is about those who claim to be christian and behave otherwise, then show up on your doorstep trying to sell you their beliefs
Apathy
a song i wrote
I’m not ready…yet.
I want to date, and then I don't...Will it happen?
Playing the Loners Game
The poem/song I wrote is complicated, yet; understandable. I grew up in the Army traveling from one state to the next, so by the time I hit my teenage years I came to realize that I was/am a loner! I really never belonged or fit in anywhere. The girls liked me and the boys wanted to fight me!! lol Til one day in December of 1988, I met this girl, she was 16 and I was 18; and from that point on life gave purpose! The word loner no longer existed. Unfortunatly, over the span of 30 years being together our love lost it's luster. A little over a year ago she told me she no longer loved, nor; wanted me anymore and that she's felt that way for a long time. When I talked of future travels out of state and perhaps living there for awhile, her thought of travels are to the mailbox! lol
Skin wear
In England, they talk about having your heart on your sleeve... in France we talk about having your heart on the edge of your skin.. à fleur de peau... which is kind of difficult to translate... on the edge doesn't give credit to it.. but the idea is there.. just underneath the surface.. I say I wear my heart on my skin.. kinda combination of both languages I guess... Anyway... I like the text.. I made a nice blues out of it!
Separate
Something from a more adolescent time Im 34 now.losing a daughter lead to drinking, drugging ,and anger that lead to growing up.I wrote this not sure if Id post it, but why not? May not be Hotel California but these were my own demons and devices I had to overcome.
No Matter How Much Whiskey I Drink
Sometimes no matter how hard we try, forgetting that certain someone is easier said than done.
The Definition Of Insanity - 06/18/19
I am the definition of insanity My Love for you keeps throwing me into the flames yet I keep running back into your arms, hoping something has changed .... Nothing Ever Changes, We continue to run around in this endless circle, Me: Lost & Confu
Choose which sorrow.
When someone who does not know how to express love has children, they pass that inability on to their child. This coupled with knowing how things can go wrong in life, creates a fear of closeness in that child because already being fragile generates the resignation of feeling like any loss will be to much to take.

The Drow's Demise/ A song for the Black Archers
In the depths of the Underdark Evil drow lurk, waiting to embark On a journey of malevolence and spite But we'll stop them dead tonight With our blades and arrows, we'll cut through their ranks We won't falter, we won't give thanks For this i

Welcome Sun
After days and days of clouds and snow and rain, the sun comes out.
In Your Wild Embrace
Unaware I wandered through the dark Unknowing the void inside my heart But then you like, a rolling whirly wind blew the dark away, a new life to begin I didn't know I was lonely till you found me With warmth grace, and passion you astound me
Sleep In my Embrace
In quiet of the night, my love, you softly doze, Your head upon my shoulder, in peaceful repose. As you breathe so gently, my simple joy is redefined Our heartbeats together, my love, our bodies intertwined. Sleep in my embrace, my dear let ev
Dreaming in Silence
I had a dream, a beautiful melody But now it's gone, just a distant memory It filled my soul, gave me wings to fly But now the silence, just echoes in my mind The music's gone, lost without a sound The rhythm's stopped, it's buried underground
Psoriasis
I have no love for the daylight I wish no one could see me Nothing to give to the darkness Except my celibacy The farther away the more I think I like you The farther away the better I feel The closer you stay the more I could do with out you
Wandering Souls
In a world of dragons and knights Little souls, abandoned in the night Their only shelter, cardboard shields Invisible to this kingdom’s honourable guilds Living day by day, in a quest for food While rich and powerful, feast with their brood
"The After Thought Of A Start" 8-26-11
I wrote this song kinda as a promise that even if i'm not the richest guy out there i have alot to offer and my love could be priceless if given a chance.
what do it take
What do it take, to have a girl that's great, connect on levels so high that you think its fate, a girl you can stare in her eyes and see she is great, a girl you would love for eternity through this life and any other place, no matter her race, or n

It is about having OCD. Always being split between it, and the rest of reality.
50 Ways to Pick Your Pocket
I went to Disney World in 2004, 1100 lighter in my billfold. I just wish I had went when I was eight.
Freeze frame.
It's morning and the street lights are still on. The road is resting it's back while the cars sleep in their driveways. Foot-free footpaths mirror the road. Unlike them, I'm wide awake - but I share in their peace.

WASTING TIME
I wrote this decades ago for an old acquaintance of mine, Louie, who often stopped by to listen to our practice jams and sometimes run our light show. Quite the socialite conversationalist he was, and handsome lady's man ("competition", at the time ...lol ; ) despite our different views about using drugs - I'm not judgemental of others choice to indulge, though I prefer to restrain from their abuse. But even then I knew that he spent far too much time frontin' instead of gruntin', never quite getting his priorities straight (ie, "Business before Pleasure", etc.) He never really grasped that this song was about him, despite my pep talks with him. Ironically, years later, I found out that he had overdosed on recreational drugs. Any more I am more vocal about cautioning those who will listen about the dangers they seem oblivious to (Read also "The 'Pillar" for inspiring that particular sect of individuals). Well, I hope posting this wasn't a Waste of Time.

Thank you Bluesky for stopping by. Kathy...
RE: NOT THE PERFECT WOMAN
Different - When I wrote this, I didn't expect to change the men's view of their perfect woman. It would be nice, but realistically - I don't think it's going to happen. Thank you for reading and for your kind comment. Kathy...
