Love

A burning consumes my soul
As I gaze upon thee
Yet you do not see
You are my goal

Slowly you turn and walk away
Though I do stay
My heart goes with you
Oh, if you only knew

My days are filled with visions of you
Yet our moments together are so few
I try to speak, what is in my heart
Yet again you are gone before I start

One day we meet in the park
On a night left dark
On a bench do we sit
My mind races, yet I have no wit

Taking your hand, in both of mine
I look deep into your eyes
Now is the time
Yet a coward still lives in me

I gaze upon thee
Your lips so soft and full
Your hair, long and flowing
Your manner, so carefree

Your eyes, sparkling
Diamonds in the sky
Your face, soft and lovely
Like a porcelain doll

Yet in me is a fear
Of which I cannot speak
Then you smile, the spell you break
And you hear

Now I am at peace
My heart rejoices
Together do we say
I love you.

Almost doomed by a horrible journey,
Of love-cloaked by obsession and jealousy,
Was blinded that beyond my world - so small
Life doesn't exist after all.

The last bead of courage helped me out
My fate has changed, without a doubt.
I've never been so free like this!
My heart is calm, my soul at ease!

Still, loneliness pokes every night,
I long for love, I cannot hide.
But you , My Prince, just came for me!
With so much love and sympathy.

I couldn't fathom how I feel,
But all I know, you're here to heal.
You are my source of strength within,
From withered life, I live again.

What will complete my flow of grace?
Your caring touch and warm embrace!
My heart craves to be with you,
Your love is pure, meek and true..

A football stadium stands in hushed silence -
Remarkable as it is full complete.
They've gathered to watch gifts of the feet
And ponder on someone who could dispense
What must have seemed like gifts of Providence,
Who learned from kicking footballs in the street
And came to render tactics obsolete.
This man the crowd in silence now laments.
Diseased, deserter, herald of changed times -
Embarassed then that it had all gone wrong
For you who stood so high above the rest?
Forgiven by this one who always rhymes,
Poor fella, his mind simply wasn't strong
And we who love the game have lost the best.

Attended a funeral today of a friend,
A memorable character right to the end.
Can't imagine him not being 'round any more,
It's hard to believe he'll not be at my door.
I heard at the funeral a story so true
Of an old naval buddy who came to pay due
Who slept on the floor 'side the hospital bed
Until his friend finally was pronounced dead.
The depth of his loyalty just ran so deep
A beautiful tribute forever we'll keep.

ah to feel a hold of a love,

how long ago this may be..


She died so so long ago,

haste not to date sence,

or let i get hurt by death of two.

Ah to feel a hold of a love,

would be lovely,

would be awsome,

but, must i take a risk?

Must i loose yet another child,

and possible wife?


Ah there in deed lies the quetion,

in my life...

What is love
When your heart misses a beat
Your eyes open wide
Your legs tremble with desire

To be near but so from her glare
You look but dare not stare
You turn away when she looks at you, she smiles
your legs tremble with desire

With sweating palms and feeling faint
You dare not look away
To hold her smile her longing gaze to be near you dare not look away.

The chill of the cold bare room
A bench for a bed
No blanket to keep me warm
I try to rest my tired head

the darkness from the world outside through the double square pained glass
The ever lasting night
Cold the room is the constant glare of the light shining bright
Voisces I hear the shouting get me out of here
The slamming of the steel door

The constant chill the basic toilet calling to me to wee in in the thought of some ome glarein watching me starin the feeling of neglect the dirt on the walls the graffiti left by the others that have been within the room before the hatch opens a face appears
Are you allright go to sleep you have along night

The endless chill of the night air
This endless room i can not bare the pain the solitude the isolation for am the only one in the room
Locked away with out the key

Waiting for the morning to come so I can be free and have some fun

If I could hold your hand just one more time
If I could see your face, so dear,
I would tell you Merry Christmas Daddy
'Cause Christmas time is here
I would have you put the lights up
(That is something only Daddy's do)
And put the angel on top of the tree
Then, Daddy, your job is through
Sit yourself down now and relax
While we decorate the tree
And off and on throughout the night
Maybe I'll sit upon your knee
The fire is going, don't worry Daddy
We promise not to let it get too high
Snow is coming, it'll be a white Christmas
Just take a look at that cloudy sky
Here's a plate for you Daddy
And ,oh, the aroma it brings
It's your favourite, mincemeat tarts
And they were made fit for a king
But most of all Daddy, as I kneel by your side
I would tell you how very much I love you
And how you fill my heart with pride.

If I could bring you back for just one day
Oh, Momma, how good it would be
To rest my head upon your lap
And feel your arms 'round me
If I could bring you back for just one day
During this time of peace on earth
I would sit you in a chair made for a queen
So that I could show you your worth
No kitchen for you this year Momma
No slaving over a hot wood stove
Sit down and put your feet up
Relax and take off that heavy load
No, we never really showed you
How much we loved all you did
How special you made Christmas for us
But then, we were just kids
And so this year, here's your coffee
I so hope I made it just right
Let me get you your slippers, Momma
So that you can relax this night
But most of all dear Momma
If I could just have you here
I'd whisper to you gently
"I love and miss you, dear"

When Tomorrow Starts Without Me

When tomorrow starts without me, and I am not there to see
If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry the way you did today,
While thinking of the many things we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me, as much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me, I know starts you'll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand
That an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand,
And said my place was ready, in Heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind all those that I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away, a tear fell from my eye,
For all my life I'd always thought I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for, so much yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays, the good ones and the bad.
I thought of all the love we shared and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday, just even for awhile,
I'd say goodbye and kiss you and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realize that this could never be,
For emptiness and memories would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things I might miss come tomorrow
I thought of you, and when I did, my heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through Heaven's Gate I felt so much at home
When God looked down and smiled at me from His great golden throne.
He said, "This is eternity, and all I've promised you.
Today your life on earth is past, but here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow, but today will always last,
And since each day's the same day, there's no longing for the past.
But you have been so faithful, so trusting and so true,
Though there were times you did some things you knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven, and now at last you're free.
So won't you take my hand and share my life with me?"
So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me, I'm right here in your heart.
