Come Back to MeI have made my decisions in this life I'm living.
Put forth my best to bring you happiness,

Sharing moments of joy and laughter.
I too am pursuing what everyone's after—

Rescue of innocenceyou have draped your innocence in the warmth of muslin
your dark eyes speak of your loneliness in this strange land
your lips whisper within yourself your desires
when they should be screaming out loud for justice

The Empty RoomThe room beckons to me,
Its silence speaks to me,
There’s a volume in its emptiness,
A mystery in its void.
The past is revealed,
The hidden is shown,
I see children in a meadow,
Playing in the embrace of twilight.
There’s a...

Pieces of a dream
Now and then things remind me.
Of a time, none could find me.
And the place where your eyes did.
In the raw candor of summer.
Where wine and secrets poured.
Out of your mouth.
Into a somnium reverb.
As the night...

Sunflowers
I'll bring Sunflowers
calling on you, Dear.
Bouquet sworn vows
until promises wear
time's ragged edge
begs my suicide flight
from top floor ledge
I miss...

Shape Shifting SoulThe songs I sang in my lives before,
still I hear sometimes in my dreams,
the silence I know from times past,
had voices that once spoke to my soul,
the tears are memories that rain through,
but the sadness...

My LoveYou were going to be my forever,
Had a whole life planned for us,
You made me lighter than a feather,
Floating, loved, careless.
All my life waiting for the girl of my dreams,
Finally found my one and only,
All...

What I believedLooking back, I shouldn't be surprised at all;
thinking of the lies they claimed were gospel true:
Humpty Dumpty didn't sit upon the wall,
families don't really live inside a shoe,
Jack and Jill just made it up about...

FarewellHe’s the same, as usual
What a boring man
Utterly delusional
Is his far-fetched plan
Sitting in the arm chair
With his eyes shut
Doesn’t seem he’s there
Where his body’s at
Would you like to tell him
What he didn’t know
If it could...

Can We Try It One More Time
It might sound crazy
But I've stumbled
Through these busy roads
North South West and East
Just find your lovely face
Here we go
Can we try one more time
Sweet candle light and wine
Can you hear me
This is your...

Just as sweet,
an epitome of sweetness
It was passionate,
took pride in being affectionate
Understood what was meant to
Loved what was supposed to
It was "love"
Until it plunged into the…...

Runaway ThoughtsAll aboard thoughts,
there's plenty of space.
Ignore what lays at the forefront,
it's about time it departed.
Outstaying their welcome,
promoting themselves as guardian.
Any excuse to be at the helm.
That's right, get closer, move to the...
