Growing up and moving on.

One day, when the world is still young,

I will pack up my heart

And move right along.

One day, When I feel strong,

I will listen to my heart

While it sings a new song.

One day, before I am too old,

I will not wait around

I will not so as I'm told.

Please go..

Why do you need to lie and cheat?

I am not ready to compete.

Go to her, she can have you

Leave me alone to live my life.

Why should I grovel at your feet?

I am not ready to compete.

You need me more than I need you

I’ll be fine without you in my life.

Please go now and leave me.

I will not compete.

You want her and she wants you.

What is holding you back? 

Like a vulture, picking me bare

Waiting till I have no more . 

Please go.

Games of the soul.

You forget that I am human

You think I have no soul.

A game with my emotions

My feelings pay the toll.

As I sit alone tonight

When all others feast with friends

I wonder where I went wrong.

And how do I make amends.

The rain is falling softy

The sky is painted grey

The sadness fills my heart, I know

The pain won’t go away.

My friend I wish you well.

May the morning bring you light.

I hope you never witness

The gloom I feel tonight.

This one for Eddie

Only silence now.

Memories fading away, away

Forgotten your touch, you voice

forgotten you smile.

Birthdays and anniversaries come

and go again.

Hidden away in my heart

locked up tight.

One day the release will come.

One day, but not yet.

Not yet, still much to do.

Still much to forgive.

So not yet!

This one for Pat

Lost in time

reaching out through space,

I close my eyes

and search for your face.

Your hands are my solace

Your touch I can feel

An ocean apart

And still very real.

A glimpse in the mirror

A crystal to hold

Now warm with emotion

Where once felt stone cold.

A beach walk at twilight

Cold rain on my skin

Your warmth is the comfort

I feel from within.
