Far removed, yet etched deep within.
No! Not even time could mend
when death danced upon a grin.

Days wore your mind and body thin.
Burdensome is this task to witness the end,
But it stays far removed, yet etched deep within.

At life's end where should one begin?
A mom, a dad, a teacher, a friend,
and still death danced upon a grin.

Day to day. I must go on again.
Without you is grueling to comprehend,
so it stays far removed, yet etched deep within.

These thoughts of you sometimes spin;
Making it impossible to pretend
death didn't dance upon a grin.

The love you left is genuine
and on all you've taught I will depend.
The day death danced upon your grin
is far removed, yet etched deep within.
For my mother

A writer’s inspiration can be found in all things and in no things at all.

It's the little things that brighten your soul
Just a little bit more then it was before
To be captured is unlikely, yet you have found it so freely
Feel how serene in that moment you have seen
For such beauty created is unique and will never repeat

To not know what you want to find does not mean you will not find it; for the greatest things found were the ones not sought out.

Blooming Flowers, Beating heart

Touch of love, unknown touch

Seeking eyes, for unseen looks

Smiles of warmth, warming smiles

Blooming flowers, love is growing

Showing without knowing, knowing what to show

Yearning for unity, union is dreamt

Reaching out forbidden, natural outreach given

Blooming Flowers, blossom together

Looking at your soul through the windows we've been given

Fills mine with all its been missin'

Years could crawl by and I wouldn't mind

Showing what your soul is made of, so full of life

Growing with passion as it is joined with mine

Search more and you could not find

Two stars bound so close, as one they surely shine

When you call me beautiful
What does it mean?
What exactly do you see?
One is ever lasting
The other is passing


When you tell me you love me
What is its meaning?
What exactly are you feeling?
One is deep within your soul
The other is easy to be told


When you tell me forever
How long do you mean?
Where exactly will we be?
One is intertwined in happiness
The other dwells in loneliness
