As I dance across the meadow,
I hear you call out
As I wade through the stream,
I see you catching trout
Although you may not know me,
I have seen you many a day
As through the fields I go,
Sometimes you watch me play
You sit comfortably
Inside your home
As I sit under a tree,
In my hand a large tome
I read the words aloud to you
Though you may not understand,
And in my voice you hear
The tides ebbing over sand
It makes you nostalgic,
Longing for warmer days,
Evenings spent darting
All through the heavy haze
You steal through the darkness
One with the night,
And I watch one last time,
As you take flight
You’ve kept me company
Through these long years
Now with you I’ll soar,
So dry your tears
Through the air you flit,
Welcoming wings lifting
My soul is free to fly with you,
Simply just existing

We all have a flame,
A small young spark,
Waiting to ignite,
Alone in the dark.
It watches and waits,
For someone to appear,
Who can take away,
It's worldly fear.
It's a small fear, really,
Of being extinguished.
But the heart refuses
To be diminished.
It slowly beats
Until it sees them.
A rising crescendo,
A sparkling gem.
The brain does back flips
The body shuts down
And all you want to do
Is take them down town.
A night they won't forget,
A face they'll always remember
Until the day
That flame becomes an ember

We toil all day
In the heat of the sun
Just for the night
For life's true fun
Dancing across
Meadows with glee
The cornfields whisper
"Sing to me"
So sing I do
Loud and clear
My voice proudly ringing
For nature to hear
The birds hear me
The crickets too
But I wish so hard
That the one who heard was you
I think back
To long summer nights
Dancing about
In the gentle moonlight
I miss you so
It's like a trance
Just longing
For one more dance
Barefoot in the meadows
Dancing quietly
Swaying side to side
Content that you're with me

A mighty roar
Shakes the Earth
Mother Nature
Has given birth
A new storm
Powerful and strong
Lightning like spears
Thunder like a gong
It ushers in an
Era of fear
The clouds keep coming
And the sun decided to dissapear

A shining place
All a'gleam
Sadly, though
It was just a dream
A dark place
Undone at the seam
Thankfully, though
It was just a dream

It's a noble thing
Sacrifice
But for me
It's my only vice
People throw themselves
In harm's way
For people that might not
Live out the day
You might save their life
You could be a martyr
Are you willing to risk it?
It's your life to barter
It's senseless to me
To risk your life
Only to die
And cause more strife

They look in reverence
Upon my face
They think I'm a goddess
From an unknown race
I hide the truth
From all of them
I'm not here to save
But to condemn
I'm no angel
But they don't know
I've long since fallen
Far below
I see their sins
Plain as day
And when they die
They will pay

I stare out the window
Thinking of you
About all the things
We used to do
My reflection stares back
Somber and tired
Things drift in my head
That were once desired
I hear the rain
Pitter and patter
Thinking of things
That no longer matter
You aren't here
You're too far away
I wish you were by me
At least for today

A quiet murmur
A gentle breeze
A person weaves through a crowd
With grace and ease
A silent breath
A sinister shuffle
A person follows behind
With intent to start a scuffle
A whispered word
A silent exclamation
A person watches
With awed fascination
A silent fight
A will of iron
A person loses focus
With the wail of a siren
A sudden scramble
A runaway
A person locks the door
With life for another day
A sigh of relief
A pounding heart
A person who has no defense
With resolution to start
A gentle breeze
A quiet whimper
A person dreams
With a voice like a whisper

Fall is my favorite season
A prettier sight you'll never see
It would be fun to take a walk
And have you right beside me
A joyous laugh
Rings loud and clear
I makes me happy
To see you near
I love your smile
Your infallible grace
You've got beautiful eyes
In a wonderful face
Your hand slips into mine
Walking together
Hoping so desperately
That it lasts forever
