I dive into a galaxy of magnetic chaos and float along radioactive, purple, clouded skies absorbed into the atmosphere I begin to come alive I spiral atop a mountain of stars let my fingers roll along the currents and ripple out oceanic outer-space i no longer have a doubt My mind expands into a stormy sea as worlds collide and turn to dust a million years have come to pass yet I haven't learned to trust... zero gravity, or my proximity; to what is real. Staring straight ahead now, face to face with... this infinite turning wheel I reach out and touch the fallen ash of ever-changing times a wounded winged angel can finally start to fly

Submerged in the Galaxy
I know we had something special But those days are gone I know we lost it all Yet we must carry on One time for the good fight One time for one more night And I still dream of you And I still dream…. Again we’ll be Why do I always fall back You knock me down over and over again I think Im sick I think im sick on loving you If I could just turn around And walk away now That’s what I would do One time for the good fight One time for one more night And I still dream of you And I still dream…. Again we’ll be If I walked away Would you even care at all? If I was alone and restless Would you help break the fall? No? One time for the good fight One time for one more night And I still dream of you And I still dream…. Again we’ll be I’m such a fool And your too cruel I'm such a fool For loving you

Fool For Love
Swing sets and park benches A kiss on the lips At 6 years of age, does it get better than this? You soared away Disappeared for a while But when you returned I remembered your smile The years flew by And you didn’t change At 21 years old You came back the same. Genuine and true Giving and kind A kiss on the mouth And again you were mine But I had to go I was chasing big dreams You understood, We approached different things And as I left I swore we’d always be friends The look in your eyes swore We’d meet again So I spread my wings And had started to fly But as I left The angels fell from the sky As they took you away, to a brighter place I became lost, until I met with Grace And as you rose to the heavens Time here traveled sure Although giving up seemed easy It’s life we endure And if I am certain of one thing now, It’s this I learned from you: (quote)“It’s not the year in our life, but the life in our years, that makes all the difference” So until my time comes I will chase these dreams You will lift me up, so I can fly Despite my broken wings. And when the day comes And it’s my time to depart I’ll be with you again forever, As you remain in my heart.

A First and Last Kiss
Can you come over tonight and fill this void? I’ve been waiting for so long to dance. You taught me how to play the game though I never stood a chance. For now I’ll just **** the nights away Looking for nothing but the bottom of a bottle. With only myself to blame I lay naked and cold for all to see. Tongue tied again My vocal chords have swelled This empty canvas is colored black My heart now beats to the stabbing pain in my back. (A subtle reminder of how we left things) but for now ill **** the nights away (with him) looking for noone and nothing I walk around with a hollowed grin Pretending I can still feel something It’s not the same No its not the same But im tired of standing up just to fall down again Sick of the so-called game we play I surf the night on the harshest of winds So for now Ill **** the nights away Cause there is no turning back I just want what was rightfully mine from the start Surrender the other half of this beating heart.

The Other Half
It’s hard to see past the uncertain grey skies that hover outside my window I push forward, in search for the truths we all desire Can love be born again? Bittersweet are the sparkling shadowed clouds A glimmer of sunlight trying to protrude a darkened forecast I find hope in dancing among the tears of heaven As if they’re fallen angels A half smile stretches across my face At the mere thought of what comes after the rain An illumination of our universe, like the sun is a diamond Where a rainbow can be born to carry my dreams to a better place Where beauty can last And our deepest desires come true To be loved, and to love A solid ground for hope to thrive on A chance to live eternally in Paradise And Ive thought once too many times about the end I guess I just get lost sometimes inside my head Surround myself with a world of make believe But today it seems that I can finally breathe

Hope in Darkness
Clear into the distance The sun is going down the gears shift as I make my way driving out of town the open lands where the waves crash in its time to depart the open roads ill call my home hold true inside my heart my dreams as big as the salty blue and since you left I... will start anew my hopes locked away in a jar on the shelf in an old wooden church I will find myself and when the sun goes down I will not wait cause yesterdays gone and I wont be late In a rive on the opposite end of town a bottle with three words pours out but not what you'd dream not so cliche in old withered in "baby, please stay" as the sun goes down I wait for dawn the stars my fate, yesterday gone the open land as vast as my heart and the waves crash down during our depart life moves in circles and we cant escape my heart the weapon your soul my aim cause when there's nothing to lose there's all to gain

Nothing Ventured Nothing Gained
Goodbyes never come easy But yours was far too unexpected I opened up and ran away Left you lost and unprotected I thought someday we’d meet again In my heart we will always be friends I’ll dry these tears and plant a rose While in heaven our future grows I never dreamed of the day I’d have to say my goodbyes While dressed up in sorrow as my only disguise I always thought the future was on my side But my false hopes are my weakest guide I thought someday we’d meet again In my heart we will always be friends I’ll dry these tears and plant a rose While in the heavens our future grows Lost in misery A loss for words I only wish there was a way To ease this hurt Family and friends will gather near And in light of darkness We’ll release our fears Pray for the future and things to come And never forget what can’t be undone. I thought we’d meet again In my heart we will always be friends I’ll dry these tears and plant a rose While in the heavens our future grows

First Kiss. Goodbye
and it was only yesterday. a moment that past. and now i cant forget it. and I guess we'll see. what tomorrow brings. these things come when you least expect it.

so for now we'll ride out the waves of reason. until that time comes again for dreaming. we'll shift into our natural motion. let our souls take over the subtle notion.

A Blue Eyed Boy (I once saw in this crazy dream)
As the sun met the moon tonight they hung on opposite ends of the earth. But you were nowhere to be found despite the feelings inside that still lurk. I looked deeply in the mirror, as I tried to find myself. Got lost in chameleon eyes, with emotions on the shelf. When darkness had set in the moon was full; my soul was merely empty. And as the stars danced across evening skies, hope was nowhere with me. The rain clouds finally passed, but the tears they fell again How can you come and go, then call yourself my friend? I can no longer take the distance When we remain so close Who knew that it could hurt this much? To be dancing with your ghost So I run from home, to a foreign land Where I’ll meet with the earth To sink my toes in the sand. I’ll dare to find hope again Forget what I had known Find castles beside seashores To build a new home And maybe some day, I will return With a fist full of gold and a lesson I’ve learned Although pockets of treasure Can’t amount to this love The haunting of ghost were not sent from above. So while I’m away Upon my request If nothing more dream nothing less.

Dancing With Broken Dreams
Dear Boy I yet not know, I am eager to earn your heart. I look into your eyes And I see your fears. But hidden deep inside, somewhere in the back corner of your heart, you plead to escape the prison you have built yourself. As I stair into your soul, the walls you are embodied by show me how timid you are. Scared that I may tear down, something that took so long to build. But I revel not in angst, rather geniality. They say fear is the heart of hate. I see only hope for all things to come. With you, me, and the questionable world that surrounds all of us in different ways, there is a light at the end of this road we travel. And though I fear your fears, this hope is enough for me. Because I know that with hope, all is possible. And that anything that can be torn down, may be built back up. Hope is the light I see hidden past your eyes.
