She looked into the mirror a reflection she hoped to see “Who am I who have I become?” the reply was answered “Nobody” She stood up and turned to him tears frozen in her blue eyes A look of sadness upon his face as she told to him her last good bye’s Fair thee well Fair thee well your time has come and past go to her with an open heart find peace and love at last She bowed her head and walked away into the cold misty brine never more, just no one only a dream once upon a time…

Nobody
It’s the bits and pieces that I let you see The parts of which fall from me Like the ****** tears from the crying stone Gathering around, but I’m still alone Smiling and laughing as I die inside Nothing to gain nothing to hide Wishing that someone would just care Seeing that no one is really there Am I just a ghost or really here? Not knowing the answer is my worst fear You see me, you see through me No acknowledgement no apathy This is all that’s left of me…

Bits and Pieces
I sat down next to you And held your hand But yet you did not Feel me I smiled at you Your stare was straight Ahead As if you never even Acknowledged me I came up to you To kiss your lips But you slowly turned And walked away I saw you kneeling down And bent to comfort you Only to see That I was the one in the ground…

Ophelia's Lament
Hollowed and empty seemed to be your tune Playing on the piano in the crowded room Soulless eyes the color of grey blue Glimmered in the candlelight of your hollow tune The waiter came over and a drink appeared A red glass of wine it could have been tears You sipped slowly as you play along Beating out tunes to a sad sad song I sat and wondered what made you this way Who was she, did your heart she play? Was it a passionate love or was it lust Did she really care or was it a bust? I guess I will never know the truth Walking out to your lonely tune…

Piano Man
I hear your voice on the other end reaching out from across time I sense the smile upon your face your laugh takes me back to the pines and of that day the sun and shadows that danced across the ground your strong arms enfolding me speaking volumes without a sound your tender lips upon my cheek the whisper of love in my ear the plans that you had made for us assuring me there was nothing to fear and as we walked along the stream barefoot and full of hope we both knew this was our last we were walking that thin tightrope nothing goes the way it should fate takes her toll making dreams into memories showing us who is really in control I still hear it in your words

Had I Stayed
I never fully understood The paths my feet walked The briars that reached out To scratch the brambles that clung to my soul cross roads that I often stood at wondering which direction I need to go which road I need not go back on And where do I wind up at? Still have not found the end The journey goes on Through time and space Leaving me to learn the lessons Over and over again

Labyrinth
It lies there dormant at times Waiting for a chance to escape Patiently plotting what next to do Knowing soon that I will break Slowly it emerges from sleep Flowing freely through my veins Settling in to rest within me It is whom I blame It mocks me with every twist and turn A Symbiotic relationship I wish not to have Invading every fiber of my being Making this once proud rebel a slave No longer am I able to be That strong person I was In place now just a fragile shell Who does nothing but withdraw Maybe soon there will be a cure For this evil that is within Before my body is faded and dead And I can regain my life again…

The Evil Inside
I am losing myself to this darkness. I do not know which way to turn. The light I no longer see. I only feel pain. Nothing like this before has overtaken me and this I do not understand. I am confused. I cannot help those who need me if I cannot help myself. When shall this darkness lift? When shall the light return? When will this pain go away? I have never been this way in my life. I am at a loss for words. I sit all day staring out the window watching the leaves fall from the trees. I watch as the others come and go, as the door slams shut and opens once again as they return. And yet, I sit. I wait. And I still do not understand these feelings that I have.

The Unknown
The pearl necklace fell From her ivory neck They did scatter amoungst The cracks and crevasses Of the empty tomb Emotions that had long Since been scattered Scurrying along the stone To the sound of rats and mice She counted as they ran From her fingertips Not wanting capture By her cold cold hands Not wanting to entrapment On a cold cold neck The string had broken Much as her spirit The golden clasp has rusted Much like her heartstrings She sat down alone As withered as the roses In the vase dusty crystal vase Remembering a time before When youth was best wasted In the undergrounds of Paris Where beauty, her beauty Reigned effulgent When she never gave a thought To anything other than dark desire She feels my presence around her She knows that I have come I pick up the white orbs That did escape from her To place them all Back in her rigored Dead hand
