Everything you say and do
Seems to hit a chord deep inside
My words break your heart
Like whispers of honey bees
Floating round the flowers
Taking the pollen and the goodness
To make something beautiful
Is this how you feel about me?
When my words create a world of wonder
A place of sanctuary
To fulfil your dreams each night
The longing and despair
Am I right in saying
Is because I'm not there?

So how would you take it?
If I said I've fallen in love with you
Would you be real or fake it?
Could you say you love me too?
If I had to start over again
I'd want it to be in your arms
I want to be your everything
Enwrapped in your tender loving charms

I’m found on the edge of the night
Lying on the ground, on cold concrete
Like a fish out of water
Waiting for someone to put me where I belong
Or suffocate among the rapturous vultures
Gathered round in glee ~
Ostensibly, I was born here
Yet everything seems foreign
The people, the cars they drive
The things they do everyday
I’m overzealous in my thoughts
Of who I am
Where I am
Why am I here?
What am I supposed to do?
Nothing feels real anymore
If in fact, it ever did
Like E.T. left behind
Wanting to go home
I see nothing familiar when
Through these streets, I roam ~
Everyone seems to take it in their stride
It’s all so natural for them
It is not so normal for me
I go on pretending I am living, not dying inside
No one sees the real me ~ lost and alone
No one gets inside this soul, you see?
Then I get to thinking
Are everyday people pretending? Just like me
Is everyone as in control as they appear?
Or are they faking it too?
The only thing true of the big lie
Faking it or not in this life
No one will get out ~ *alive

These miss you nights go on forever
Echoes from my mind, to my heart
Through my core ~
Yet they never
Whisper any notion of
When the waiting will be over

Misty coloured mornings
Gradually appease daylight hours
Into nights injuriously
Adept in loneliness.
You are not here
To wane these solitary nights
That go on endlessly

My security, is your love
A deep feeling of joyfulness
From the second
I looked in your eyes
When I saw my name
Written in your soul
On the nights - I miss you most

These are the moments I console myself with
Until the dream becomes a living reality

We danced around our feelings
Somewhat lacking the emotional prowess
To move forward and say what each of us
Needed to hear.
We longed for that inkling of acknowledgement
From a distance, far and wide
From an echo felt hollow inside
Awaiting the response that confirmed
“It must be love”
And yet ~
...........One simple word created a story
...........One destined to live
Beyond the infinity of the Universe
Lifetime...........after ...........lifetime
In this world ...........perpetually...........reborn
