He wondered what it would be like
To be water,
Flowing through the rocks and reefs,
Nothing could bind him,
Nothing to harm him underneath, within,
the soul weeps.

There was once a civil war,
And he was a soldier
Barely hanging on to life,
Kept going through the smoke-fire-pain
Love lost, lost his love in the rain.

Dropped to his knees and asked God why,
He would take away the one thing he was living for.

His dear love was the only reason he'd
Awaken each day and dream each night-
Picturing how happy they would be
Kept him moving still.

God looked down on the man and said,
"None of us get to choose when or how,
or what we lose."

The soldier placed one foot in front of the other
On solid ground
And found the strength to stand,
Until one day he'd rest his head
In a place where angels sing
And see his true love's face
And feel her in his embrace.

Now all that's left on this earth
Tells just a piece of their story,
Found one day buried deep
In the ground,
A wedding ring engraved with the words,
"Forever Love..."

I hear you...

Voice in the dark
Heart of my heart.
Settle in this fold.
Out of the cold,
One day we'll be old.
Comforting warmth,
Out of the rain,
Listening to it again.
Your arms surround
All of me in your hold.
Something tells me,
You'd never
Abandon.
Heart of my heart.
Settle in this fold.
Never to grow cold.

It's the time of year
That tears can
Make a stream
Under your left eye,
Counting the minutes,
haunting memories
Visit like drafts
Coming from the edges
Of a window when
October smiles its
Wide grin of
Oranges and lemons
And laughs while
You shiver
And now I sit and wonder
Solemnly to myself
What it would be like
In (your) arms one day...
Would long-past memories
Be erased?
To greet us with a warm embrace?
I sit here and wonder
About you

I was walking in opaque
In a mist of blurred lines,
On the trail
Of something
Of someone not meant to find.

In that moment,
I stood on the dirt,
And looked up through the fog
To see through the clues
That led me to resolve,
Then to you.

I was lost in a maze
with no exit.

Now I'm face to face
With another,
Never meant to uncover.
From day one
We were never meant
To know each other.

Standing on the abstract
Verge of something...

Colors merge in my mind,
All was obscured
And now I can see
But not feel.

And all along
I was never meant to
Uncover you.

So many colors blend,
Blurring the truth
And I'll never
See through to you.

Cold can be so warm,
On the outside of truth

Crashed below the water
Heavy and sunk
To the bottom
so far, so far
From where
The edge scrapes life
Underneath disguise

Took hold
Of temporary
Youth
Reflection holds the truth

It is so cold,
In open air
Above the pool
Where bodies swim
Say hello
Meet and embrace
In the blue

There is love, up high
Reaching
Reciting
What you believe
Love under the surface,
Scratched away
To find proof
On the outside of truth

It's hard to let go and hold on

Let go for a little while...

Dangling from a star
In ebony space

Invisible,
Dangling
Hanging on to how it feels
Drowned in incandescence

Lost in the void
Lost in the void

Touched your fingertip
Before floating away

Oh no
Where did you go
Oh no
Found yourself,
The tip of where
You can't see
Or ever go

Lost in the void
Lost in the void

Always dangling there
Waiting for a glimpse
Of something far off,
Galactic

Still hanging on,
Dangling,
Crystalline trellis
Covered head to toe
With heavenly glow
Danced in Jupiter's rain  
Under Callisto's light
And nothing could compare
Shining with a million colors
The whole time
Dangling

Lost in the void
Lost in the void
