I was facing death
Straight in the face
A sigh broke free
Out of apathy
I lacked the words to say
So I simple shut my eyes
Waiting for my demise
But the reaper
He walked right by me
I spit to the floor
and called to the shade
"You *******, that's right, walk away"
His laugh was stark
But hardly chilling
And with his grim, dead, voice he spoke
"Just you wait, your day will come"

I love you more than life itself
My time's been spent slowly expiring on the shelf
I've found reason to go on again
Reason to be
A place where I belong
Another verse to continue my song
No longer a solo performer
Now a duet, we take the stage
Nothing can match your beauty
Illuminated by a bold, yet setting moon
As I look at you, you look at me
And in your eyes, I see it
The boundless love you feel for me
And in your eyes, I see it
The future I've been lacking
Eternity to be spent by your side
And with you...
With you my heart will always reside

The aroma of lavender
Fills this dark, vacant, room
Your phantom here lingers
Living amongst shadows
Suddenly the air grows dull
And the scent of stale coffee regains prominence
Any remnants of you again taper away
Back to yesterday

If tiredness was next to godliness, I'm sure I'd be omnipotent.

Hand in hand, walking fields of snow. Pail and pure, as if flake fallen from the full moon above. The way her hand fits in mine, sends my heart glissading into the idea of forever. As she turns to look at me, fresh snow clinging to her hair, the term "snow angel" takes on a whole new meaning. For the first time in a long time, my heart begins to feel... whole.

Staples on a heart
Long ago fallen apart
Staples on a heart
The tears begin to start

Memories are truly dark
Everything is stark
In sorrow I embark
Memories are truly dark

Sadness is a gift
Although it carves a rift
A mind cursed to drift
Sadness is a gift
tears or tears ;) You pick.
