Winter dawns the day
Renewing the great and small
A bird sings of love
The bear sleeps the season away
As a mother keeps her children warm
Time moves on
Today we are here
Tomorrow we are gone
In the mist of darkness
A light begins
Growing with each passing day
Given to the pain
Ones forced to labor
As the winds chill the moonlit night
All is well
In the end
When the sands of time pour out
A faint cry stirs the soul
Life begins to slip away
The old will die
As a newborn cries
Completing the circle of life
Donald Malone Aug 2018
Where is the ghost
That has hold over me
Taking my love
Never to give me
Why does my love
Hide from me
Never to be seen
Even when in front of me
I write of a love
That can never be
A love
That won't set me free
I'm set to roam
This life without love
When death has called
My love to be
I wait for the day
When death awakens me
Then my love
Will set me free
Never more I'll long to see
Then finally my love
I'll see thee
Donald Malone Aug 2018
I thought you were family
Even my best friend
I loved you like a brother
Just to hate you in the end
More and more it would be
When you'd fall short
Lost was all you could see
But I was there to help you
To keep you on your feet
I was there for you more
Than you will ever see
But when it comes to you
It's always me me me
I've gave you more
Than you'd ever admit
This chapter is over
The books now through
Time to give credit
Where credit is due
There's no one to blame
No one but you
For all I've done
To see you through
You stabbed me in the back
All the way through
I gave you my friendship
Loyalty and trust
So you can throw it away
Blowing like dust
This is about a person I thought was a friend.

Let me die tonight
To finally let you go
May I wake up in the light
So I can be free
To find my way home
I was never worthy
Not good enough for you
The way you went away
Told me it was true
You were my muse
I was your sin
Only to destroy us
Leaving our friendship
At a bitter end
We cant go back
To start anew
For all is lost
Between me and you
I called the moon
The stars and its light
Holding in my hands
Waiting to give
Give only to you
Nothing in this world
I wouldn't do
Anything you wanted
I would have give
Given to you
Time now lost
This day must end
Leaving a void
Nothing can fill in
What once was precious
Soon ill forget
Never more to hold
From this day hence
Donald Malone Aug 2018
We've seen the future
We've seen the past
Your days are numbered
Your life wont last
All thats happened
And all that will be
Forever to be known
Throughout eternity
Fulfill your work
Your time is short
Soon you will die
And lay below the earth
Love your family
Spend time with your friends
Never knowing
When your time will end
The road has been laid
That travels two ways
A path must you choose
You can not refuse
When you've reached the end
And breathe no more
You'll walk the earth
Till you cross over
Make the best in this life
That only you lead
So when you die
Your soul will be free
Donald Malone Aug 2018
You are my love
That's not meant to be
For only the love
Comes from me
If only you could see
All you have given me
Then maybe
Your heart would fall
Like it did with me
I'll stay true
With my love For you
For everyday
Your love sees me through
There may be others
That try a spark or two
But all my love
Has been given to you
I came into this world alone
Waiting for a love
To call a home
But the love I am to find
Is not meant to be
For it comes
Only from me
Donald Malone Aug 2018
A friend you'll be
Always to me
No matter the cost
Whatever the need
I am your sorrow
I feel your pain
Even through the storms
Ill stop the rain
Through the doubt
Anxiety and fear
Ill be there
To wipe away the tears
No one can hurt you
When your with me
Ill always protect you
No harm will come to thee
I share your smile
Joy and laughter
When we're together
Or miles apart
And when my time has come
From my body I must depart
Ill soar like an angel
From our friendship
Ill never depart
Donald Malone Jan 2019
Never no more
Will I fall
For what my heart desires
When it's all for vain
Once we were friends
Only to become my muse
Writing the words
That tore my reality
I wrote of love
All that I feel
The only way to tell you
All that you mean to me
Now you hide
So far away
With time
Your memory fades
Leaving nothing
But a heart that can never mend
Lost are the words
Held within
Never to be written
Or given again

— The End —
