once upon a time
long ago
there was a you and me

i knew you once
and it was nice
silence was comfy
and we didnt have to try

i knew you once
long ago
you shared your secrets
and i shared mine

i knew you once
long ago
but where did you go...?

Bright eyes that see colors everywhere rather than a drab monochromatic view  of the world

A nose that can appreciate good Scotch and night-blooming jasmine, at the same time

Ears that can hear Mozart and Queen, a cascading waterfall, and the click-click of a puppy’s paws

A mouth that can open wide to condemn evil but stay tightly shut when listening to a friend

Apathy is death
Eyes ****** red
Liquor on my breath
Sick in my bed
And I cannot forget
The words that she said

You are like chocolate
But much better
You are like a drug
But much more addictive
Your eyes are like sea
But much warmer
You are my dream
But not my reality

Girl, you scared me to death
I look down and see red
I have blood on my hands

These visions they plague me
I know your feelings, you’re faking
I can feel your heartache from a thousand miles away

My visions they hurt me
The spirits they’re lurking
‘Round every dark corner, I’m learning
From all my mistakes, All my heartbreaks

Why did god put me on this journey?
To have loved and have lost
My peace of mind was the cost
Now I’m nailed to the cross

In my dream I adore you
in reality, not so
In my dream I trust you
In reality, not so
In my dream
You don’t love me
so now, please go

A cloud carries me
up to a radiant star
rain blurs my vision

Scrupulous green brilliance
splashes of pink, yellow
summer's sun kisses
surges of downpours nourish
until.....
