Alone in silence with my thoughts
Rain pouring like tears from my eyes
Cold and damp the earth feels
Hearing echos of my sighs
Placing my chin in my hands
Closing my eyes trying to see
Is there anything out there somewhere
That could be waiting just for me
Like a beautiful rose in bloom
Or the sun to fill my day with light
Warmth to blanket my lonely soul
Maybe just the sounds of the night.
Moonlight to paint my face with smiles
Stars to capture my deepest thoughts
Carrying them away into the night
Bringing back to me what I have sought.
Words filled with strength and emotion
Flowing like a river through a valley
Seeking the minds of others to enrapture
Leaving me with no more to worry.

Sadness lives to hollow the heart
Its pleasure is our pain
It abides in darkness and fear
It lives for weakness to gain.
Burying itself within our minds
Trying to steal our dreams
Desiring one tear to fall
Knowing it shall succeed.
Sadness is but a figment
That of which we can control
If we refuse to get lost within it
It cannot deprive our souls.
Our strength and our wisdom
Keeps us standing tall
As long as we fight sadness
We are saved from it all.

Yesterday I cried a river, of lonely tears for you
My heart it breaks in pieces, for I know not what to do.
I want to feel your touch, and kiss your lips of sweet,
To whisper to you softly, and hold you as you sleep.
Today I cried a river, of lonely tears for you
For I am scared in many ways, and know not what to do.
The feelings that I hold, go way beyond belief,
But telling you how I feel, could be my true relief.
Tomorrow if I cry a river, of lonely tears for you
My heart will open up, and I'll know just what to do.
I'll have to tell you that I love you, it may be to soon to say,
I'd rather say it now then wait, because I'm feeling so afraid.
No more to cry a river, of lonely tears for you
My love has found his way to me, we've started something new.
Today I smile an ocean, of happiness with no more fears
I say goodbye forever, to the river of lonely tears.

As I set here feeling all alone
I'm thinking of all the moments..
When we held each other and laughed
til we ached with joy...
and tears trickled down our faces.

Remembering the way you smile
at me...like it is the first time
every chance you get.
And the way you kiss me
like it is the last chance...
Every chance I give.

Remembering all the sweet words
you say to me...
But even more, the way you say them.

I pray, one day, we can think back
on these moments...
As we sit in silent comfort,
Holding each other close, because
it's all we know to do..
Through all the rough times our love
abides... stronger than anything else
ever could.

Remembering how you look
deep into my eyes...
But even more, how it makes me feel.

Remembering the way that you touch
my face,
And the way that I hold yours...
when we make love.
Or when you whisper in my ear,
just to say "you love me"..
And the way it makes me smile.

Now, I want you to remember the way
I look at you,
With big eyes and a bottomless heart...
Always wondering if you know how
truly wonderful I think you are.
And although I've hurt you more than
I ever wanted to do...
I want you to remember.....
I love you now and forever...
Like it's never going to hurt.

As I peer into the mirror, what is it I see?
A beautiful face staring back at me.
Though the image is different than that of my own
There are a few resemblances that are clearly shown.
You are there, it is you that I see,
That beautiful face that stares back at me.
Reflections of a love so true,
The bond that was shared between me and you.
The things that you taught me, the love that you hold,
Are the reasons why I am so strong and so bold.
You gave to me wings and allowed me to soar,
You gave to me, life, and I owe you much more.
Cherish your "MOTHER"  and the love that she gives,
For a reflection of life, oh, how precious it is.
From this day forward in the mirror there will be,
Reflections of my mother staring back at me.

To my mother, my angel, I love you, and miss you so much!

A garden of despair
Or sadness you may see.
Beauty is beyond it all
As for here, is just a dream.
It's elegance and silence
Take my soul to faraway
The beauty it beholds
Is why I come to dream each day.
In this peaceful place I sit
A gentle breeze always blows
Somewhere midst the silence
Is where all my dreams doth go.
When night begins to beacon
I am awakened from deep in sleep
As I stand to leave this peaceful place
My dreams it shall safely keep.
For another day is arising soon
Calling me nearer to thee
Back in this peaceful place
I'll return to continue my dream.

I do not seek your company
Nor do I seek your time
All I seek is your soul
I want to make it mine.

Come, walk with me
In darkness, and cold
Feel a life of emptiness
Your hand I shall not hold.

You'll crawl like a pathetic maggot
Through my fleshy droppings
Bowing at my feet, you need me
For now there is no stopping.

You seek to find me everywhere
When I am not around
For summoned into evil
Forever you are bound.

Now I seek your company
I shall always seek your time
Pathetic maggot you've become
Wallowing in my grime.

It was you who beckoned me
Begging for me to appear
Now that I have come for you
Your request you must adhere.

I recall the good insisting
That you please not beckon me
Since you did not take the advice
You now belong to me.

I can mold you any way I choose
make you anything I please
You are now a pathetic maggot
A server unto me.

Once you beckoned unto me
Your soul you did sell
The time has come for you
To rot away in hell.
