she wants the world to know
she wants to show
she wants to know the world
personified
she wants that world to want
to know her
she kissed his mind
with lips of words
she wants the world
to know her

I will wait for the time
that when I look behind me,
you are no longer there
for you are ready to face everything
everything
with me by your side.
This hope is heavier to carry than grief.

Nothing's changed.*

You're still
the first person
I'd like to share
these moments with.
Still hoping. I'll still. As promised since the very start.

Come my lady, let me show you
I'm the one who'll get to know you
I won't let you out of my mind
I won't let you down you will find
We'll feel like our two souls are freed
I will be everything you need

If you see the moon in the sky
Think of it as my loving eye
Looking down and connecting you
To the one who's protecting you
I'll be sheltering you from harm
So walk with me, just take my arm

Let us walk into the sunrise
We don't have to live in disguise
I will not ever let you down
In a sea of emotions drown
I'll be the one to bring you out
oh my true love there is no doubt

When you see the sun is shining
On these hearts true love we're signing
It takes you from the dark to light
From ground level we will take flight
I'll let you know how love is won
I'll let you know you are the one

When people are people
It's the strangest thing to see
Because people are rarely
Who they pretend to be
Friends soon become your enemy
Smiles don their faces wide
They will profess to be walking
Fornent to God's side

The trickery and fakery
The beguiled full of charm
The only thing they want to do
Is cause you painful harm
The sweetness and the light they shine
Predatory as seen
A flick of a knife in moonlight
Quickly turns vulturine

If they seem too good to be true
It's no wonder, I say
Time will present that truth forthright
In a startling display
They garner an overdue curse
A soul ache deathless slay
So I'll take dogs over people
True friends in every way

It's scary that one day,
*We might regret all of this.
We won't. This won't end.

You didn't change my life
in a moment
but you changed it
more than any moment
can hold.
Stayed home. Hours.

Everything you say and do
Seems to hit a chord deep inside
My words break your heart
Like whispers of honey bees
Floating round the flowers
Taking the pollen and the goodness
To make something beautiful
Is this how you feel about me?
When my words create a world of wonder
A place of sanctuary
To fulfil your dreams each night
The longing and despair
Am I right in saying
Is because I'm not there?

So how would you take it?
If I said I've fallen in love with you
Would you be real or fake it?
Could you say you love me too?
If I had to start over again
I'd want it to be in your arms
I want to be your everything
Enwrapped in your tender loving charms

One day I sat lonely in a lovely lush green field,
watching the gorgeous sunrise and listening to the melodious tunes of birds.
And then out of the blue, I heard a voice which said: "I love you".
That voice was so beautiful and euphonious, and it sent thunderous zeal across my veins.
I instantly fell in love with that and I was set on a pursuit to find it.
In search of that, I sailed many seas, scaled many mountains, and journeyed many skies but still couldn't find my dream figure.
Tired of all these, I sat there again in the same place and closed my eyes.
In all the silence I heard that voice again.
This time very loud and clear.
It came from the inside of me and all this time it was with me.
And at that moment I found my best and most precious friend...within!

We danced around our feelings
Somewhat lacking the emotional prowess
To move forward and say what each of us
Needed to hear.
We longed for that inkling of acknowledgement
From a distance, far and wide
From an echo felt hollow inside
Awaiting the response that confirmed
“It must be love”
And yet ~
...........One simple word created a story
...........One destined to live
Beyond the infinity of the Universe
Lifetime...........after ...........lifetime
In this world ...........perpetually...........reborn

I’m found on the edge of the night
Lying on the ground, on cold concrete
Like a fish out of water
Waiting for someone to put me where I belong
Or suffocate among the rapturous vultures
Gathered round in glee ~
Ostensibly, I was born here
Yet everything seems foreign
The people, the cars they drive
The things they do everyday
I’m overzealous in my thoughts
Of who I am
Where I am
Why am I here?
What am I supposed to do?
Nothing feels real anymore
If in fact, it ever did
Like E.T. left behind
Wanting to go home
I see nothing familiar when
Through these streets, I roam ~
Everyone seems to take it in their stride
It’s all so natural for them
It is not so normal for me
I go on pretending I am living, not dying inside
No one sees the real me ~ lost and alone
No one gets inside this soul, you see?
Then I get to thinking
Are everyday people pretending? Just like me
Is everyone as in control as they appear?
Or are they faking it too?
The only thing true of the big lie
Faking it or not in this life
No one will get out ~ *alive
This is something I wrote a while back, and never really gave it a title... if you have any better title suggestions... I'd love to hear them.

Scarlet Niamh
She is dancing in a cloud of rain with such reckless,
joyful life that she sings a thousand melodies
with her limbs, flying by grasping
at the air around her. She forms paintings from the dark
clouds above her and, screaming
her laugh into the night, is free. The embodiment
of beauty, she is the newness of the green spring and the
sweet smell of cherry blossom which comes so easily to
the tongue; a fond memory. She is the coming
of something new, the feeling of freedom and love
which fills the hearts of the young and naive.
She is beauty embodied
in the face
of a month.
~~ She is important enough to me. ~~
