Searching far and wide
Looking for a way to the other side
You never knew the answer was within
That’s the starting point, where you must begin
Wading in water with no destination
You swim from place to place with no hesitation
But where are you going really?
Chasing outward is slowly growing
Bringing new memories without really knowing
Who are you now?
Who do you want to be?
Bring out your destination
Stop waiting for a life presentation
Search within, that’s the only way to win
You have the paintbrush
You are the artist
Find the your purpose
That’s where the start is
You walked into the scene,
Bringing me flowers and this love me scheme.
Saying a life with you was everything I need.
Asking me question to get to know me just right,
Loving me and holding me tight.
Who knew it was to hold for amo in a later fight
You changed so drastically
Stopped being you and stopped liking me
Nothing but insecurities remained
Trying to attack me while you sulked in pain
You took the love scheme
And turned it from a dream to nightmare
The day you left you showed that you don’t care
This was all a facade
I’m left sitting here wondering was this all a nightmare?
Why did you come into my life, why did you leave, why did you ever say you cared?
False hope, false love, a façade was what was there
Yes you turned into my nightmare

Like hiking in the fog.
Only the brightest or burning memory shines through
Some of these memories are just mine, others I’ve shared with you
Some places on my path are beautiful and  stunning
While others feel their placement is uncanny and cunning
When I walk my memory lane, I see growth through the pain
Tears, Love, Finding oneself I did gain
The more path I create, the more is can see what creates a memory lane
As I seek to move forward, I will choose happiness, and not in vain
I promise myself I will seek moments of joy, growth, and security.
For all other factors that do not matter, I will keep in the fog and leave them blurry
So the next time I take a stroll I will see all beauty
To see what has blossomed amist the rain
To see what has grown and what has changed.
Yes, the beautiful path is mine to create
Mine to allow those who will stamp by fate.
For now, I know what to seek.
To make a beautiful memory lane complete

My life is made up of several puzzle pieces
Some play a large part
Some play a small
Some are unique
Some are challenging
But all the pieces paint my picture
And I’m thankful for them all

Forehead to forehead
Nose to nose
Feeling you holding me close
I breath you in
Can’t wait to start an adventure with you again
You kiss my lips
You slide your fingers across my skin
You pull me closer
You whisper in my ear
Right then I let go of all fear
The fear of being right or wrong
The fear of holding on
I just want to be with you
Yes thats all I want to do

I dance around you
I feel the warmth around my skin
I hear a crackle
The embers burning bright within
As the flames grow I’m pulled closer in
I stoke the fire
Filled with the heat of desire
But be careful and aware
Dancing around the flames you may fall in
Don’t stand too close, please beware
The burns leave scars deeper than the skin
You think you can control it
You think you own the moment
But know with one false move
And you may fall in
Never to return again

Start each morning being who you want to be
For each night ends with who you are
