I am lost
the way is dark
the light bleeds away
cut by pain that you inflict
with your lack of words
and your uncaring silence
I am lost
adrift in a Cimmerian sea
of tears, clinging
to a dissolving raft of hope
which breaks as I sigh.
I am lost
no one to find me
cast out
in tenebrous silence
gouged and set aside.
I am lost
I am lost.

Whirling, whisping, talking, hissing
It whispers to me with harsh, cold lips
It hints with smooth, sharp statements
Long, drawn out tales of romance

It speaks to me, telling me where it has been
Stories of travel, love, and despair
It speaks to me, the wind, but I do not understand
I know to care, so I listen further

Through this cluttered conversation
She tells me where she is and what she wants
Where she has been weathers me
Whipped, waned, and windspent

I've search the world over
To find a love like yours
I've seen the beautiful faces
But no other woman's smile
Reflects what I've found in you
Your sensual presence
Commands my immediate attention
I'm still star-struck
When I say your name
I can't put a finger on it
The mystery of why I love you
All I know is the flavor
Is always tasteful and pure
I could say this or I could say that
The proof is in the drink

Sitting here thinking of you and what could be
a million thoughts zoom inside of my mind
in the darkness sipping on green tea

Wishing and hoping i could bring meaning to your life
and there is only the two of us
hoping that this would be over what i call strife

So, sitting here alone enjoying the spring breeze
for i cant get you out of my head
on the porch sipping on green tea

The very thought of lovers walking,
holding hands, and making love in the grass
in my dreams wishing it was us

Together one day it may be you and me
sitting in this very spot
sipping on green tea.

Taking a break from this so-call life of transition
in a few months time I saw horror as I reflected
back to earlier times of my younger years

Pain and happiness does not blend so well
neither does emptiness and careless bliss
displacement and discouragement comes hand in hand

To top things off I was in the middle of all this chaos
not knowing where to go or not knowing what to do
then till came a friend out of the darkness

Helping me to cast off the demons to show a brighter light
oh where have the good times gone?
why do we live such miserable lives?

Thinking of the future and how much better it will become
wishing and hoping that it all comes true
then once and for all I can breathe again

To be finally out of this transitional life
