A body floating in water
drifting out to sea
you came my way
unexpectedly

I could feel the ripples
climbing against my skin
I'm also not sure
where this all really began.

Not sure if I was drowning,
not so sure where I belonged
but when I hit my head
that's when you came along.

I could only look forward
and it was so hard to see
but, when I looked above
there was an angel smiling at me.

I tried to reach for her,
I tried to speak
But, my breath was taken
or so it seemed.

I could feel a pounding in my chest
not just once, but more
then she put her lips to mine,
I was confused for sure.

I coughed up water
then I looked in her eyes
I couldn't believe it
"you just saved my life!"

An angel was there that day
but not one with wings,
instead it was my angel
and now we share two rings.

The scars I have don't show that I'm  brave,
But instead
I did what was needed to survive
And move on

We're older now
and things have changed
although those feelings
shall always remain
I feel most people could relate

Smile for today
So they remember you tomorrow

In the minds of us all
We share the maze of shadow walls*

Thinking you know who you are,
but slowly learning from a far,
The past will show up once in awhile.
The present seems like you're on trial.

The *Man in Black
holds you Dear,
but the ones you lost
show only fear.
Afraid of you?

No.. "You're not there."

The walls move
will you continue to go further?
The doors only open
when things fall into order.

The memories came back
and you went insane,
but would do it over again
just too relieve there pain?

You fall now
in a drastic motion,
where the Man in Black
felt all of your emotions.

You have a second chance now
too see them once more,
and all you have to do
is just open up the right doors.

So follow the maze
just one more time...
To finally let go
of that once horrible crime.

It won't be easy,
but you're not alone,
For The Man in Black
shall be the one to take you home
This is about a story I wrote

Is there anything else to blame
when you finally look at yourself?

Breath a long as I
Until we all Die

Never let go
In spit of fear
There will always be time,
Time for those tears.

Life is the Game,
sadly we all play.
Some of us will quit,
leaving the rest with little to say.

The fears we have
are the ones we need to let go
because, we'll all go together
**and never truly Die alone.
Realize that we're all connect
