Time is the lingering of the past which the present tries to shield from the future. The future is the growth we take from the lessons time has taught us.  Each is unique as the individual barer. Time grants closure and renews hope.

you take my hand this day.  we walk side by side.  you tell me how much you love me and I begin to cry.  you whisper in my ear,  tell me everything's okay.

you hold me close,  never let me go.  your the stars within the sky.  the blue within the sea.  almost make believe.

you take away the empty place that holds my heart so cold. you warm my soul and you help me breathe. you've taught me that I must realize there is so much more to see.

you've given me strength,  you've shown me the light and you've finally found a way to  make me believe...

I am loved.
I am loved

Your eyes seem to flare, your words rip through my skin.
My body trembling, my heart racing.
will there ever be an end?
Will I ever be enough?
Do you have to be so tough?

I'm in the corner, affraid, it's dark.
Your words slice through me.
If only looks could ****...

Taking my life, like it would make a difference.
Leaving you, you would never learn.
A gentle touch, a warm embrace.
These are things I yearn.
Things you could never understand.

Feeling alone, bared a child, scorned, a one night stand?
But yet you're here. I see you sitting there.
Cold distant, a wrongful demand?
To want you to embrace me, to love me, to understand.

An hourglass, waiting for the sands to settle.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to mettle.
I look at you, I see rage, blackness, cold.

I never will be enough. Who was I to think it such.

Tattered, torn, and affraid.
My heart today...
But any way...
Nothing matters.

There's a fire that's burning
Our skin sizzles from the heat
Can't you feel the flames
The loss of air
You can't breathe

You started this mess with your words
A lit match dropped into our lives
And there you are
Sitting pretty in your corner
The lies and the deceit
The mesmerizing orchestra that plays to your beat

You don't feel the pain
The struggles you left behind
You roll it off your shoulders
And pretend the world doesn't exist

The embers from our lives
Swept up around your feet
The ashes are falling
The smoke makes it hard to see

It's unbearable
The loss
The emptiness
The confusion that you wreak

And although the fire may have consumed you
The wind embraced a spark
The oxygen ignited
And gave birth within the dark

Unannounced to you
That ember grew and grew
Shielded and numb
The walls put in place

A survivor of the fire
With a mask upon her face

It's those eyes,  your lips.
The bridge of your nose.
The flow of your check as my fingers caress and slide.
It's the way you breathe.
the rise and fall of your chest.
The rythem of the beat.
it's the sigh from your lips
as I caress your side.
It's the stride in your step.
The pride in the wake of your emotion.
it's the roll of your eyes as my fingers find your inner thighs.
No more need to hide.
This roller coasters ****** hits down deep.
just breathe.

Some where in the middle of chaos is a river that shows us moments of clarity.
A weakness for passion.
A second of pure hope.
A mirage of love.

Don't get caught in the under tow,
A current that barely blinks into your life.
Stand fast.
Stand strong.
Hold your ground.

Beyond that miniscule moment
that you apparently believe is all or nothing,
awakes an infinite river that tames the chaos
and soothes your soul.

As the river guides you to new paths yet unseen. let it's journey embrace you
so that your spirit may finally sing.

The ice covered the trees and my mind began to wander.
Treading deep within my soul.
The endless flakes of winter, so fast they melt away.

Like the seconds of an embrace, suddenly strayed away.
Encompassed within the past, fraudulent in the present.
Dangerous grounds we travel, paths yet left unseen.

But melting ice turned rain.
Summers come again.

The new birth of nature, a rare beauty in it all.
Hope turns new face, and love blooms once more.

Hidden mysteries of the world, only faith galore

When the shadow of doubt has a hold on you, just look to the sky and grasp the wind. hold on tight and Open your eyes. search deep within, let the moon light up your soul and push the shadows aside. Let your spirit soar and fill your mind with ease. why can't you see the only shadows dancing tonight are from you and me. There is no doubt. No fear around the corner. No second guessing. Not even a bridge to far. No clouds in the sky. No crowd of people, it's just you and me. When you feel like the world is smothering  you about, like there's no where to run and your feet can't touch the ground. Hold out your hand and we will dance through the night. Hold on to my love. We can make this right. Why can't you see the shadows are from you and me.
