I tried to write a poem
explaining how I feel
Something very special,
emotions oh so real
~
Verses penned with love,
open hearts to sing
Dragonflies and moonbeams
and every little thing
~
But as I sit here writing,
something is amiss
I find the words I’m looking for,
it seems they don’t exist
~
So how then can I tell you
just what you mean to me
How you make me smile
and set my spirit free
~
You ignore my every fault
to only see the good
Stand by me when I am down,
when not another would
~
Always sending friendly words
to brighten up my day
Nothing ever is too much,
I don’t know how to say
~
That I adore your friendship,
I love that you are near
Without you I would fade away,
I want to make it clear
~
You are very special Sye
I hope these words have shown
If not then I’ll keep looking
or invent some of my own
~

When you find my heart does break
And sadness crawls my every word
So much more than I can take
Of endless streams the mind has heard
~
Never are you very far
To offer thoughts, to dry my eyes
Reminding me just who we are
So comforting within your sighs
~
And soon the sun begins to shine
Along this path of winding flow
Where sparrows sing their songs so fine
In melodies I used to know
~
A cooling breeze does touch my soul
As flowers bloom the garden sweet
Wispy clouds on skies now roll
While feathers gather at my feet
~
This is now because of you
The friendship that your heart does share
The words of happiness so true
I thank the heavens you are there
~

~

The sun of morning finds your face
a’ glowing sheen on tear swept eyes
Still lost in darkness sad to trace
beneath these azure painted skies
~
To walk alone in sorrow’s fields
with merely but a shadow’s play
This love from deep within now yields,
to hold you as you make your way
~
A simple touch, a soft caress,
upon your cheek in silent feel
Whispered words of true confess
of happiness to soon reveal  
~
Feel my arms now hold you near,
falling close around your heart
Gently to reverse your fear
and thunderclouds which now depart
~
To lift a mockingbird this day,
so she may spread her wings afar
In wondrous full of life display,
enough to touch the furthest star
~
Now standing ‘fore this weathered weave,
to break the chains of sad refrain
So that your weary eyes may see,
you’ll never walk alone again

Oh mother and father
remember when I was a little boy
so lost in my imagination as I played with toys
Oh those were the days
those were the days

I'm driving my car and I'm thinking of you
I roll my window down and look up at the moon
Remember the days when we were young
playing in the sprinklers just for fun

(Chorus)
Oh those were the days
Days when life was easy and beautiful

Talking to myself like a mad man what do I do
to help me set the voices free inside of me
do you hear the voices too

I'm driving without a destination
without a destiny
I'm sliding the dial on the radio station
On the radio station
Maybe I will find a song I like
one that makes me see the light

(chorus here)

We are angels falling to the ground we land
and we live our life in the imagination
Everybody will dance and sing
we'll hold each other in celebration
We will always be so true and free
we're children in a dream

Oh I don't know where I've been going
life is like a boat slowly rowing away
I know I'm not alone so hold my hand and sing along

(chorus here)

Mother and father
do you remember when I was a little boy

We are young we are happy all the girls and boys

I'm driving my car and I'm thinking of you
I roll my window down and look up at the moon
