The rolling hills of silent loneliness,
The pure white light of godliness.
The whispering stream of love to be,
The endless fields of joy and glee.
The night sky filled with lulling dreams,
The summer day is not all it seems.

The candle light of relaxation,
The Northern star that gives direction.
The winds of change whirl and blow,
The candles light a dimming glow.
The wind’s a gust the light goes out,
The heart of fear too scared to shout.

Alone in the dark I thought I would stay,
The heart the wind the summer’s day.
The tickle of a tear caresses my cheek,
I can no longer hear my inner voices speak.
But in the hills an echo of a whisper,
Why should I remain so bitter.

As time goes on so will I,
To live and learn and even cry.
With faith by my side I will take the leap,
I will no longer be the mindless sheep.

I see your eyes so dull and plain,
I feel your heart in so much pain.
They knocked you down and hurt you bad,
To see you this way it makes me sad.
The ruthless anger and soul untrusting,
Friendship denied and relationship rusting.

The distance between the roads walked alone,
Cold and bitter apart you have grown.
The anger devours all the good deep inside,
The chasm you face grows deep as is wide.
The walls that you build protect well indeed,
But the anger still grows and thrives, it’s a ****.

You try to move on but to hatred you're chained,
To continue like this a lot more is lost than will ever be gained.
The love of a friend you might push away,
The cool breeze on a warm summer’s day.

The hate scared you deep and the darkness is vast,
But you need to move on and not dwell on the past.
Your path I will share and your hand I will take,
So from my heart to yours a pledge I will make.
To empower and hold to help and to guide,
A friend you have here right by your side.

As daylight kisses the morning dew,
I lie in bed and think of you.
The things you said they made me smile,
While in my heart I cried a while.
Your lips so soft and eyes so deep,
The things we had we could not keep.

Like all in life it took me time,
To come to terms that you were not mine.
The evening breeze now filled the night,
As I tried to let go with all of my might.
Where you once were now empty space,
As mixed emotions danced across my face.

That night I sat alone and cold,
Wishing for your tender hold,
A broken heart only hours old.

The stars came out a moon graced sky,
Again I ask the question why.
The ebb and flow of passers-by,
Life and death the live to die.
The way we move to satisfy the need,
To grow a tree you must plant the seed.

Like hand to glove and foot to shoe,
That's how I felt about me and you.
But now as I lay and think it through,
I realized that you faked this too.
To serve your need is the game you played,
And now I'm glad that you had strayed.

With Tarnished heart and clouded soul,
Anger the fuel to achieve my goal.
Like hunting cat I stalk my prey,
Watch them weaken day by day.

Senses tuned the time has come,
Now don't you go do something dumb.
My sight is clear, vision blurred,
My mind at war split in two like whey and curd.

I falter back stall my advance,
The time has passed I missed my chance.
Why did you wait a fool’s errand I gave,
To Anger now I am his slave.

I toile in the shadow of how it used to be,
Doing his ***** work for the eternal world to see.
He holds the reins and pushes on,
I cannot seem to find - the good is gone.

I sleep each night with a tear in my eye,
In the back of my head I wish I could just die.
I want it to change I really wish it would,
I want it to change if I try I'm sure I could?

I can't break his grip he holds me so tight,
I know I have tried with all of my might.
He puts me in a corner for the world to shun,
For all of the bad that he has done.

A part of me as I am of him,
The future for us looks rather grim.
I need to stand up for what I believe,
But always it seems he has an ace up his sleeve.

Anger brings about my end,
The way I live I will defend.
To do and say the things I feel,
That's the way, my life is real.

They do not listen and hear even less,
The way they work it seems a mess.
They rush and hurry and take no time,
To sit and hear the view that's mine.

I lay in waiting, patience in hand,
Me, Myself alone I stand.
To speak my mind will hurt and ****,
Speak my mind in time I will.

But Still I wait with baited breath,
To hold my own for life or death.
My Time will come to speak my mind,
And till that point a way I will find.

I've tried my best to let it go,
Perhaps I've not tried hard enough.
But still I feel so empty and hollow,
It all seems to be getting quite tough.
One step forward and two steps back,
Just one thing I can not seem to hack.

I hear your name and my worlds collide,
I don't know how and I don't know why.
My love for you I have never denied,
But I've always hid it I'm still so shy.
I had a chance that came and went,
Just like a love letter that was never sent.

A void so black and unfulfilled,
A broken heart that's left to bleed.
A once proud soul just hurt not killed,
A sudden stop with no warning to heed.
An inescapable chasm cut to the bone,
And now I'm left to clean-up alone.

I know I'll get through what perils ahead,
And speak the words left so long unsaid.
A life time of pain will relinquish its hold,
Instead of vacant the sign will read "SOLD".
A broken dream will mend in time,
But the sentence so far is unbefitting the crime.

What if I told you that his days had been numbered?
What if I told you his hour was near?
Would you believe or would it fade on a whim?
Or would you just think I am being dim?

Robbed of my vision I stumble and blundered,
A desperate reach but still nothing I hear.
It was Death I'd heard whisper - a heralding bell,
But not even Death could have stopped the day that I fell.

I see that you've changed and I know she loves you,
But believe when I say she'd never do what I'd do for you.
I'd never draw you a line or tell you enough,
I'd hold you up and push you through if times got tough.
I'd turn straw to gold if that's what would make you smile,
I'd lay it all down and care only for you all the while.
I'd do all I could to protect you from strife,
And when that seemed like enough I'll also give up my life.
I see that you've changed and I know that she loves you,
But now believe when I say she'd never do what I'd do for you.

I despise that she's on your hand and in your heart,
And that I never got to play my part.
But that fateful day I held my tongue and chose silence,
And prayed every day since for providence.

I loathe that I still hold you so high,
Devine to my mind still making me cry.
I don't think I will ever let go not on my own,
I don't think I want to let go...
