It's the same old game
Were we seem to run around in circles
You start just fine
And run the race strong; confident
But your strength weakens
And confidence fades...
So we fall behind...again
Our paths diverge so far apart
The fear sets in of losing the other
So we begin the race again
And already, you are slowing down...

My sweet Lady Sea, how she calls to me (a)
The Hurricane’s wind batters my white sails (b)
My heart locked away with her golden key (a)
Battered and broken by wind my will fails (b)
Through forbidden seas, I am lost adrift (c)
Carried by the currant of a love; shared (d)
Heart of mine, torn asunder with a rift (c)
I leave it open, all thoughts of mine bared (d)
As I lay aboard my raft, I now know (e)
That in the darkness of my heart I thrive (f)
To see the sunset in the west aglow (e)
My sweet and gracious Sea, I will survive (f)
The captain’s heart forever raging mad (g)
With the thought of she so ******* clad (g)

Love does not exist
For love has been
The death of me

I ripped out my heart
And in your hand
It did bleed

Love is only a lie,
Of a hope
Forever out of reach

The darkness, encompassing
Is darkest before the dawn
Resisting light of change
Lost within the embrace of routine
That has been nothing more
Than ball and chain
Sinking and sinking
Beneath the ebbing wave
Into a world of silence
In the glow of an eerie light
A world so different from our own
With a color all its own
Shrouded in hazey grays and deeper blues
Deeper and deeper where only black remains
Below the surface
Lost, in darkness awaiting its dawn
A dawn forever in its coming
But a sun must rise
And banish the encompassing darkness,
Surrounding me
Michelle Jordan Apr 2012
Just let me be, a faded memory
Forever lost in the time frame of a forgotten thought
Like writing etched upon the sand
Of a mind and heart that changes with the tides
That pull and pull
Between you and I

Your heart sings to a melody
That constantly changes key
And my heart and mind, just can't catch up
Our chords once aligned in harmony
Now shrouded
In eerie dissonance
Michelle Jordan Apr 2012
Lost in the darkness of my night
I have long since lost sight
Of that warm and distant light
That some call love.
With broken heart and broken limbs
I'll be stranded in the cold;
Cold dark and freeze
Let the memory of my face be lost amongst a whispering breeze
For I am nothing but dust.

In the dark
Beneath the shadows of my own heart
I'll hide behind myself.

Under the dark new moon
The princess waits within her tower
But, no one is coming.

The princess nothing more
Than an unruly, best forgotten
Maid.

The incomplete fairytale
Just waiting for its happy ending
An ending never coming.

Locked away in the tower; tall
She'll hide away, within the darkness of hopelessness
Residing in her heart.

No prince will ever be in sight
So blinded is she
With her own tears.
