Once I wished to raise my gaze in fascination
At the thought of dreadful fear
Looked into the face of trying declarations
Bent backwards, ever groaning
With eyes, full of tears

One day I took note of all those birds in my skies
Freely flying high without a care
As I swiftly dried those tears from my eyes
My wings spread forth, taking flight
Along with dreadful fear

A new beginning I wished to rise up and see
Here flickering within my heart
I looked to the hand holding courage’s key
Stood up proud and true
Watching fear depart

Until I can see the bottom of the endless deep
I will not give way to failure
An easy life, I may not always bid to keep
But the daring wind on my wings
I will know in splendor

I Know

Between all I may be to those stars which shine
In the sweetest glimmering glow
Holding your tender heart next to mine
Is by far, the sweetest feeling
I know

The warmest hearts have been laid here at my feet
In the sweetest glimmering glow
Yet my eyes disclose this love I hold so sweet
Revealing that the warmth of you, is all
I know

In beauty that light rises from the stars at night
In the sweetest glimmering glow
Waking up to see those stars in your eyes
Is by far, the sweetest sight
I know

If asked where one can see these stars which shine
In the sweetest glimmering glow
Between all I may be to your heart divine
Is the only answer I can give
Or know

Without Answers

If you can tell me why the sea roars when staring at the moon
I will drink the essence of your different ways
Together we will find where the dish took the spoon
Live with fire in our eyes
All our days

If you can launch a ship that glides into wisdom’s harbor
I will sail along with you until the end of time
Together we will learn the secret of love’s nature
Live a life full of passion
So sublime

However, if you cannot tell me why the sea roars at the moon
Or launch a ship that will glide into wisdom’s harbor
Together our hearts can still learn how to sing in tune
In our own perfect harmony
Without answers

Beneath a Naked Flame

Beneath a naked flame, there lies all the hidden resolution
I heard him softly sing to you my friend
You bowed your head in a silken thread of absolution
While spilling forgetful darkness
From your hands

Are your eyes dim because your dreams are distant
To you I could hear him softly sing
You bowed your head to escape from existence
Then you closed your burning eyes
On everything

Above your line of sight a patient angel is there waiting
He sang to you, although you did not hear
If you will unbow your head, stand still anticipating
Open up your burning eyes
All will be clear

Beneath a naked flame, there lies your own contentment
I know because I felt the burn in his song
But if your silken thread holds onto your resentment
Your eyes will burn in darkness
Your lifelong

Let Me Take You

Let me take you into the rains which stream into my heart
Show you the lightning flashing in my veins
You can listen to the thunder as we stand a world apart
Then I will bring you inside me
To remain

Inside of me you will find the silence of hills and valleys
Places you can wander in peaceful bliss
But you will still see that lightning flashing wildly
Hear crashing thunder in the magic
Of my kiss

You can tell me about the rains that stream into your heart
Show me the rocky mountains in your eyes
Together we will stand watching rain clouds part
As the lightening in our veins
Paints our skies

Take me inside of you so I can climb your mountains
The very thought brings me peaceful bliss
Together we will seek to fill love’s own fountain
With the rain in our hearts'
Streaming kiss

Fate's Prison

I heard that you swim in a sea of glass with no armor
Where you are reborn with each rising sun
At night alone you seek answers
Within fate’s prison
You are one

I can see that you are not afraid of currents swift
Always shifting disguises to continue on
So is fate’s prison a sanctuarial gift
Where you exist as you are
As one alone

I know you wear a shield encrusted with diamonds
Over your own heart’s vast range of feeling
You exist in a prison on your own island
Shifting disguises to hide the scars
Fate is dealing

I too swim in a sea of glass with no armor
Each rising sun I am reborn anew
At night alone I seek answers
From my fate’s prison
I wave to you

Filled With Wonder

Who shall hold us with gladness in our morning sky
Until we no longer fear clouds of thunder
Tell us how we should try
To live each day
In wonder

Will we see our hearts leap into our morning skies
To fearlessly ride those clouds of thunder
Gladness shining from our eyes
Held captive in a sense
Of wonder

If our hearts are stones, will we feel these arms
When they grace our morning skies
Live our lives in fear of harm
With no shining gladness
In our eyes

I await the arms of gladness in my morning skies
I wish to ride those clouds of thunder
To live my life with shining eyes
My soft heart filled
With wonder
