Trapped
Once again
Trapped
In cupids rift

For every breath
You breathe
My heart beats
An orchestral muse

Just one
Silent glance
Causes seismic quakes
Across my soul

A place with elves
dwarves, hobbits and men
A place with tales
We hear again and again

A place with adventure
That will never die
A place to laugh
And a place to cry

A place with songs
Of ancient days
Sung by elves
Merry and gay

A place where you hear
The hobbits laughter
Where they live
Happily ever after

Where mountains are filled
With silver and gold
Where the dwarves mine
Mighty and bold

A place with men
In cities of stone
And their great king
Sits on a beautiful throne

A place with lore
To others unknown
A place that I love
A place that's my own

There I live
And there will I die
In middle earth
My heart will lie

Well here we are with an odd little start
Just feeling free flowing from part to part
Don't you just love these moments in time
When the idea of fate just slips from mind

Like all existence fades into one
When all knots and ties just become undone
With sun warmth on face at times of night
Even the darkest of shadows see this light

When your weightless gliding on through space
Even though gravity holds you right in place
Moments stand still but gone in instants
That moment of harmony within existence

she lifts me up
when i am down

she holds me tight
when she's around

she calms me down
when i am shaking

she's solid ground
when my world is quaking

she is the rope
when i'm on the ledge

she is the hope
when there's nothing left

she is the light
that shadows my path

she is the sound
when it is i laugh

she is the song
that plays in my head

she is the all
when there's nothing left

she is the time
that i can not waste

and she is mine
till the end of days

When ones soul can hold their heart
Warmth and compassion flows like art
Casting away all pain and sorrow
Able to stride through the misty shadow

Eyes now cleared of all stains
Light uncovers shaded plains
Existence floats right on through
Close in step you do too

A crescent flashed
for but an instant
Impenetrable barricades smashed
as if non-existent

Silent lights flicker
as the butterflies rise
Crimson rushes ever quicker
Unchained, set upon the skies
Shannon Jeffery Apr 2015
Rolling tides of thunder
Howl across our shattered world
Scattering hopes and dreams
Of lost, withered souls
