Smile, oh Smile!
Smile once more
Let the smile coming rolling like waves to the shore

Smile, oh Smile!
Smile with your eyes
As deep as the oceans and blue as the skies

Smile, oh Smile!
Just one more will do
Like a breath while you're drowning or a wish that's come true

And if you can't smile
Then finally I'll know
I won't ask again...I'll turn and I'll go

But oh for a smile
The sweetest I've known
Send me one more, like the kisses you've blown

As your lips widen
Your eyes do their part
You glow as if heaven was born from your heart

The envy of angels
She shines with the stars
And stands by the moon, despite all his scars

If life is a sickness
Her smile's the cure
Where the blossoming meadow meets cloudless azure

Where answers are simple
And love is secure
Peaceful and tranquil...precious and pure

Smile, oh Smile!
Mere memories are cruel
Reminders of folly, to punish the fool

At last I've found my voice he cried!

All along it was inside!

And on the day you find yours too!

Don't keep it locked inside of you!

We're all searching for forever
But it isn't ours to give
All we can promise is a part
Of these tiny lives we live

What we must remember
But can't seem to understand
Is that forever's made of tiny parts
Like the beach is made of sand

So while you're searching for forever
To these words take heed
Oftentimes the tiny parts
Are all we really need

Sometimes we forget who we are momentarily
Sometimes we forget for a lifetime
Sometimes we close our eyes at night and hope that it's the last time

Chances are the Sun will rise
Sparkling like a white wine
Somewhere in the dark of night, you're lonley fingers found mine

Sometimes we break each others hearts
Sometimes we are the lifeline
Sometimes I think we built our love right above the fault line

Sometimes one of us will slip
Eventually we'll realign
Impossible to pull away, break apart, unentwine

Sometimes we really aren't okay
Even though we say we're fine
Sometimes the pain behind the smile, is the only warning sign

Sometimes we wish for yesterday
But to the present we're confined
Slipping into disarray, watching as we're left behind

I look out from this little world
with all it's dancers dancing

Mighty trees tickle the sky
The birds in them romancing

If we but stop and listen
we'll hear the music playing

Stop a while and close your eyes
exhale the troubles weighing

Down around your shoulders
Thoughts that cloud your heart

We're only here but for a while
Before we drift apart

Like clouds across the silver moon
we're here and gone far too soon

Then pass into the inky night
Still around, yet out of sight

Some of our clouds stretch for miles
Others stacked in fragile piles

Some full and dark and hanging low
Filled with tears they can't let go

Some so wispy and so light
Their presence a mere oversight

Some whose wrath begets a name
Who form a mighty hurricane

Some who rumble in the night
Hurling lightening left and right

Some dark and brooding, filled with snow
Dumping ice on all below

Some that twist right to the ground
Violently they spin around

Some collide, some drift away
Some prefer night, some prefer day

So let us stop and gaze up high
To find ourselves within the sky
Just looking out the window, yearning to be free

So until I smile
Stay for a while
Hold me as I crumble
Into a pile

I don't need much
But I need you
And when you smile
I know it's true

Scary things
May happen too
But I fly higher
When I'm with you

How do I know if it's still love, or a darker sort of need?
As each wish that we send above, we do so out of greed.

I could dream of you forever, and I probably will indeed.
Love chained our hearts together, and I'm not asking to be freed.

My mistakes haunt me everyday, whilst smiling eyes mislead.
In disbelieving disarray, surviving love's stampede.

I write these words I cannot say, not knowing where they'll lead.
But I'll still write them anyway, these words you'll never read.

There you are...
Perched on the edge of my ocean.

Skipping stars across the horizon...
New galaxies bursting to life before my eyes.

And what is your name?
Ha!
What does it matter?

I've fallen in love with the sound of every word you've spoken.

I can still hear you laughing as we danced barefoot under the universe.

I may not be your saving grace,
But darling you'll discover...

I'll take a chance and break my heart,
Cause broken hearts recover...

An ode to darkness eschewing light,
Why not?
Her beauty,
it transcends sight!

Radiance reflected.
Incandescent revelry.
Each heartbeat supernova we can feel but never see.

As faithful as true love appears,
her touch incurs your deepest fears.

A broken-hearted serenade...
of choices better left unmade...

Memories burn as touches fade.
Thus, my heart, I barricade.

Here! Love, not armies would invade!
