The beach smells of tranquillity and salty sea air The rhythm of the waves gently caresses my skin The horizon seems elusive, a dream always chased Yet night foreshadows traumas waiting to be let in Oh where do I begin? *I love you I don't wanna be scared of you I'm waiting in the shoreline Please don't run away this time* I'm scared of silent reflections, solemn and reclusive I float futher from myself with each passing day I have a note addressed to myself taped to a mirror I'm scared of reading it aloud and being lead astray And I have to accept that it's okay *"I love you I don't wanna be scared of you I'm waiting in the shoreline Please don't run away this time"* Seashells coated in sand tickle the edge of my ear The fog carried on the wind sends chills deep inside The sun will always be there to break the duskiness Daunting across the sky and waking up the tide And the breeze slowly sighed Please don't run away,        don't run away from me Please don't run away,          don't run away from help Please don't run away,              don't run away from the sea Please don't run away,                 don't run away from yourself Angel wings take me further than I've ever gone before

Note to Self
It is to that place In song That I retreat To wait for you. My idle life Is halfway spent in the Apple Orchard; Its in that place, That I lye alone. And Its in that place I hide from love. Its in that place That I'll awaken from, And  never- I'll never never; truly leave.

Apple Orchard
I drove past your shore house today It's not at all how I remember it Instead of a well-kept, bright exterior Paint was chipping Windows were cracked Sand had blown up on the porch I peeked in the windows But there was little to see In the shadows Other than broken promises And half-assed repair jobs That hadn't fooled anyone in years
