She was magical to me even way back then They said the way I felt about her was a sin But that wasn't the only thing that kept us apart We had it all working against us from the start The parents, the church, the social setting all had their say about what who was getting they just wanted to control everything, have their say They didn't really give a dam about us anyway So we saw our chance, we made our break we had nothing to loose we had nothing to take We left that sanctimonious religious prison behind We never looked back, never missed that design Anyplace on the road we could have lived better but we went for the city she led and I let her With only ourselves to care for each other We never became a father and mother we each knew the other of us better than ourselves we lived out our lives in love and respect to our depths when our journey ended, so did the purpose of our existence

Old School Love
It's a secret No one else feels it,  none other than I know you are a goddess in my eyes I know I'm not worthy of your attention yet I feel it's my life's purpose to mention That life has no meaning if you pass me by not knowing flower roots drink when clouds cry without your sunlight to shine open their petal arms to absorb for the night your life giving charms It took heart-crushing time for me to discover the light of your love shines for another So then how could I expect you to know my heart still tags along wherever you go So I must keep the secret, outside the unrequited cycle of how my heart is longing only for you my Cybele .

Cybele
Baby you're the definition of the cause of the blues You just empty out any heart you choose You got no sense of shame or remorse for the destruction left in the wake of your course You're so beautiful and it's obvious you know it but every chance you get to be loved, you just blow it you pretend sincerity religiously by sayin' you love God so much When you're done with the fools that fall for you What's left unbroken of them is not much You act like you've been heartbroken, and say you don't want to be hurt again. Then you sink the hook in the new poor fool just when you think They're All In. There is no truer thing that can be said about you When she looks that good she's to good to be true

Too Good To Be True
Socially Distant Love Why did I ascend into love so verboten and forsaken Just when it seems our lives could be so easily taken One embrace in your warm arms has sent my world askew seeds of pure intention in my fertile imagination grew Though there's no possible way you have of knowing That way down deep my heart was so secretly growing Such compelling feelings my whole being is enchanted From a seed of love you with such carelessness planted My burgeoning heart's feelings are emptying out vacillating in waves between pure fear and doubt as my own overwhelmingly excited heart's mind with your heart and mine, our true feelings align This love's too strong to keep stringing along with only vague promises of love in my song Is it too much to ask and or is it all way too soon is unrequited love driving me crazy as a loon Oh God in which belief deeply I have suppressed please reemerge now and hear my fervent request I'm praying for both our hearts to be receptive to intentions between us let not become deceptive The reaper swings his merciless scythe at one and all Driving all so far apart so we cannot touch, only call Let us resist this fatal attraction and far apart we stay When the virus dies off we'll all come out again to play With reckless abandon let's then love's thrill pursue Your heart seeking mine and as mine lusts after you As we satisfy all the silly rules of society's game United in love even though we may not be in name For what does a future not centered around you hold but a sense of lost moments memories might have told might as well never have lived with our love entwined when one and not both together dwell in heaven divine If one should ascend alone and the other must stay In a life of living in hell day after heartbreaking day incarnate souls living out of sync with each other By chance encountering solace as illicit lovers Every day left behind with no real sense of purpose Each passing day becoming like another one of surplus Until a final day comes to a body grown so untenable It can not play host to an immortal soul so invincible Since each soul has forgotten that from one came all Bonds of love are formed by actions large and small Each personality defines themselves as quite unique Times toll on each is felt as an unforgiving critique In some dimension, all consciousness dwells in harmony When we're there all formless without a way to feel love Without senses to feed an ego, we can't hear life's polyphony all exist in a timeless dimension far away and high above

" Dreammembering" Awash in the 8th sea of prelimerence as endless as the ocean Dreammembering a time of life defined by love's devotion creating moments that feel as real as now yet out of reach We held hands then and walked upon a perfect golden beach Golden light on the curve of cheek and your mane's dark chocolate strands We redefined "ourself" with loving eyes and touching hands Thoughts between our heart-minds making promises unspoken All our times of life on earth we hoped to share as one unbroken Reality cleaves our dream's edge as consciousness reawakens a sense of dread, the pang of loss, as love's left there forsaken prelimerence merged low on Wildcat beach by high tide it's enthralled We leave it weep-singing love's parting song like Alamere falls
