Unsaid

    To everyone in my family
I know that I’m just a big egghead
And if I ever hurt you, I apologize
And I just didn’t want it to go unsaid

Sometimes actions and words can cut
Like a knife, though blood is never bled
And I hope I never caused any pain
And I just didn’t want it to go unsaid

I love you all, though time has passed us
By like water flows through a riverbed
life has separated us and I miss us
And I can’t let it go unsaid

I forgive for the times that I felt I wasn’t
Treated right I put it out of my thick head
I hope you can all do the same and
I just didn’t want it to go unsaid

So please if I’ve ever hardened your heart
Don’t let these words be misread
I truly love all of you and I just couldn’t
Let it go, no I just couldn’t let it go unsaid

Someone I Use To Know

   In the darkness
I’m sitting all alone
The silence is broken
By the tone of my phone

The caller ID reveals your name
I just let it ring
The memories of you began to flow
Once you were my everything

I remember falling in love and holding on
Like taking the bull by the horns
Forgetting that love is fragile as the rose
As the tears flow I feel the pain of thorns

It’s unimaginable to be here now
With a heart that’s broken
As the phone rings again I can see your name
Again but I have no words to be spoken

I remember how seeing your name on my
Phone would make me glow
But you threw it all away and now you’re
Just someone I use to know

Soon There Be Snow

     Spring is just a distant memory
Now that the crispness of Fall has settled in
The wood has been chopped for the fire
To warm the chill of spine and skin

All the preparations have been made
But nothing can truly prepare
The harshness of winter is for nothing
But the Abominable and the Polar bear

Summer has slipped away, its heat long
Forgotten and hidden by clouds of grey
As Winter is knocking on the door
Adding to my dismay

I know that I must accept it because
I know the seasons will change
It would definitely be weird without it
But I would welcome the strange

So I guess there’s just one thing left to
Do and that’s to stock up with Bordeaux
For one thing is for certain
Soon there be Snow

You Can’t Hold Me No More

    Well you took me by surprise
Just one look into your eyes
I was caught in your witches spell
And your diva head began to swell

I thought I’d never get away
As you were desperate that I stay
And I became a prisoner of doubt
As I told myself there was no way out

And I was just like so many that came before
You scratched another notch another score
And I just needed to believe in me
To be able to set myself free

As the years slowly passed me by
Hope was lost with each tear I would cry
And In my darkness I saw a flicker of light
And I heard a whisper telling me to fight

And somehow I was able to survive
Waiting for this day to arrive
I saw an opportunity to slip out the door
And now you can’t hold me no more

When Jesus Comes

   It doesn’t matter where you come from
The richest of Hollywood or from the slums
All that matters is what’s in your heart
And soul when Jesus comes

Your decisions take you on your path
And determine what your life becomes
So please choose wisely so you’re in
The right place when Jesus comes

No one is perfect so don’t be quick to judge
We must control the flame of our tongues
Hate has no place in Heaven and it won’t
Be acceptable when Jesus comes

So I pray that you ask for forgiveness
And let his love flow like the River runs
Give thanks and praise so you’ll be
Prepared when Jesus comes

Let there be no doubt when you hear
The trumpets and the drums
That your heart mind and soul are where
They need to be when Jesus comes

The Day She Said Goodbye

     His darkness fell upon him like an Atomic Bomb his destruction was likewise as well
Needless to say the rest of his days he
Will live his life in an eternal Hell

She was his heartbeat she was his everything
His world revolved around her
He never took it for granted but
Forever together of this he was sure

The day was like any other day but we all
Know things can change in the blink of an eye
The date was nine eleven two thousand one
The time was eight forty six, her time to die

They were both good people and I wonder
What is the purpose for their fate
The answer is there is no reason, it’s just
The Devil and his whisper of hate

The earthly Angels were there in abundance
As well and some received their wings
Two thousand nine hundred and ninety seven people perished and it rips my heartstrings

This is the proof that the battle between good
And evil still rages on and it’s not a lie
We must all remember this day as he will forever remember the day she said goodbye

I Married An Angel

    No I don’t have a mansion on a hill
And no I’m not rolling in dough
I don’t know the meaning of life
But I ask what is there to know

I still work for a living and sometimes
It seems the Devil still deals the cards
But when people stab me in the back
I just remove the chard’s

When sad times hit me
Of course there’s always tears
But you know I’ve got Jesus
And I’ve got friends I’ve had for years

I’ve got my wife and daughter
And my dog Buckeye who love me
Recent trips were to Disney and the
Bahamas and Hawaii

I tell you these things not to brag
That’s just not my style
Just never saw this life for myself
Then she walked down the aisle

I said will you marry me and free
My heart from this horrible tangle
She said yes and kissed me and
I married an Angel
