Lonely Ones

October 15th, 2006

We are the Lonely Ones
Alone with one heart
Moving forward, carrying on
Even though we fall apart

Deep seeded hurt inside
Yet our mettle undeniable
Never quite complete
Yet a friend so reliable

A people not so rare
Always at your side
You rely on us for comfort
For the changing of the tide

Yet this is all it is
For further we cannot go
To live deeper in your life
Just cannot be so

So a friend we remain
To keep at your side
In the shadow of meaning
Forever destined to hide.

Something more?
A romance made?
Never last
Doomed to fade

For shadows of people
This we be
The unknown lovers
You cannot see.

Butterfly Dreams

July 12th, 2006

Flowers open bright and bold
Dreams and visions flicker, fade
Kiss me now venom sweet
And call me bitter, sour, old

Alone with the wind
Thoughts to scatter across the city
A million faces concealed from view
How far can a tree bend?

Like coffee without cream
Black like darkness without hope for light
A glimmer of peace from ages past
A dream of a dream

Reaching high for her hand
Perched upon that pedestal
Precariously sketched on pages in my mind
Take me now to distant land

So the butterfly dreams
To fly so far away
Will it find home here
Among the bitter things?
