Power

Fire warm me
Air surround me
Water nourish me
Earth balance me

I breath into tinder
Sparks fly into the air
Warmth flows all around me
Power, raw and laid bare

Fire warm me
Air surround me
Water nourish me
Earth balance me

Drafts meander and glide
Bringing storms from the west
The mist begins to form
The storm starts to crest

Fire warm me
Air surround me
Water nourish me
Earth balance me

The rain falls gently
New formed fire hissing
A cold comfort now
Reminding of all that's missing

Fire warm me
Air surround me
Water nourish me
Earth balance me

Behind stout built walls
Laid of earth and stone
Bring the fire inside
Make the house a home

Fire warm me
Air surround me
Water nourish me
Earth balance me

Elements contained
Outside brought within
The power is in ourselves
That is where we begin

Fire warm me
Air surround me
Water nourish me
Earth balance me

Space

You fit so neatly behind me
Like the missing piece of a puzzle
Cozy corners
We share a space never meant for two
Wrapped in a haze of blue and gold
As the world lays silent and waiting
The sun touches the horizon
I am alone
This space has grown
Now meant to hold two
I feel small
Waiting for you
To return

Haunted Dreams

My cheek with hand you pressed
As rain poured slowly down
Others saftey you did stress
I quieted you with a sound

You realized what came next
My cheek still in your hand
I told you truthfully yes
No, I could not stand

Together we cried in stress
And kissed one final time
My cheek with hand you pressed
As if a fatal sign

Then while I breathed in pain
The last sign of distress
You held me to the last
While my cheek with hand you pressed

Barriers

Colors shared back and forth
Send love along the ancient line
Filling hearts with joy and mirth
Beating in Rhythm and Rhyme
Between us now are left no walls
Removed are barriers too
Free to hear beloved calls
The answer always rings true

Darkness, Stillness, Silence

Two entities
Dwell within this room
You, motion, sound
Like a flower in bloom
Then there is also here
Darkness, stillness, silence
And these you shall not fear
Feel yourself dwelling
Within the darkness, stillness, silence
There you are at peace
If you are willing
Like a babe within the womb
Carefree, full of life, rejoicing
You dwell within the darkness, stillness, silence
Like bluebirds dwell in June
Feel yourself slipping
Away from pain and fear
You are happy again
No more silence tears
Life is nowhere near you
And all you know is gone
What's left is all that's in your soul
For that is what belongs

The World

Through your eyes I see your world…

I watch the people passing by,
                       I see reflected lights.
I see them stop and stare.
                       I watch your mind achieve new heights.

Through your heart I know the world.

                       Your patience and eagarness marks your soul.
You are calm, showed me how to care.
                       Your love makes it easier to find my own.
If all the world were you, no one would fear how I fear losing you.

With Eyes, and Hearts, and Hands we go through this world together.

Love Remains

Ties that bind
Can not be unwound
Blood we share
Shall not be impaired
Words we say
Are not in our head
Places we go
Show love we spent
Things we do
Or places we hid
Love remains

Make It Count

Calendars are ubiquitous
Making time tick at us
The counting of hours
Both pleasant and sour
Reminding us all
Of deadlines that call
Timing could be perfect
Or things could be wrecked
Depending on your planning
There is only one question remaining
Is it time?
Or not?

Rumours

You say, We've got nothing in common
No common ground to stand on,
And we're falling apart
Every time you take me out boy
We see another girl whose held your hand
And she acts like she doesn't care with me
And I know, I know they've all been talking about me
I can hear them whisper
And it makes me think there must be something wrong with me
' Cause anywhere you go, I'll follow you down
Anyplace but those I know by heart
Anywhere you go, I'll follow you down
I'll follow you down, but not that far
