Time

The Sun begins it's daily stoll
As all over clocks do chime
Call to worship, to join, condole
Marking hour and time

____________________________________

All over clocks do chime
Enough to make a long day whole
Marking the hours and time
And leaving a heavy toll
____________________________________

Enough to make a long day whole
Dealing with crime and grime
Leaving behind a heavy toll
Go home and clean off the slime
____________________________________

Dealing with crime and grime
While passing by worshippers, offering to condole
Go home and remove the slime
As the Sun retreats into its hole

Forgiven

I'm not sure how much longer we two can wander
Two hearts, two souls bound halfway the world around
Not yet able or ready to be, if only we could foresee
The bumps in the pathway, the call at the end of the day
Balanced by goodness, purity and light, Knowing in our hearts what's wrong and what's right
These thing we sustain have grown weak, causing pain
Two things can be done to heal two hearts already won
The answers are easy, already written,
Drawn together, spoken, forgiven

Duty

Duty is not the dull word it seems in your mouth
It is a joyful thing, full of patient love and caring
Knowing what is right and making sure that the goal is achieved
Taking care of those who cannot take of themselves
Loving without thought of reward or reciprocation
Thinking of others above yourself
We share a duty to each other
Let us make a joyful duty

Many Sides

You are the best part of me, my finest side by far
I give you all that's left within me
Bound to your heart, I give mine willingly
No room for handwringing, no cause to chide
So gather around and sit a bit, abide
While I find the church, a priest, a key
For you are the better part of me
____________________________________

You are my finest side by far, for you show me the best of me
It blazes like a bright white star
A light so bright and carefree
It makes me floats on wings so feathery
And although it illuminates my many scars
You are my finest side by far

No Baggage

Follow me to the ends of this earth
I guarantee you, things couldn't get worse
This whole world is filled with terror and pain
But my only thought is to see you again
Together we'll open people's eyes with mirth
We'll fill our home with love and birth
And as children and laughter spill down the lane
No longer will the world deign on our little reign

Pawn

I have been your pawn
Your willing slave
Have I done your bidding well enough?
Followed your rules?
Toed the line?
Still you say it's not enough
You have emptied me
Taken the best
Left me nothing
But a broken shell
Perhaps someone else
Will come across me
And fill me
And make me
Whole again

DFGGF

I will never be your better-half
Can't you see it now
The two of us trying to reason
Why wherefore and how
And when was the last time we even laughed
____________________________________
No matter what the season
We seem to beat the odds
Constantly fighting each other
Mistaking ourselves for god's
Losing our cohesion
____________________________________
What once bound us strong
Is now tearing us asunder
What is this important key
Is there a desk it's hid under?
Would trying to find it be wrong
____________________________________
Stars say together we together should be
But reality rips them to shreds
Perhaps our love was just a gaff
For if we cannot get long in our heads, How can our hearts be destined to be? ____________________________________

Roses

Smell of roses drift through the air
I remember the ones you sent before
There won't be any this year
As sad music plays in my ear
It's hard to know that you've gone
That were miles apart tonight
Sitting alone in my car
Feeling lonely, distant, ajar
The words were too hard to say
We needed to work on us
Commitment was asking too much
In step but out of touch

For Good

When you're not here my world despairs
Although you're in my head
Time moves quickly
Then slows again
Without you everything spins
____________________________________

The times when you're here we move in sync
But away you're out of step
We fall together
Then fall apart
It's hard to begin again
____________________________________

This world is hard when we're alone
And harder day by day
You come home
Then leave again
One day you'll be home for good
____________________________________

Charm To Rejoin & Tear Asunder

Bring together what was stretched too far
     Whether by train or plane or car
Give strength and knowledge to get the job done
     The first step is over but the game's just begun
____________________________________

Send knowledge of future, of justice, outcome
     To the one who left tasks empty and undone
Will power is needed and a strong steady friend
      To help them acknowledge that this is the end
____________________________________

Two parties, opposite in goals and in means
     Their lifestyle seems idyllic almost sanguine
It's only a façade, behind a closed door
     Any time together feels like a bore
____________________________________

First, bring to her what she sees in herself
     Power and glory, wisdom and wealth 

Follow the song of the muse that she hears
     No longer chased by that what she fears

____________________________________

Then for him, growing patiently older,
       His request is the one that is the bolder
He must go to the point where they meet
     Follow his heart to the echoing beat

Questions

What's left without surprise?
With nothing new to learn?
Only more compromise?
Will our hearts beginning yearning
For freedom we aren't really pleading.
____________________________________

Will our hearts still burn?
Or slowly start to bleed?
As wheels start to turn,
Where is this situation leading,
Hearts broken or mended?
____________________________________

Will we be be foe or friend?
Is this beginning or end?

Lazy

Simply laying there
Hands running through my hair
Legs entangled
A nice pressure
The sun bestowing it's golden glow
Warm and cosy
The smell of leather and clean sheets
An unmade bed
Nowhere to go or be
Only here
With you and me

Love at First Sigh

Tell me about yourself, babe
Why you hold your chin in your hand Your eyes change at night to dancy
The flights that touch and tingle your fancy
Your heart which melted me at first
A soul so full it made mine burst
____________________________________
First, my love, tell me of you
The way the world needs your laugh
A steady voice coming through the throng
The ability to project your feelings so strong
You're mind blends and balances well with my own
The Temple of your body deserves worship unknown
____________________________________
Let us tell the world of the two of us,
The mission to share your laugh Speaking calmly while eyes are dancing
Many ideas and feelings advancing
We follow the heart despite the mind
While we rebuild my temple, together your soul we'll find
