Untitled #7723

 

You are the voice inside my head.

A silent counterpart on my journey 

Keeping me company where I tread 

Dispelling all my fears and worries

 

Tell me not of tragic woes. 

I want to share your joys 

Speak to me of highs, not lows 

We'll rise above the maddening noise. 

The future comes on unflighted wing.

No faster than today, 

Let us live, our hearts will sing 

And greet the coming day.

Lay Down Your Head(Rondine)

Close your eyes, lay down your head
Still your soul and slow the heart beating, throbbing inside your chest Lounging across my inviting bed
I give you leave to completely spread
Your essence, body, burden, and godhead,
Here, now, when will you be able to rest?
What dreams will come?

____________________________________

Lay down your weary head,
The future shows what's coming is best
Will I be made to follow like the rest?
But if you place your arms in mine, we'll place our heads together,
For in such sleep, what dreams do come
____________________________________

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

Imagination

You are in my head,
But you are not real
Watching everything I do,
What I think and touch and feel

Curling up next to me
A ghostly figure in the night
Arms wrapped around me
Holding me tight

Phantom hands holding fast
My head bowed low
Tears flowing freely
Knowing what I know

You share in my pain
Helping me to heal
But you are only in my head
I wish that you were real

Le Petite

That stubborn curl wrapped 'round my fingers
As you place your head in my hands
The scent of your soap always lingers

The night is quiet and eerie
A soldier awaiting commands
I hear your heart beating clearly

The pace gains a beat, then a breath
I feel like I'm frequently falling
Caught between life and death

Stars burst forth in front of my eyes
Your name, I'm steadily calling
As from the dead, I rise

Love means saying no

Turning away

So the tears don’t show

Walking away

With your head held high

Heart breaking

Knowing it’s for the best

Not for you

But for your beloved

For without you

They will soar to new heights

With you

All they will have

Is you

And you are not enough

For anyone

Race

Race

This breakneck speed, it never stops

A frantic, hectic pace

The crashing, clanking sound of the world

There’s a reason it’s called the human race

Where do we go when just need a break

When you need to just get away

Sometimes we all need a new look on life

A new prospective on the day

So we head for mountain, sand and shore

To relax and recharge and rest

But maybe we don’t know how to slow ourselves down

What methods really work the best

A change is coming carried on currents

Which way they blow no one knows

Just try to keep your head on straight

This world keeps you on your toes

Alteration

Alteration

If alteration alters

What is left behind?

Is it something new?

What is there to find?

There is something in the changing

Something to be said

Never left to notice

What happens in your head

Tomorrow’s troubles find you

No matter how you hide

If you tell the truth as oft’ as able

You never regret having lied

No Escape

Unanswered here I sit

With my heart in my hands

No longer willing

To wait for you

But unable to give up

It will come crashing down

On my head

Sooner or later

I suppose

The flood gates will open

And the heavens

Will rain down

I will be soaked

Drenched

There is no escape

From you

TILL

I feel your hand touch mine

It slides up my hips

Your tongue burns my skin with fire

As it slowly climbs up my thigh

You pin me up against the wall

My hands are high above my head

You remove your tie

Gently, firmly bind them, bind me

A great pressure begins to mount

There is no time, no space, just us

You raise me so I could touch the universe

As I catch my breath, you slowly start the dance again

We change places and promaenade again, and again.

Till we are exhausted,

Till morning comes,

Till we

Till
