(Originally Written Circa 1994)
Gryphon
You left me
to
Live alone
And serenely
I wait
By the phone
It rings
“You’ve won
tons of cash”
I don’t care
I just want
my baby back
Admit that
you
Are wrong
And I’ll
admit I sang
The wrong
song
You were my
friend
But now
you’re gone
I’ll have to
live
Life goes on
But feelings
die
To rise from
the embers
Forget I
knew you
But always
remember
True love
won’t die
And
friendships can end
I guess that
you were only my friend
Sweet
Strawberry Wine
Down to the
water line,
Far from the
town,
So sweet
strawberry wine
Thoughts go
round and round
Under the
starry skies
Away beneath
the night
Oh how hard
he tried
To keep us
warm that night
Later life
went on
As it always
will
Although
that night at dawn
Will stay
with me still
My head has run out
Of rhymes, of time, of love
I no longer
feel safe within myself
You fill my
heart, my soul, my mind
My life is
yours to do as you wish
Untitled
Blooms in
May never smelled as sweet
As when smelled with you
Birds sing
sweeter when heard with you
Touch feels
better when given by you
The sweetest
dessert cannot compare to the taste of your lips
I see
nothing but the beauty of your eyes
You are my
everything, my life, my love, my passion,
You are you,
My all and
my everything
