Luminescence

Deny me not your tender embrace
It brightens the darkest of nights
Warm me with the light of your face
That shine that makes everything right
Your gentle touch brings me to tears
Knowing it will soon be missed
I wish you could allay my fears
Gone with only one kiss

Naive (Pantoum)

We share a heart so tender
Some do think us naive
We two have only surrendered
We allow ourselves to believe

Some just think us naive
They are unaware of the cost
While we allow ourselves to believe
The real world can be lost

They don't perceive the true cost
That we two have sundered
The real world we have lost
While we share our hearts so tender

No Fault

No Fault

Pardon me I did not see

The light that left your eye

Deliver me and set me free

I believed your tender lie

The world is made of grey and pale

Not just black and white

I saw your love exchange for sale

In fell and blackest night

Now you are just like the rest

Trying to make life seem stable

But that is not what you do best

You can only do what you’re able

Time to rest for the second act

Time to get yourself on track
