Take it one step at a time baby.
You’ve lost your heart,
Here
Have mine.
I’ve lost my mind.
We will both get better.
Just give it time.
Take it one step at a time baby.
You’ve lost your heart,
Here
Have mine.
I’ve lost my mind.
We will both get better.
Just give it time.
How is it that you can pull on my heart,
Stir me,
When you breathe so far away?
I think you left your dreams under my pillow.
I think you left your hands here for I feel them
Singing me to sleep.
I think your essence is in my bed
Still tangled in my sheets.
I cried for you
The tears you denied yourself.
Knowing what you had been through.
What you will endure.
Because I know the face you keep from the sun.
I know the heart you keep undone.
The face I have always loved.
The heart I have always loved.
Always.
You will dream of me
Until your end.
And then on misty moor;
Through shadows gloom
Will you continue to roam.
Evermore
Forsaking your eternal home.
Your longing unending.
Arms always empty
In your shapeless form.
Not long enough
Did you hold me while your heart
Was still warm.
At this time
You may not require the burning light
Of the sun
To revive yourself.
It might feel too harsh and the heat
Much too
Intense.
Sometimes it is the gentle
Caress
Of the moonlight you may wish for
To enlighten your heart.
The moon.
Ever steady,
Waxing and waning.
Both the moon and the sun give light freely.
Each
Have their own gift to offer
A soul in need.
This incredible sadness
Pretends to play nice
With my endless madness.
It heaves in my heart
Swearing we shall never part;
For it loves me ever so.
Sadness only wants to hold me and
Keep me company,
But madness swears
It’s had my back since the start
Therefore remains my truest friend.
And to the argument there seems to be
No end.
I just want them to be allies
And leave me
Here on the summit high.
Just let me be.
Let me be.
Simply be.
I
Taste your sorrow.
Damp cheek to cheek.
Warm heart to heart.
Everything is okay here in the
Dark.
We feel each others scars as if a map to the galaxy
Itself.
Us,
High with
Need and awe.
Now glowing in the night
Filling the shadows with envy.
Our ties
Deeper than the heart can feel.
Deeper than the mind can fathom.
Soul love oneness.
There are no words for this.
Live aware
Knowing it is.
Him.
There he is
So human.
Unaware
That he alone knows the poetry of my heart.
Unaware
That
He is the
Living ,
Breathing
Poem of my soul.
Let’s sneak out after midnight.
Meet me down the road.
We’ll go running through the field.
Nobody will know.
Bring your father’s bourbon
And a radio too.
We’ll listen to some music.
Maybe dance a song or two.
I’ll bring us a blanket
And wear my yellow dress.
The one I wore last summer.
The one you like best.
We’ll lay down with each other.
Not breathe a single word.
Because we know what our hearts are saying.
Nothing that can be heard.
We’ll count the stars to a million.
We’ll laugh until we cry.
We’ll hold each others hands.
Watch the lightening bugs make fire in the
Sky.
And I can’t wait to see you.
Can’t wait to breathe you in.
Can’t wait to see your laughing eyes
And do it all again.
