Life is a pool
So deep we could drown
We are all diving in the ocean  
Holding our breath our whole life long
And when the time comes
As our lives are done
We finally surface
To see what may come

A lock to fit the key
To it all to everything
A key to unlock your heart
When your lost and all alone
And one that reminds you to make your way back home
There is one to lock emotions away
And one to set them free
Theres one to make me into you
And make you into me
Theres one to fill the hole in me
Thats what you had left behind
And one to fix the cracks that you can find inside my mind
Theres one that shuts out all the lights
And one to turn the day into the night
There is one that will take you to where you want to be
And one to many doors to worlds you've never seen
The funny things is that most are lost inside me
So may i find the keys inside of me

~                           I would tell her about it
                       About all my hopes and dreams
                             Show her i cant give it all
                         But ill give her what she needs
                          I would build a house of card
                         As long as she is here with me
             I would tell her everything that I carried along
                          Shed the tears we need to cry
                        And share our haunted dreams
          I would give you everything you thought you need
                 There on the porch we would sit in the eve
                              Watching our lives trickle by
                               Knowing you are all i need
                           I woke up with tears on my face
                             Knowing it was all a dream

Like love
There is a time for everything
Feel the days passing nights
Inside your hands hope blooms again
Long face lost soul
keep smiling
Perhaps the times will change

There are other worlds than these.
We swim in many oceans,
But wash up on the same shore.
A million choices ,
And none.

Autumn's body lay cold and beautiful
It's sad she has to pass with the winter

My waking eyes,
turned happiness to a glass floor.
Can you see the cracks?
I can see them.

I've been in darkness so long
      *I've forgotten the light

Goodbye sweet friend
We'll meet again
Our paths will cross
When i meet my end

Broken years
And cold dreams
Its no wonder
This is me

I may have broken something inside of me,
All the happy things that where,
Are now just memories.
The days they pass all to fast,
No time to sit and mend,
So the crack in glass will shatter that which was a whole,
And i feel their splinters deep within my soul.
Perhaps ill take the scattered things,
To make a new mosaic of me,
Maybe rearranging things will make a man out of me,
And sometimes ill dream of who i used to be.

Laugh through the pain
Scream with the rain
Love like the wind
*Here then gone again

~              Isn't it strange the words that we say
                         These emotions we have
                   are just masks that we've made

~                      I stood outside her heaven
                            Hoping for a glimpse
                       Through crystalline window
                     Of multi faceted stained glass
                         It made her look an angel
                       Yet i know a demon resides
                          Beauty from the outside
                            But rotten black inside
                  Sweetest words with dark beneath
                 Even though id like to throw a stone
                     To shatter the silence between
     The rot inside pushed you far away from what is me
                     Ill shed a tear for cold lost years
                         And turn to find my heaven

All good things must pass
Leaving only photographs
Now I wait to pass
*So I can leave my photograph

I had it
      Once
           At least i thought so
      In youth
                                           The waters where crystal
                     Yet as i grew
                                                           So The impurity grew too
   I thought age would bring clarity
                             Yet age only brought decay

I am a strange boy,
Who nobody ever knew,
Nearly a ghost in shadow,
And talk to me they never do.
Yet as i grew i became myself,
I don't need you or anyone else.

When the sky was torn from the core of velesti ,
Down came the rain that washed us out,
And with that water came life,
From her body came the mountains, valleys and plains,
The oceans where her tears ,
That she shed for the loss of her consciousness,
From energy to earth,
From the clay where once her naval lay,
Grew the life tree that connects heaven to earth,
From earth to energy,
The lush green of the brushing leaves,
Her breath the wind is rushing,
Weaving life into a stone,
And from  the stone then came the blood,
To bathe us in her splendor,
The rain came down and kissed the ground ,
Blessing everyone around us,
And so we to,
will be there soon,
Blood, bone, sand and stone from earth to energy.

It all passes by,
With the ticking of the clock,
Your family,Your friends,
Whats past is gone,
And looking forward we journey on ,
Now is all we have,
For tomorrow might be gone,
So smile while you can,
When we go ,
We forget where we've been,
And only dream of it now and then.

~                        I walk this thin white line
                               Between what i am
                                And what you see
                                 For what you see
                                       Is not me
                      In time ill be the flowing wind
               The diamond drops on growing leaves
                   An autumn rain thats comes again
                      The bitter cold of winter winds
                     The first snowfall when it begins
                          Gentle drops on stony skin
                             When i die and go back
                             Back back to everything

where was i just now?i found myself eye to eye with a crack id almost fallen into,but no recollection of how i had come here,there on the precipice i gathered my worldly belonging ,which mostly consists of my body and what clothes on my back,and so i turned from the void, i chose life ,though i may find the chasm again  and next time i may fall.

A poisoned dream comes back to haunt me,
She is no good for me.
Her words are vitriol their killing me,
So all i can do is close my mouth and leave.

Little lost notes of pain
From a time when you where here
Before the passage of time
And your passing as well
Making me weep
Memory is such bittersweet solace
Yet thats where ill find you
So thats where ill be

The sound was bitter
As walked from faith
Saying to myself
Its better this way

Its strange how everyone know you when your standing, yet when  you've fallen they would happily tread on and trample you into the past,
Its strange how things change, we are wed to the present our past the baggage and the future holds our breath  ,its to bad we cant be grateful for every breath, i would give you a flower if we werent in the wasteland , nothing around but sand and standing clouds, as long as we are together its ok ill just make a castle out of sand
Ill pretend like its my land we can settle down and change

Away the memory went,
Leaving broken faith,
Lost hope for better days.

~                                               Sleep
                            Let peace come in the morning
                       Let gentle happiness come afternoon
             when evening comes as light slips from the sun
        Ill dream of subtle pretty things as another day is done

Where i was I've never been and when I'm there its new to me,
A sea of sorrow i swam to be nowhere to go no place to flee,
And as i walked this empty road it seems the sides are made from bone,
Its all a river flowing patiently and there i am in the gentle stream,
As time move on it changes me but in my heart you'll always be,
The sun beats down await the sound of singing birds up in the leaves,
And where i go I've never been yet its still new until the end,
So hope tomorrow ill  find less sorrow and find the light that shines within,
That holy glow that in my soul will always hold,
And when my coil is old and grey and my light flees to everywhere,
All that is it will be ok come shining sun or winters grey,
There is a place ive always been and in your heart there is room for me,
Not for my gain but for the chance there is something of worth in me.

Pick up
To stick up
And sit down
*To stone

If I should go one more kiss I would know
To linger on my skin
Like chill November wind
a shiver running down
reminds me even when you're not around
The remains of love left on my finger tips

When i feel the wind blow across the lonely empty plain,
A chilling tickle tingle on my cheeks ,
Across the great plain a vast wasteland ,
Yet sometimes it rains ,
And when it does the fields turn green ,
There is a subtlely  pleasant smell ,
It makes me think of gentle nights alone apon the plain,
In the grass i lay the night for mornings sweet revival ,
And in that time i breathe no more back to natures green embrace,
And with the wind i blow now through your hair and off your cheek.

~                     A life goes out the window
                         Sans the shoot of course
                          Flying last few seconds
                           Last moments of glee
                 I saw my mom and my father too
                    My family that days have past
                                 There is me
                                sitting quietly
                      In the lull beside the brook
                Those where all the happiest days
                             Me my dog and i
                      Needed no one to get by
                      The smells where sweet
                           And colors bright
                              All the things
                            ill take with me
             Into that gentle sweet goodnight
                         The moments done
                           The time has run
          And now here comes my setting sun

~                             I fell today
                        Skinned my knees
            Before the pain came great malaise
              To fall again after so many days
                   Of keeping things straight
                   And trying for better days
                               I fell again
                         Scraped my knees
        It took me back to where i don't want to be

What do you do when it all falls down?
Do you pick up the pieces even if theres only ash around
Do you sit down to cry hoping soon you will die
Or do you try to leave the past behind
And standing hope that you will find
Another path
One more chance

Rain falls down splashing at the ground that lies in front of me,
Though i hear the whisper of water drops talking to me,
No i don't hear the thunder i see the rain,
It falls for miles all around me,
And though i feel the pain i don't have to let it strain,
The darkness lies on me but with your light i can see,
Awake me from this dream and its become reality,
I felt that i had dreamed for so many years it seemed,
But your sweet gentle kiss across my finger tips,
Awoke me from my  slumber,
My dreams they all came true and i can sit and wait for you,
Out there on the porch we grow up we grow old ,
But this was all a dream a fading memory,
A kiss before you leave before you know its been gone,
Maybe when i sleep if i dream ill dream with you,
hand in hand we will move toward the door,
Into the dark but our love will light our hearts,
You lead And ill follow you into the night.

One of those days ,
Where nothing goes your way,
Lose your job,
Lost your dog ,
Then your car breaks down,
Well...****

Sometimes its right,
Sometimes things work out right,
Sometimes the stars align ,
And sometimes the dream dies,
Sometimes you come,
Sometimes you leave,
Sometimes the sun shines,
And sometimes the wind blown leaves,
Sometimes its right,
Sometimes it lasts all night,
Sometimes theres beauty in the moonlight ,
But sometimes we fall ,
Sometimes we shouldn't have come at all,
Sometimes the ugly things are seen,
Sometimes you wake with tears on your face,
And sometimes we die.
Sometimes there isn't a choice,
Sometimes we have no voice,
Sometimes where left behind,
And sometimes we find beauty in our own minds,

It is tender ,
It is cold ,
It is jaded ,
It is old,
It is foolish,
It is wise,
It is disguised,
It is blind,
It is kind,
It is my heart and though it is bittersweet,
it is mine.

No heart no rose no stone,
Another valentines alone,
No wish no kiss no lasting bliss,
No ring comes from the phone,
Oh well ill spend it at home,
And sit within my silence.

Back go back,
To where the light was bright.
Back and back,
Where i first met the world.
Here it was here,
The magic was found,
Time in time,
The illusions died.
Mourn i mourn,
For the brilliance lost.
Lost I'm lost,
But may be found.
