walking in the shadows
Lost
I'm looking
to the world
but for just a moment

that love would come
then singing
wishes left unspoken
and singing of
pain and heart ache
singing of
broken promises
but singing of Love's
beauty
and the world's
Love
and the world's
beauty
but singing of Love's
broken promises
singing of
pain and heart ache
and singing of
wishes left unspoken
then singing
that love would come

but for just a moment
to the world
I'm looking
Lost
walking in the shadows
first reverse poem, i'd like to know how it worked out

Each time I see you dance
My heart just skips a beat
Love and rhythm
In perfect harmony

You couldn't be more perfect
When you're dancing to the beat
Motion and music
In perfect harmony

But when the music stops
And reality strikes the beat
Drama and heart ache
Have the only harmony

I'm dancing alone now
To my lonely heart beat
Love and heart ache
In perfect harmony.

My heart is beating fast
To the beat of a thousand drums
My mind is speeding past
To the sound of a thousand songs

A thousand voices combined in harmony
Rise higher, brighter, stronger
Lifting my soul till my spirit sings

A timpani triumphs over the trumpet's cries
While the trills of the golden strings
Ascend like angels beginning to fly

A crescendo vibrates with breathtaking power
My heart nearly bursts with joy
No moment passes when my eyes do not smile

Every fear was the last I held
Every sense is alive with love
Every light is bright and gold
Every breath is a new life begun
Written after singing with the symphony <3

My eyes turn blue for you
Every time I cry
The coldness inside
Turns my eyes crystal blue

When you see me smile
Don't be fooled
Please see the reflections of truth
In my sapphire eyes

The first sight was breath taking
The second, a sigh
The wind whipped through the air
As I watched an eagle fly

The first breath was halting
The second beautiful
The sun was beating down
Strong as the hand that made me whole

The first dance was intriguing
The second caught my heart
The music  sped through me
With my heart's rhythm beating its part

The first sight was breathtaking
The last a sigh
A thanks in her direction
A kiss goodbye
It sounds stupid but it felt like there was something almost... alive about the place. It was truly amazing..

"My angel!" he calls
"I long for your touch."
"My angel," he cries
"I love you so much.."
"My angel!" he yells
"I need you here.."
"My angel," he whispers
His eyes full of tears

A silent shadow
Across a midnight sky
Beauty and danger
Within him, he flies
Moonlight hints
At peace and wonder
Through a snowy scene
This hunter wanders
Freezing winds
Lift high his cry
Piercing fear
Where comfort would lie
