For You


Into the black dimensions of my soul I've dived
Looking for anything and everything I once knew
Standing by my side in the dark my shadow cries
Through the emotions and memories I flew

Thought I would find you swimming afloat
Never giving up for a brief chance of eternity
Always remember the invisible light of hope
Grab your hand as we fly to our destiny

Dredging through hate, loss of hope...I found you
Dancing beneath the moon with only our lost pain
You told me forever and this time I knew it was true
I told you I loved you and you knew it wasn't in vain

Standing away from the edge now secure
Holding you close so I know you're there
Watching my sorrow melt all the way through
Seeing nothing is now the only thing I fear

For you I live
For you I die
Till we meet again sweet angel


This next one comes from a dream I had




Familiar Path

Walking through earth grain fields of gold
Staring at the willow tree swaying in the wind
Hating why I'm here to see you in the cold
You were my world, my lover, my friend

I walk the path I've worn to the forest line
Seems things have grown without me here
I begin to clear away the brush and vine
Your stone inlayed name appears with a tear

You loved the view so here with me you lay
A year has passed and it gets easier with time
But the loneliness never fails to seize the day
I can still remember when you were mine

I place the Lily atop the earth, your favorite
The chill begins to hit my core but I'm distraught
Scared I'll forget your face and the feel of it
While remembering everything in a single thought

Parted but never forgotten
