Whisper to me




Whisper to me a sweet melody
Wrap me within your strong loving arms
Stay close, so not even the sun can sneak between us.
Let us sway together within and against the wind
Gently trace the lines on my face
Kiss my lips briefly
Say you will never leave me.

As I open my eyes
I look to the sky
A tear runs down my cheek

I rock on the porch, in our swing built for two,
and wonder why you left?
Our lazy cat gently brushes her tail against my face
The blanket wrapped around me once warmed you too
Your scent fills my senses

I lean back, close my eyes, and pray for you
Come to me
Dance with me
Make me smile again

You are the man of my dreams
I wait for sleep to help me escape

Happiness is finding you
Again.







The Fire Is Out



The fire is out
The room is cold
There are no windows
No light to see
Just what had become of you and me
I search for embers
There is only ash
No water needed
The fire is out

This room is cold
Too cold to stay
I need a way out
I have to leave ~ today
I can not stand to be here any more
The warmth that was once here
Is now no more

No place to rebuild a fire
No windows to bring in some light
It's an empty room
It's an empty life

I leave the room and close the door
It disappears
Another room ~ lost
Another fire ~ gone
Life is about moving forward
Moving on

Another door will open soon
Another fire ~ in another room
There is no looking back
No bad thoughts to have
Just lost memories
How sad

A light will shine
A fire will burn
Life will bloom
Love ~ will find a way.





It Begins With A Spark






It begins with a spark

Ignites into a flame

It charges through your chest

It fills your lungs

Every breath you take burns within your throat

Your eyes water

Your head spins

Your legs are too heavy to move

You reach out...

Hoping to touch something

Hoping to feel something

Needing to hold anything for support

The tips of your fingers reach out a little farther

It's difficult to see through the fog

And then...

Something is there

Something to give you hope that not all is lost

There it is, almost out of reach, but still there

With one last belief in your own heart, you take that leap of faith

And hold onto the one thing you believe can save you.

You leap forward~

~Towards

Love!
