I have written. Please do not copy
these and take credit for them. I am
putting these up to share with you. They are a look
into my heart and soul. Hope you enjoy them.
A broken heart has many pieces,
Each has a need of it's own.
And as each need is finally met,
your heart once again finds a home.
But everytime a heart gets broke
it seems a piece gets lost,
and before you are willing to love again,
you must stop to count the cost.
I see people searching in the ashes
of a fire that once burned bright.
Hoping to find a hot coal or two,
to change the wrong back to right.
They reach out to touch a flame,
only to find out that it is cold.
Then they realize it is just a reflection
of the flame, you yourself hold.
What can I say? What can I do?
I see a broken piece or two.
I know that it is hard to erase
all the pain and leave not a single trace.
If I could have one wish today,
I would wish all your pain away
If I could have one wish for you,
I would wish all your dreams come true.
But wishes and dreams are two of a kind.
Fantasies, Illusions, and Games in the mind.
But there is one thing that I can do.
I will reach out and touch a broken piece or two.
And if by my touch that you will receive,
May all of your needs be relieved.
The hours went much too fast just don't know how.
And it is time for you to leave now.
"It's late." you say, and head for the door
while my eyes are staring at the floor.
I wave at your back as you disappear.
Through my haze of tears things just don't seem so clear
You know that I would never ask you to stay,
would never stop you, never delay.
I cherish these precious moments of ours,
comforting talk in the early morning hours.
Then it begins, I cry as the figures of dark come in,
yet, I face a battle that I know I can not win.
Dark figures with beaks chant dark hollow words
They just keep screaming until my whole body hurts
Singing about things I do not want to hear
They keep telling me that our end is near.
I watch them flying around within these walls,
Echoes of my fears in my mind's deep halls.
I just can't wait for the dawn of a new day.
God I hope that I did not just lose you when you went away.
I looked into your face today and saw joy,
As you sat there and enjoyed your little toy.
Then I stopped and smelled a rose
and I thought about how fast life goes.
Always in a rush,always in a hurry
then I look back and it all seems blurry.
I am going to take my time from now on
because before I know it you will be all grown.
Then I will look back with enjoyment
rather than feelings of disappointment.
