Dust
She tried to walk in the past
Each step extending back through time
Looking for those she left behind
Following old footprints
From long ago
Each step a journey
Into a lifetime lost
Trailing fingers through the dust
Left on shadowed mirrors
Stirring half remembered dream
Searching for
A soul forgotten
A name no one knows
One heart touched and left to rust
As time marched on
Covered in cobwebs
The winds blow
Bringing change
As she drifts back to life
Letting the dust settle and take the pain
Living her every day life
Making faint trails in the dust
She watches the wind blow it all away
Thoughts lost
Hopes never found
She drifts with the changing times
A green-eyed maiden lost in thought
Her heart touched by sadness
Thoughts of the one she loved
Haunting her dreams
She looks to the dark night sky
His touch a memory of sweet gladness
Whispers remembered
Sweetness longed for
A smile touches her gentle face
His name soft on her lips
Wanting to call to him
But so afraid to open that hurt again
Turns her eyes to the reflected starlight
Sighs deeply, thoughts turning
Wishing she could return time
To find her self in his arms once more
Seeking a sweet kiss
That wonderful laughter
The joy in loving him
Sadly remembering how they parted
Heart torn, pain unending
Soul lost to midnights void
Tears slip from her green eyes
Crystal rain full of loss
Falling unheeded to the rose she holds to her heart
Wondering if she will ever find love again
Slowly bows her head
A green-eyed maiden lost in thought
Dreaming dreams
Of unknown things
The silent sky I see
Reaching as if to touch the moon
Trying to grasp the silent stars.
Your gentle laughter
Echoes through my mind
Your sweet touch
Pulling at my heart's strings
As here I stand
Somewhere between heaven
And heartache.
Holding you close
Looking for a love that would be mine.
Dreaming dreams of untold things
I smile in wonder at you your touch.
As together we watch the silent stars go by.
Softly I speak your name
Whispering words in the wind.
Holding hands in a quite world of our own
As we talk of love and laughter.
Taking me to newfound heights
Where moonlight plays
On the waters of my mind.
Looking into your eyes
I see the stars reflect in their depths.
One soul touching another
As time passes without notice
your lips I seek to give but one kiss
And hold you close forever
Drifting with the wind
Through softly moving clouds
And rainswept skys
The stars a lost glow above
Walking alone through
The falling rain
Smelling that special green smell
That only a storm can bring
Rain falling softly
Among the trees
Brings a peace so clear and clean
Leaving my soul at rest
Here benight this cloudy sky
Among the green leafy trees
Is a place to remember
Times of gentle laughter
Here to hold
Close the sweetest pleasures of life
In all it's pain
Your empty pillow haunts me
Stealing my sleep
Arms empty and forlorn
Soul tossed and torn
Emptiness and endless moonlight
Embrace my lonely thoughts
I turn from my wondering dreams
Seeking comfort
From sad thoughts and tear stained cheeks
Pausing my hand above the silken sheets
I reach to find what I thought was mine
And find only emptiness
Holding my pillow
In sweet embrace
I try to find elusive sleep
Chasing dreams
Letting the tears fall
A sad rain of hope
Dreams drifting through the night
I see the dawns breaking light
Another night of lost dreams
Come and gone
I rise to face the day
