"Follow Me"
"Innocent Beauty"

A broken dream,
A shattered heart.
Hair blowing behind me,
Too many distractions.
I leave this world for awhile,
And forget my heart's ambitions.

I see the shining light of the future
With dismal affection.
My heart has shifted to the past,
Where all my troubles are.
Discovering no one else to comfort me,
I must rely upon my own devices to survive.
My future is up to me.

"Follow Me"
5-31-98

Words leave me here at night,
They fall away with the light.
Coming darkness; shimmering moon,
Why must it all leave so soon?

Forget these dark nights alone;
Leave them along the passing road.
Forget me as the years go by,
And I'll see you through to the end.
Follow me there.
Follow me to the waning moon,
Follow me through it all,
And then leave me on the doorstep of death.

"Innocent Beauty"
6-21-98

Rising confusion.
Looking to the right and seeing innocence.
Watching her beautiful lips move,
Hearing her song spill out of her lips,
Gazing at her through clouded eyes,
And feeling the emotions come.
My heart racing, thoughts tumbling.
I gaze ahead and wonder,
And then I see that these emotions
Must be hidden like the light in my life.
I have to listen and understand,
These thoughts must be forgotten.
I don't want to forget; I want to speak.
I want to hear her voice a little longer.
I want to remember her face,
When I've forgotten the others.
I want to feel her arm brush mine once more.
I know it can't happen,
I know that she'll soon forget,
And I know that she doesn't need me.
These feelings keep coming back.
They return with every sunrise,
Every starlit sky shines on me as a reminder
Of what cannot be, and what must stay silent.
