Sailor At Sea

There's a light on outside
it beckons my love to me
for soon he will return,
He's been away at sea
My Love for him grows stonger
each time he goes away
I know he shall return to me
his love don't let him stay
he has a chance to  come home again
maybe not to stay
But at least I'll get to
hold him for another day.

Season's Of Love

The season's of Love are many
unlike those of time,
Are varied and many that we
follow with are hearts each day.

The budding of new Love life,
like the coming of spring.
the blooming of a tender Love,
that comes like the new young trees.
Growing brighter with the years.

The summer comes and brings
the heart, of passion, that's
stored within. The days grow  long
as were apart, missing you when were away.
From the touch of one another.

The leaves of fall begin to change,
just as our love begins to settle
We feel the changes taking place
as we continue to discover each other.

Winter comes, cold at last,
the fires burning bright.
We snuggle closer to each other
seeking to hold  on.
To a Love that has grown
so strong and deep, forever
it's intwined.

Situations

The situations stay the same
it's only the faces that really change
They all love you in the beginning
but that love soon begins to fade
They really need you in there life
at least till they get things right
It's Like a merry go' round
your world gets turned upside down
It seems I'm on a train
that's running out of track.
Maybe then they'll see that
I'm not a pawn in there scheme

State of Mind

Altered states of mind
twisting through ones head
seemingly interesting subjects
of the colors, blue and red.
The warped sense of reality,
it takes over once again
But if we take the chance
we can conquer and even win
Escape is how we view it
breath it in our souls
the time and distance is
valid, proof that we are there
But the lapse of those
once weak moments
brings us back to search
for more.

Strangers

A Stranger in my life
as you walked in through the door
This feeling just came over me
and I began to love you more
It seems just like a dream
how you've brightened up my life.
Somehow I just know that
we shall be each others destiny
These feelings seem so right
as our love takes us through the night
Babe, I love you more with
Every passing day, so please don't go away

Sunsets

As I watch the sun set along the shore
and the sky turns to a crimson hue,
my thoughts drift lovingly away to you.
the peace and tranqulity that washes
Over me, as I think of your warm hands
caressing me,just as the color washes the sky.

The setting sun just like the
resting of your head against my body,
encircling me with your warmth.
There's no greater feeling than being
able to enjoy the sun setting ,and
then drift away to thoughts of loving you.

Take Me Away

I look at the moon
I look at the sun
and there I will stand
until the day is done
For when you leave
I will be lonely
and I'll wait patiently for you
to come back to me

Because when you left
you said you'll always love me
then you'd take me away.

One to many days have passed
and each day I cry.
But my love for you still haunts me
and it will never die.

And I know when you do come back
and this I do believe
You'll never go away again
'cause you won't want to leave.

The Rose

The Rose of life or
death as it maybe
Can answer even the deepest
questions about life to me
the petals of a forgotten love
the stem of yet one more
the thorns just a reminder
of the hurt that's still in store
The sweetness of It's gentle scent
tempting you  to love once more
the innocence is just  the sacred dream of a life
that is no more.
