Flashback, Untitled2, There's an Easier Way, The End is Here, Night
Flashback
The strobe strongly flashing
And the disco lights on
The dream I lived not long ago
Escaped and would not stop

It felt like a deja vu
With your gentle sweet smile
One I’ll remember
For a lot more than a while

So far away and so long ago
A different life it seems
The dusty memoried locked away
Revived for just a bit

Those prescious minutes
I’ll treasure till I’m dead
That time that I saw you
Was real and did not end

The lights are off
And the scenery’s changed
But the reality of your presence
I’m sure will never fade
-May 7/97


Untitled 2
Can somebody tell me how to make it right
Can anybody help me climb down from this dizzying height
Will somebody please make it go away
The ruthless pain that always seems to stay
Make the nightmares at night stop
And the daydreams that always run on
I made a mistake to wish for this
It must’ve been a snake’s violent hiss
I try to open my eyes painfully
And still there’s nothing I can clearly see
I hear the roaring thunder
A sound that always makes me wonder
Where in this world do I truly belong
Do I have to listen to this meaningless song
The song of my long-lost life
The painting of a blurry and dark sight
It took over the vibrant and light things
That once were a part of me I think

There’s an Easier Way
There’s an easier way
to kill yourself
than take a knife
and bleed to death

You don’t need pills
to poison yourself
or pull the trigger
with a gun to your head

All you really need
is your heart
to love someone
who doesn’t love you back
-May 11/97


The End is Here
A canyon far too wide
It seems like we’re so far apart
After being so close
There was nothing we didn’t know
It was a heavenly bliss
A closeness I will always miss
The feeling of belonging,
Trusting and of loving
It used to be so clear
But I know the end is here

Night
The moon and the stars
Staring down from the sky
Watching the sweet couple
Walking in the night.

Snowflakes gently falling
What a wonderful sight
A girl and guy holding hands
In the mid-December night.

Soft and gently in the breeze
The arrows of Cupid take flight
As two hearts start to pound
In the safety of the night.

They're walking hand in hand
Together in the dark
The feeling of the sweetest kiss
In the darkness of the night.
