Is It Over ©©

I’m a dreamer

I’m a thinker

I have been a father

A lover

I have been the villain

A hero to some

Close your eyes and think of what I’ve said

Ask yourself

Who am I

Who are we

Who am I deep inside where it hurts when I lie

Who am I when I look away from the mirror

What was yesterday is lost to time

Slowly fading from my mind

The darkness creeps over what is left

Only the heart stubbornly holds onto a sliver of hope for words that were once given

Something that isn’t really there anymore

It’s just what you want and can’t have

I look into the night sky and watch my dreams drift away

Up into the darkness among the shining stars

For someone else with the fire to hope for what they desire

Is it over for me 

No, I don’t think so

I’m not who I once was or ever will be

The silence I find in the still of the night

Is the music that soothes a burning mind

The embrace of the darkness caressing my soul

While I become who I must be, the new me

When the night is over do the stars still shine

As I drift away into tomorrow

What Never Began ©©

How long has it been

I can’t remember who you are

When did we meet, where

How did all of this begin

How did it all end

Did it

Cold is the emptyness inside

Where there was always nothing

Yet something still remains

Betrayed by a longing heart once again

We couldn’t have been

If there has to be an end

I don’t remember your face

Do you remember mine

Was it all real or are you just a wish I never made

I don’t remember loving you

Maybe I never did

If we never even had been

How can I love you 

When I don’t feel the love for you

How long has it been

Was it the only time we met

That one and only glimpse

When I fell in love once again

Rain ©©

Rain is falling

Washing away any ghosts still lingering

Diluting the tears of time

Breaking down the weight I carry

Rain is falling all night long

Chilling, tasteless relentless

Erasing footsteps i once called mine

Places I had to go

Rain is falling

Pounding onto my skin

Lightning stabs the night 

The sky bleeds down on my soul

The rain is still falling

Through all the fires and pain

Across every memory

Especially those that hurt the most 

The rain is falling

I see all the faces in the puddles left behind

This is all that’s left of me

Screaming in the rain as I slowly fade away

The Lady In Red ©©

I was there when the sun fell from the sky

Your hair dancing in the blazing sun

The stars were high above

I remember how they shined in your eyes

I remember your lips on mine

I dream of those times

How we were in the night

The whispers in the dark

How we made love until the sunrise   

The scent we left behind

Your smile touched my soul

Taking all the air and leaving me breathless

Gasping to know you even more

I still remember holding your hand in mine

My heart skipped a beat when you first took it

You were the one that lit the desire inside

I wanted you more and more until you were mine

But you said i was meant for someone else

Taking me one more time before all was gone

Like a dream that disappears when you wake up

Goodbye my lover, goodbye my friend

I will love you until the end of time

Stay in my dreams forever and ever

Lost in the cracks of my mind

For me to love time and again

Stay In My Dreams ©©

Alone in the shadows

Trapped in the darkness of my soul

Silenced by the secrets kept inside

I try not to loose my mind

Deep in the darkness I feel the pain

A feeling deep inside, a hunger I can’t explain 

Consuming the passion, the flame once here 

A desire silenced by time

A silent spirit cries for a spark of life 

To light up the shadows of time

What can I do when I have lost the fire

While drowning on the outside

Lost inside a truth. doubt fuels the fires of hope

Chained to the darkness, where only love can shatter the night

Salvation awaits where hope has died

Ready to ignite a flame to feed the hunger I feel

My spirit cries for times gone by

When love wasn’t pain 

Tortured by memories of me are all that remain

Is this the end or the beginning of what’s to come

Where Are The Memories Of Me ©©

Somewhere lost in the corners of my mind

There’s a child dreaming of being a man

Reaching out for everything

Grasping nothing but pain

Dark nights staring down at an empty glass

A grey fog fills up my thoughts

So many roads going so far away

All leading right back to the start

Somewhere are memories of me

Pictures of a past buried in dust and torn webs

Faces of those I loved and lost

The secrets I hid away from my soul

If the world fell down

Would I drown

Would the sky above stay blue 

Or just fade away

The roads are now empty

As are my dreams

All that remains are memories lost in the shadows

In the dark corners of my mind

Goodbye ©©

Was I wrong when I walked away

Was I wrong when I took what was mine

I gave you what made me whole

I gave what you threw away

Why should I carry guilt

You threw our love away

Your lips touched mine

Was that another lie or a mistake 

Now I follow the stars above

Chasing what I gave away

To find my spirit 

To fill my soul with laughter once more

I dream of what was 

What could have been

You could have been the light at the end my night

Instead of the darkness of my soul

The silence was swallowed up by the storm

Your touch is now gone

We have nothing left 

But the time we shared

Goodbye from my heart

Goodbye from my soul

Goodbye from my dreams

Goodbye 

Whispers ©©

I wish I could go back in time

Not to fix my mistakes

Not to change what has become or will be

Just to see familiar faces

The world crumbles all around

The landscape is eaten up by time and progress 

Pyramids come and go

As do the faces that I once knew

I run my fingers through my hair

Struggling to remember them by name

Their faces slowly fading away

Becoming ghosts in my mind

Going back is not the cure

The lies would be the same

The pain a hundred fold

But I would see everyone one more time

Alone in this empty house that was once a home

The sorrow consuming parts of my soul

The whispers call from the darkest of night

But there’s no going back anymore
