A Fantasy

I'm captured in a fantasy

a prison so it seems...

A never ending search for you 

each night within my dreams...

I can't escape the way I feel

no matter how I try...

This longing deep within my soul

sometimes I sit and cry...

Oh come and take me in your arms

and hold me all night long...

Whisper words I long to hear 

and stay where you belong...

Please

Drifting out upon the sea

no rudder or a sail...

A broken compass in my heart

as all our efforts fail...

So far from when we first embraced

I never wanted this...

It seems like only yesterday

our many nights of bliss...

I'm lost without you in my life

can't bare to be alone...

Let's try to make this all work out

oh baby please come home...

Crisis Point

Running from a crisis point

I can't give in this time...

The hardest thing I've ever done

is leave you far behind...

I can't allow my heart to hold

these feelings about you...

Or let my weakness manifest

for all to see it too...

I've got to stop this while I can

before it's much too late...

Forget about what might have been

and silence my debate...

Sunrise

The Sun arrives and paints the sky

and darkness slips away...

Morning mist upon the ground

the dawning of the day...

Up ahead a rooster cries

a proud and boastful sound...

Slumber sets his captives free

to rise and move around...

In A Flash

So many years have past me now

a lifetime in a flash...

The glory days were far too short

I thought they'd always last...

Uncertain Days

So many things in life have changed

uncertain are the days...

The constants that I grew up with

have changed in many ways...

I don't know where we're going to

there is no end in site...

What once was right is now all wrong

and wrong is now alright...

I'm struggling with my attitudes

and torn in many ways...

I find myself reflecting more

upon the former days...
