I'm Ready

Your voice grows fainter by the day

I fear you'll soon be gone...

So many years have passed us now

I've tried to carry on...

The thought of losing you again

is more than I can bare...

I'm ready now to come to you

please help me find you there...

I've held you in my broken heart

my love has never waned...

I've kissed you in a thousand dreams

and never once complained...

Tonight I'll close my weary eyes 

                  and cross the bridge alone...                

I'll meet you on the other side

at last... I will be home...

Introspection

A quiet day in introspect

so much is on my mind...

Sorting through the daily mail

and trying to unwind...

A glass of wine to smooth the edge

a walk out on the deck...

Relaxing in my favorite chair

a moment to reflect...

Sadness

It seems a thousand years have passed 

since last I saw your face...

I've thought about you many times

the last time we embraced...

Sometimes a whisper of your name

will fall from off my lips...

A sadness then comes over me

and oh... how hard it grips...

A Princess

Waves of lovely golden hair

her blue eyes pierce my soul...

Her smile ignites a raging fire

that quickly takes control...

A touch of sweet Moroccan oil

upon her skin so fair...

Odors from a far off land

that quickly fill the air...

A Princess from another world

I'm powerless to fight...

Everything within me yearns 

to be with her tonight...

Coming Back For You

I thought about you all day long

the memories came in waves...

The hours spent in solitude

emotions all ablaze...

My heart can't take this loneliness

it's more than I can bare...

I thought the feelings would subside

instead they only flare...

I've got to stop and turn around

I'm coming back for you...

It doesn't matter anymore

I can't accept we're through...

From The Start

I hear your laughter in my mind

a smile upon my face...

The way you make me feel inside

I long for your embrace...

My days are filled with love again

such joy within my heart...

Everything about you shines

I've loved you from the start...
