A Mountain Sigh

I am not wanting forgiveness
I wish I could see you once more
Sometimes what I want to forget
Reminds me, knocking at my door

With every bit of sunshine
This rainbow seeking rising Sun
Whispered madness creeping, wanting
A girl alone, showing undone

Excepting nothing my dear friend
You are nothing except my voice
Beautiful dreamer this life known
Let’s celebrate this voice rejoiced

Precious do you see me at all
Perfect this life wants to survive
My voice is like a waterfall
Beneath the clouds I never lie

Your kiss like a mountain sunrise
Glorious ribbons of majestic
Pull me closer to your heartbeat
This girl, my love is heaven sent

Truth I am yours
Written words, whore
Knock at your door
Obliged am I
Damned alibi
Princess denied
Will you hold me
Until I cry
Perfection like
A mountain sigh
Her demise

***

When I don't see you

When I don’t see you
I feel lonely
Your absence a ghost
An arm resting
On an empty chair

Winter tears mourning
Like crests of snow
This untended hill
Flying solo
Please don’t let go

Solaced heart give me
Some sort of peace
Resting all my broken
False hope wanting
Only to believe

Summer rain drown me
Forget this pain
Rewind yesterday
Untold stories
Missing you again

***

I will sing to you

There are times
That I want to
Say goodbye to this damned place

Move along
Forget tomorrow
Close my eyes and wish away

All the hurt
Lies and mistakes
Forever bury this hate

I want to
Remember you
Every moment that was great

Like a river
I am alone
Travelling far from
This home I know

One day I hope
Again we’ll meet
Where deep waters
Live to be free

I’ll miss you
Where I’m going
I wish you’d come along

Someday soon
Our wildest dreams
I will sing to you a song

Disheveled Rebel

Disheveled rebel
Forgotten ghost
I will shout aloud
Regretting myself
Forgone this past
Amassed self-doubt
Wonder whether
Would I ever
Figure it out
Dismembered
Disfigured
This face of calm
Belittles
A riddle
A life unknown
Scorned and still
Adorned a gift
Unto itself
Disfigured widow
A girl alone
A whisper of truth
Modicum of faith
She sees and believes
A life erased
A lonely place
Between life and death
Give her a moment
Let her take a breath
Like ivy climbs
This wall built high
Cherish freedom
Let devils lie
Forever ride
We will journey
Finding Heaven
In her mind
Peace she finds
