Lonely Haunting

God made me strong
Though I am weak
A firm belief
Of all I am

Your voice it screams
It wants to know
Who's listening
My voice is cold

What do you say
To what you know
Is what you hear
What you've been told

Loneliness haunts
Or so I'm told
Feed me something
Derelict soul

Path unwandered
Discovered truth
Forever lost
Now without you

***

Tree

With slender reach
I brush the night
These gentle hands
Gather blue tears
Fallen from sky
Weighted concrete
Keeps me here
Still I do fly
Soar with Angels
Sing with the dusk
God’s will I try
Take leave my roots
Onward I climb
Brave silhouette
Like fingers rise
Seeking heaven
Uprooted mind
Pale my divine
Spiraling heights
Bell tower chimes
Rise and take flight
And leave behind
A lonely oak
Rooted in time

***

Over You

I'm over you
I no longer
Am prisoner
To your truth
For sure I miss
Your lovely kiss
I am done
We are through
Every part
Of me and you
I will bury
Hide the body
Find someone new
Boy finally
I'm totally
And utterly
So completely
Finished here
This last dance
Our last chance
To refire or
Retire the past
We are broken
No going back
But still I wish
That we, you, this
Could have lived
But contrived
Can't survive
I'd be lying
For denying
What we had
Wasn't bad
Just not enough
When things got tough
Our fire
Desire
Had no room
Wouldn't bloom
It's our time
Say goodbye
Love ya baby
Know that I tried

***

I will wait

The Moon he waits on the Sun to rise
To take his place amongst the stars
The rose wakens with morning dew
Embrace the day and start anew

Patience a virtue longs to be
A rainbow only follows rain
A lover’s caress, a memory
I visit you inside my dream

A biding of time to pass the day
Winter falls in deepest slumber
Seasons do pass by counting their days
A wish on bended knee I pray

If good things come to those in waiting
The passing of time without you
My heart it waits for you forever
If ever is never
Still I will wait for you
