Life

Like A Flower
Blooming
I Can Grow
Outwards

Caressing The Air Around Me
Slowly
Lovingly
Breathing In

Life

With The Very Love
That Will One Day
Flow Through

My Veins

Leave

Maybe My Daughter
Will Fall In Love
With A Man
Just Like Him

And Maybe

It’ll Be
My Job
To Tell Her

If It Was Right
He’d Stay
He’d Know He’d Be A Fool
To Leave A Woman

Who Loved Him

Tell It

Promise Me
That You’ll Tell Me
The Things
That Make You

Absent
Doubtful
Honest
Like,

Love

Anything That Makes You Bleed

Anything That Makes You Hurt

Never Tell Me
What I Want To Hear
Tell It
From The Heart

Tell It

From The Very Depths

Of Your Soul

Alive

Hi
Here Talks
A Hopeless Romantic
Stuck In Her Dreams…

Stuck In Her Dreams
Of Never Ending Happiness
But The Pain… Of Not Knowing

Still Lingers

I Replay Moments, In My Mind
Imagine Things
That May Never Happen
But It’s This Idea Of Love

The Very Notion

That Keeps Me

Feeling

Alive

My Sun

We Long For The Light
In Times Of Darkness
Solace
In The Time Of Anxiety

But He Will Bring Us Out
Of Our Deep Despair
He Provides The Love
He Provides The Care

The Lord Is My Strength
In These Times Of Trouble
He Is The One
Who’s Love For Me

Is More Than Double

Sometimes

I Just Want To Hear The Birds Sing
Their Friendly Chatter
Brings Happiness
To My Soul

A Wonderful Distraction

From The Strains

Of Life

A Simple Song
One Can Cherish
But A Lonely Melody
Can Remain In The Strings

Of One’s Heart

Chaos

Lightning Hits
My Soul
Whenever My Mind
Holds A Thought Of You

Weeks Go By…
Without So Much As A Word
A Message Even
Words, Lost In The Distance Between Us

Chaos Reigns In My Heart
But Only When I Hear Your Voice
Stirring Up A Once Dormant Emotion
That Makes Me Yearn For You

Once More

Lens

As I Propped Up My iPhone
Tilting My Head
Adjusting The Lens
I Found Myself Going Crazy

In My Thinking Of You

All Those Moments Where
My Mind Felt Like A Maze
My Head, A Dungeon And You…

Had The Keys

There I Was Craving You
To Just Be Near Me
My Thoughts You Occupied
Like An Overcrowded Place

What Was It All For? I Mean…
You’re Not Here, With Me Now
Whether It Was Right Or Not
I Can’t Help But Think Of What It Would’ve Been Like…

If It All Just…

Worked Out

The Sun

There Have Been Days
When My World Felt Dark
When My Lack Of Joy
Overwhelmed Me

Throughout The Days
The Monolithic Weeks
I Can Finally… See The Sun
Pouring Though The Cracks

Of My Heart
I Now Have A Sense
That Happiness Is Coming…
In Waves Or A Whirlwind

To Be Honest, I Don’t Care Which
Just So Long As It Is As Eager As Me
For It To Arrive, Whilst Saying
‘… And So, The Adventure Begins!’

Never

I Never Got To Love You
The Way I Wanted To
I Never Got To Hold You
For As Long As I Desired

I Never Got To Feel Your Heart Beating
As I Laid On Your Chest
When I Held Your Hand
I Never Wanted To Let Go

I Never Wanted To Imagine
A Life Without You
I Never Saw Myself
Even Trying To Let Go

I Wanted Every Moment
To Last A Thousand Years
When I Was With You
I Lost Track Of Life…

But At Least I Had You, For A Time
A Second Didn’t Compare
To The Future I Imagined
With You
