Meet Me Tomorrow
Outside none dared to venture
Under the awnings huddled the masses
Another end to something good
Remembering the joy of ole
Ever wishing for more
Make me that again
Yes we can have more
Sing to me of dreams unlived
Hear the desire in my voice
I know the way to get there
No room for doubt here
Instead only love for you
Need and want combine
Great are the pure of heart
Stubborn and naive in realness
Taking your hand to drag you near
All will be better than before
Rest knowing that I Love You So

Winter
As winter, so is his Fate
Storm comes again,
Clouds block the Sun
Wind blows, the world turns white
How long will it last
The question hangs
Just like the breath
In the air thick and heavy, waiting
He stands at the door
You should go
Before its too late
Get wood, we will need fire
Her look is gentle
Even kind, he stares
He stills, what if she stays
No, not that, she must go
Like reading his mind
She tilts her face
To see him direct
I'm here to stay, I can't leave
But the darkness comes
The winds will howl
The snow will fall
For how long will it last, this time
The stillness comes
Like an avalanche
It is heavy and unbending
But she doesn't move, he stares
She rises, he watches
I can do this too
She piles the wood
Lights the tinder and gently blows
He turns away
This isn't right
Not the plan at all
How can it be not what I want
She puts on water
What is she doing
What is she thinking
I said go, she can't say
I don't mind
I like storms
And when Winter leaves
When Spring comes, then tell me bye
If you still must
If you still want
If you still need
But I will not leave while dark comes

Valentine
for my one and only,
just to make you
feel my love,
at last,
You make me smile,
I am hopelessly addicted,
when you kiss me,
you leave me.....
breathless
If I leave it all
in Boston,
Would you come along
to New York?
You teach me
how to be loved,
These words, you say,
Take me to Heaven
To hear you say, you
Miss me when I'm gone,
In my heart, you
Bring on the wonder
Nothing else compares,
when you,
love like we do
I will love you,
Always Forever

Faces
Should it be the happy face,
the one that is smiles and laughs
all sunshine and lolipops
good thing no one looks at you
Which face to wear today?
Should it be the strong face,
the one that never flinches
all knowing and certain
nothing to surprise or shock
Which face to wear today?
Should it be the thinking face,
the one that is quiet and removed
all distant and thoughtful
no real emotions just facts
Which face to wear today?
Should it be the pleasing face,
the one that simply says yes
all please and thank yous
no demands or requests
Which face to wear today?
Should it be a question asked,
to feel the need to hide
no honesty no truth
nothing that is real or worthy

She
She's not tall enough,
Even when she jumps,
It is all luck if she grabs the bar
She's not small enough,
She isn't considered petite
She's just somewhere in between
She's not quite enough,
She's not smart enough,
Even when she tries
It just isn't enough for any pride
She's not smart enough
She's not respected for thought
She's not not smart enough
She's not blissfully ignorant
She's just somewhere in between
She's not quite enough,
She's not nice enough
Even when she tries
Its too much or just wrong
She's not nice enough
She's not considered sweet and kind
She's not mean enough
She's not considered strong and independent
She's just somewhere in between
She's not quite enough,
She's not old enough
Even when she speaks
Her words are not listened to
She's not old enough
She's not considered knowledgeable
She's not young enough
She's not naive and innocent
She's just somewhere in between
She's not quite enough,
She's not rich enough
Even if she could
She would not buy him or his love
She's not rich enough
She doesn't own her world
She's not poor enough
She won't sell her heart or soul
She's just somewhere in between
She's not quite enough,
She's not pretty enough
Even all dressed up
She doesn't stand out of any crowd
She's not quite pretty enough
She won't turn heads
She's not quite plain enough
She isn't completely ignored
She's just somewhere in between
She's not quite enough
She's not a lot of things
She wishes she was more
She's not the worst of things
She knows there is worse for sure
She's just somewhere in between
She's not quite enough
She tries her best
She knows it usually short
She gives her all
She knows its too wrong
She just isn't quite enough

I Try
Just this faint little nag,
A little shadow in the back of my mind
It sits and waits
It waits for the sun to rise and fall,
Then in the dark it grows
Just a little at first
Just a whisper, a wonder
It waits for the silence to show
It knows that silence echos the whisper
It sends the whisper to fill the silence
Just a thought, a question
I try to ignore the rise and fall of the sun
I try to encourage the voices in my head
To keep out the silence
To drown the whisper
I repeat words heard
I whisper wishes in the dark
I grab emotions to hold tight
I beg for what I need most
I sit and wait
I wonder and think
I converse with the voices in my head
I imagine a different day
Rise and Fall
Step Forward
Step Backwards
Fall Down and Stand Back Up
