After all that
I’ve been through
Loving you –
Wells of tears
Hopes and fears
Waiting
Dreaming
Hoping
Praying
One look from you
And I melt
After all that
I’ve been through
Loving you –
Wells of tears
Hopes and fears
Waiting
Dreaming
Hoping
Praying
One look from you
And I melt
Be not conformed
But rather, be transformed
Let our lives tell the story
Of where our hearts would rather be

Soft fluttering wings
Flying freely inside me –
Your eyes are power
The sun is shining
And yet a cold undertone
Bites into the impression
That summer has arrived
Bitter reminder
That under the warmth
Coldness remains
Or
Hopeful illusion
That above the cold
There is hope?
Look forward
To new beginnings
And magical mysteries –
Days past are as dust
On a desert plain
The best way to overcome something
Is to simply overcome it
To not think about it
Not obsess over it
Not talk about it
Just move on
And I am
Moving
On
Forbidden kisses
Dance across my mind – your lips
Chase my resistance
One by one
My feel-good band-aids
Have all fallen away
Leaving my wounds
Exposed to the open air
Beautiful, poignant song!
Scars zigzag across my heart
While another stretches across the surface –
Just one more brush painting shadows
Upon a worn calloused slate
