Memories flood my being
Filled with love
With thoughts of you
With thoughts of all
That we’ve been through
And all that’s left –
Dark lingering remains
Are as ghost kisses
Upon my tired cheek
Tag sadness
Feeling Sad
I’m feeling sad.
Mixture of homesickness and
Missing my family that was, and
Is no more.
Not knowing what the future
Holds in store.
And when I close my eyes and am still –
I feel sad.
Delicious
My flesh aches for yours
Just one more time
To feel your arms
Protecting me
I yearn for you
My lover and friend
I close my eyes to dream
Sweet dreams of kisses
So soft and delicious
That will never be
Again
Nothing Left
Watching you
Watching me
I turn myself away
I cannot open
My heart is closed
I want to run away
I breathe a breath
To calm myself
I have nothing left
To give

Earthly Chains
My heart is sore
At the agony of this world
Bound to an earthly realm
We are bound to an earthly pain
While choirs of angels sing
Heralding a new embrace
My eyes cry tears
Write Me Happy
When I am sad, write me glad
When I am down, write me up
When I am low, write me high
When I am blue, write me bright
When I despair, write me happy
Feeling Sad
Missing my mum
Missing my dad
Missing a life I no longer have
Feeling sad
Missing my family
Missing my home
Missing lives that no longer live
Feeling alone
Missing You
It has been so long
Since I heard your voice
An eternity has passed
Since I felt your arms
A gulf separates your
Eyes and mine
Will I ever see you again?
Fall’s Cold Bite
Fall is in the air
The cold is biting my skin
The day is dark
Sun’s bright light is dimmed
And I know it is just around the corner
When I will be taken back
Back to that time of my life
To that knock on the door
Telling me
Oh, telling me
So cruelly
That my loved one
Is no more
Desperation
at what point does one not give up?
at what point does one persevere?
because I am out of ideas
I am out of kind requests
the path is unclear
I do not know
which way I
should
go
