keepsake

thought i fell through shades
of places i couldn't be found
alone i cried to the sky
for heaven to let me drown
as i walked the empty roads
into places no one would see me
I felt as though they'd never know
all the things that i was feeling
then someone gave me forever
and i cried for her honestly
like-minded with my weary heart
she swore we will always be
said I dreamed away in stories
of a love that was everafter
while she stole away my every tear
and gave me back my laughter
and oh, how i longed so much for her
she's an angel away from home
who whispered true that i belong
as a keepsake in her soul

the sweetness you hold

when it is i'm alone
you spindle the words
to exist in my soul
through the sweetness you hold
saving me in moments
from where i once came
the blessing's of truth
the emptiness of shame
how it is i do love you
for you are in my heart
and no distance between us
could keep us apart
i believe so deeply
that these tears that i cry
are for all the things
that i used to deny
like the existence of soulmates
the existence of you
things that i once thought
i would never find true
how you pour your empathy
upon my heart and soul
when you spindle the words
through the sweetness you hold

never

there is no taking back
all my truest thoughts
behind doors i've hidden
and places you've walked
under streetlight alone
as clouds cry with thunder
rain washes away
our yesterdays forever
unknown to your soul
i cried out for help
maybe it was me
who caused you to wail
tears of longing
to save you from hurt
while i dying
by the hands of a murderer
you sensed i was different
and promised me your heart
afraid to lose control
i stepped from the dark
the embrace of loss
drew us together
and i will never leave you
never

when i have you on the phone

please tell me am i crazy
for thinking that i'm wrong
when the things that i would say
would always lead you on
do you think i'm stupid
when i'm blinded to the truth
if all i've ever wanted
was to be with you
when it seems that i play dumb
to everything you say
it's not that i don't hear you
i just seem to fade away
do you think i'm crazy
for thinking i'm alone
i wish that you would tell me
when i have you on the phone

A Bittersweet Haunting

My sweetest gypsy, did I fail to shelter you
 Once when we two, across the land, beneath the stars
Gave life to freedom, long before this gave us through
and through as beasts in cages; oh, how sorrow scars!
Deny the haunting voices in the castle's air
and leave; I will besiege you when the night enthralls--
Although, I know you're bravest when you're in your prayer;
You've felt no comfort when you heard my ghostly squalls
And during your sojourn while you were in my home,
I may have stalked the dungeon's depth but for awhile;
From where I would so bittersweetly therein roam,
Oh, all I ever wanted was to touch your smile.
I've sought a passage to cross over willingly,
While nothing where I am could ever share my view;
It's quite disturbing to know that you chillingly
No longer wish to love me 'cause I bear no hue
So go then sweet; go warn of what deep darkness rants,
But I'll still follow you until at last your kiss
Should tender me yet only when your death then grants
To both our fates: The day we merge as one in bliss.
