When The Show Is Over

When the show is over, will there be no encore?

I've watched the lonely hands of time,

call all those who had adored

the things that bury restless wild



My mind which strays to a perfect place,

tells me things I want to see,

throughout the pages of my humble ways

I poured my soul and heart to be



for my family and the very best,

who stood by my side as we held together,

the one who held that torch which lit

our way to guide our lives forever



When the show is over, and the cheers echo,

fade away with better days

I'll always remember the surge of flow,

and energy we made up on that stage

Leaf

I fell...
out of the family tree
that granted me
breath

quiet...on my own
soft, untouched

no acquaintance to warn
that vital
breeze of autumn
will come

while
the beauty of my dreams
soar
a colorful silence

the silence
that I
took shelter in

I yearn for the life
which I believe
may believe in me
because
I am the leaf
that no one sees

flying, drifting
riding
your touch
riding...
your touch
into eternity

I am a leaf

Verity

They see me as a gentle spirit who will never stray
I know that in my heart of hearts their kindness day by day
Has brought me to grow into one who's sensitive to those
Who lack within their soul's design the strength to gain repose
My family, I love them dear, they bring to me such peace
They grant to me the patience that I pray will never cease
The openness we often share with every single breath
It makes me feel their love that will survive beyond my death
We share in laughter brought on by the touch of humor's glow
They help me to have deep acceptance for the lives that go
Who held defiance tightly when they met their life span's length
I'd never trade away my kin who give to me the strength
Oh, I do cherish every time their sweet sincerity
Brings gratitude so easily throughout this verity
