Dream Come True

You're everything I've ever wanted
In a man, before I never could find
Now before my eyes, an unexpected surprise
Here you are, and my wishes on a fallen star
All this time you were here
Now I can finally breathe again,
With you, together?
No longer shall we burden with pain
On our ever mended hearts
I kiss yours, you kiss mine
From this moment onward, we will be more than fine
I cannot tell you I love you enough
Letting each other in
To finally begin
A ghostless life together
Picking each other up, carrying one another
Holding you, holding me
You're my dream come true
And now we can be happy?
Together, just you and me
Our family

The Storm

Stillness settles across our plain
Too many hearts pounding, deafening to the ear
Long waiting, for the blades pain

Anticipating the cut through silence
Not realizing that retribution must be paid
By the blood spilled of those victims of violence

Rumbling Earth shakes as the old ways
Once held passion in the battles for freedom
Quake of horse hooves, wars cries the old days

Mother yearning someone to return
Someone they will remember once again
And bring vengeance upon those who burn

The gift of harvest and life to sustain
Life over centuries past 'til now
Ungrateful bastards returned nothing but disdain

All their evil ways washed away by the rain
After the wait for the battles end
No evidence, nor hate will remain

Rebuilding anew, our land, our home
Fortified fortress of hope and love
Ao what was once lost, may once again roam

Renewed and Rejuvinated

A fantasy born unto me
That one day I will reawaken
To a new world
A new life
I am not afraid

This shell, but a casing
Which holds something too dark
For your prying eyes to handle
It is awake, and very much alive

Using it to bring upon the dawning
Of what many wait for
Their wait will not be in vain
A gift I am far too happy to oblige

Is insanity my friend?
The night walks beside me
Holding my hand
Keeping me safe and warm

I open those gates you linger next to
I will let the blood rain pour down upon you
With only you to face an explanation
In that field you stand alone

Could I ever

How could I ever
Fall in love again
When hope took a tumble
Appears deminishing
And now my heart crumbles
Yet happiness for you lives
A sad fate
Although I hate
I must accept and continue on
May your life be filled with joy
And all you've ever hoped for
Once again
Taken away from me

You

My heart quickens when I see you.
My spirit calms when I hear your voice.
Everything that is and is not within and without me,
Tells me I want and need you
From my dreams, and in to my life
I give you my solemn vow
loyalty and trust

Which One

Which one of us are running
Which one of us is truly afraid
Which one if us knows
Which one of us is jaded
Which one of us dreams of the other
Which one of us dreams
Which one of us reaches out
Which one of us still does
Which one of us will seek
Which one of us will find
Which one of us will give up
Which one of us wants to
Which one of us is unconditonal
Which one of us can feel the other
Which one of us has the balls to make the next move

Untitled To You

I could try to win your heart
Without even trying
I could be all you want me to be
By just being who and what I am
A positive transformation
Without changing all that I am
Could you be the one
All this life searching for
Again, could we feel
Together, that which you shared
Before your presence, standing
At the fingertips to caress
Our spiritual embodiment of heaven
Whisper to me
The lyrics you sing from your soul
And mine to yours
Perfect melodic eternity
