Time is a gift I should cherish each moment a one time event,
-
The child inside of me is blind and dumb held captive in her own subconscious slum
-
How small a pocket you could push me into
wasting in the gutter like a dime,
-
How does it feel to be betrayed
when things are not as they’re portrayed

Is my glass half full of hope or despair
does the balance lean toward “I don’t care”
-
Though death is nigh and trampling winds
rush blindly through the trembling skies,
-
Love knows no age, no time, no bounds its pureness unassuming,
-
Is there really life down here in this festering abyss,

Is there really life down here in this festering abyss,
-
Beating death at its own game
to persevere with great acclaim,

I flowed into the ocean of your life
beneath the clouds of cold cold smoke I stayed,
-
I cradle my whole world within my arms a precious bundle of new found riches;
-
As I dwell in my stimulating world filled with motion, sound and vibration,
-
In that moment when you’re dreaming
suddenly you hear a voice,
-
As evening dons her violet gown and lengthened shadows cast around,
-
The question is “Was Humpty Dumpty pushed?”
or was he stressed and plumped for suicide?
-
Who is this man that leads us through the dark?
the eagle heart that beats with angel wings,
-
Wearily I lead the night patrol
full of doubt that what I do is right,
-
As night time crumbles into yesterday
smouldering the skies in blazing sapphire,

The molten sun slips from magenta skies and feathered shadows trace across the dunes,

The wild and frenzied storm
where the opposites enmesh,
-
As he travels on a dark forsaken road
past doleful trees that clamber from the ground,
-
Like bats emerging in the twilight hours unbridled spirits flitter in my mind,
-
-
A moment resting in our happy eyes where verdant fronds hang over trembling pools,
-
Why does my heart bear love this way? like flowers born to be unseen,
-
Your palette knew not sorrow as the dark seeped through the sun,
-
Your palette knew not sorrow as the dark seeped through the sun,
-
Your palette knew not sorrow
as the dark seeped through the sun,
-
How I long to see the Highlands once again
and to wonder at their ever changing skies,
-
I can’t deny the warmth your love invites as caution fades through passion’s burning blaze,
-
Star spangled sky with sparks of living fire loading windless air and night’s deep calm,
-
I discarded old sheep’s clothing
threw off vestments of pretense,
-
Cry yourself hoarse, step up the awareness open your ears to the warnings and signs,
-
Don’t let love slip through your fingers in your palm you hold a surplus,
