"I Wanna Fall"
I wanna fall in love
on a warm breezy day.
I wanna feel it rush over me
like a soft summers haze.
I wanna look in her eyes
slowly losing my way
and feel my blood race
as her touch brushes my face.
I wanna hear her laughter
everytime I close my eyes,
to know with our voices
we'll be telling no lies.
I wanna know in my mind
and believe with my heart,
we will never part,
our love will never sway
no matter what's coming our way.
I wanna feel her beside me
on those long lonely days
and feel her curl against me
on those bleak wintry nights.
I wanna know that everything
will be all right,
knowing we have each other
with no lonliness in sight.
I wanna fall in love
on a soft breezy day.
It's just a dream now,
but maybe, just maybe
....someday.

"The Feel Of Love"
Within the mirrors of my mind,
I see the face that I adore.
I hear the padding of her feet
moving softly cross the floor.
My mind is on fire as I wake
within the night.
I feel the emptiness rush over me,
the lonliness rushing through my mind.
Then ever so softly I reach out
for this woman that I adore.
I caress her soft and tender body
with my trembling hand.
My feelings flow from me to her
so she may understand
the love I have for only her,
my lover and my friend.
We only desire each other
when together or apart.
The love we have between us
will never be captured as an art.
This love we have for one another
leaves us invisible
to others longing eyes.
We only see each other
through the distance and the miles.
With her I see only blue skies
not covered with a haze.
I touch her heart so softly
in the wanting of my gaze.
I'm in love,
Sweet and Tender
All giving in it's grace.
My life is settled now
to a very gentle pace.

"Loving and Losing"
I seek solace from this pain
that pelts my soul
like an unending rain.
The unforgiving wind
blows my emotions
from here to there,
not once giving a care.
What is this emotion
we hold so dear,
that tears us apart and
has us living in fear.
Oh! How wonderful
the feeling of joy as
we ride upon it's crest.
Only to be thrown into an
ocean of misery
which fathoms no depth.

"The Future and the Past"
We tripped the light fantastic
and soared way too soon.
We did the dance of love
beneath the dueling moons.
But when the song was over
and everyone gone home
we stood in the dreary shadows
together, yet alone.
We could talk about our better days
but they were tainted with our past.
We could blame one another
about this thing that didn't last.
I wish I knew the answers that
would bring this to an end.
They seem so very simple
lying just beneath the skin.
So, we listened to
the fanfare, the music
and the bands,
never understanding that
friendship and love
go hand in hand.
Now, we trudge upon
our chosen paths
going slowly bout our day.
Tryin oh so desperately
to forget our tainted ways.
Maybe just maybe someday
we will sit upon the grass
lauging at the things we did
and making peace with our past.
Until then I'm afraid
the answers like the blame
lie somewhere deep within.
Just beneath the surface
somewhere slightly out of grasp.
Peace..... to my love
