'Love May Never'

As morning carries
   summer breeze,
And distance coveres
   scars with ease.
Picture me
   a day so few,
That brings me back
   to warmth   and you.

When nighttime clings
   to memory,
That wears your smile
   so steadily.
I treasure even
   smallest chance,
Moon carves your face-
   And so     I dance.

Fate craved such promise
   on the wind,
To find me steady
   once again.
But dawn will break,
   and night may fall;
And love may never
   come at all.

 

 

'One More Song'

Meet my smile-
My own way home.
Days that come and go
   in the musical depths
      of time.

I cling to shadows
   of the underworld-
A hidden story
   to place me in
      the pain of denial.

Another touch
   to make me soar
      where only dreams go.
Another thought
   to take me there-
Where you rise
   to gain strength.

One more song-
One more tune
   to dance to.
One more solid walk
   on the path
      that leads home.
