Fall's Peace

lay your head down tonight
close your pretty blue eyes
take in a deep breath
and turn down the light

let your mind run free
forget about the current day
listen to these words
let them take you away

the trees are turning
the grass lay under your shoe
the fall air surrounds your skin
the dim light shines on you

take in the crisp airs
nuggle deeper into your coat
let the soft drizzle soak you
let the fall air cover your throat

stand still in time
let the leaves fall around you
forget the problems outside
the conflict inside you

feel yourself floating
like the leaves trickling to your toe
close your eyes and find yourself
wrapped in fall's glow

run your hands through your hair
knock the loose leaves away
feel the peace inside your heart
as the falling leaves sway

take one more look around
take a deep breath and release
smile as you know i'm smiling
sleep tonight in fall's peace

Time Moves Too Slow To Wait

We say take our time
let things move slow
but the tick of the clock
just allows feelings to grow

Set time in the distance
and wait for time to pass by
maybe the rush will fade
by the time I see your eye

Let the minutes roll on
adding to hours by then
if the feeling only rises
what do I do then

Can't wait for the words
that have been holding me up all day
Longing to see what I've already heard
the words that took my sadness away

I don't want long distance
and I'm not asking for much
I don't need to go too deep
I would settle for just a touch

Counting the hours
until your face becomes real
the unbelievable connection
that our words have made us feel

Your voice echoes in my head
I say your words again and again
How can I explain to him
the clouds you put me in

It's only been an hour
but it feels like it's been years
How do I tell him that in this time
it was you who took away my tears

There's too many syllables in an hour
too many breaths in timeless fate
words in timeless air can't explain this
time moves too slow to wait

Forbidden Fruit

kisses on your chest
my lips follow your trail
my strength stands up
I'm no longer frail

we've told him we can love
the past wont hold us anymore
my fingers want to clutch your skin
as our naked bodies warm the floor

sweat trickles off your nose
onto my already salty lip
your hand through my hair
my hips clutched in your grip

I can feel your trembling legs
as the radio blares my apology
your hand rolls over my face
as you lay your seed in me

your lips shaking with my hip
sour bodies shivering in the ecstasy
you are the first heart to make love
to the whole soul in me

kiss at the door
now it's time to explain
that with the other hearts
there is too much pain

promise to see me tonight
clutching onto ourselves again so tight
promise me I will feel you again
we can make love in the middle of the night

time to leave

i want to run away
forget all the damn pain
emotional and physical
i can feel my blood drain

he says this and he tries that
i'm in the middle of the track
tied to the railway lost
and i can't find my way back

the old is escaping, the new is raping
i can't let go of it all
i've never been so damn lonely
yet i don't want no one at all

he tells me this, he tells me that
i don't even know what to believe
so i pack up what little is left in my head
and i say it's a fine time to leave

i can't make the past come back
if the memories keep running away
i can't make myself love you again
so i say it's a fine time to walk away

i pack my baggage, i've got a ton
all the bad seems to follow
but the good burrows down
so now i walk away stripped and hollow

walk out the door, wont see you no more
i'll have to find pain in another day
it wont be too damn hard
pain is the one thing that always finds its way

turn around for one more look
what's it matter it'll be gone tomorrow
i lost all that i built and all that i loved
yet you say it's your deepest sorrow

every step that i walk today
tomorrow i will lose a few
so if you think the pain will follow me
i guess i pulled another one over on you

i walk away with your heart in my pocket
or so you say you believe
i don't know who i am-much less you
so i say it's a fine time to leave

I Know His Name Is

You were walking one way
I walked sad and quietly
love pushed forces
and you crashed into me

Our eyes danced to each other
hands gravitated to cheek
our thighs melted together
defenses of love fell weak

Smiles glimmered in unison
fingers locked in twisted bliss
thoughts joined in union
as lips got lost in kiss

Fate was walking our way
destiny snuck in to see
love splattered on the concrete
when you crashed into me

Stranded At Shore

We rode the tidal wave
kissed on the shore
walked in the miles of sand
enjoyed the site of the ocean core

We watched the seagulls fly
basked in the hope of being free
held each other in the summer's heat
swam in kisses passionately

We looked over the beach
on even the coolest night
it would of been easy to scatter
it only pulled the hold more tight

Salt water tickled our toe
sand filled hair would dry
love splashed against our skin
we fell asleep to the sea shell cry

Waves are at high tide
different sand is in between our toe
grey skies have taken over
our cheeks moonlit glow

Waves carried us away
I sit on my beach towel alone
some beaches have better shores
how could we have known

Take Me Home

Someone take me home
it's too dark out here
I feel like a little girl lost
my cold chills are full of fear

My heart knows the way
but my head wont lead me there
I know I have someone I love
and someone who loves me fair

I can feel it when I say his name
I cry when I know he's near me
I get nervous thinking about us together
I know he hides somewhere in my memory

I sit by the only tree
in this dark forest that's been my stay
I wonder what it's like to sleep in safe bed
Joey wont you come take me away

In my heart I know it's him
the name never leaves my lip
I fall back and sleep on the tree
smiling as I think I feel his grip

I dream about by my side
trying to shield me from the cold
I wake up in the hopes you are there
but only my own hand is there to hold

This nightmare is the big dark forest
the feared ground is where I lay
hoping the trees will hide me from
whatever he's mad about today

He says you are the reason
my skin is bruised head to toe
he says my love should be for him
and not the love I feel for Joe

Now I lay and wait for your sight
I must of forgot to say I love you
my memory leaves me so much
and I forget where to direct it to

I may not hold your face
in the palm of my hand
but you have never left my heart
and that's what he can't understand

I don't know your whereabouts
I only know your name, Joey
I know the unclaimed love inside
says the love in your name is saving me

I'm by the big oak tree
the one who needs a little love
he's not bad inside
he just forgot all he's made of

I will sit quietly in the forest
holding onto to the tree I'm beside
The bruises will go away Joey
the pain will run and hide

Take me out of the dark forest
we'll nurture the big tree too
We'll give it all the sun it needs
and we both can come back to you

Maybe my mind is playing tricks again
I don't know if this love is actually true
but the tears falling right now tell me
Joey I'm still in love with you

Window Pain

I'm staring out the window
the rain is pouring down softly
I lean my head on the cold glass
wonder if you are thinking of me

I can see the puddles forming
the drops splashing to create flood
The kids going to school stop
to play in the created mud

I feel overwhelming sadness
I wish I could laugh like they do
I can't even manage a smile
unless I daydream of finding you

I can hear the raindrops ping the glass
it's soft and comforting for awhile
My heart flutters thinking of you
wherever you are you just made me smile

The glass is starting to fog over
my breath forms the clouded haze
I wonder if this miserable sadness
fills all of my given days

I run my finger on the window
I let my fingers make their own way
I don't even think about its path
I watch as a designed fog is lifted away

I watch as the water condensation falls
from the written letters I have left to see
I lift my sad eyes off the glass
window teardrops from the name Joey

Drive Me Home Joey

Where are you now
can you tell me what to do
because this heart just can't seem
to get over you

I call out your name
there's no answer
I try to think back
my memory is a blur

I went to your house
who knows how long it's been empty
maybe my mind likes playing
these tricks on me

I picked up the phone
no number for you
I called information but with only Joey
there's nothing they could do

You said you would drive me home
but I'm still standing on the corner
my lips mouthing your name
and my insides in a stir

I know we had our first dance
because you sang it to me
and I know we've visited
the sheets romantically

I know you said to me
I would never be alone
I know inside it feels like
you're the greatest love I've known

So where are you now
when I need you so bad
am I only imagining
all that we had

I'm standing on the corner
waiting for my ride
You said you'd always be there
I can feel it deep inside

I'll wait here forever
with you beating inside of me
I know you will drive me home
Until then I'll love you quietly

Tears, Passion, Love

Pain in the discovery
words fall from lip
tear taste on tongue
flesh in our tight grip

Salt water forming
slipping under our tongue
experience no longer sits
in written songs sung

Hands clutch tight
holding on to words of past
throbbing insides exploding
gripping onto all that can last

Tears on finger spread
scrape down fielded chest
sweaty tongue lay it's flag
on perfumed breast

Forgive my soul for where I go
words moaned in heat
Force blends the salty tears
love splattered on silk sheet

Fingers clutch
in sweat and tear
hold me on out of breath chest
never leave here

Lips tangle in quiver
tears mix upon guilty face
Lips slip down to forbidden
soaked fingertips embrace

Let me stay here forever
in thigh where I lay
Hand on lip, face buried
tears mix where honey lay

Eyes of pain slide to lip
lips hold in locked ally
fingertips dig deep
the harder the cry

Words now spoken
rid of guilt in tongue
tonight lyrics fall
a new song is sung

Take the faithful
leave me if it's needed of
I lay on beaded sweaty chest
huddle in Tears, passion, and love

For You Joey:)

The Trail To My Heart

My mind may forget
the details that fill my soul
sometimes it makes me forget
all that makes me whole

Your name may slip my tongue
your words may leave my ear
your face may leave my stare blank
your touch may bring me fear

I may want to be alone
time with you may bring fear
it will leave us broken
leave you once again in tear

We know this will happen
it's been played out before
my details escape my brain
there's no memories to store

But one thing never changes
the beating of my heart
the flutters when I hear your strange name
knowing I miss someone when we are apart

The need to put myself at your door
even though I can't recall who you are
the urge to hold your picture to my chest
and never let the thought of you get too far

The constant reminders of you
that I never want to let go of
knowing my heart is full of something
and I'm almost sure it is love

The constant ease I feel
whenever we talk in conversation
the tingles that fill my memory lost skin
the fluttering heart sensation

The trail from the mind to the heart
seems so short in medical theory
but the head and heart are miles away
when my love for you leaves with my memory

My head loses the times we had together
but my heart holds you dear
even if my senses don't know it
my heart holds and keeps you near

My head holds our memories
they will leave me from time to time it's true
but you never leave my heart
my heart holds the love I have for you

So when my memory escapes
don't cry or hurt in worry
just follow the trail to my heart
and you will see you are still there Joey
