Your final farewell

Your last goodbye,
Wrapped in a box.
Mailed to our hearts,
Goodbye, goodbye.
Filled with gifts,
That mean the world.
They bring back memories,
To which we hold so dear.

A teary eye and a healing heart,
This brings you back again.
Never will I forget those times
around Christmas time each year.
The open arms and heart you had,
Made each time I saw you so magic.
Though now you're gone,
It's hard to not cry.
Because I love you,
and miss you - my dear.

Save Our Souls - Love Depends On Life

Dipping the feather in ink,
He crafts a poem of love.
Every word he writes,
Is the world.

He wipes the tears away,
The ink starts to smudge.
A man made on pure emotion,
He decided to talk no more.

Words were his life,
But speaking was not.
Writing with such passion,
Writing with such love.

He tells her a story,
Of a broken, broken man.
Who gave his heart to a woman,
In the form of daises and roses.

He spoke of a perfect world,
That was just of her and he.
That this world was the truth,
That lived inside of she.

He then spoke of harsh times,
And dipped the feather again.
He took a breath of uneasiness,
And wrote the passage of love.

He spoke of crashing waves,
and a rusty cage.
He spelled out heartache,
As if he was to blame.

His desperate heart suffocated,
As the love he gave was black.
He set out on a journey of love,
And came back a man of despair.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.
His mind drew a blank.
He never knew the right words to say,
But regardless, this is what he wrote:

"Oh inside,
You feel like needles.
Woman how could you do this to me?
Oh captain,
Who is your captain?
Who hears you crying?
It's okay to cry"

In the air is more than mist

I'll leave my footsteps on the horizon,
and disappear without a sound.
The clouds gather overhead and black,
Cemetery weather.
If I walk all day,
and survive the night.
Maybe something will come,
For those who have nothing to live for.

Bury my conscience,
Under the white owl of night.
The universe shouts to me,
"Come closer to me, my son"
So the present time is nothing,
And the future is something.
The light in the dark is seeping through,
Maybe there is something for me.
Tonight.

You can't run from the truth.

I've got a bad feeling,
My stomach fucking sinks.
Another swig from the bottle,
Another part of me has drowned.

Stumbling, I makes the bathroom.
The mirror shows no reflection.
A soulless man is what I've become,
and I sold it to the bottle.

A broken man cries gin,
In a shaking world he can no longer stand.
The walls bleed mercy,
He can't connect to the real word any more.

He tells myself,
"Just one more drink".
And three days later,
Awakens from a drunken coma.

Pity myself, but my sympathy from those around me.
I used to call them family,
Now they're a vivid, hazy memory.
In happier times, we used to smile.

I used to be a role model,
And made the children smile.
Now I'm lucky to see them,
Now they're lucky they don't see me.

He threatens them all,
With curses and violence.
He blames them all for his problems,
She sinks to her knees and cries mascara.

He leaves the house in a typical fashion.
Car keys in hand,
and sits behind the wheel.
Death do us part.
Death do us part.

This is not a Bobby Darin song.

Drag me down to the bottom of the ocean,
Where life is so quiet.
Take me there, with a smile on your face.
Take me there today.

Tell my friends I'm down below,
Tell them to keep it a secret.
When the time is right I'll come back up,
And whisper I missed you, my dear.

Every breath I take of water,
Brings me closer to happiness.
I fall to the bottom of the blue,
And I do not open my eyes.

In the depths of the calm ocean,
I lay fulfilled tonight.
With a smile on my face, and mystery in the air,
Who has ended my life?

'arina!

Her colour lights up my world,
She turns up the brightness whenever she's around.
It's as soft as silk, her hair.
I run my fingers delicately through it when we kiss.

Eyes, so crystal blue and caring
Every time I gaze upon them, I can see the bottom of the ocean
The calm sea in her eye reassures me,
That everything will be fine.

A smile sends butterflies crazy,
Fluttering their wings like crazy inside me.
It sends me into hysterics,
Every time she smiles blissfully at me.

Lips, so sweet and soft.
Every kiss, a moment in perfection.
Every kiss, I want to last a second longer.
Her lips, her lips, her lips.

Her wacky sense of humour,
The way she makes me laugh.
Everything about this girl,
Is worth every second.

Water for oxygen

Hands bound at the wheel,
Here we go again.
A drive down to the ocean,
And we'll be on our way.
A satanic smile and a laughter of greed.
You're taking me away with the seven seas.
Sailing on doubt and malicious intent.
Incapable of knowing wrong from right.
Two lives go down the drain, tonight....

Bon Voyage, Mr. Bones.

I stand below you,
Arms out and waiting.
For you to bless me with rain.
Douse me in life,
Free me from sin.
Unleash from the heavens above,
An almighty wraith.
Drench us in water,
Drain all our souls.
Wash away our lives tonight,
And make us all suffer today.

Life Lessons And Wise Words Of The Unfaithful

Maybe I wasn't made for this world,
Emptiness, I sit as a shadow, alone.
Overwhelmed, bowed head; crushed.
Life is a battle, and we're dying every day,
Friends never given the light of day.
Destroyed, mentally and physically.
They lie around me, monochrome and lifeless.
Grey, black, white with an eerie tint of red.
Words are muted,
Any cry for help, silenced.
Maybe if I knew something about love.
And maybe if I called God's name,
There would be an end to all suffering.
If only, if only
The suffering would end.
I wish I could turn back to those nights,
and just stay home.
Now, with thoughts unclear.
And unanswered questions,
Because I just don't understand.


For Action And Adventure

Life, so rewarding, so meaningful.
Life, something we all need to cherish.
Make the most of the days you have,
Make every day count,
Make every day count.
You can't live life from your bed sheets.
That's not living at all.
Make people smile,
Make people laugh.
Become life its self.
The gift we all share is something forever,
The gift we all share is a marvellous journey.
Never give up on life.
Be there for the people who love you,
With grace, live with out regrets.
Be the person you want to be because,
You can't live life from your bed sheets.
