She rides beside my spirit
Deep calm within the storm
Her presence surrounds me
Embraced within her arms
Just behind my eyes she fly’s
First thought that greets the day
There within the rainfall
Within the moons soft rays
Her voice, it comes upon me
Soft melody on the wind
Woven now within my soul
She strums my heartstrings low
Vibrantly she speaks to me
Touching places hid away
Tomorrows are much brighter now
As her heart resides with me

Pain so bleak my spirit weeps in lonely dying sighs
I look upon the world through torn and bloody eyes
I’ve cast aloft the essence of my lone immortal soul
Have thus returned from thee quite often less than whole
Why would thou want to touch me with intentions less than true
I’ve walked the lonely road for oh so long that nothing else will do
Ethereal kiss through moment’s bliss before lighting strikes again
Why should I learn to trust those ones to whom truth’s a common sin
You tell me time and time again you have my best at heart
But every time your work comes through you tear the world apart
Widow though you say your not although it seems to be
Every one you’ve touched so far has paid dearly just like me
The one who stand beside you are loyal to a fault
But when you see behind their eyes you ferret out the rot
How many times have I heard what soon turned out a lie
And then you have the nerve to say that Im the reason why
Why fault is fault and wrong is wrong I don’t understand
Why you cannot see the truth that on each owns a person stands
To share the load and labor of life’s often screwed up trails
Upon each other you must lean on and surely you may fail
But when that load it only flows unto thee and thou and thine
And prevaricate when payments do that is where I draw the line
I wouldn’t call you black widow, it’s true your prey survives
But everyone it seems you’ve touched their heart is what you’ve slain
So though you have your reason so often tried and true
You’ve told me way to many lies to place much faith in you
One short step and then im gone though who knows the hour due
At that finite point in time you will find it all on you.

Have you ever heard thunder on a cloudless sunny day?
Never have you heard a sound that took your breath away?
Have you ever heard the ticking of ancient timeless clock?
Then you heard the music that caused all time to stop?
When walking down the road of pain alone there came a gentle rain
Thrust through heart like daggers, releasing spirit from its chain?
I have.
Have you never touched another from a lifetime far away
With bitten lip and lilting sigh that begged to come and play
Within the core, deep inside a child lays bound to neglects lock
Silenced alone in misery while crying silent destiny is shocked
Have you ever heard the sound of life’s most cleansing rain
The crying sound of angel’s voice when she’s released from pain?
I Have

Come dance with me, in the rain
Bare of skin and shame
Under sun or pale moon
Early morn or soft twilight
Woven from the silk
Of daydreams silent webs
Cast aloft on feathers
Of hope that wasn’t said
Come play with me, lady
In a mountain stream
A still quiet pool
On by a shady dream
Laugh with me softly
In deep shadowed night
Share life with me
In the dark or light
Walk with me tomorrow
Or could be yesterday
Stroll within the memories
Of what we have to say
Sit with me in quietude
Free from soul’s solitude
Hand in hand gently
In each others arms
Come dance with me, in the rain
Of tomorrow yet unknown
Look toward the memory
Of days we haven’t yet
