Dreaming Of You

Hold me close,
Breathe me in.
Let me fall,
Into this sin.

Say three words,
And kiss my lips,
All my wounds,
You wish to fix.

Call my name,
Say it right.
Keep holding my hand,
Grasp it tight.

Steal my heart,
It is yours,
False perfection,
Full of flaws.

Take my face,
Into your hands,
Pull me even deeper,
Into my dream land.

Time knows no limits,
It's flawless and unengaged,
It makes me forget all the wars,
That in my mind rage.

I'm aware this is a dream,
It's too good to be true,
Because here I am standing,
I'm standing here without you.

Promise

Hold me tight before you leave
I can't promise I'll let go
So walk quickly so I won't see
I can't promise I won't follow
Say goodbye before we part
I can't promise I won't cry
So save those words before you start
I can only promise I'll try
Wave to me as you fade away
I can't promise I'll be strong
So go now and come back some day
I can't promise I won't come along
Try to be happy wherever you are
I can't promise I will too
So leave now but don't go too far
I promise I'll come to you

The Best Autumn Of Mine

I'm holding in my fingers a single leaf of hope
the autumn breeze brought it here
it slipped from the Oaks fingers like it didn't want to cope

The autumn breeze is flowing
It wants to run away
From the fact that is showing
that winter wants to come and play

Paint on the canvas colors of golden brown and scarlet red
Then have your work be stolen
All the autumn colors fled
.
Flip another page, in December it will freeze
Set on whitening the color gold
A child with a jump rope standing in the breeze
Slowly watching as frost bites all in natures hold
.
Cover all the leaves
Come play with the winter
See what it conceives
.
And something very lost
Scarlet and brown
Sticking out of the frost
I reach down and pluck a leaf that was embedded it the ground
.
Maybe not all is lost and autumn can still shine
Right now I will treasure it- Pin it on the wall
and claim it the best autumn of mine
