Take my hand and hold it tight,
Talk to me and stay in sight,
Keep me safe and ease my fright,
Sit with me all through the night.

Sacred lotus of the Nile,
Cradle of that ancient land,
Grace me with your blessed smile,
Guide me with your godly hand.

Seeker

Is this the world I used to watch?
The world for which I gave my wings,
This place of thieves and murderers,
That once was full of precious things,

Is this the creature I've become?
The creature that I used to guard,
This species so far from my own,
That has no artist, muse, or bard,

Is this the land I used to roam?
The land for which I took an oath,
This place of hatred and disease,
That once was sacred to us both,

Is this the future that I sought?
The future that denied me youth,
This march of ever shorter days,
That takes me further from the truth.


Verse #204

Keep me in the dark of day,
keep me safe from all they say,
keep me in your ancient way,
keep me far from all their prey.

Verse #203

Free my mind from all the pain,
Cleanse my heart with holy rain,
Make my doubt and hate refrain,
Teach me how to love again,

Verse #202

Put my body to the test,
Pit my mind against the best,
Show me freedom not in jest,
Send me home so I can rest.

Verse #200

Let your love grow like a flower,
Take a petal for each wrong,
Feed it each and every hour,
Keep it ever growing strong.


Garden on Life

Plant your love just like a seed,
Nurture it with each good deed,
Show it light through hope and truth,
Care for it throughout its youth,


Distance those who would devour,
Cherish each and every flower,
Save the leaves of colder years,
Wash them clean with your own tears,


Remember right and forgive wrong,
Keep the stem forever strong,
One day that seed will be a tree,
The fruit of love for all to see.

Verse #199

When darkness takes its bitter hold,
and life has left you in the cold,
I'll share my light and keep you warm,
Together braced against the storm.


Verse #198

Turn the page to something new,
Our story now in chapter two,
Another challenge we must face,
To reach that ending we still chase.

Verse #197

Send a message out of hell,
Ringing out that fateful bell,
From the place where heroes fell,
Following that mournful knell.

Verse #196

Something there yet out of sight,
Somewhere close just out of reach,
Somehow watching from the night,
Someone waiting for a breach.

DestiNot

Hot with passion,
Cold with shame,
Beauty with a secret name,


Sun by day,
And star by night,
Kiss so sweet but far from right,


Love and laughter,
Fear and doubt,
Strangers to the world about,


Light and dark,
Two souls one heart,
Doomed before they even start.


Verse #195

Share a piece of love with me,
Help me end this misery,
Spare a thought for what could be,
Help me find eternity.

Verse #194

The rain not far ahead today,
A pain inside my head today,
My brain still in the red today,
Disdain for all you've said today.

Verse #193

Dark heart in the light so bright,
Old heart young again in flight,
Cold heart warming up alright,
Half heart whole again tonight.

Siren

Tell me more about your art,
Only you know what to say,
Read to me right from the heart,
In your voice I'll find the way.

Answer me with just your eyes,
Make me feel alive today,
On a journey through the skies,
Sailing in the blue and gray.

Show the magic of your dance,
Once the curtains have been raised,
Never miss or lose the chance,
Grace my life and long be praised.


Verse #192

Walk with me through all we've seen,
Talk me through all that we've been,
Take away each nagging doubt,
Make a choice to work this out.

Verse #191

Sing the sweetest song to me,
dance when only I can see,
paint our love from fantasy,
make us all that we could be.

Verse #190

Drain away my blood and tears,
Separate me from my fears,
Take away all my desires,
Cast my heart into the fires.


Shadow of Love

Watching as you walk on by,
Wanting just to catch your eye,
Needing you to help me fly,
Trying hard to smile not cry,

Wishing that you could be mine,
Waiting for the bells to chime,
Dreaming of those eyes that shine,
Thinking of you all the time,

Walking through life's busy throng,
Wondering if I've got this wrong,
Living with your ghost so long,
Drifting in this love so strong.

Verse #189

As every night must follow day,
so every heart will find a way,
for every soul to have it's say,
that true love will forever stay.

Verse #188

I walk this land of ghosts by day,
Without you near to light my way,
I blend in with the pale and gray,
My heart and soul with you will stay.

Heart in Hand

Hold my hand and share this night,
Stay right here- always in sight,
Keep me in your loving arms,
Protect me from all of my qualms,


Hold my hand and light my way,
Stay right here- be mine today,
Keep me with you for all time,
Share with me this life sublime,


Hold my hand and walk with me,
Stay right here- don't let me be,
Keep me in your heart and mind,
Don't let my soul be left behind.


Verse #187

Blend to what they want to see,
Bend to what they want to be,
Spend all that is left of me,
Send all that can set you free.

Soul Cage

Make me happy,
Make me sad,
Make me all that gets you mad,


Give me colour,
Give me shape,
Give me wings for my escape,


Take my essence,
Take my heart,
Take my image in your art,


Keep me captive,
Keep me whole,
Keep me framed in your control.


Verse #186

Keep the sun upon your back,
Don't get lost in all you lack,
Keep moving on the path you've set,
Please don't forgot all those you've met.

Before the Now

Thinking back on all I've seen,
On all the pain and joy that's been,
Everything that has brought me here,
Through all the times of hope and fear,

Thinking of all that I've known,
The good and bad that I've been shown,
All that has taught me wrong from right,
Through darkest day and darker night,

Thinking back on all I've done,
On all the journeys I've begun,
Everything that has shaped my mind,
Through all that has been left behind,

Thinking of my life thus far,
Each battle that has left a scar,
This future I could never see,
Through shadows of what could not be,

Thinking on to times ahead,
Of all that I no longer dread,
The life that I have come to know,
This love I hope will ever grow.

Verse #185

Reach into my aching heart,
sing to me your broken song,
share the beauty of your art,
stay with me and make me strong.


Friday, March 04, 2011

Verse #184

Think of all that you despise,
see the world through different eyes,
greet the world in your disguise,
let each insight be your prize.

Verse #183

Walk the lands of empires lost,
Hear the cries of battles fought,
Feel the weight of human cost,
Find the peace those brave men sought.
