Verse #687

and if we fail at this attempt our time on Earth is done.

Verse #686

With the light of dawn we find a new resolve to live,
a purpose long forgotten and a reason to forgive,

And so with Christmas been and gone the year draws to an end,
the love and joy we've shared have helped the rifts of time to mend,
and so we ready for another year to come about,
to brace ourselves with hope and peace against all fear and doubt.

Verse #684

Christmas comes but once a year,
a time of joy- not greed nor fear,
so gather all your loved ones near,
and share the gift of Christmas cheer.

Verse #683

The time we have upon this earth is short and fading fast,
the future waits for no one and the present cannot last,
all that has been is over and forever in the past,
so treasure all that life can give and let the die be cast.

Verse #682

Family is more than blood- more than genetic ties,
family is love and truth- not avarice and lies,

One more kiss before I go,
one more time just so you know,
one more day til we are one,
one more cycle of the sun.

the clock is ever counting down towards our final date.

We travel far and wide to make our mark upon this land,
to prove that we existed and that none of this was planned,
yet even as we strive to disregard the hand of fate,
the clock is ever counting down towards our final date.

Verse #679

We search for higher meaning in the stories of the past,
our future selves indebted to the memories that last,
we shape our lives around the thoughts and dreams of greater men,
in hopes that through our actions they may somewhat live again.

Verse #678

Pushing through the barriers of tiredness again,
fighting to commit once more despite all of the pain,
no time to sit and wonder what the effort has been for,
forever marching forward digging deeper to give more.

Verse #677

When you are at your weakest and this life has drained you dry,
though pain may come and hope may go and you may fall and cry,
just think of what you have achieved through all the battles fought,
and with some luck you'll find the end is sooner than you thought.

Verse #676

You are my light in darkest day,
my shelter through the coldest night,
though hardships may obscure our way,
the love we share glows ever bright.

Verse #675

Hold my hand and clear away the frost upon my heart,
kiss my cheek and promise me that we will never part,
walk with me through snowy fields and winter's cold embrace,
stand with me through all the pain and hardship that we'll face.

Verse #674

It's easy to get lost in life and caught up in routine,
so simple to lose track of time and everywhere we've been,
but fate will soon remind us of the people we forget,
and take away all that we love to leave naught but regret.

Verse #673

Fallen leaves on scattered frost,
broken dreams and chances lost,
silent tears on hallowed ground,
chapter closed and closure found.

Verse #672

And so we start another day,
another chance to make our way,
our time to take that final stand,
to make a play for all we've planned.

Verse #671

When all the words have left you and you've nothing left to say,
when all that life can give you is another boring day,
when all that you can hope for is to simply fade away,
just know that you are not alone and we've all felt this way.

Verse #670

Maturity is not a given as we grow in age,
reality will seldom be the truth we'd like to see,
experience is more than simply words upon a page,
in the end the the mission matters more than you or me.

Verse #669

Sometimes our own convictions can distract us from the truth,
a fatal flaw in all mankind not just a thing of youth,
to rise above the chaos and discover what is true,
can only be achieved through someone else's point of view.

Verse #668

Our lot in life is seldom based on anything we do,
although it can influenced just by our point of view,
our force of will is evident in all that we achieve,
but ultimately luck decides all that we will receive.

Verse #667

Through the dark of night into the frozen light of day,
we walk the world united in the words of love we say,
forever joined as one against the forces of despair,
contented with my lot in life because you're always there.

Verse #666

There are no demons darker than the shadows in our heart,
no angels as magnificent as those we show in art,
no gods of greater virtue than our noblest of kin,
no beasts more base to wear this brand than we who live in sin.

Verse #665

Times are ever changing as the earth forever turns,
life will keep evolving as the Sun forever burns,
though each new day to us may seem to start and end the same,
it's all part of a greater plan in this immortal game.

Love is like a dream we share,
a place where hope can fill the air,
a treasured gift and one so rare,
a paradise for those who dare.

Verse #663

When sleep has long abandoned us and no one else is near,
we stare into the dark of night to find what brought us here,
we think back on all that we've done and everything we fear,
and hope that with the light of day the future will come clear.

Verse #662

We seldom see the future through the haze of our past deeds,
so caught up in our modern lives and all our carnal needs,
our bodies given nourishment while slowly our soul bleeds,
salvation slipping further every time the demon feeds.

Verse #661

Our lives are ever peppered with the debris of the past,
the good we've done forgotten though the bad still seems to last,
the repercussion cycle may not seem to be that fast,
but in the end the house wins when our final die is cast.

Verse #660

The sun shines through the haze of doubt within her clouded mind,
the path now clear in front of her with darkness far behind,

the future waiting just ahead for her to find relief.

Standing in the darkness at the edge of space and time,
dreaming of the love we shared in life once so sublime,
falling now forever in the shadow of the soul,
losing all that once was me to this dark realm's control.

Verse #658

Fear is our great enemy forever on the prowl,
the reaper of our hopes and dreams complete with cloak and cowl,
we fight against its dominance in each and every day,
in hopes that we can conquer it or keep it's scythe at bay.

Verse #657

And so begins another day,
we put all carefree thoughts away,
to work again but not to play,
or so we are supposed to say.

just counting down the seconds as the fire starts to burn,
we close our eyes in this embrace to overcome our fear,
and bid farewell to all we know and all that brought us here.

Verse #655

Though the wind grows colder and the outlook ever bleak,
you are my sacred shelter and the solace that I seek,
no matter where we end up nor how dark the world may seem,
you're always there to comfort me and share this lover's dream.

Verse #654

Love is an enigma and a riddle none can solve,
something that we all can have but none of us can own,
both torment and salvation in a war with no resolve,
but ever is it worth the fight so we are not alone.

Verse #653

Start your life again today,
keep the pain and tears at bay,
make a plan and go your way,
change your lot and seize the day.

Verse #652

Life is ever changing though it always looks the same,
love is all around us though we may not know it's name,
faith is all encompassing but first to take the blame,
hope is ever challenged as we strive to win this game.

Verse #651

They fought for truth and freedom,
for life and for their kingdom,
they gave their lives with no regret,
to save us all- lest we forget.

Verse #650

She wakes within the shadows of a jounrey now complete,
her heart upon the ancient scales in judgement for deceit,
as demons call out to her in a chorus of conceit,
the feather tilts the scales towards the darkness of defeat.

Verse #649

We walk a path defined by fate,
our choices set in all but date,
the truth discovered far too late,
so naive in this mortal state.

Verse #648

Winter sun shine down on me,
thaw my heart and set me free,
guide me in your ancient way,
give me light and life today.

Verse #647

Love is made of many parts,
built from all our broken hearts,
reliant on both truth and trust,
but weakened by abuse or lust.

Verse #646

Run your fingers through her hair,
whisper just how much you care,
hold her heart and touch her soul,
share your love and make her whole.

Verse #645

Shine the light of hope upon the darkness of this day,
take my doubt away with all the comfort in your smile,
warm my frozen soul with every word of love you say,
share your heart with me as we walk the final mile.

Verse #644

The days we share will come and go,
our time will end before we know,
but as our hearts are joined in love,
our souls will live on high above.

Life Players

The games we play 'tween me and you,
defined by all we have been through,
our wants pervert each oath we make,
our needs defend each rule we break.

The nights we spend 'tween me and you,
desired by all we thought we knew,
our bodies locked in dark embrace,
our hearts abandoned in disgrace.

The words we say 'tween me and you,
defiled by all we feel and do,
our souls corrupted by each lie,
our dreams disrupted as we cry.

The life we share 'tween me and you,
defaced by all we hang on to,
our bond nought but a fantasy,
our love nothing but fallacy.

Verse #642

The games we play 'tween me and you,
defined by what we have been through,
for all we say and all we do,
in each new lie is something true.

Verse #641

Cold chill in the air around,
morning dew still on the ground,
sun as yet cannot be found,
autumn leaves the only sound.

The time is now- the die is cast,
the day is here- our chance at last,
we stand prepared- our weapons raised,
the battle joined- our gods be praised.

Verse #638

She looks back at the distant sky,
remembering the days gone by,
the lives she's shared and love she's known,
the things she's learnt and how she's grown.

Verse #637

When darkness overshadows all the good you've ever done,
when hope seems lost and faith falls short in what life has begun,
when doubt takes hold and days feels bleak without a sense of fun,
my love will find you once again just like the rising sun.

Verse #636

I've stood upon the cliff and stared into the rising sun,
I've watched as mother nature thrives and new life is begun,
I've seen the soul of man and all the wonders he can do,
and still the greatest sight I've seen is waking next to you.

Verse #635

Our lives are never balanced as the scales are all askew,
with trials and tribulations that we're ever working through,
we work to live and live to work in hopes of something new,
and sacrifice all that we love for what we have to do.

Samishii

The days grow ever shorter,
The nights forever long,
The shadows of the past return to sing their tortured song.

The past never forgotten,
The future bare and bleak,
The dream of love died suddenly in one ill-fated week.

The years a lonesome battle,
The pain too much to bear,
The road has brought him to a place that no one else can share.

The further he has travelled,
The more he's felt the loss,
The guilt a cold reminder each time he sees a cross.

The time now fast approaching,
The journey near its end,
The damage far beyond the realms of hope or faith to mend.

The panic slowly fading,
The cut is warm and deep,
The voices calling out to him to close his eyes and sleep.

The final pages turning,
The ending almost sweet,
The darkness brings him peace at last upon that silent street.

Verse #634

Together we will stand and together will we fall,
our lives now joined as one in answer to love's call,
united we will be against the world and all its hate,
our souls entwined forever more to share our given fate.

Verse #633

These precious moments that we share,
curled up and safe without a care,
just wishing that the clock would slow,
or stop so I'd not have to go.

Love Elucidation

Love is born and starts to grow,
Beyond all ways our hearts could know,
Though times may change and youth may go,
True love shines now and ever so.

Love is blind and without fear,
Beyond all doubt and ever dear,
Though hard to see it's ever near,
In every smile and each warm tear.

Love is deeper than the sea,
Beyond all realms that we could see,
The force that binds and sets us free,
Reserved for those like you and me.

Verse #632

The ones we love stay in our heart,
no matter what life puts us through,
though fate may cause our paths to part,
it cannot stop me loving you.

Verse #631

Darkened skies across in her mind,
this cloak of shadows leaves her blind,
alone and lost amongst her kind,
the light love so hard to find.

Verse #630

The future lies in front of you for all the world to see,
your chance to make your mark in life and be all you can be,
so take a stand against the hate and never let love flee,
and in the end when all is done your soul will be set free.

Verse #629

Freedom is not free and is not won without a fight,
love is but a privilege and not a given right,
peace is not a state in which our species can exist,
hope is but a dream that our poor hearts cannot resist.

Hikari

She has no fear of monsters,
That dwell beneath her bed,
Nor all the other creatures,
That haunt her fragile head.

She has no sense of danger,
To tell her when to stop,
Not shy of any stranger,
That life may chance to drop.

She has no thought of weakness,
To block this show of force,
Nor will she let the darkness,
Divert her from her course.

Verse #628

Life will bend and break you as it orchestrates your fall,
love will never find you if fail to hear it's call,
hope will up and leave you if your faith should ever stall,
only you can fight this war and stand to claim it all.

Verse #627

It seems this world's insanity,
and all of this profanity,
despite all positivity,
are just facts of reality.

Verse #626

Stand tall before eternity with all you have to give,
take stock of your own destiny so you can learn to live,
break free from cold obscurity through all you have achieved,
give thanks in true humility for all you have received.

Forever Darkly

Though sunshine floats above her head and warms her loving kin,
this cold chill ever stays with her deep down beneath her skin,
their smiles and cheerful laughter seem beyond her mortal reach,
this darkness eating at her heart has harsher things to teach. 

Though fate has often kept her from the hardships of her kind,
her path has long been plagued by tears for those she left behind,
the love she's felt is transient and changes with the tide,
this fear however stays with her forever at her side.

Though stars have tried to light her way through all those lonely times,
the shadows still call out to her and panic ever climbs,
these thoughts are always present keeping her in their control,
this sorrow ever fills her mind and drains her weary soul.

Verse #625

Hope is everlasting in all that we could desire,
faith is our salvation from the threat of hell's dark fire,
love is ever changing but forever is it true,
life is for the living and a gift for me and you.

Verse #624

Though it may have been the summer of our nation's discontent,
the autumn that has followed is not one we should resent,
for soon the winter chill will give all us cause to repent,
and in the spring our hearts at last may show their true intent.

Verse #623

Give life to all your dreams through all the love inside your heart,
take charge of all you are to give yourself a brand new start,
look back on where you've been to find the way for you to go,
with faith and hope your future will begin before you know.

Verse #622

Love is but a mystery,
the muse of ancient history,
defined by myth and fantasy,
to bring both pain and ecstasy.

Verse #621

Encumbered by this simple thought that every second counts,
in every moment that you waste the pressure simply mounts,
the clock forever taking back each second that you’ve saved,
as life prevents you reaching for the peace you’ve always craved.

Verse #620

Time is ever moving- like ripples in a stream,
each moment quickly fading- like memories from a dream,
we fight to keep the order- some semblance of control,
but time will soon betray us- and lay claim to our soul.

Verse #619

Just leave the pain and hurt behind,
a new world waits for us to find,
our time to claim all we’ve been sold,
before our hopes and dreams go cold.

Verse #618

Morning sun please cleanse my soul,
free my mind from night's control,
make the pain and fear dissolve,
and strengthen me in my resolve.

Verse #617

Close your eyes and calm your mind,
go up to where they cannot find,
then spread your wings and join your kind,
and leave this broken world behind.

Verse #616

We'll overcome all we've been told,
and keep the fire from goIng cold,
with hearts entwIned and hands to hold,
we'll walk this road til we grow old.

Verse #615

With these eyes I look toward a day still yet to be,
with these dreams I plan for all the world will come to see,
with these hands I build a life of love for you and me,
with these words I share all that in time will set us free.

Verse #614

The dawnlight pulls me from my dreams,
back to a world less real it seems,
where hope is not in man's remit,
and life is spent not living it.

Verse #613

Darkness slowly drifting in,
fire burning in her skin,
hunger clawing at her mind,
prey aplenty in mankind.

Verse #612

She smiles toward the new dawn's skies,
her future now before her eyes,
a heart that seemed could never heal,
until she found true love made real.

Verse #612

She smiles toward the new dawn's skies,
her future now before her eyes,
a heart that seemed could never heal,
until she found true love made real.

Verse #611

Escaping to this world of yore,
resplendent in our tales of lore,
we reign in peace and lead in war,
to share a dream of something more.

Verse #610

Don't be fooled by what you see each time she shows her smile,
beneath that mask lies years of pain she's hiding all the while,
a web of scars that mark the path of who she's come to be,
a cloud that over shadows her and all her heart can see.

Verse #609

When all is said and long been done,
when hope fades like the setting sun,
when time slips by without a care,
just know my love will still be there.

Verse #608

In the silence of dawn on this September morn,
she thinks back on her life to those long distant days,
just watching the spot where the sun is reborn,
and still hoping there's time to feel warmth in its rays.

Verse #607

We stand now on the brink of a new and brighter time,
the dawn of hope and glory and the end of pain and crime,
we have all that we need to repair this damaged land,
it only takes a moment if we all can make a stand.

Verse #606

Take control of who you are and what you can become,
no one else can set your path or say how far you've come,
you'll no doubt learn from others as you try to make your way,
but in the end it's only you who has the final say.

Verse #605

You are the air I breathe each day,
you're in each word I have to say,
you give me strength and never sway,
you're part of me in every way.

Verse #604

She sat upon the cliffside in a haze of memories,
her head lost in a daze of ancient lore and fantasies,
her heartbeat racing faster in the winter morning breeze,
her soul released and soaring free above the snow-topped trees.

Verse #603

We face the coming dawn with a sense of trepidation,
concerned about the past or a tainted reputation,
these thoughts distract us from the point of real contemplation,
that all we need to think of is the question of salvation.

Verse #602

We all are born with half a heart,
a puzzle missing just one piece,
forever searching for that part,
so that our souls can rest in peace.

Verse #601

Gold horizon turning blue,
stars are fading in the hue,
life awakes to start anew,
love awaits for me and you.

Verse #600

She woke to hear the shadows calling from the bedroom door,
a cold unsettled feeling that she'd never felt before,
she moved toward the darkness though her feet scarce touched the floor,
into their deep and warm embrace to be seen never more.

Verse #599

We often take for granted all the blessings we receive,
those treasured people in our lives who never would deceive,
whose love and friendship mean more than we ever could believe,
until the day that life decides it's time for them to leave.

Verse #598

We hear the clock tick down the time,
the seconds slipping quickly by,
to slow the pace feels like a crime,
so on we rush until we die.

Verse #597

You came into my life and you saved my broken soul,
you took me from the edge and you gave me back control,
you stood by me in love and you never left my side,
you are why I exist and you fill my heart with pride.

Verse #596

Our end and our beginning are set before our time,
regardless of the good we do or if we turn to crime,
we all have but one destiny that finds us in the end,
no way to change what is to be- on that we can depend.

Verse #595

The demons have descended upon this mortal plane,
with bargains so enticing to snare our souls again,
no haven for the weak of heart who have nothing to lose,
nor those who live in fear and doubt who have no strength to choose.

Graveling

They watched her from the darkness,
just counting down the time,
a picture of pure calmness,
her countenance sublime.

They followed her in silence,
still waiting for their chance,
a moment more in patience,
before they start the dance.

They talked to her In whispers,
beyond all she could hear,
a secret shared like vespers,
just as her time drew near.

They took her from the shadows,
another lost young soul,
her eyes no longer windows,
into the heart they stole.

Verse #594

Show me all that matters,
give me all I need,
leave my soul in tatters,
working for man's greed.

each obstacle we've battled past,

through the pink and pele years,
our scarlet girl of cornflakes,
will forever calm our fears.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TORI! :-)

Verse #590

A moment for their eyes to meet across a crowded room,
an hour for their souls to touch and for theIr hands to joIn,
a day to plan a future standing tall as bride and groom,
a lifetime to be spent complete as two sides of love's coin.

Verse #589

We walk a path of mystery designed before our time,
our lives deciding history in ways we can't define,

Emerald Dawn

Today will be a brand new day,
A chance to do things your own way,
To forgive all that they might say,
and put all doubt and fear away.

Today will be a brand new start,
A chance to see beyond the art,
To learn the secrets of your heart,
and let the past at last depart.

Today will be your time to shine,
A chance at last to draw the line,
To seek more than just the benign,
and set the world to your design.

our words and deeds are all that will remain of you and me.

Verse #581

Dark clouds ever follow me despite the clear blue sky,
sorrow ever dwells in me although I seldom cry,
panic ever weighs me down in spite of what I say,
happiness is saved it seems for someone else's day.

Bohemia Lost

There is no star to light your way,
No peace within your mind,
No comfort in the words you say,
When freedom's left behind.

There is no whisper in your ear,
No glint within your eye,
No spark to keep your friendships near,
When beauty is a lie.

There is no sun upon your skin,
No hope within your soul,
No release from your mortal sin,
When truth has lost control.

There is no touch upon your hand,
No love within your heart,
No warm embrace to help you stand,
When lovers drift apart.

Verse #580

We each portray a fantasy of who we wish to be,
an image we have crafted for those all around to see,
a cover that we live beneath to hide the paIn away,
a character to play our part and keep the world at bay.

Forlorn

He stands in cold reflection,
a statue in the night,
his life naught but deception,
with no escape in sight.

He has no moral compass,
no inner voice to guide,
his heart knows only darkness,
there is no love inside.

He feels the shadows calling,
each whisper soft and sweet,
his body slowly falling,
just dust beneath their feet.

Verse #579

She floated from the void into the garden of his mind,
her fingers stoked the embers that lay sleeping deep inside,
she whispered all the words that his cold heart could never find,
her love put pen to paper so the truth could never hide.

Verse #578

In the beat of a heart when two souls become one,
there is beauty and hope In the dark of the sun,
an island of bliss in an ocean of love,
an escape from this world to the heavens above.

Just a simple event that has brought us all here,
surrounded by those that we've come to hold dear,
embraced by the joy that each brings when they're near,

Take note of all you have today,
not what you wish to own,

you'll find yourself alone.

Verse #575

his mind lost in the panic of the battle soon to start,
his soul lost in the sadness of what could be never more,
his love for her not fading even as they pierced his heart.

Verse #574

The future can be seen in the reflection of our past,

each choice we've made along the way has built all that we see,
the history of all we are defines who we will be.

Turn a page within your heart,
learn from the pain you feel inside,
rewrite your story from the start,

keep me safe from all that harms,
stay with me and make me whole.

Verse #568

Love is but a song we play in life's repeating dance,
a duet with our one to be if we but have the chance,
a ballad to the world we know and where we wish to be,
a dedication to the secrets shared by you and me.

Verse #567

'Cross fields and open countryside,
through towns and cities too,
the memories kept safe inside,
each moment shared with you.

Verse #566

Majestic force of myth and lore,
the realm of gods and beasts of yore,
eternal foe of ship and shore,
most ancient muse of rich and poor.

Verse #565

Life is but a motorway with choices turning left and right,
the lives we touch just rushing by like traffic racing to and fro,
our dreams and hopes wait at the end through journeys crossing day and night,
but all we are is on that road that ends much sooner than we know.

Verse #564

Two strangers meet and share a smile,
two hands entwine just out of sight,
two hearts beat faster all the while,
two souls unite as one tonight.

Verse #563

Take me from this prison on the island of despair,
give me just one chance to show the people I still care,
stand with me against the hate through all the dreams we share,
help me build a brand new world where all is free and fair.

Verse #562

Touch my skin and warm my heart,
stay with me all through the day,
give me lIfe rIght from the start,
and never take your love away.

Verse #561

uncovered all our shame,
recounted all our regrets,
joined hand and heart in name.

don't lie to me to start again,
don't try for me in word or deed,
don't die for me just let love bleed.

Verse #559

We strive to make a difference,
to change the world we see,
to treat all life with reverence,
to keep all knowledge free.

Lost in Time

Lost in Time

Her heart once meant the world to him,
her smile all he desired,
but time has let the fires dim,
their passion long expired.

His trust once meant so much to her,
his faith all she could need,
but time has let the pages blur,
their story gone to seed.

This dream once meant true love to them,
this chance all they could want,
but time has let the world condemn,
their future not to grant.

Verse #558

We used to have a purpose,
We used to have a name,
We used to run this circus,
Before we lost the game.

Verse #557

The future is a fantasy we all hold in our hearts,
a painting on a canvas coloured by our darkest arts,
a vision of what we might be and all that we might not,
the answer to the puzzle of our life's gordian knot.

Verse #556

Her dark eyes will consume your soul,
her smile will take complete control,
her voice will set your blood afire,
she's all your heart could thus desire.

The Truth Between Beats

Sometimes I want to run away,
Just leave all this behind,
To escape to another world,
That no one else can find.

And yet deep down I see the light,
Just what I know is true,
To swear beyond all realm of doubt,
That I belong with you.

Sometimes I want more than I should,
Just one more chance to live,
To taste of that forbidden fruit,
If life could but forgive.

And yet I need no more than this,
Just for all that we share,
To stay right here where I belong,
With those who really care.

Sometimes I want to end it all,
Just close that final door,
To stop the endless march of time,
And sleep forever more.

And yet I know that all is now,
Just as was meant to be,
To stand by all the vows we spoke,
That still hold true to me.

Sometimes I want to scream out loud,
Just let it all flow free,
To release all the hurt within,
So all the world can see.

And yet I know you share my pain,
Just one more sign of love,
To be as one eternally,
Just like the stars above.

Verse #555

With each new dawn we see the light,
with each new breath we live anew,
with each new dream we greet the night,
with each new kiss we are more true.

Verse #554

Eight is like infinity,
It has no start or end.
Eight is made in symmetry,
two lives joined hand in hand.

Verse #544

Eight is like infinity,
It has no start or end.
Eight is made in symmetry,
two lives joined hand in hand.

Verse #553

Fill my heart with love and light,
hold me close throughout the night,
keep my love always in sight,
help me win this ancient fight.

Verse #552

We live in this reality,
enslaved by our mundanity,
in search of true morality,
in hope of immortality.

Resolve

We fight on with persistence,
No matter what the cost,
Our minds give no resistance,
No matter what is lost.

We strive for independence,
No matter who the foe,
Our souls seek no repentance,
No matter what they know,

We stand against the carnage,
No matter what we see,
Our hearts escaping bondage,
No matter what the fee.

Verse #551

Age proves not maturity, 
nor faith prove innocence, 
skin is nought but what we see, 
true love gives all a chance.

Verse #550

To tell the world your secrets,
to keep nothing inside,
to give up all your regrets,
to let your heart decide.

Verse #549

No matter what the distance,
through all the pain we see,
we fight on with persistence,
to be all we can be.

Verse #548

If absence makes the heart grow fonder,
the love I feel can be no wonder,
for no matter where life takes my heart,
know that our souls will not ever part.

Verse #547

I look towards the future with a growing sense of fear,
a deep concern for what I know is ever drawing near,
yet though the world seems doomed and there is little I can do,
I'm glad that I have lived thus far and shared my love with you.

Verse #546

She sees the clouds of sorrow that are drifting through his mind,
the secrets of a past that she was never meant to find,
the shadow on his heart that forever will remain,
the wall around his soul that will forever hide the pain.

Verse #545

His eyes contain a world of hope,
his words console her broken heart,
his touch is all she needs to cope,
his love will never let them part.

Verse #544

Her love is in recession,
her life all but complete,
her soul beyond confession,
her heart naught but deceit.

Verse #543

Sometimes we push the hand of fate,
to force a change before it's date,
the end result may be the same,
though different rules define the game.

Verse #542

Explore the caverns of my heart,
patrol the dungeons of my soul,
locate the secrets of my art,
reveal the demons I console.

Verse #541

Spare me from the agony of all who would deceive,
bring my mind the clarity it has not found thus far,
fill my heart with gratitude for all that I receive,
give my soul the strength it needs to reach each distant star.

Verse #540

New horizons come to view,
defined by all we say and do,
our chance to mend or start anew,
a bright new dawn for me and you.

Verse #539

The future is unclear it seems,
our true path far from sight,
each choice played out through waking dreams,
to find the wrong from right.

Verse #538

To strive toward your heart's desire,
to stand alone against the tide,
to show your soul's immortal fire,
to be yourself and never hide.

Verse #537

Plot your course across life's seas,
take each storm that comes with ease,
keep your goals always in sight,
the end result is worth the fight.

Verse #536

Hidden in the shadows that surround her fragile mind,
waiting in the darkness for the light of love to find,
lost within the labyrinth of her immortal soul,
far beyond the barricade of her own self control.

Verse #535

Ever do you hold my hand,
ever is your warm heart near,
ever shall our two souls stand,
ever will we be right here.

Verse #534

My heart still skips a beat for you,
our souls still march in time,
two lives entwined in all we do,
true love still reigns sublime.

Verse #533

Sometimes I don't fit my skin,
it feels too small for me,
as if I'm somehow trapped within,
just longing to be free.

Verse #532

The future will not wait for you,
it has no sense of time,
so grab it when it passes through,
else never will you climb.

Verse #531

We all have had a vision of all that we want to be,
an image far removed from what the world has come to see,
we long to be that person so much more than you or me,
and hope that if we make it then at last we can be free.

Verse #530

Sixty years our Majesty,
a symbol for posterity,
sing Rule Brittania one and all,
and never shall this nation fall.

Verse #529

Step into darkness in the heat of the abyss,
salvation long forgotten in rapture of his kiss,
expose your inhibitions to the fire in his soul,
abandon all your innocence and let him take control.

Inmaturity

I used to be so innocent,
I used to be so sweet,
I used to be so small and weak,
Just crawling round your feet.

You used to dress and wash me,
You used to hold my hand,
You used to be the strength I lacked,
Before I'd learnt to stand.

I'll always be your baby,
I'll always be right here,
I'll always need you with me,
To help me face my fear.

You have to see I'm growing,
You have to feel the change,
You have to let me take a risk,
Although it may feel strange.

I'm learning more of who I am,
I'm learning how to stand,
I'm learning to be more grown up,
I know you'll understand.

Verse #528

Give your soul to me and all the world will know our love,
share your dreams with me and we shall never be apart,
stand here next to me before the angels high above,
spend your days with me and stay forever in my heart.

Verse #527

You've found each broken part of me,
all scarred and lost to history,
you've made me whole for all to see,
in awe of true love's mystery.

another chance to be reborn,
another day for hope to spawn,
to build a world of love not scorn.

Verse #525

She looks towards the sunset of all that she's ever known,
just waiting for the darkness and the comfort it will bring,
her heart cries out for rescue from the torment she's been shown,
his fangs are swift to answer and at last their souls can sing.

Verse #523

We dance before the audience to  distract them from our past,
our secrets covered over by the costume of our part,
we wallow in this fantasy surrounded by life's cast,
until the curtains close and we go right back to the start.

Verse #522

He cowers in the darkness,
as his heart silently screams,
his mind enslaved by madness,
and his soul long lost in dreams.

a single tear before she goes,
to start her life again today,
and make her mark in her own way.

Their reign of greed is almost done,
and here we sleep until the end,
to wake with their last setting sun,
and help this darkened world to mend.

Verse #519

His journey had been long and fraught,
his heart had long been cold,
his eyes betrayed the love he sought,
his soul was not so bold.

Verse #518

Take her hand and hold her stare,
touch her heart and guide her soul,
show her love beyond compare,
give her hope beyond control.

Verse #517

Fill his heart with darkness and his life will be in shade,
drown his soul in anger and his love will be afraid,
keep his eyes diverted and his fight will soon degrade,
break his mind with torment and his spark will quickly fade.

Verse #516

Complicate each thought and need,
consecrate each act and deed,
concentrate each cry and scream,
confiscate each hope and dream.

Verse #515

Each tear contains a world of pain,
a storm of cold eternal rain,
a battlefield where dreams are slain,
a night no Sun will light again.

Verse #514

Fill my heart with sunshine- clear the darkness from my soul,
give me love and kindness- take my life in your control,
mend my shattered dreams and show me all that I could be,
keep me in your long embrace and ever stay with me.

Verse #513

A world of magic all around,
new wonders waiting to be found,
so much for you to learn and try,
and all at only four foot high.

Verse #512

Take her damaged soul into the comfort of your heart,
heal her tender wounds with all the power of your love,
take her fragile hand and swear to never be apart,
mend her broken wings and let her soar once more above.

Verse #511

The ink I bleed is more than words,
each thought more than it seems,
these songs made up of simple chords,
that chronicle my dreams.

take me from the path of hate,
stay with me and be my wife,
walk with me through heaven's gate.

Clean my slate and clear the air,
just smile at me to show you care,
forgive my sins and help me grow,
I love you more than you could know.

clear away the debris of the life I've left behind,
show me how to find the light of angels far above,
heal my soul and save me from the curse upon my kind.

Verse #507

Some days the light embraces you,
some days its dark instead,
for all this short life puts you through,
the truth lies in your head.

Verse #505

The time we have with those we love,
more precious than the stars above,
beyond all mortal means of cost,
can never be regained once lost.

Verse #504

Another journey starts today,
another chapter in the book,
another song for life to play,
another chance to stop and look.

Verse #503

Protect your heart from darkness with the light you hold within,
Secure your soul against all that encourages you to sin,
Remember who you are and all the love you have to share,
Keep safe from what may hurt you but embrace all those who care.

Verse #502

Though age brings vulnerability,
it also brings maturity,
new worlds of possibility,
and true responsibility.

Verse #501

Confiscate all but my name,
imprison me in your cruel game,
convince me that you're not to blame,
abandon me in all my shame.

Verse #500

We sometimes see the future long before it has begun,
the path laid out before our eyes no matter what we do,
we travel down this road we share towards the setting sun,
just grateful for the time the world has given me and you.

Verse #499

Your heart has long abandoned me,
your love has left me cold,
our souls were never meant to be,
alone we must grow old.

Verse #498

We walk these ancient shadowed streets within our war-torn hearts,
our dreams a painted canvas of long forbidden arts,
our souls entwined by angels both fallen and in flight,
our bodies joined forever in darkness and in light.

Verse #497

Though darkness reigns upon the land,
through iron fist and cold despair,
the day will come to make a stand,
to build a world we all can share.

Verse #496

Drench me in the downpour from the dark clouds of your pain,
drown me in a torrent of depression once again,
hold my body under as you fight to reach the shore,
leave me here to rest at last upon your ocean floor.

Verse #495

Stare into the darkness that has gathered round your soul,
light a match and let the flame burn for your self control,
strip away the shadows and the cold that lies within,
take a stand and light the way so that your heart can win.

Secluse

His fangs have slowly dulled with age,
His wings have long been cut,
Yet still he feels the ancient rage,
From when the gates were shut.

He thinks back on the happy times,
Still dreams of better days,
The cool breeze of those lofty climbs,
Before this bitter haze.

His mind awash with memories,
The pain beyond compare,
His face a mask of pleasantries,
The truth so few could bear.

He prays each night to start anew,
Still hopes for something more,
To end the torment he's been through,
So that his soul can soar.

Verse #494

Hear our whispers in the night,
catch our shadows out of sight,
find our secrets in the light,
cleanse our souls and join our plight.

Verse #493

The memories we hold define the future that we see,
the journey that we take influenced by the friends we find,
our past the key to everything that makes up you and me,
each memory we've shared preserved by those we leave behind.

Verse #492

In the magic of the dawn,
on this bright and sacred morn,
far from evil and its spawn,
your weary soul will be reborn.

Evergloam

Walk within the shadows that are calling to your soul,
Give yourself to darkness and surrender all control,
Let the spirits bathe you in the love that night can bring,
Free yourself from conflict and just let your black heart sing.

Walk within the shadows that have ever been with you,
Listen to their whispers and remember every clue,
Understand each secret and the path ahead will clear,
Trust your sacred family to conquer all you fear.

Walk within the shadows that once followed in your wake,
Feel much closer to them with each catching breath you take,
Find the peace and comfort that you never thought could be,
Stay here in the darkness where no one but us can see.

Verse #491

Home is not a building nor a point in space or time,
home is more a feeling when your world is just sublime,
home is where your heart lies and where all pretense is gone,
home is where the truth is and the light of love has shone.

Verse #490

This time is for forgiveness- the cleansing of all sin,
a time for starting over so healing can begin,
the re-birth of our spirits and the joy that life can bring,
a time where love and family reign over everything.

Verse #489

Let me take you with me on a journey through my mind,
beware the broken landscape and the shadows you will find,
take notice of the monuments to friends along the way,
perhaps you might create your own within my heart some day.

Verse #488

With dawn she finds a new direction,
within the cool air of reflection,
her heart cloaked in true love's protection,
prepared for all of life's rejection.

Verse #487

Nothing that you do will make a difference in the end,
from everything you make to every message that you send,
the more you try to change you find the more will stay the same,
when all is said and done you're just a face without a name.

Darkview

Her days drift by from dawn to dusk,
Beneath the sun's emblazoned husk,
Each night awash in cold dismay,
Just dreading the approaching day,

She thinks back to her younger days,
Behind the warm rose-tinted glaze,
Each hope a long forgotten dream,
Just ripples in her memory stream,

Her path has brought her far from home,
Beneath these skies where demons roam,
Each battle fought for nothing real,
Just shallow wounds that cannot heal.

She looks towards the coming days,
Behind this dark depressing haze,
Each day another pointless blend,
Just waiting for her time to end.

Verse #485

Free me from the shackles and the prison of my mind,
take me from the darkness to the light I left behind,
help me find some comfort in the love of my own kind,
give me just one chance to see the world our dreams designed.

Verse #484

Standing at the barricade of all we've come to fear,
knowing that the time to act is ever drawing near,
we bid farewell to those we love and all that we hold dear,
the bond we share contained within each warm and loving tear.

Verse #483

Lock your heart away from all the hurt this life can bring,
keep you soul in solitude and never let it sing,
fill your life with objects and avoid love's fatal sting,
you'll find that you have nothing though you may own everything.

Verse #482

Though life has brought us pain and woe,
and darkness is all that we know,
together we can light a flame,
and change the rules of this cruel game.

Verse #481

The damage of our torrid past is never truly lost,
our sanity and sanctity the cold and final cost,
each remedy and therapy can never bring resolve,
in time the pain will swallow us and hope will just dissolve.

Verse #480

Your love is like an ocean- ever crashing at my shore,
my mind caught in the flotsam and the jetsam of your tides,
my soul long set adrift to be with you ever more,
my heart absorbed into the peace your dark embrace provides.

Verse #479

Life is like a jungle filled with danger and intrigue,
the journey long and torturous and peppered with fatigue,
we each seek out a paradise where all can be at peace,
where love can stand above us all and war can truly cease.

Verse #478

My place of birth defined the moral compass of my soul,
my childhood soon taught me of the need for self control,
my teenage years required that I live for more than me,
my adulthood is now my own to be all I can be.

Verse #476

Find the light of ancient truth,
inside the secrets of our youth,
beyond the lies of man-made law,
back to the signs our prophets saw.

Verse #475

When all the world has left you in the depths of your despair,
When all you've ever had has gone and no one else could care,
When all you feel is pain and hurt that no one else could bear,
remember that- no matter what- my love is always there.

Verse #474

The shadows of the past dictate each motion your heart makes,
The world around you changing with each path your conscience takes,
The secrets that you've hidden will expose your soul in time,
The damage to all those you've loved will ever be your crime.

Verse #473

Don't look back on the things I've done with anger or alarm,
don't dwell upon the things I've said for they mean you no harm,
think only of the love we've shared and all that we've been through,
regardless of what fate may bring my heart belongs to you.

Verse #472

Be strong, my dearest soul mate, don't let their darkness in;
be brave, my treasured sister, don't get lost in this tide;
keep faith, my precious angel, don't give in to their sin;
keep safe, my kindred spirit, in my heart you can hide.

Verse #471

Life can give and it can take,
this roller coaster with no brake,
that blurs the real into the fake,
in spite of every move you make.

Verse #470

Time is not our friend nor is it on our side,
no way to halt its progress or even slow the tide,
we cannot change the future nor find a place to hide,
we simply make the best of it and enjoy our short ride.

Verse #469

Plans are made and paths are changed,
lives are lost or rearranged,
yet what will be is meant to be,
as fate decides for you and me.

Verse #468

You're always here beside me even though you may not know,
forever deep inside my heart no matter where I go,
though time still takes its toll as every scar we have will show,
I know you're always here with me wherever I will go.

Verse #467

Focus all your energy on where you want to be,
the strength we need to take a stand is inside you and me,
from every breath you take to everything you'll ever see,
the smallest thing can change your world and help to set you free.

Verse #466

I seek the light of truth beyond the shadow of all doubt,
the secrets of the word hidden behind religious clout,
the history of those men who walked the deserts long ago,
the lessons that they taught about the God I've come to know.

Verse #465

She stands upon the threshold of her own humanity,
a shadow of the angels through a life of chastity,
a candle in the darkness of man's animosity,
a symbol of pure innocence in her fragility.

Verse #464

She stares into her future through a constant flood of pain,
to find nothing but darkness in the cold torrential rain,
so caught up in the horrors manifested in her brain,
she'll never see her past nor find her present self again.

Verse #463

I look back at my past to find the shadows watching me,
their blackened eyes reflecting what I thought no one could see,
each dark and twisted moment long forgotten from my mind,
just waiting there behind me for the ones I love to find.

Verse #462

My words are more than poetry- much more than simple rhymes,
they are my chosen therapy- my light through darker times,
they chronicle my history- from noble deeds to crimes,
and help to shape my destiny- if my soul falls or climbs.

Verse #461

The darkness is descending on my torn and broken mind,
The shadows creeping closer as they render my heart blind,
No secrets left to save me from the fate my soul will find,
No way to change this outcome as I leave the world behind.

Verse #460

The day has come and night must go,
our shadows shrinking with the light,
the moment gone before we know,
so much unsaid left in the night.

The Trinity of Me

My logic is a crutch in all the chaos that I see,
A guiding light into the dark that ever follows me,
A secret world far from this life that no one else can find,
My haven in this hell of man kept safely in my mind.

My faith is what defines my life and something none can shake,
A different beast from dogma that no mortal man could make,
A secret force inside of me that shapes the world I see,
My saviour from the past and source of all I've come to be.

My love is something few will see and even less will share,
A gift and curse bestowed on those for whom I truly care,
A secret kept from those that would destroy what lies within,
My heart and soul protected from all but my dearest kin.

Verse #459

Forever and always were never more true,
whenever I think of all that we've been through,
if ever you've doubted this one point of view,
forever and always know that I love you.

Verse #458

The rising sun comes into view,
a chance for life to start anew,
all sins forgiven by the light,
all wrongs forgotten with the night.

Verse #457

I write these simple words to mark the passing of each day,
the pages turning slowly as the hours tick away,
forever searching for the things my soul will let me say,
presented here for each of you in my poetic way.

Verse #456

Blinded as my soul conspires,
waning as my skin perspires,
captive to your dark desires,
weakened by your hell-spawned fires.

Verse #455

If you could see inside my heart,
beyond each torn and broken part,
you'd find a flame that burns for you,
this light of love that sees me through.

Verse #454

Another dawn now meets the eye,
another day we must get through,
I'll count the moments that go by,
until I can come home to you.

Verse #453

Let my love caress your skin,
let my heart absorb your fear,
let my mind correct each sin,
let my soul be ever near. 

Verse #452

You play the music of my heart,
you paint my soul's immortal art,
I know our lives will never part,
you were the one right from the start.

Verse #451

I walk a line directed by the passion of my soul,
towards a destination I have no way to define,
through intertwining pathways far beyond my mind's control,
just living for the journey as I walk along this line.

Verse #450

This fire that burns within my soul,
contained inside the heart you stole,
a symbol of the bond we share,
your love still makes me stop and stare.

Verse #449

Standing where the ice is thin,
lost in life's eternal spin,
blinded by each plastic grin,
drowning in their mortal sin.

Verse #448

Though snow and ice obstruct my day,
I know your love will clear my way,
the truth is in three words you say,
that show your heart will never stray.

Verse #447

Though the winter wind is cold,
and though we will one day grow old,
the love we share will warm our days,
and keep us young in many ways.

Verse #446

If you could see the future and the horrors it would bring,
if you knew that tomorrow there would be no birds to sing,
if you felt that this sorrow would be your heart's fatal sting,
would you still walk towards your fate in spite of everything?

Verse #444

Take me from the cold into the comfort of your love,
let me feel the warmth of all the angels up above,
keep me from the shadows that are eating at my soul,
hold my heart inside of you to give me back control.

Verse #443

Come to me in secrecy when no one else can hear,
comfort me with kindness and eradicate my fear,
complicate my life and everything that I hold dear,
cover me in darkness as the end of life draws near.

Verse #442

If the world should end tomorrow,
though there would be pain and sorrow,
I know we'd still be together,
for our souls are linked forever.

Verse #441

So this is my true destiny,
one long road of monotony,
a life of anonymity,
trapped in this world's insanity.

Verse #440

Tell me what you want from me, 
recognise all that I've learned,
show me who I need to be,
give me all that I have earned.

Verse #439

One more digit to your age,
one more act upon your stage,
one more day that's just for you,
one time where you can't be blue!

Verse #438

My heart is like a train on an endless railway line,
forever surging forward to a station I can't find,
in and out of tunnels where the light of love can't shine,
far across this landscape in the silence of my mind.

Verse #437

Time will heal all but your scars,
faith will help you find your way,
hope will take you to the stars,
trust will bring you love one day.

Verse #436

We march together hand in hand,
to meet each challenge in our way,
our voices joined in one last stand,
our hearts' resolve will never sway.

Verse #435

Exorcise these demons from the corners of my mind,
separate them from my heart and leave my soul behind,
give me one more chance to seek the peace I've yet to find,
save me from the hell in which my love has been confined.

Verse #434

Stay here with me for just a while,
walking slowly hand in hand,
lift my spirits with your smile,
only you can understand.

Verse #433

Take me back of ancient times,
to loyal knights and mighty steeds,
to holy quests against dark crimes,
to chivalry and noble deeds.

Verse #432

Don't rest upon your laurels,
it won't help you to ascend,
forgive these petty quarrels,
and just help the world to mend.

Verse #431

Take all the joy from what I do,
the things that make me less like you,
ignore the good for your own fear,
destroy all that has brought me here.

Verse #430

Although the world seems cold and dark,
And love has left its cruel mark,
Remember God is there with you,
And one day love will grow anew.

Verse #429

Shine your light on me today,
guide me through the words you say,
help my heart to find a way,
take my hand and never stray.

Verse #428

Start your life again today,
forgive all that your doubters say,
find courage every time you pray,
to change the world in your own way.

Verse #428

Start your life again today,
forgive all that your doubters say,
find courage every time you pray,
to change the world in your own way.

Kryger

Few have had the life you've known,
The tainted soil from which you've grown,
The things your eyes have since been shown,
The hell to which your soul was thrown.

None could now be who your are,
Without each deep and painful scar,
Yet still your eyes gleam like a star,
Despite all that has been so far. 
 
For all the years that have gone by,
With every tear you've dared to cry,
Through each new road you've had to try,
Your heart at last has reached the sky.

And here you stand for all to see,
The master of your destiny,
A hero for the world and me,
Remembered for eternity.

Verse #427

Bless the angels in my life,
their love that keeps my heart alight,
their words that keep my mind from strife,
their faith that keeps my soul in flight.

Verse #426

The first step is the hardest one,
the point where most would come undone,
but make a plan and do not shy,
just give your heart the chance to try.

Verse #425

This jigsaw puzzle of the soul,
with pieces always out of sight,
each shape beyond our mind's control,
for love dictates which ones fit right.

Sojourn

Walking down this path of hate,
A darkness that will not sedate,
This nightmare no one could create,
So far from that once peaceful state.

Now sinking in this sea of shame,
A cloud of hurt that has no name,
A coldness where there once was  flame,
In feelings I can't seem to tame.

Descending in my own despair,
This broken soul beyond repair,
My heart dissolves each thought and care,
To leave me with no love to spare.

So here I lay beyond remorse,
Where destiny has run its course,
My time to go back to the source,
Beyond all realms of human force.

Verse #424

The love of someone close to you,
can make the world seem bright and new,
and change all that you thought you knew,
to help your heart find what is true.

Verse #423

Take away my right to speak,
enslave my heart and leave me weak,
obstruct me from each goal I seek,
condemn me with your evil streak.

Verse #422

Looking back on each endeavour,
all we've done despite our years,
what we've built will stand forever,
cemented by our smiles and tears.

Verse #421

Help my soul to stand today,
show my heart which words to say,
guide my life in your own way,
don't let my dreams just slip away.

Verse #420

Count each blessing- heed each curse,
learn all things could be much worse,
find your own path- don't look back,
make your own way from the pack.

Verse #419

Setting out on this new day,
and on to places far away,
yet in your heart I'll always stay,
the love we share could never stray.

Verse #418

Demonise all that I've done,
hunt me down like simple prey,
lock me up without the sun,
keep the truth of this at bay.

Verse #417

Incomplete right from the start,
An empty space within each heart,
Two souls without some vital part,
Forever doomed to live apart.

Verse #416

And so we start a journey that we've all been on before,
another step along a path with nothing new to see,
we hope for something new that will excite this daily chore,
who knows what could be out there waiting just for you and me.

Verse #415

Share with me this brand new dawn,
the canvas blank- no lines yet drawn,
a chance to live in joy not fear,
to sketch our path for this new year.

Verse #414

Another year draws to a close,
as one more day comes to an end,
the clock ticks on as each one knows,
this is the time for life to mend.
