Should I step off the curb onto
a street I can’t cross?
I stand here, watching the traffic.
I know the sign is red.
When you are with me we play on that street.
The boundaries melts away.
There are no corners, no sidewalks, no signs.
So I stand here, on my curb watching traffic.
The walls you’ve built are tall and wide
Your face has a smile but I see inside
You’ve been hurt once, maybe twice.
Could those walls come down, would you find that nice
The pain you hide could be washed away.
If you let me in I’ll never stray.
I see in your soul, your beauty is deep
Like a dream I see you, but I’m not asleep
The layers of fear that live deep inside.
Fear of yourself, is that why you hide
Don’t be afraid, you’ll like what you see.
And the Knight that you dream of, that could be me.
Is love a fantasy to you, like a dream that never comes true.
Can anyone keep the fantasy alive, that is what I aim to do.
Can you love enough to let down your walls,
Will you read my letters and take my calls.
Would having just one for you be a little to scary
All your eggs in one basket makes them easier to carry
This life is a fantasy,
we all exist in the imagination of those we touch
You’ve built a palace of steel and stone.
beautifully painted black and gold
It shows your warm side and your cold.
You’ve abandon your jeweled throne
making sure your sins are known.
You seem to be letting me inside
this beautiful place for you to hide.
So many rooms can not be shown
they’re locked shut and bolted tight.
Some hold jewels shinning bright.
While others keep tasks to be postpone,
and deeds that must not be known.
For me these room hold no fear.
I’ve seen these rooms in the mirror.
You’ve built your palace from steel and stone.
It’s beautifully painted black and gold
there are many secrets that it does hold.
So many things we hide as we’ve grown
there are many things that we disown.
The ones that scare me the most
are those hidden from the host.
In a dream I was on a great journey, were I was going
was not clear. I knew it was very important for me to
find the right destination and most of the signs I
found on my way were very clearly wrong. I had to
learn very quickly how to read the nuances of the
paths and go by my gut instincts. As soon as I felt I
was on the right path people would appear to say
“you’re going the wrong way” they would often tell me
in great detail what I should have done and should do
in the future. I found this to be one of the best
indicators that I was traveling in the direction that
I needed to. At one point I ran into a person that
claimed to be heading to the same destination, She
too had found that others would tell to go a different
way than she needed to. As her and I traveled she
would show me new ways to read the road, animals,
plants and the sky. I tried to share with her what I
had learned, but because some of it was new to her and
she had not yet ‘tested’ these ways we would have to
wait to try them out. When the time came to use her
ways or mine she would always say “I know my way works
you only feel your ways work, this is too important to
go by instinct”. When after traveling together for
many years I finally noticed that she had taken me off
my path, that we were on her path. I told her “I must
get back on my path”. I had to walk with her for
a few months before I found a road I knew I must take
and we said our good-byes. I learned more in those last
few months than I had in all the years that her and I
traveled together.
For two people to travel on these paths together they
must always keep there own destination in mind, even
if it is just an instinct.
The vertical bliss of this climb is nothing compared to the horizontal.
Do we want to crawl out on this ledge?
There are no anchors or bolts of those who have traveled before us.
Should we make this lovers pledge?
The scenery takes our breath away and sends us into ecstasy.
Are we acting like a couple of teens?
The air must be getting thin, I’ve lost my ability to concentrate.
Do we understand what this means?
With each day
each night
I fall in love with you
The world becomes more vibrant
With every step
every breath
I fall in love with you
The world becomes more unique
With every kiss
every touch
I fall in love with you
The world becomes more vivid
I’ll love you
today
tomorrow
and
forever
Which one of us, has not dreamed of this moment
a moment of comfort and a moment of joy
Without thought knowing this is right
giving ourselves to this moment completely
To have this moment last for the rest of our lives
and being one with all that this moment is
As I sleep I am in this moment
when I wake I will be in this moment
This moment started when your thoughts met mine
and when our eyes met this moment grew.
As we fell into each others arms this moment flew
our bodies became one, this moment broke through
In the spring of this year you had sparked a fire
You showed me yourself and it’s you I admire
I woke to this dream every morning with you
You are all that I see and you are all that I do
In the summer of this year you charged my desire
But for us to move forward seemed a quagmire
The love that you gave I took without thought
I loved every moment the trust that you taught
The autumn descends and it’s you I require
Being with you has become more than dire
I love that future seems far more than clear
A future that will take shape through this year
As winter moves in we can cuddle up close
We require no more than our love bestows
With our fire lit and desire charged
My love for you each day has enlarged
