Wish You Were Here

(end February, 2012)
 
Wish you were here
And my bed was made with you in it
Wish I could see you
And touch you, taste your sweet face again
Wish I could hear you
Your sweet voice like angel's wings beating
Want to, NEED to
But OH ....
So far all this is from me
I only wish it could be ....
A reality

Will You, Will We

(early February 2005)

Will you
get the bus tonight?
Will you
make it here alright?
Will you
lose your mind tonight?

You might

Oh

So

Will we
get it right tonight?
Will we
have an awful fight?
Will it
be a nasty sight?

It might

Oh dear

Well

Do you
understand what's right?
Do you
think we'll see the light?
Do you
think this is all that right?

I don't

Ah

So

Have we
time to talk tonight?
Have you
had a chance to write?
Have I
had enough of fight?

I have

Wild Horses

(mid June 2009, early evening)
 
You see them
They come, come to your door
Through your windows
They invade you
Completely

What will you do now?
Will you resist or fight?
Repel or defend?
Or will you let them in
Befriend them, nurture them
And make them as your own

For they have sought
Have searched high, low and wide
Crossed deserts, plains and gone through forest
To find you here

Now they are at rest
Time to lay down their loads
And feel
This is their stable, their haven
Their home and resting place
With you inside your heart

And they will change
Before your eyes will see them
No longer savage beasts
But gentle and caring
Needing and loving
Wanting to please
And needing to know
To feel your love
With them too
Inside
They will rest easy
Now they have come home
To you, my love
It is over.

Why?

Why?
You told me that you loved me
And begged me not to leave you
Why?

I gave you flowers
I gave you me
I gave you everything
But it wasn't enough
Why?

I hope you're happy now
In your loneliness with your lonely times
And nothing to comfort you except memories
Are you really happy?
I'm not. Why?

It makes no sense to me
Why you would want this
And to make two people so very unhappy
Just isn't worth the while
Is it. Why, then?

I hope you'll be happy one day
I hope you'll find a man who ....
Gives you everything and doesn't argue
About the petty things you liked so much to
So bloody stupid! Why??

I just don't understand anything
I don't understand why
Or what the reason is for such a stupid argument
Am I really so bad?
You seem to think so
But I'm not, so Why?

So it's all over now
And everything we had is ruined
We could have been so great together, you and me
Just the greatest thing we could have had
We both wanted it, so Why?

I don't know
Why? Why? Why?

Whole Again

(end November, 2011)

If tonight was Armageddon
Or the Horsemen rode into view
If the bomb dropped or sky fell
I would smile

I would not worry or fret
Neither vex nor be at worry
Stress would not be on my head
Only happy times and mood

For I
Would be with you

Where did you step?
And appear unto me from?
Was it fate?
Did the wind blow?
And trees chatter in the breeze
To call you to me
This I feel
Now, NOW is the time
To be whole again

Where Are You?

(2nd February 2013)

Where are you, my love ...
Tonight
And who sits ...
Here where you are not?
None shall see
But will hear only the sound
Of silence

What Will Be

(early August, 2009)
 
What will be ....
What is nice,
What I won't,
I must think twice

When I'm there
The day is dawned
My thoughts, desires
Will all be born

The things I need
I'll find them there
Those super eyes
That long, long hair

And what will she?
She think of I?
I hope that we
Can learn to fly

The best is there
I know it well
To free me from
My Years In Hell

But what is next?
When there I'm quit
When will we next
Together sit

I hope that this
Is not our last
I want with her
Forget our past.
