A Few of My Thoughts. Past and Present

Dreamstar

Chasing a dream can only take you so far...
'till you realize- it's just an old burnt out star.
Once beautiful and bright,
Now just dark and cold...
Keep chasing it, silly child
Go on, chase 'till you're old.

While you're off chasing stars,
I'll be here in the light.
I be here enjoying the beautiful sight.
It may not be fancy, sparkle or gleam...
But one day you'll see that it is everything.

Everything you wanted, needed and desired.
Everything you saw blazing in the fire.
Everything you wanted but didn't know how to grasp,
Everything that could have been all left in the past.

So chase the dream that will only take you so far.
Chase it 'till you see- it's just an old burnt out star.
Once beautiful, yeah-beautiful and bright,
Now leaves you dark and cold...
Keep chasing silly child, 
Go on, chase 'till you're old.

Lovely

A lovely bird, once held from flight
Escaped from darkness-
And into light.

I know how to hold onto
A love so tender-
Strong and True.

Break it, if you hold too tight
and hold too lose-
it will take flight.

The perfect balance is only seen
In this love so true-
My lovely bird. 
My Adoring King.
Everything.

  Real

I may not be like them 
I refuse to hide my face
I may not need like them
I am comfortable in my place
I may not be like them
I am not fond of the chase
I may not need like them
I live at my own pace.

I am not one of those
Who needs constant affirmation
I am not one to pose
I have only good intentions
I will not be one of those
Who plays the game of deception
I will not be one of those
Who thrives on misconceptions

I am better than those
Who never feel content
I am better than those
Who thrive on mal-intent
I am better than those
My beauty comes from within
I am better than those
You just don't see what I am.

Whirlwind

A fleeting glimpse of something with you
These feelings evolved-  
could they be true?
Life is complicated and moves too fast
These emotions haven't changed- 
how long will they last?

 This whirlwind is blowing me off of my course
My plans for the future, now just remorse.
I am learning to take life's little chances
And stop fooling 'round with silly romances.

I desire something that's true,
Something I know, can't be found in you.
This new path i'm taking can't be planned out
Its random, and i'm sure will provide me with doubt.
But that's part of life I must start anew

I'll start living for the me, and not for the you.

Three

I cherish that day in early September
A day I am sure only we would remember
Across the room I felt a presence
And in that company I became effervescent
A small favor made way to conversation
Impelling us to  late night speculation

I think about the way things would have been
If I had decided to have a night in
A decision creates an outcome
In which risks must be made
I for one am thankful that
In us luck pervades.

  Flame

I hate feeling sorry.
I know I've let you down.
Your candle is burning in my heart,
And mine's lying on the ground.
It's been blown out in the past;
Each time you shared your flame.
But without you here to give me light,
I'll never be the same.

I'm told that the good things last,
But good people die young.
I'm told that good times go fast,
But I don't like to run.
I'm told that if I wait long enough,
Happiness will come.
But I've been waiting all my life,
And still can't find the one. 

I love being happy.
I know I'll come around.
Your candle's still burning in my heart,
Even though mine's on the ground.
Your light is forever with me;
I will find my own new flame.
Soon enough my candle will be bright.
I'm thankful for the change.

I'm told that the good things last,
But good people die young.
I'm told that good times go fast,
But I don't like to run.
I'm told that if I wait long enough,
Happiness will come.
But I've been waiting all my life,
And still can't find the one.
So I will wait as long as it takes.
Until I find the one.

Love Spun
Whether it is in sunshine
Or under the darkness of the night,
Your kisses always feel so right.
The rain can be hard,
Or the rain can be soft,
Your love, my Dear keeps my heart aloft.

I want to feel your kisses
Every night and day.
I yearn to be in your arms,
And with our music sway.
Dance with me, my love.
Dance with me and sing .
Our song has its own sweet rhythm;
a perfect harmony.

Life can by trying,
And life can be fun.
My life with you is an adventure,
One that has just begun.
But life with you is beautiful,
A web of love being spun.

I want to feel your kisses
Every night and day.
I yearn to be in your arms,
And with our music sway.
Dance with me, my love.
Dance with me and sing .
Our song has its own sweet rhythm;
Sweet Serendipity.
