Lost Child

Mama, I am afraid,
Where are you when I needed you?
Mama, please don't abandon me,
Why do you always leave me behind?
Mama, please listen to me,
Why don't you understand me?
Mama, last night I woke up crying,
I dreamt everyone left me behind,
Everyday I feel so lost inside....

(Heather M.)

I Still Believe

Although it was just a brief passing glance,
That moment looking into your eyes made me realize that I really want you,
Although I am too shy to reveal my feelings for you,
In my heart I hope you feel it too,
Although we are walking in different directions,
In my mind I still believe we will meet again real soon.

When

When the mountains lose their highest peaks,
When rivers cease to flow,
When time has ended, dawn and dusk gone,
When the living earth exists no more,

Still I cannot say farewell to you,
Still I can't part with you,
To have known you,
Was my lifetime's most greatest blessings,

When th sun no longer rise up high,
When planets cease to revolve,
When seasons vanished, showing no change,
When grass and plants and trees all decay,

Still I cannot say goodbye to you,
Still I can't part with you,
Your bright smile,
Was my lifetimes most cherished reward,

So let us all be together,
Be free and content,
Race into time, savor lifetime's blessings,
Toast to good health, sing to our heart's delight,
Lots of sunshine,
Grasping this life's freedom.

Friendship

All those years,
When one face,
Obstacles down the road,
Many tears, many faults,
But our friendship is still strong,

Only when,
You look back,
And recall memories,
Treasured thoughts, precious times,
Then you'll see,

We have tread through many years,
In our ties our souls are cured,
Found some joys,
Conquered fears,
Lived our dreams,
Shed some tears,

In a friendship bond so tight,
Lonely roads are out of sight,
Though it's dark,
There is light,
You have me,
It's alright.

Flow

Feel the pulse,
Feel the rhythm,
Close your eyes,
And let it take you,
Where it feels so good,
Let your body flow.

(Heather M.)

Flames

An internal fire burns for a dream out of reach,

The locked door stands tall and triumphant, it cannot be breached,

Its surface is marked by splinters and blood stains,

A silent confession of years of desolation and pain,

The untendered flames burns out of control,

I am wrapped in fog as black as coal,

Cinder littering every road,

Each step so blistering hot wherever I go.

(Heather M.)

Destiny

In the distance a spark glows ever so stronger,
The road ahead stretches longer and longer,
In my heart an answering spark ignites a fire,
Footsteps tugged on by a single desire,
Gusty wind directs the course of the river,
I am lost no longer.

Flickering Fragments

Visions blurred by fog and rain
What was before you flickers away in pain
Life's canvas torn into millions of shreds
Possible horizons consumed by shadows as dark as lead
Unforgiving tempest breaking down memory's door
Hailing stones and lashing sleet it did pour
Until no amount of repair can restore
Memory's stories exist no more
