Counting Stars

     

If I had to walk

A million miles

To get to where you are

You know I’d walk one million more

To get to you by far

If I had to swim a thousand seas

To hear you say I’m yours

You know in your heart

I’d be there

Before you call my name

If all that you were

Was just a man

Without a claim to a dime

You know I’d still hold you dearly

Forever until the end of time

What Makes the Difference

You can make that difference

you can stop time

You light up my world

with a myriad colours

And I’m free to fly

your colourful butterfly

Patiently Impatient

There is this empty feeling

That engulfs me 

when you are not near

I can’t quite explain it

But it has me by the throat

It cuffs me and it holds me

Till I feel I might explode

Many Moons Ago

I see you but can I feel you
can I order you like I would
a delicasy I wish to savour
will the universe deliver you...

...unto one that desires a taste of exotic flavour


Yes I said this
and so I must believe it
yet does it apply 
to souls crossed over...

...or is it just a plate, to be devoured for the passover


Can you hear me
is it sweet
the sounds I say 
the words I speak...

...oh should I believe that life is as it is, for keeps


Is it real 
the sun that shines
are they real
the stars at night
can it be the moon thats so bright...

...will shine its light for you and me tonight.

Hook, Line & Sinker

Feeling pensive
stranger than strange
somehow the room
takes on your face

I see you everywhere
yet you're not near 
when I try to concentrate
it feels you are here

I think of a thought
then it feels out of place
I think of a verse 
its clothed in your name

Can you get out of my head 
and somewhere
much closer
so instead of this confusion
I can count myself the wiser

Just one word from you
and I can feel a smile
washing across me
like a sweet embrace

Just one touch 
and I know I'm sold
you have got me 
hook line and sinker
body and soul

Unlimitedly caught
in a net only you hold

Me in You & You in Me

I want to walk with you
In a shower of rain
lay with you in
noonday sunshine and
bask in the summer
of your gaze
as you idly
caress my soul...
for when twilight
becomes night and
we dance under
a silvery moon
in a lovers
eternal solitude.
