Voices in the Night

voices in the night

keeping me awake

wishing you were by my side

holding me close

voices in the night

will one be yours

calling my name

i hear the call of the night

the stars are shining bright

i can see you smile in the dark

the moon shining down

bathing us in her light

with a kiss between

a lovers delight

and sorrows sweet

parting

voices in the night

keeping me awake

thinking about you

Black Hearted Trickery

black hearted trickery

and dark bleeding wounds

we all walk through the

flames of hell

together or a part

burnt feet and broken hearts

thanks for the wound

thanks for the brokenness

maybe next time the sword

will miss

maybe the fires will

burn forever more

and my tears will just

go off in steam

black hearted trickery

and dark bleeding wounds

another knife in my back

another burn and broken heart

Flying High

im flying high

and soaring though the sky

i can see you down below

looking so small

i fly with the Ravens wings

so sleek and black

over looking the battle

i soar with Morrighan

going one by one

to the brave souls

who are now done

you stand so tall

your shell now gone

your sword still in your hand

on the ground

a young healer comes

to cry for the fallen

her brother lay slain

fallen on the land

her cry is the only sound

heard across the land

a young girl's tears shed

for a warrior and friend

a brother never to be known again

i fly so high

looking down on the carnage

the land barren of all souls

save for the healer...

with no one to heal

Lovers for a Night

I'm looking for a shining star

I'm looking for a wish to come true

a wish for me and you

a night together

under the stars

no fighting

just a peace in our hearts

my love for you

and yours for me

we will walk on the battle field

side by side

children baptized in blood

in lives long gone by

standing back to back

knowing the other is there

when the battle is done

and we walk away from the carnage

it is in each others arms we find solace

as the night wanes to day

we part and walk our separate paths

to find one another again

on another battle field

My Son

i see you standing there

so tall and confident in your self

just waiting to spread you wings

and fly

i know some day you will

will fly far from here

and me ....

i watch you walk the crooked path

the path of life

with its twists and turns

i can only hope that

i have taught you well

i can only pray

that the Lord and Lady

will guide your feet

i can see its going

to be a bumpy ride

with many hills and valleys

as i watch you grow

and walk your path

i can only pray that

your feet remain firm on your path

with all the bumps and bruises

that we get from life

i know that you will do well

that you will learn what you need to

now a young man

soon to be a man with

all the responsibilities of life

walk tall my son

keeping your feet on your path

The Reality of You

the days slowly go by

one at a time

hour by hour

minute by minute

year by year

and season following season

you are in my heart

you flit in my thoughts

in my dreams

and in my thoughts

you sit there

your hand out for me to hold

the reality of you

is more wonderful than dreams

can suggest

the reality of me

a mere shadow by far

like the day enshrouded by the mists

one day melds into another

i can see you clearly

the day is gone

yet there you are

waiting for me

i reach for you

you hold me close

i wake to the reality

of your strong loving arms around me

the mists fade

you are still with me

day by day

year after year

season following season

i wake to feel you close to me

close to my heart

forever a part of my soul

Dreams, Wishes and Lies

wishing you could be here

with me tonight

to see all the stars in the night sky

it wouldnt be the stars that id be watching

my eyes would be locked on you

full of wonder and love

love for you that might

never be told

wonder that you might

feel the same

AH the dreams that we dream

and the wishes that we make

the lies we tell ourselves

will it all lead us down a sad little path

will it lead me to your arms

will you find your way to me

i dream a dream

i wish a wish

and tell my self lies

just to make it through

a dream of you

a wish for two

a lie to fill my soul

a dream for you

a wish to come true

and a lie that can become the truth

how silly of me to lie to me

but the wish is in my heart

and the dream ....

the dream of two

could be so real

the wish in my heart

that could never be a lie

wishing you could be here this night

dreaming in the night

telling my self it could all be true....
