PASSIONS IN THE DARK OF NIGHT

PASSIONS IN THE DARK OF NIGHT

I see you in all of your glory
Intoxicated by your soul
Like something out of a story
You have made me whole
Intoxicated by your scent
The warmth and feel of your skin
By the end of this night I will be spent
As we become one and passions begin
Kissing your body from your lips on down
It's like heaven and a beautiful treat
I begin to hear your beautiful moaning sounds
Like fine chocolate, so delicious and sweet
The ticking of the clock, the quickening of our hearts
Knowing this is so much more than just sex
Truly connected to your soul, where love starts
Breaking quickens as you kiss my neck
I want you now, I want you forever more
Long after this passionate night has come and gone
I want you through it all, the daylight and storms
When we age and grow old as time marches on
You're what I want and all I'll ever need
Something that I'll prove to you each day
Once imprisoned, my lonely soul you freed
You have me for life and I'll never walk away
I messed up before you but that won't happen again
I've learned from my past mistakes
A broken heart you have begin to mend
By your love, you've destroyed the self hate
I can live again because of you
Instead of wanting to die
Amazed by everything you do
I give my all, with nothing to hide
Thank you, my love for this beautiful night
Thank you, for taking in a wounded man
Your kiss and passion has ignited my life
Please never let go of my extended hand
The sun rises in the eastern sky
As your head rests upon my chest
This is paradise, I can now face the world outside
Even though the situation out there is still a mess
But at least I have a second chance that I won't ruin
I have finally found my dream before my death
Me becoming stronger has all been your doing
I'll always fight for you until my last breath.

BESIDE YOU

BESIDE YOU

Drawing in ragged breaths
Exhausted and spent
Taking in the depth
Of what it all meant
Still thinking it's a dream
And I'll wake up
You'll disappear like steam
And I imagined your touch
But I blink my eyes
And you're still there
To my surprise
You really cared
Last night wasn't a fluke
This I still can't believe
I'm right beside you
And it's you I see
This must be paradise
I'm in a afterglow
As the sun begins to rise
Something I've never known
Thank you for accepting me
For taking me in
I thought this would never be
I don't know where to begin
I'm still stunned
That you didn't leave
I'm usually shunned
Like I'm a fat disease
But you didn't do that
I still don't know why
So shocked by the fact
That I began to cry
Not tears of pain
But tears of joy
You stopped the rain
Now  life I can enjoy
Wiping away the bad
In a miraculous night
My heart was iron clad
It melted and came to life
All because of your passion
And your touch and kiss
I never would have imagined
A beauty such as this
And now I'm beside you
You calm all my fears
I know your love is true
Thank you for being here.

BEFORE I DIE

BEFORE I DIE

Before I die, I only want one wish

To feel a passionate embrace

To feel a sensuous kiss

As she caresses my face

I want to feel this heaven

Without it, my life is hell

I want someone who beckons

And makes my emotions swell

I want feel her close to me

Erasing the pain and tears

Finally setting me free

After being in chains for years

Before life leaves my eye

And it all comes to an end

I want to find her before I die

A soul mate, lover and best friend.

THAT'S WHAT FRIENDS DO

THAT'S WHAT FRIENDS DO

When you struggle, I'll struggle with you 
When you're laughing, I'll laugh right along
When you're mad at the world, I'll be mad along with you
When you're crying, I'll cry along with you
When you fall down, I'll be there to pick you up
When you want to quit, I'll tell you to not give up
You're more amazing than what you think
You can achieve whatever you set your mind to
If you ever ask why I always support you
The answer is simple, because that's what friends do.

IT DOESN'T MATTER TO ME

IT DOESN’T MATTER TO ME

You have a past, so do I
Who am I to judge?
You made mistakes, so have I
You don’t have to be perfect to me
Looks don’t matter either
You have a beautiful soul
I’m no supermodel
So my looks aren’t the best
What matters to me is your heart
What you want in life
What you live for
Nothing else matters
I will accept you for who you are
You’re perfectly imperfect
And that’s fine to me
Let’s be imperfect together
In this wide world we see
Grab my hand and never let go
I’ll hold on to you as we make this journey
As our souls merge and we continue to grow
To share everything with you as we grow old.

BROKEN PIECES

BROKEN PIECES

My soul is shattered and broken shards lay on the floor
Never to be put together but thrown in the trash
Painful slivers shine in the light, done for evermore
Slipping from sight, hitting with a loud crash
Seven years bad luck or maybe a lifetime
I'm not sure, I've lost count
Like my chances of love, hope is far behind
Odds I'll never be able to surmount
Don't bother picking them up, you'll just hurt yourself
Like I have, my hands are bloody from tries
Leave them alone, it's too painful for anyone else
I'll just sit in this lonely corner and cry
I'll look at my broken soul, unable to pick it up
Watching it shimmer in the light, unable to be repaired
Trying not to concentrate on the pain that hurts so much
Wishing that life wasn't so cruel and unfair.

ONLY ONE

ONLY ONE

In a world that makes fun of my looks
And points and laughs at my weight
And calls me a geek for my love of books
And tells me my fantasies will never come true
That it's something that will never be
And tells me to be happy so I won't feel so blue
And tells me I'm not a real man for being me
A world where I always seem to finish last
I just can't seem to get ahead
And I get laughed at for being nice and my meaningful acts
And people tell me I should be an asshole instead
At least there's one who doesn't feel that way
One person who doesn't see me as a hopeless case
Someone who never has a hurtful thing to say
Who doesn't think that I'm just nothing but waste
Someone who brings me up instead of putting me down
Someone who sees more in me than I ever could
Someone who gives me some kind of hope
Because of her I believe in this world there's still good
She's the only one and there will be no one else
But it will never be, life can be hard and rough
I guess I have to accept I'll always be by myself
But at least there's one and that will be just enough
Just enough to give me a reason to live
Instead of giving up on everything
It's amazing how sad life can be and is
But she takes away some of that sting
Because she feels when no one else does
I'll still be alone but at least I can go on
And that's what makes my soul abuzz
There may be only one out there
When I thought there were none
Nothing will happen, life's unfair
But at least I know there's at least one.

I WISH I COULD TURN IT OFF

I WISH I COULD TURN IT OFF

I wish I could turn off thoughts of love
Knowing it will never happen to me
But this is mostly what I think of
To find someone who will set me free
I wish I could close my heart from the world
Knowing there will never be no one to give it to
There will be no true love or a special girl
That's life and there's nothing I can do
I wish I could turn off being so kind
In a world that seems to be so cruel
But it's a part of me, I couldn't stop it if I tried
I'll just end up being a lonely old fool
I wish I could turn it all off and become heartless
Because love is dead on this planet earth
Even though sappiness and love does hearken
No woman will ever see me for what I'm worth.

HEARTBEAT

HEARTBEAT

I don't want endless amounts of money
I don't want to be a movie star or athlete
Some people may think it's funny
That's not an ideal life for me
Materials can only go so far
Before it comes to an end
The endless pursuit of it will leave you scarred
And unable to mend
Give me someone to live for
That gives me hope in life
Someone I would die for
As long as she would be alright
Someone who makes my heart beat stronger
And gives me strength
When I can't take it any longer
For her I would go to great lengths
One who will accept me despite my faults
No one is perfect in this world
Someone who has the key to unlock the vault
To my heart where my emotions swirl
I would trade everything I had for that feeling
Of a connection to a beautiful soul
A simple smile would send me reeling
The passion inside me would explode
I would give it all to grow along with her
To spend the good days and bad ones together
To grow old and look back on days that one were
With smiles knowing our promises stood forever
Nothing else matters in this world exept for that
No amount of money would come close to compare
To find that special soul mate before everything goes black
And my lungs could no longer take in air.

AS LIFE LEAVES ME (THE DEATH OF AUSORION)

AS LIFE LEAVES ME (THE DEATH OF AUSORION)

This is my time, I'm fading away
I can't complain, I lived a long life
I fought battles that went on for days
And spent many sleepless nights
I survived the fall of the Old Guard
I saw the Towers of Ice built
I feel accomplished, death won't be hard
I found you, my ever faithful wife
I still remember the day we first met
It was a winter's day, the wind was ice
You were sitting down as you silently wept
As cold as it was, your golden hair outshined the sun
And you looked to me, eyes full of tears
Right then I knew, you were the one
I would wipe then away and ease all your fears
Thank you so much for choosing me
You have made me a happy man
You opened my heart and made me see
The many beautiful things that exist in this land
I still remember our first kiss
It was under the moonlight and stars
When our lips touched, it was pure bliss
You freed my cold heart from its icy bars
I have done nothing to deserve you
A woman so graceful and bold
Who game me her heart and loved me true
When I was in battle I dreamed of you to hold
You are my queen, to you I bow
Don't cry my love, there's not much time left
Only think of the wonderful memories now
And not that I'm closing in on my last breath
Remember the laughs we shared
The nights of passion we had
The adventures we dared
Think of the good and not the bad
You gave birth to my beautiful offspring
Their names will be mighty, written in the skies
My son and daughter, untold glory they will bring
And raise Tamarosa from its quick demise
My one last wish is to look at your face
For you to kiss me one last time
Take me to a beautiful place
Before darkness forever fills my mind
I will love you always, even after my death
You were my warrior queen, so full of fire
And even as I take my last breath
Your kiss still fills me with passion and desire
Goodbye, my love, I die old and satisfied
Only because you I have found
As life leaves me and sight leaves my eyes
My love for you won't leave, it will always abound.
