I sit alone
I watch the sun
It seems to smile on everyone
How warm the sand beneath my feet
The waves they lap as if to greet
Such beauty all around I see
So amazing that it's all for free
The sun it seems to warm my heart
Not easy will it be to part

So alone I feel without you here
My love for you is always near
Taken away before your time
My heart seems lost as it does pine
I see you as I walk these sands
As I remember so fondly your warming hands

What I'd give to see you once again
My heart would shine and start to sing
How comforting for me to dream of you
But my heart seems to have a different view
It knows you won't come back to me
It takes a while for me to see
My love is strong and will always be
Such precious times for you and me

As I watch the sun sink oh so low
The time wasn't right for you to go
I live to face another day
Knowing how you'd want it that way
Time can't change - can't bring you back
My memory is strong and right on track
Thoughts of you will come and go
In my heart you'll be safe with me, I know

The gulls take flight
The moon is full
I turn and walk up to the hill
I stand and let the moon reflect
On times we had - I'll never forget
Sleep peacefully and think of me
You're part of the moon, the sun and the sea

Wonderful thoughts here. Welcome to Passions.

Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats

On The Sea
Vertical Horizon
from the cd:Live Stages

No fog clear in the moonlight
The stars shine so bright now's the time
I close my eyes - soft wind touch my face
Cool sand upon the place where I once kissed you
And held you close
Now I will reach for the stars
Because Oh my love, that's where you are


Chorus:
Though the storms of black night rage on
I still see your face
I still feel your lips on mine
And though my heart feels all alone without you
I still hear you sing to me
I still hear your voice on the sea

Waves crash break the silence
Gulls cry a song of lament
I walk on through the stormy night
The air cries flash of anger
Dark night enshrouds the stranger all alone without you
Now I will reach for the stars
Because Oh my love, that's where you are

Chorus

No fog clear in the moonlight
The stars shine so bright now's the time
I close my eyes - soft wind touching my face
Cool sand upon the place where I once kissed you
And held you close
Now I will reach for the stars
Because Oh my love, that's where you are



Some find subtlety in strangers
some find subtlety alone
Your eyes,you see everything
my eyes,I see its all together now
and I know.
