Face the Day

there was a time

i was fearless

nowadays i’m

just cheerless

life has thrown

a few curve balls

blindsided me

and made me crawl

i’m gun shy now

don’t ask me how

to face the day

to make the way

but there’s something

that gets me through

and undercurrent

of courage too

and laughter finds

it’s way to me

on rainy days

it helps me see

but I’m gun shy now

don’t ask me how

to face the day

to make the way

i’m just a bit gun shy now

i don’t know how

i face the day

and make my way

Gonna Work Anyhow

just want a reflection from you
of a me that doesn't vanish on cue
frighteningly transparent me
relying on you to see

a shadow behind me won't do
i need to see the colors, the hue
in your eyes, in your smile
to feel that this is worthwhile

so look at me now
we're gonna to work anyhow
take a look here and see
your reflection in me

whispers get lost in the breeze
they're only meant to tease
scream so i can hear your voice
tell me i've made the right choice

so look at me now
we're gonna to work anyhow
take a look here and see
your reflection in me

A Wedding Band

the sweetest love i knew with you
charming musical notes for two
our weekends were not long enough
to satisfy our love and lust

both wanting to be saved by each
no wonder that we failed to reach
happily ever after and
a fairy tale with a wedding band

the miles did not matter much
though impatient for each others touch
you packed me up and took me with
my life before seemed just a myth

both wanting to be saved by each
no wonder that we failed to reach
happily ever after and
a fairy tale with a wedding band

having only you to comfort me
a burden i would come to be
i will not forget that awful night
you let me go after our last fight

both wanting to be saved by each
no wonder that we failed to reach
happily ever after and
a fairy tale with a wedding band

but we loved each other true and deep
our memories i'll forever keep
though that was then and long ago
i cherish that you helped me grow

both wanting to be saved by each
no wonder that we failed to reach
happily ever after and
that fairy tale and wedding bands

Wrinkle With Me

When I breathe in, I can smell your chemistry.
And I can feel our density.
You breathe out and I can hear your intentions.
And I can see our dimensions.

Could you be present for one bit?
At this moment, could you commit?
What does it feel like to just be
Present in this wrinkle with me?

The taste of you is misty morning raindrops.
You whisper and smile, my brain throbs.
My breath quickens as your hand sweeps down my side.
I look up and I know you've tried.

Could you be present for one bit?
At this moment, could you commit?
What does it feel like to just be
Present in this wrinkle with me?

Time stands still in this moment with me with you.
The sands of it sprinkled in your eyes of blue.
What took you so long to get here with me now?
Time is ours, in this moment I'll show you how .

Could you be present for one bit?
At this moment, could you commit?
What does it feel like to just be
Present in this wrinkle with me?

Present for just one bit.
Why don't you commit?
It feels good just to be
You present with me.
