Trees

~The calm, it washes over me; in that quiet place where I can fly free.
~Trees rustling their melancholy song; never forget to keep moving along.
~Don't falter, don't dawdle, run to the light; it's your life, it's worth the fight.
~Your strength & your peace are trapped within; selfish indulgence, embrace your sin.

Sentinal trees, looming above; what do they know of mortal love?
Seeking for answers, face tilted above; what do they know of mortal love?

~Unwaveringly strong, unbending & proud; the thoughts in my head are much too loud.
~I sit below, gazing up at the trees; their wisdom & beauty bring me to my knees.
~Their liberating song--how I wish to sing; my voice is muted, what pain it brings.
~Electric air, wind dancing with my hair; this renewed fire is too much to bear.

Sentinel trees, looming above; what do they know of mortal love?
Seeking my answers, face tilted above; what do they know of mortal love?

~The silence engulfs me, trying to mend; learn from the trees, don't give in & bend.
~Breathe it all in, can't give up & die; you'll never know unless you try.
~You are who you pretend to be; be sure that you choose carefully.
~Life is worth living--I should be dancing, but it won't wait for me; hesitate & you'll be left, waiting beneath the trees.

Sentinel trees, looming above; what do they know of mortal love?
Seeking my answers, face tilted above; what do they know of mortal love?

Lives On Different Frequencies...

~Little star, I can't catch you; why do I even try?
~Sometimes just in passing through, we brighten each other's lives.


~Moments shared & laughter traded; it makes it all worthwhile.
~So burned out & jaded; sometimes we forget to smile.


~We don't know where we're going, only where we've been.
~The repetition's trying; it's good to have a friend.


~The world, it beats down on me; my patience wearing thin.
~Can't be all the places you want to be; try not to lose your grin.



~I think it's all about finding that place where we belong; sometimes lives on different frequencies can still play the same song.
~Keeping grip so desperately, trying to hold on; remember lives on different frequencies can still play the same songs.


~People drift in on the wind; some pass through with the seasons.
~Some are there through thick & thin; some fade for their own reasons.


~Connecting with a lucky few; twin souls passing in the night.
~Without question they are there for you, through all the wrongs & rights.


~Stealing all the fun you can; take it day by day.
~It isn't chance or happenstance; some will even stay.


~Accepting us for who we are; not who we wish to be.
~Leaving impressions like a scar; ripples on the sea.



~I think it's all about finding that place where you belong; sometimes lives on different frequencies can still play the same song.
~Keeping grip so desperately, trying to hold on; remember sometimes different frequencies can still play the same songs.


~Without warning life's torrential rain--it sweeps us in new directions.
~Shining throughout the laughter & pain--graced by those connections.


~They say it's better to have loved & lost, than to have never felt at all.
~Even with all it may have cost, I'd rather take the fall.


~Through all of life's insanity, it's hard to find the time.
~So easy to be washed away; some get left behind.


~But some, they will come back to you; forget the future--live in the now.
~No regrets, treasure those precious few; fortunate to bear their mark--let them show you how.



~I think it's all about finding that place where you belong; sometimes lives on different frequencies can still play the same song.
~Keeping grip so desperately, trying to hold on; never forget that lives on different frequencies can still play the same songs.
