| Your innocence is a stinging light,
It cuts to my rotten heart.
I run, I hide from your smile,
Because you still have a hope and love behind it.
I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy
Of anything you are.
So leave me be, run from me;
I'm a darkness that can only consume
Or die, burned within the light
Beaming from your happy eyes.
Don't let me look into them,
Don't let me come near you,
Magnificent and innocent.
I'm not worthy.

| Together
There was a loud cry, and I fell into the deep.
Dark and cold, but not alone, I waited for your hand.
I slipped further, slipped and struck rock,
Jagged and cutting, fighting, to make me sand.
My hope floated above my eyes, and I keep
Standing, sinking, wishing to follow my mind.
I'm trapped, trapped in rushing emotion, slow
Falling in flowing, slowing time.
But your arm, it reaches now. You see me-
But this is a shadow, illusion of what used to be.
There is a loud cry, and you fall into the deep.

| Path of Snow
I follow footsteps melting in the snow
To try and walk the path you made before
Yet mud and rocks confuse the time I know
The scenery an ever changing shore
I thought I'd made it to the place you stay
That spiritual escape you led me to
On one gentle unassuming cold day
We walked there and I stood, just held by you
I found the spot where both of us has stood
We sang and breathed and caught a glimpse of God
But now that I've returned to it, the wood
Lies silent, like my journey was for naught.
Whatever sorrow I had known before
Is nothing to this unfamiliar shore. | | |
| This is a song and a poem. I have no title for it yet but it describes how I feel right now, about love in general.

When all the lovers become old,
Those hands you held turn so cold,
What was it you really needed?
What is it you want tonight?
When all the beats your heart beat slow,
When sunshine blinds your eyes with snow,
What was it we really wanted?
What is it I want tonight?
I think I know, I think you know,
I think deep down inside,
I know you feel the way I feel,
I know you feel tonight.
We're sinking...
I'm thinking it's too late
To return to innocence,
To undo what living did.
When all your dreams become a lie,
Those hopes you held tight fade and die,
What was it you really needed?
What is it you want tonight?
When all I have to give is me:
Faithless, broken, incomplete,
Was this what we really wanted?
What is it you need tonight?
I think I know, I think you know,
I think deep down inside,
I know you feel the way I feel,
I know you feel tonight.
We're sinking...
I'm thinking it's too late
To return to innocence,
To undo what living did.
When all I have to give is me...
Can what I am be what you need? | | |
| (This is more a song than a poem- are you surprised to hear from me? I haven't posted in forever.) Answer
Sudden bursts of snow and ice- why now?
The phone lines are busy- why now?
If you think God's lost his sense of irony...
Racing, always two days late- why now?
I'm waking up so terrified- why now? I wish I knew,
I wish I knew
This soothing rush of desperate love- why now?
The hand I won't let go of- why now?
If you think God's lost his sense of irony...
You watch me as I breathe- why now?
After everything I've done- why now?
I wish I knew,
I wish I knew But if I have your love
If some things can be undone
If I have your love
Never will I wonder why again. | | |
