I Can't Sleep

I can't sleep. My mind is spinning with tormenting memories of you.
Your voice carries through times corridors to whisper softly upon waking ears in sleepless solitude.
How is it that a moments glimpse can flood my senses with overwhelming familiarity,  as if it was only yesterday I lay lost in obsession, passion and love of you.
It appears that perhaps a part of me had and will always remain in that dark euphoric place where I was me and you were everything.
I miss you still.

The All-American Rejects - It Ends Tonight

Summer Rain

Certain solace brought in crisp melancholy summer rain on mornings like this,
Bring you back to me, here in liquid cool scents of peaceful silence.
That oh so beautiful gray that overcasts the day and here we go again in dark red sway.
Back and forth, around and round, that rhythmic silent game we play.
I feel the trip and I feel the drop, I feel the fall and I feel the earth stop.
Piano keys so soft in the wind of the quiet storm. Can you hear the stars? I once could not.
Playing that wretched tune that haunts my dreaming wake.
So beautifully horrid, violent in timeless memory quake.

Lost Decay

In evenings shadow... the time of Ives,
Steal subtle little forgotten smiles.
To keep the fall the absent died,
And lay in disconnected ties.
For just a day to hold the sway,
And hope to find the long lost way,
For quiet moments caught astray,
Cannot catch close that lost decay.

I'm Moving On

Sigh... I'll be glad when I can sing this song.

"I'm Moving On"
by Rascal Flatts

I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I'm at peace with myself
I've been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
I'm movin' on

I've lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different but they're always the same
They mean me no harm but it's time that I face it
They'll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong
I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on
At last I can see life has been patiently waiting for me
And I know there's no guarantees, but I'm not alone
There comes a time in everyone's life
When all you can see are the years passing by
And I have made up my mind that those days are gone

I sold what I could and packed what I couldn't
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town
I've loved like I should but lived like I shouldn't
I had to lose everything to find out
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road
I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on
