RED VELVET DRAGONFLY

When you least expect it what will you do?

When the lightning strikes inside of you…

Will you hold on tight and not let go?

Just close your eyes and let it flow…

Believe in yourself and all that you are,

Then change your scars into the stars…

Burn the bridges that make you stay,

And let their fires light your way…

All that you need is inside of you,

There is no green without the blue…

So wipe the dust that makes you cry,

You will never know unless you try…

Now walk in the room and steal their breath,

And inhale the love until nothings left…

Then look into the eyes of the one you adore,

And see who shines behind that door…

When the stitches of doubt fall apart at the seam,

You release the burdens that bury your dreams…

Possibilities are born in the mind of your sky,

Like riding on the wings of a Red Velvet Dragonfly…

FULL MOON RABBIT

You came into my life when I needed you most,

Like gold to a beggar, I held you close…

Invested in you is what I had to do,

Hoping your love would shine through…

We took the ride and rose to the top,

A thrill of a lifetime I never wanted to stop…

Inside of me is where you belonged,

Sadly, it seems the timing was wrong…

Your life changed and mine stayed the same,

Yet, I still find comfort in this waiting game…

Two steps forward and one-step back,

I barely see light through the doorway crack…

I still want you in spite of it all,

I watch the phone and wait for your call…

There is no fear in what is known,

After loving you, my mind is blown…

Around the world and up in the sky,

Like an old friend with a watchful eye…

Thoughts of you have become a habit,

Under the light of the Full Moon Rabbit…

WITHOUT THEIR LOVE

When someone dies that, you love so much,

Your mind is haunted, by their loving touch…

When your heart is aching in so much grief,

Fall down to your knees and beg for relief…

When the night is over and the dawn is near,

You open your eyes and say hello to fear…

To start another day without a direction,

As you search all day for that lost affection…

Time is ticking and your heart keeps beating,

The daunting thoughts are all but fleeting…

Then the day comes to pack up the past,

Deciding what to keep and what will last…

Each step you take is like wet cement,

If you idle too long, you will start to resent…

As painful as it is to experience this loss,

It is the price of love, no matter the cost…

Every journey begins with a single step,

Now pick up the pieces with all that’s left…

Believe they are loving you from up above,

Where would you be without their love…?
