Cold Meadow


Don't you Cry For me Mother
Wipe The Tears From your Eyes
I'm no longer alone
Outside

Its Cold Out In The Meadow
But I've got Me a Coat 
Of Many colours
And now My Time has come
and I am Worth it 
Because I've waited For it 

Though many times I've come up Short
God Never Left me
And In Salty tears I no longer drown

But I had to go through it
For my soul needed the flooding 
because my past 
was stained with Blood

Its Hard 
To Let Go
I know, I've Cried 
but you don't have much time 
so wrap yourself in righteous arms 
And Be warm
Warmth In The Cold Meadow

Maybe


I miss you
I can't move on
And heavens know I'm trying
I wish you didn't get that mad at me

Maybe we'd still be together now
And maybe it would have been me holding your hands
At the altar

Maybe you'd be wearing your favorite stone topaz
I wonder if he knows
I wonder if he tells you how much he loves you
And that you are the best thing to have ever happened to him 
Or that he sits for hours staring at the skies creating cloud images of you 

Maybe we weren't meant to be
Maybe I was meant to love you
And grow old longing to touch you

I'd lie and say am fine
But I'm hallow without you
There is no passion for anything
I try to hold my heart together
to keep it from shattering into a  million pieces 

I keep silent 
but silence is violent
when you are hurting 
You say hurtful stuff

Maybe you lied about you're marriage to hurt me
And if you see me again 
You'd learn to love me again
Maybe

Broken Vial In the Meadow


Broken Vial In The Meadow


I kissed your lips one last time
and i knew you were no longer mine
I gazed into your eyes
As the lights fell from the sky

Weep for yourself Troubled eyes
you've seen the rise and the fall 
Of your parents 
infinite romance
on carpet floor 
they danced in defeat
so...

Weep for yourself Troubled eyes
for the eggs you have broken 
mother hen is warning me
sit still and you'll find
in the barn 
next to a borrow
Maryann with milk in a vial

bottoms up
poison in my blood
the demons clouded my wisdom
and love was hiding behind my tongue

So i spit it out
choking on broken bottles
the pain was too much to swallow
and with fist filled with fear 
I clenched her throat

Now weep for yourself Maryann
like knives her knees fell to the ground
with lips dripping blood 
i kissed her 
And I whispered i love you

You said nothing
but i see you choking
and tripping over you tongue
The words you hold within
I love you too 
were spoken in your tears

Now we are like spirits 
walking away fading into the meadow
so may our past be a candlelight
that paves the way
And never forget me
ever.
