OURS IS...
Mindful of the days past
my love is ever grateful
how you make smiles last
mindful of the days past
The days of youth fly so fast
yet with you it is so graceful
mindful of the days past
my love is ever grateful
YOUR TURN
ENJOY

ReplyDeleteAn orange sky, black-laced by a tree
ReplyDeleteGently fading to a rosy hue
Changing almost imperceptibly
An orange sky, black-laced by a tree
An unearthly colour scheme I see
For a sky that normally is blue,
An orange sky, black-laced by a tree
Gently fading to a rosy hue
A try anyway.

I wish Monday could be Sunday
earlymorning a thing mof the past.
A day to relax and enjoy

The week it goes so quickly
I never seem to catch up.
I wish Monday could be Sunday

My patience has worn so thin
I can barely feel your heart
And mine is barely open
My patience has worn so thin
And much to my sad chagrin
We may need to split apart
My patience has worn so thin
I can barely feel your heart

Have i reached the pinnacle of pain
And crossed the bridge of deep despair?
Shouid i hope or refrain
Have i reached the pinnacle of pain
Do i continue to search
Fpr someone who just isnt there
Have i reached the pinnacle of pain
And crossed the bridge of deep despair...

I wish you were still here
As a piece of me is missing
Now you are no longer there
I wish you were still here
I think about the both of you
The things we used to share
I wish you were still here
As a piece of me is missing.
