I Miss You

Memories of yesterdays
Washing over me like rain.
My hands are freezing
Remembering the warmth
When our hands were clasped.
My eyes glaze over
As I remember your face.
Your eyes like black holes,
Drawing me in,
Leaving me lost.
Your voice melts my heart,
You had me from the beginning.
I don’t want to forget,
I can’t take the loss.
As our eyes meet,
I know this is how
It is meant to be.
No darkness,
No pessimism,
No endings.
The glass is overflowing,
Blinding is the light
The only step is forward.
Counting down the moments
Until I have you in my arms again.
Together we’ll walk
Into eternity.

Together in Paradise

Not all songs are happy,
This song might even make you cry.
I watched as he held her hand,
Kissed her goodnight, and walked away.

Not all songs are happy,
This song doesn’t have a happy ending.
She watched him leave,
Cried to herself, for she knew this was the last.

He said he loved you,
Why couldn’t you listen?
She said this just isn’t right,
What are you doing?

He watches as the lights draw nearer,
He doesn’t even bother to scream,
As the cars collide.
“I already told her goodbye.” He silently prays.
“God watch over her, it’s your show now.”

He said he loved you,
Why couldn’t you listen?
She said this just isn’t right,
What are you doing?

Kissed by an angel,
She knew what she had lost.
He tried to save her,
But her heart belonged to another.
Quietly observing it all, the other storms
“So this is what you do behind my back?”
Beaten so bad, who now is she?
Unrecognizable, she falls asleep.

He said he loved you,
Why couldn’t you listen?
She said this just isn’t right,
What are you doing?

Finally together,
Neither happy how,
Their spirits intertwined for eternity,
He holds her hand,
She holds him tight.
One last time,
They stare into the other’s eyes.
“I love you”, now together we go.

Make Me Whole

Here's my first shot at writing a song.. I don't have any kind of a tune in my head, since I can't play any instruments, but here's my shot.


Caught in a vortex of unyielding pain
You scream to me,
Desperately crying out to me to come to the light.
I’m so lost in this darkness, Where is the light?!

A shot in the dark, I feel nothing more
My silent plea, where have you gone?
Have you abandoned me? Was this not hell enough?
Demonic shadows dancing over my body,
Why won’t you save me?

I’m alive, but I can’t feel you
I’m alive, but I can’t see you.
Touch my life, make me whole
I owe you my all, I give you my life.

A hand from nowhere, You stretched out to grab me.
Lost in the depths, Lord you pursue me.
I’m numb with pain, Yet I can feel it slipping away.
Coming back to my senses, The shadows are leaving.

The pain remains, Yet I hold onto You.
Rescued from the Pit,
From the nothingness that has taken over my life.
You show no signs of pain being erased,
Yet I’m drawn to You, and I cannot look away.

I’m alive, I can finally feel you
I’m alive, I can finally see you
Touch my life, make me whole
I owe you my all, I give you my life.

I’m alive, I can finally feel you (Your warm embrace)
I’m alive, I can finally see you (The veil torn away)
Touch my life, make me whole (I need only you)
I owe you my all, I give you my life. (My God, you are mine)

Here Comes the Rain Again

I can feel it again
…Finally
I can feel your love
Washing over me
Maybe that’s why
I love the rain so much
I feel like my sinful stains
Are falling away.
I can feel myself being cleaned
Renewed.
I feel alive again,
Something that has become so rare
The void is gone
The bridge is restored
Your hand reaching out to me
Something I did not expect.
Something beautiful
Something new
I can feel your warm embrace
A touch of strong security
Reassurance coursing through my veins.
Open the floodgates of Heaven
Let the rain pour on down.
Restore my heart,
O my God.
You are mine,
As I am Your’s.
Wrap me in Your strong arms,
Forgive me,
As I am finally made clean.
