No Other Way





He could never get
The love that he wanted
For long

So he had to focus
On that
Which was always there
Instead

Love Gives You Wings So You Can Crash Into A Mountain




To confess your love
Ten years too late
Does lead one to
Agonizing fate

Last shot at love
Or alone he'll end
But at least he confessed
To his best friend

My Old Haunts







Stars
Shone light upon what we once were
Hope
Died the day I lost that girl

Daneurysm





If I can't have
The woman I love
Then I can at least have
The consciousness
From which she springs

Beyond All Reason




Love unrequited
Is the greatest pain I've known
To realize how long I've loved her
But she no longer loves me so
My heart, once shining
Now leaks with cracked love's dying flow
And knowing how much I've failed
Does nothing to help agony go

The Scars That Won't Heal



No one for me
My dear, good friend I've known
So I let you go
And remain alone
What else to do
Bur mourn over you
And what we were
Or yet could be

Not the body





I see form, awake
I sense feeling
Sensations reeling
No greater mistake
Than to take
It for me
But I am its steward
And advocate

What to Hitch Your Wagon To





What comes, must go
Whether fast or slow
But consciousness is always there
You know?
