A lazy summer day meets its end
Nightfall will shadow the moon
Giving dreams their chance to take flight
Else they would die in the darkness too soon
Like the quiet place deep in your soul
As you let them keep and carry you whole

Coloring My World Bright
Sometimes I wonder
Where I'd be
If I didn't have the
Friendship of thee
For seeing me through
My darkest days
And showing such kindness
In so many ways
For holding my hand
And keeping me strong
For making me believe
I could do no wrong
When I found I
Couldn't help myself
You alone were
All my help
For being there
You made me see
Just how important
You are to me
And with gratitude
I want you to know
How you've colored my life
With your brilliant rainbow

A Silence Too Quiet
It was as quiet as I
Allowed the day to be
I was free to do what I wanted
But the silence of the telephone
And having no one to talk to
Changed the peaceful quiet
To lonely solitude
It was as lonely as I
Hoped the day wouldn't be

My Colors, Your Colors
You can play upon my emotions
And touch me with your words
You know you say the sweetest things
That I've ever heard
And even in our silence
Of me you can have a hold
Because the colors shining from you
Illuminate my soul

Until Then
Today I felt unhappy
Until I saw a child
Laughing
Then I laughed too
Today I felt like crying
Until I saw an old mean
Smiling
Then I smiled too
Today I felt lonely
Until I saw two friends
Hug
Then I thought of you

Charade
I saw it in her eyes -
The emptiness
I had felt as less,
Unable to ruse
To the expectation
I needed for me,
For tomorrow to be
A stranger's revelation.

The Pain In My Heart
It's just little me again
Thinking about you to pass the time
It has never been easy for me
To get you off of my mind
So I've finally come to realize
And just wanted you to know
There will always be a part of me
That will never let you go
That part of me will hurt
Each day and this is because
I miss you with all my heart
And it's a pain of absent love
