Life but a Dream I dreamt about you last night Again, what this world denies dreams make true Showing that this place never out of your sight And what it hides in another realm find you. And this dream stirred me to reach you here When you answered that dream became real So, the border between us should not fear For the permanency of our love reveal. And life is but a dream the bard does tell So, your beauty both realms transcend For when your love in my heart does dwell Our pa...

Melody **** Let me make this simple and brief Like the birds who sing naturally Since you left Time has been a thief Stealing those moments you were next to me. **** For everyone else this Earth their playground Where their fantasies on this stage play But this stage only empty if you’re not around But what a romantic play if you only did stay. **** There are heaving oceans and brilliant meadows Roads travelled and where few have tread Where the Raven beckons behind the shado...

The Other Side **** I saw the other side and tried to draw me in So, when I say I want to be with you why stay? Yet, I pulled back into this place but no peace win Except you saying from my family can't go away. **** I saw a white world and I knew the next place One day, I know I won't be able to fight back But I fought even when there could see your face I should have let go, maybe the courage I lack. **** Easy to say because you didn't want this to be But, tonight, I know this strength would s...

In this Rhyme With your spirit gone what else remain? This world cannot its riches boast For a jewel in sorrow's light but plain When Life takes what you love the most. I am but Death undone, an empty shell A ghost where once my blood did flow And doomed this lonely world to dwell This burial ground no other death need know. The most vivid sounds I hear but mute to me Its brightest colors are only coldly dull The only taste I have is for eternity To take me from this place Life...

Sonnet 343 (Your Love) How sweet your voice that lightens up my day When robins sing your chords their notes inspire A perfect melody their music play Arousing in this man still more desire. How wonderful your eyes that stir my soul I look into as mirrors of your heart And this day's light, through them, does clearly show I learn that, from your sight, can’t live apart. How heavenly your walk is on Earth's land Massaging fawning breezes in your wake Your spritely sway where my s...

Sonnet 342 (Your Love I Know) The boughs are bare where late the birds once sang And, too, the garden cold where flowers grew And gone the warmth the day too me once brang Those sunny days that I had spent with you. And darkness falls where once the day so bright The night too quickly ushered in its place This world is best when in your eyes alight And winter thawing where your beauty trace. And you the sun where my own soul does live Like birds that always sing their melody So ...

Sonnet 339 (Time's Hand) And soon the steely hand of Time will come To coldly grasp the one who makes life sweet Now like a winter tree whose leaves succumb My life a barren place where once complete. The honeyed melodies that birds once taught Will strike the chords of loneliness in me The blissful warmth the morning sun once brought May still rise high but darkness all I'll see. Where once we lay before the ocean's shore And as we kissed the waves did gently sigh These fawning...
