Blue Moonbeams

Kiss me
But never goodbye.
Hold me
Outside of your dreams.
Touch me
Not just with a sigh.
Love me
But leave
Those blue moonbeams.

Shopping List

I saw them.
In a supermarket aisle.
Both wore a 'Somebody loves me'
Smile.
Constantly they hugged and kissed.
Had something
Not on my shopping list.

Sea Of Love

You deserted our ship
That we sailed together
When your love
Had run aground.
Then tossed me your sympathy
When I hit stormy weather
Too late
I had already drowned.

Kissed

Kiss me
Your magic
That makes my heart smile.
But do not miss me
When our love's blown out to sea.
Because now our lives
Have been worthwhile.
Whatever happens
We are free.

Dead Bird

Dead bird who will fly no more
Yet in vivid dream will glide and soar
Dead love, my heart will beat no more
Yet my Icarus will still ascend
Memories are all that are left us my friend.

Songbird

Songbird who is it for?
The death of love
Or new mornings' birth
That feeling that ran from my door
You captured
And retained its worth
Though lost forever to me
Two young lovers
Stand under your tree.

Rainbow

I love her.
How much she'll never know
She stands on a rainbow in the sky.
I touch her softly just with my eye
But kiss her soul
And say goodbye.
Until sun and rain do meet again
My heart will wait to fly.

Background Music

Cantata of our days
That symphony true love plays.
Sonata on the shore
Our moon will wax and wane
- No more.
Your aria in my head
As lifeblood softly seeps
- An oratorio for the dead.
Our background music
Never sleeps.

Kiss Me

Kiss me
Before it's too late.
Tomorrow waits at the gate
- To take you away.
So hold me today.
And let's melt in dreams.
By bluest moonbeams.
Before you are gone.
And our sun has shone.
Kiss me deep
And true.
Before memories
Weep for you.
