Dark Side

For one so young, you've been through storms that have sunk the hearts of many
for one so young, you've beheld what ne'er a word could paint

I never met one so wise beyond her years
I never met one so likened unto me, and yet so unlike me
I longed to hold you in my arms
To console you, and thereby, bring the magic back into your life

But in the moment that I do, I become more .... and less
Caught up in that larger entity that is love
And in that moment also, my heart is gripped by a darkness
One that's blacker than existence itself, and weightier than life!

My heart's always harbored the noblest of intentions
But then tis said that, "the road to hell is paved with good intentions"
I never intended to add to your sorrows
Only that all troubles be far from your heart


Now forgive me for being so blind
But know you that I will be better
For my heart will break the spell
And my mind shall dispel the illusion

Then will I be, your light at the end of the tunnel
The lighthouse that'll guide you unto safer shores
Now! take hold of my hand ....
And come

Love's Demise

I cried out to the heavens!

That we may be joined together!

That our stars be crossed for all time!

That for good, or for worse, I may share in thine life.

But in vain my tears were wet, on heaven's great cheek!

For thine angel hath plucked thee from my arms

Never, shall I wipe a tear from thine eyes

Never, to share in thine sweet and delicate fellowship!

Thou hath eluded me all my waking moments

Hope had I, for a life of bliss with thee

But when I finally have fulfillment in my grasp

It kicks me in the face!

Now must I lay to rest my hope

In the Graveyard of hopes

For though thine beauty holdeth sway in mine heart

Yet knowest I, that thou art withheld from me.

You call me Sam, and behold me a dear friend

But I thirst for more ...

To mean more ...

To be more ....

My heart broke even as I lifted my face to the heavens

Though my resolve was strong, and my mind steady...

My heart remained a well of sorrows

And mine eyes, a fountain of tears

And now it was done 

Heaven by it's soft gale and teary skies

I with my shattered heart and teary eyes

Heaven and I, wept together ......

Most Sacred Fire

Most sacred fire the burneth mightly in living breast!

Ye kindled first above

Emongst the eternal spheres and lamping skies

Thence poured into men, which men call love

Not that same, which does base affections rise, in brutish minds

And filthy lust inflame

But that sweet fit, which does true beauty love

And chooseth virtue for his dearest dame

From whence springs all honour, and never dying fame!

In The Beginning ...
