 IS THAT YOU

​           HEY HAVE I SEEN YOU,
              MAYBE ONCE OR TWICE BEFORE.
         MAYBE YOU WERE JUST WALKING OUT.
          OR I WAS JUST WALKING IN THE DOOR.
 
                  YOU SEEMED SO DIFFERENT.
                     YET I KNEW IT WAS YOU.
                  DIDN,T HAVE TIME TO TALK.
                   OR OUR PASTS TO REVIEW.
 
                     DID YOU EVER WONDER.
          WHY IT HAD TO TURN OUT THIS WAY.
FUNNY, THOUGHT I WAS THINKING ABOUT YOU.
                        JUST THE OTHER DAY.
 
                          FADED FRIENDSHIPS.
                  THAT DISAPPEAR WITH TIME.
                 CONFLICTING PERSONALITIES.
                 THAT JUST NEVER DID RHYME.
 
                     POSSIBILY WE NEVER MET.
    BUT THEN AGAIN I DON’T THINK THAT’S TRUE.
          IT’S VERY OBVIOUS YOU DID KNOW ME.
              AND I DEFINETLY DID KNOW YOU.
 

​ THE TRUTH

​  THE TIME HAS COME----TO SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH.
 
  BELIEVE WHAT YOU MAY----IS THERE REALLY A FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH.
 
 
  WHERE IS IT WRITTEN---WHERE DOES IT SAY.
 
  THAT WHAT HAPPENED----DID HAPPEN THAT WAY.
 
 
   TRUTH OR FABLE---CAST EITHER IN PROSE OR STONE.
 
   MANY THAT WROTE IT----WROTE ONLY WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN TOLD.
 
 
   PHILOSOPER’S , SOOTHSAYER’S---ALL HAD SOMETHING TO SAY.
 
   WAS IT WHAT HAD HAPPENED----OR WAS IT THEIR WAY.
 
 
   SEARCHING FOR ANSWERS----THE TRUTH ALWAYS REMAINS UNKNOWN.
 
   MAY NOT BE AS WRITTEN----MAY NOT BE AS SHOWN.
 
 
   HIDDEN AWAY BY TIME----UNABLE TO BE FOUND OUT.
 
   HIDDEN AWAY FOREVER----THE TRUTH ALWAYS REMAINS IN DOUBT.

​RESTORE THE FAITH

ETERNAL GARDENS.  WITH MAGNIFICENT WATERFALLS.
HIDDEN AWAY IN TIME.  AWAITING YOUR CALL.
SPARKLING WATER.  GARDENS WITH COLORS ABLAZE.
LEAVE YOU WONDERING.  IS IT REAL OR JUST A HAZE.
 
CONSTANT SUNSHINE.  WITH A HEAVY MORNING DEW.
NOT EASY TO FIND.  AVAILABLE TO FEW.
 
POOLS OF WATER.  REFLECTING FROM THE SUN.
SEEN BY FEW.  YOU MAY BE THE CHOSEN ONE.
 
SEARCHING AND SEARCHING.  DIFFICULT TO FIND.
MAY BE LOCKED AWAY.  DEEP IN YOUR MIND.
 
RESTORE YOUR FAITH.  PROCLAIM THAT YOU CAN.
RELEASE YOUR MENTAL BURDEN. PROCEED TO THAT EXCHANTING LAND.
 
 A VERY SELECT FEW.  WHO HAVE RESTORED THEIR FAITH.
ONCE WITHIN IT’S REACH.  CAN NOW UNLOCK THE GATE.

      ALL ALONE

 Twisted memories, That reveal the past.   
Constantly haunt you.  And leave you aghast.  

Moments of passion, That fail to appear.
Leave’s you searching for answers, Can’t delay the tears.

Spirits that ignite you, Fail to leave you ablaze.
Your heads up your Ass, Lost in a total haze. 

  Tormented relationships, That contaminate your desires.  
Causes you heartache, Extinguishes the fire. 

   A legend in your own mine, Always full with total confusion.   
You view your life, As a total illusion. 

   All dressed up, And Nowhere to go.  
​Your lost in time, Your ALL ALONE.
