Sweet Dreams

When i close my eyes at night,
If i hold them together tight,
I can see my love right there with me,
And for just a moment,
I feel happy.

Until i open them again,
And remember where i am,
You're here with me,
My love,
Megan.

Then and Now

Walking through places,
Where we spent time together,
How happy you made me,
In times that were better,
Reminiscing on your smile,
Which i may see again never,
The tears keep on falling,
Because I will love you forever.

Dedication

And so it seems,
That if it isn't one thing,
It is a dozen others,
But through it all a promise,
I made to my lover,
Yet even more to myself,
Because i truly love her,

It consists of this,
Plus so much more,
For two simple hearts,
This world has torn,
These oaths i've made,
Silently sworn,
Upon my life,
Of this hope forlorn.

I Would

Once upon a time,
When i was your man,
I would kiss your lips,
I would hold your hand,
I would rub your belly,
When you had cramps,
You made me feel,
Like no one can.

Now i hurt so much,
For those simple things,
The only place i find them,
Is in my dreams,
And so i pray,
For eternal sleep,
To be with you,
And no longer weep.

Dead or Alive

I am to be left,
With nothing right,
Still seeking justice,
In my fight,

The struggle on,
From day to day,
I've dug this grave,
In which i lay,

Buried alive,
Resting in peace,
Though your eyes,
May never see.

Home

Home again,
Without my friend,
Nothing here,
For me you left,
It isn't right,
But such is life,
And so my love,
I bid you,
Goodnight.

That Thing

For a long time i searched,
And once found,
For it i yearned,
But never could i fathom,
The lessons i would learn,

Love does hurt,
So much more than it might seem,
The pain it causes far outweighs,
Any happiness it brings,

A life led with sorrow,
And ended by my dreams,
It's the only place i find content,
Until i wake up,
In silent screams,
With tears that fall,
To nothingness,
No solace does this world deem,
For me,
To be unworthy of love,
Employs my destiny
