Sleepless Night

How well did you sleep tonight?
What dreams you've devised?
The day looks bright ahead,
Can we walk and talk then?
You know I never pray,
But I hope you're here to stay,
I know my faults have been a pain,
I long to break away,
I thank you all the same,
You're the reason I keep trying every day,
And I dream that someday,
We will have what I wrecked,
Home,
Home,
Home.

Reflections

You walk with no direction,
You a goal to meet,
You hold your breath and hope that life,
Will maybe take it's time,
Don't look across your shoulder,
This ain't a school day race,
Look at what you've reached,
An open mindset is all it takes,
Find what you love,
See where you stand,
Ponder what you know,
What's there yet to learn,
Set your milestones,
Ask for help in need,
And believe in yourself as much as I believe in you
Your life is your passion,
The little taste of love is yours to keep,
Forget about the cold,
And go rise above them all,

Tales of Fate

I've been to heaven, walked right by the gate,
I looked around, heard angels sing away,
I lost my step and fell back through the clouds,
But I live to tell the tale of my own doubts,
I've been to hell, you won't see me there again,
I nearly lost it with that poker game,
It's such a shame the friends I made were in vain,
As they burned alive in the devils wicked gaze,
The angels falling from the skies above,
No longer sing about the pure-white dove,
Our lady luck has chosen to abstain,
From the dealings we've been having with our fate,
The wheels keep turning, the horse shoes clack along,
As I make my way down this country road,
The setting sun bathes my face in warmth,
As I pray for my woeful, sinful foes.

Hey Saoirse, what's bringing you home?
How is Darren, does he treat you well?
When the sun goes down,
Does the homely fire keep you warm?
Hey Saoirse, why the mournful face?
What's your worry, where's your wistful gaze?
Is your match not right?
Calm your head and speak your mind,
Weep your sorrow heart,
With honest truth your love will re-ignite,
With a lonely mind,
The forlorn path will seem the only one,
Hey Saoirse, don't you now despair,
Life's no slumber, you must do your best,
Though it may seem lost,
Time and love will heal you most,
Shed each others woes,
Then you'll both have faced and struck your demons down,
Once you see as one,
The love and trust you share will rise like dawn,
With the rising sun,
The wild stallion rides his herd back home,
And the rolling wind,
Will chase you down the mountain side again.

Destination

Sit down here next to me,
I've so much to tell you still,
You've outgrown my sight of you,
I was blinded by your lasting youth,
Be careful in life my child,
The beauty wears down with time,
Stay true to your hearts embrace,
And smile in your rivals face,
With the clocks turned around,
How simple it now all sounds?
The key to not miss their lives,
Is be there through fall and rise,
It's easy to fall in love,
To focus on what could be,
Perfection is what you seek,
But cherish the blemish perceived,
You may want to turn around,
To see me far down the aisle,
But please only look ahead,
To bliss with your new best friend,
As proud of them as I am,
It's my time to step aside,
Their fates are now in their hands,
So let planets and stars align,
And thus the fairy tale ends,
Just feathers left in the nest,
The cold, dark break of dawn,
Brings forth a new day for all.
