The ice bites cold The heart beats warm The eyes see hope The hands grasp for time The feet seek refuge The legs seek rest The night falls quickly The snow settles softly The words drift past me The moments never last You fade into the dark The ice bites cold

I see you there I cant stop looking My eyes feel your form   notice your grace   see your strength   size up your spirit You leave me reeling Remnants of you never leaving Me, a blind man staring If you look I dont know      what I'll do You aren't here But I see you      I hear you      I sense you My mind swims with you Intoxicating me Marking my weakness Crumbling my strength I see you, I feel you Every moment I spend with you Lingers after you've gone

Tame the waves Still the waters Walk Freely Tides over   subside let peace give birth to a sea fully fit   for lying on Nature holds no mind for fools birds who forfeit flying to trust   smooth waters Give me peace And a peaceful sea or see me peaceful in whatever sea may be but let me float And when it is done I may find a sun to warm me As I bask in treachery

Carried by a wave     gentle Sleek and sly, the rain falls The white waters gather,     heap and fall Sweet at first but with a backlash which puts me     under Oh, if I could only sleep Drifting off not pounded by     the waves I flow freely, weak, wounded The wave takes me, where? Not even it knows The water sees no pain It knows no remorse Only sweeping, always sweeping Leaving wakes Leaving wreckage Leaving bodies Leaving me

I reach out to capture Beautiful butterfly I cant hold down I never wanted to hold you down The wind rushes by Carry my lone dream away I sit when I should crawl At least to move through these weeds to a sweeter place someday The cold damp ground threatens    to pull me down My weak heart frozen by    the cold The wind again, but maybe it will become still Fighting for a glimpse of a sky above the tall grass Chilled to my core I reach out to capture That which I can't hold down I yearn for your warm form

A gust of wind could make         me fall I've done it so many times The ground has become my home Tilting, spitting me into the river As I float And close my eyes Tossed and turned It's like I couldn't care until the passage is too small I stop I worked so hard They never gave me a chance And as I fell and got back up Lets go Now to drown And now, I need to move, The river has dropped me The water is sick of me too And I ask myself Why cant I have what I want

Just be mine I didn't know that something so much in my head could make my heart hurt like it does and this is the point that                  the tears drop from my eyes I cried again tonight. Lets go back to the time I didn't know that something so beautiful existed And then I was so happy Like I was tonight But then It just came all back And I awoke cold And now I walk and lie With my heart on fire
