To Give All.

Loving so much
Till you're no longer invincible
Till your insides are wrung out
And hung out to dry
Dripping with whatever's left to give

Still, it's the only way to live
So let us love again and again
As if for every time it were new
As new as the moment two hearts hatch
And attach
Together

Together

Let us not be two halves that make a whole
But two whole's that halve the gap in our ego's soul
Telling us that we are not complete
Without the other
But without the other
We cannot learn to care
To share
To give of ourselves
Until there's nothing left to give
It's the only way to live

For at the end of the road
The only crimes we should be guilty of
Should be for loving so much
That we were no longer invincible
Empty and wrung out
And hung out to dry
As reminders of what it is to live
Until you've nothing left to give.

Full.

And so I say to you
Don't give up
Don't spill your cup
Lazily, carelessly
Before you realise
The value of it's contents

And so I say to you
Your time is not yet up
If the minutes
Are still ticking over
You must then, fill them up
Fill your precious cup

And don't give up
But instead, give
Give until you've nothing left
And in emptying yourself
You'll find nothing was spilled

Only fulfilled.

Window of Opportunity.

Today I cried
I cried by the window
For the daylight
And it's lingering glow

Sad was I, no
These tears I shed
Were not of dismay
Nor for yesterdays

But for today
And for the joy
That I am here to see it
To be it
To make the most of this window
An opportunity, called life.

Falling Over.

Life spins me around
And I can dance
Dance to my own tune
But lately
I'll trip
And I'll fall
Over thoughts of you
I'm falling over
And there's nothing I can do
It's the most wonderful accident
To have crashed into you.

Grounded.

I feel the ground under my feet
And follow this bass up to my heart's beat
As long as I'm feeling this
I'm being true
And therefore, I'm seeing you
And an honest view
Of the world that makes this heart beat
Of the world that makes the ground
Underneath these two feet.

And as I stand, admiring the view
I always find here, the answer I seek
- That we were vessels made to carry love
To keep each other warm
By radiating it's firey heat.

Last Lights.

And through these blinds
It's now I see
The fading light
- A reminder of the time
We keep
That won't wait for you or me...

Time is as precious
As the last light
That paints the evening wall
Before the night

Falls.

So, before we all
Fall asleep
Remember, the time you keep
Is beautiful, yet fleeting
And we are but fading lights
Whose purpose is to shine
As much as we can
Before we meet our life's nights.

Unspoken Magic.

Magic magic, in my heart
Where does it end?
Where does it start?
It dances in the quiet places
And softly moonlit spaces
Of the galaxy that lies asleep
Waking only, for the truth
Made and spoken
By the magic magic, in my heart.

Hope is Helium.

This system will not make me
This system will not break me
Cut me out
Or deflate me

I've enough helium in my heart
To keep this hope afloat
Enough to build this boat
And sail away from the unsure

There's no time for the unsure
No time
I'm sure

I know what must be done
And the rest is unknown
So let expectations come undone
And chase
Chase the balloon that rises
Above all this mess on the ground
On the ground
Is not where dreams are found

So I'll grab the string
Hold on tight
I've enough helium in my heart
To keep this hope afloat
Enough to build this boat
And sail away from the unsure

There's no time for the unsure
No time
I'm sure.

I Belong.

Tell me I belong
Tell me I belong
What to?
What to?
Is it in the song?
Is it in the dance?

No.

It's inside the chance
That makes no sense
When everything else has fallen.

Here; I don't need to be told
I already know I belong
To no one
To nothing.

I am nothing
- Which is everything
To which I belong.

Timeless.

There's always a way
Let everything else fall away
To reveal the essential
And what's essential is here to stay
Timeless
Inside the now.
