Among the Stars

Through blood and fire I pass
Mile after broken mile
The only thing that keeps me going
Is the memory of your smile
You are my Sun and my Moon
My bright and shining Star
Everything I've ever wanted
Is everything you are
Now that you are gone
The pain nearly cripples my soul
Now I am broken
Where once we were whole
In life you were mine
In death I am yours
And now we shall dance
Eternally among the stars

Queen

A hope that can never be fulfilled
A dream that can never come true
Absolute perfection made flesh
And embodied in you
A treasure long sought
A prize worth any price
Eyes of fire
And a heart made of ice
A woman a goddess
For whose love I long
A queen an angel
Whose voice is sweeter than any song
When I look at you
This is what I see
And this is what I want
Though I know it can never be

In Love with a Stripper

You danced for me once
To a song I do not know
You danced for me once
And time ceased to flow

You danced for me once
My eyes followed every move
You danced for me once
My soul was consumed in your groove

You danced for me once
Though music you did not need
You danced for me once
And I felt my heart be freed

Long Distance Love

From your ears to your soul
To bring you pleasure
Is my one and only goal
Let my words touch you
While my hands are far away
Our bodies are distant
But our minds close in a sensual way
Let imagination taste the pleasure
That the flesh is denied
My passion runs away with me
Won't you come for the ride?

Goddess

You are a Goddess, perfect in every way. And I am your humble worshipper, kneeling at your altar, praying to get just a glimpse of your beauty, even though I though I know it will not satisfy me. I am drawn to you like a moth to a flame. When you enter a room, everything holds its breath in silent homage to the glory that is you. Your voice is like a symphony that warms my blood and tickles my ears. I long for you as a starving man longs for food, as a thirsty man longs for water, as a scholar longs for knowledge, as the oppressed long for justice, as the dying long for peace, as the tortured long for release. I want nothing more than to reach out and touch you, to stroke your lovely cheek, to caress your smooth skin. I cannot bear to look into your eyes, for I know that once I do I will be trapped, an unmoving statue, forever enraptured by the beauty I know is there to be found. Your radiance puts the sun to shame and even the stars know to dread your name, for their supremacy in the field of beauty has at last come to an end. I know that you will never be mine: no man deserves such bliss. So I ask only that I get the opportunity to know the woman behind the beauty, the mortal behind the Goddess.

I Dreamed Me A Dream

I dreamed me a dream
As sweet as can be
I dreamed I was in love with you
And you were in love with me
I dreamed of fire and of passion
And of a fiery release
I dreamed of you in my arms
And for once I knew peace
I dreamed me a dream
But now I must wake
For reality has come
And made my heart break
I dreamed me a dream
But it wasn't real
The only truth in it
The pain I now feel.

Without You

I speak but you refuse to listen
Saying that my words can't be true
Look in my eyes and tell me
Could I ever really lie to you
I am yours
Purer than the body
Deeper than the soul
Stronger than heart
Without you in my life
The whole of me would fall apart
You say this doesn't matter
That it's just empty words I speak
I'm a man of my word and if you leave
There's a promise I must keep
You can move on with your life
I can't with mine
How can I go on
When my Sun no longer shines
Without you in my life
It is in darkness that I dwell
We came so close to Heaven
But now I'm consigned to Hell
You took the joy from my life
I took life itself
I had no other choice
Without you I had nothing left

Call to Arms

My hands tremble and shake
Aching to hold a blade again
Voices taunt and whisper
That to ease my suffering
I must cause another's pain

But I've walk that way before
A path I'd rather not tread
For is it not the bringer of death
Who is left with a soul that's dead

To slay is to be slain
Life by the sword means death by the same
But it is only through the clash of arms
That I ever truly feel sane

Battle calls out to me
A song both tempting and sweet
The challenge is what I craze
I care nothing for victory or defeat

But my life is not my own to risk
On me others must rely
And if I were to no longer breathe
Then they would surely die

So I turn a deaf ear to the voices
That summon me to the field
I am a Warrior by my profession
But a Father by my will

Dance with Me

Dance with me my love
On this most special of nights
Dance with me my love
Until the morning light
Dance with me my love
For we have much to celebrate
Dance with me my love
My lioness my soulmate

Dance with me my love
Let the music be our guide
Dance with me my love
Becaue I need you by my side
Dance with me my love
As we become one with the beat
Dance with me my love
And I swear I'll sweep you off your feet

Babygirl

The sun is long set
And these meager torches fail to hold back the dark
Her touch brings solace to body
But does nothing for my wounded heart
For it is only you that I love, have loved, will love
No matter how many years my life may span
For you were born to be my lady
And I was born to be your man
But fate is cruel and tricksome
And death snatched you from my embrace
And now my world is diminished
For it lacks your stunning grace
You had the voice of an angel
With a body to make men sin
Our life together was ended
Before it could even begin
You were my Queen of Love and Beauty
Although we'd never met
Eight years now you've been gone
And still I can't forget

Hers

Her touch
Sends electric shivers down my spine
Her taste
Sweeter than the finest wine
Her voice provides the rhythm for my heart
Her life
I'd give my all to be a part
Her walk
More graceful than the sea
Her man
The only thing I ever wanted to be

Rite of Passage

The bare blade flashes
Blood spills out on the sand
Life has ended because a boy
Had to prove he was a man
Pride outmatched strength
And death outlasts us all
He tried so hard to stand
In the end only to fall
On the end of my sword
He came face to face with death
And now ashes and tears
Are all that is left
Of a future bright with promise
If only it'd been allowed to grow
And when his mother asks me why
My only answer is I do not know

Sweet Surrender

Your voice calls out to me
Across the valleys and the fields
And with every word spoken
I feel the weakening of my will

My legs no longer support me
I sink down to my knees
And with every word spoken
I feel my heart being squeezed

You ask for my heart
I give it over without a qualm
I rip it from my chest
And place it in your palm

You ask for my love
A thing for no one but you
You ask for obedience
I do whatever you tell me to

You ask for my protection
I stay awake to guard your sleep
You ask for my life
I keel over at your feet

Wasn't It?

It was me that stood beside you
In the sun and in the rain
It was my arms that held you
Gave you pleasure and shielded you from pain

It was me that you ran to
When the cares of the world became too much
And it is my soul that trembles
At even the memory of your touch

It is my eyes that see
What you'd rather hide
It is me who wants to spend
Forever at your side

Let Me

Broken hearted princess
Wipe away your tears
Let me wrap my arms about you
And keep you from what you fear
Let me be your shield
To keep you safe from harm
Let me be your shelter
In the midst of the storm
Let me be your future
I care not for your past
Let me have today
Even if this cannot last
