Travelers and Places


Travelers and places.
Moments with traces
fleeting and distant
with much welcome faces.

Heartache and Lovers.
Starry-eyed flutters.
Two bleeding hearts sleep under the covers.

Whispering sweet thoughts
of moments they'd past lost.
Under the sheets two lovers hearts they had crossed.

When life brings new meaning
and summer turns to spring,
you felt love that one day he'd left you with nothing.

Shattered moments upon us.
Break forces beyond us.
A bright new future born from endless decisions.
A future that's yours, a future you've been given.

Bright morning glories. Never ending stories,
painting pictures of what came before.
The lies we tell or truths we hide,
will never bear truth to witness
to the stories we adore
to the guise we provide.

Hold fast to the goal.
for every breathe of your soul
is a gift born from Love,
a gift beyond your control.
Love you didn't expect, love you didn't deserve,
love that was given without a damn thing you've served. 

Do with it what you will,
for strength or for ill.
Worthiness is a veil
The sun shines for you still.

When life has no meaning,
seek meaning in others.
Together you'll find it, together you'll discover.

None of it matters,
no one cares.
Except you and that person and the moments you've shared.

The time is fleeing,
the moment is now
to stand bare before a bare naked crowd.

When the veil drops and everything's exposed
the traveller's tale is all but opposed.
Beyond death shall we meet again,
faces in star light, faces in twilight, faces you've yet met, together, at the end.
