dazed

when it happens
you're never ready
IT jumps out of nowhere
FAST, twisted and steady

you are dazed
confusion continues
IT remains unfazed

you hold on with blind faith
there IS a reason and IT will work out
trusting that karma will rightly prevail
but deep inside your heart, you have doubt

you are dazed
uncertainty swells
IT remains crazed

all at once, IT becomes surreal
dreamlike time, not enough tears to cry
now only the TRUTH can fetch the breeze
for your injured wings to again fly high

you are dazed
there IS hope
YOU are amazed

bubblegum days

Take me back

to my bubblegum days

Let me play in the yard again
where I smacked and twirled

Let me pretend again
that I'm Queen of the world

Take me back
to those bubblegum days

waiting

I feel my heart racing
As he comes through the door.
The sight of his tousled hair
Makes me want him even more.

There are not enough kisses
In the world, or inside of me
To express the love I feel
Whenever I see my sweet baby.

Oh god, I love to tease him
And certainly, he likes it too.
He stares with delight as I undress
Always entertained with what I do.

Slowly, surely the clothes come off
One. Two. Three. Four.
And the show goes on, until
Each piece is on the floor.

Standing naked before him
He sees beyond my skin
Wanting to touch and pleasure
But all he can do is grin.

Nearly lost in adoring moments
Till we reach out and roam.
Everything is right again
Now that my baby is home.

Home. Home. Home.
Finally my baby is home.

on the horizon

Seems I'll never learn to recognize
The tempest out on the horizon
Never thinking for a moment of
the storm's impact -- unpredictable and sudden.

Time after Time
I'll head for the storm

Each time the thunder crashes
and my soul jumps with penance.
Each time the lightening scares me
with sudden flashes of passionate brilliance.

Time after Time
I'll head for the storm

Each time it gets so alarmingly dark
Just like falling in a deep, deep hole.
Each time is a refreshing reminder
As the rain pours on me to console.

Time after Time
I'll head for the storm

Each time is different
with lessons that entwine.
Each time is the same
Putting my all on the line.

Time after Time
I'll head for the storm

why ask why?

Why did you say you loved me
when you knew you loved her more?
Why did we make sweet passionate love?
Is that all you needed me for?

Why do I listen to those melancholy songs
when all they do is remind me of our story?
It hurts more than I imagined
What can ever set my heart free?

You are my sweetest downfall
Why am I still under your spell?
There's nothing more in this world
for me but a living, loveless hell.

Why did we come together
when it was never meant to last?
Why did you swear we would be one someday?
Will I ever forget the pain of our past?

Why am I still missing you after all these years?
It is the curse that follows me throughout all my days.
I long to be in your arms once again
despite it all, I will love you, forever and always.
