TELL ME I AM NO LONGER YOURS

What is this that you are making me feel?
What emptiness is this that has become part of me?
Was all this part of the deal?
What hollowness is this that is inside me?
You slowly but steadily push me away.
You gently but surely darken a bright day.
Yet whatever is inside you, you do not say.
Leaving me wondering if I'm meant to stay.
If whatever you once felt is no longer there.
If it is your life you no longer want to share .
If it means that you will lay your heart bare.
Then lay it so that mine does not wear.
If it is my hand you no longer want to hold on to,
If it is the little things that you no longer want to do,
If the love has dried as the sun does to dew,
Then tell me so my feelings do not stew.
If my sorrows have become too heavy for your shoulder,
If your warmth toward me is becoming colder,
Let me know then, so that my feelings stop to smoulder.
Tell me, for the questions are making my heart older.
If it is my lips you no longer want against yours,
If it is my heartbeat you need not alongside yours,
If it is my eyes you want not looking into yours,
Then, pray, do tell me I am not yours.

WALKING AWAY

Sometimes, walking away is easier than fighting to stay...
Sometimes bidding goodbye is easier than waiting for a new day...
Sometimes flying away be better than waiting for a clear sky...
Sometimes, it be best to walk away, when you know not what cause you fight for...
You no longer know what lies in store...
When you know not whether you still love...
When your hearts fit not like a glove...
When you find that indeed you stand alone...
The heart's around you turned to stone...
When you have watched the bridges burn...
When your life must take a new turn...
When you bow after your act...
Certain you have played your part...
If your heart is torn apart...
If all you feel is broken and hurt...
If your heart tells you must go, then it be wise to forge a new way.
Without turning back, walk away.

THERE WAS A TIME

There was a time when the dawn found your name on my lips...
When everything about you was at my fingertips...
There was a time when you were the reason I wore a smile...
When I longed to have you stay just a little while...
There was a time when you painted my dreams...
When everything was sunshine and little streams...
There was a time you were my all...
We were so high I never thought we would fall...
There was a time my world went round...
So freely, I never felt bound...
There was a time your words spoke to me...
It was the best that could be...
There was a time when you danced with me...
Before the music faded and I was left with me...
There was a time when everything was happiness and bliss...
Before the storm blew and all was amiss...
There was a time when life awakened anew...
But now it is sad and blue...
With memories and wishes of that time...
There was a time...
