Letting Go

Could there possibly be a right way?

Saying goodbye to someone you loved once yesterday

Who brought shine when the skies were grey

Who would lay yellow brick so you find your way

But really, how could you expect me to stay

How were we suppose to sail when you kept me at bay

Yet, I stay afloat

One morning i awoke

Had to clear my throat

Looked over to the table, found a note that you wrote

And i quote...

"I'm writing this to tell you that you were always there

No doubt about it, you showed me that you care

Everytime i was lost, your love shot a flare

Thought you were like the rest, it's obvious your rare

But then came along, that feeling of despair

Im sure you were aware

You? no one compares

I'll never forget, the times that we share

And forever i will keep you in my prayer

I swear

Love, Claire"

To Be Continued...

The Woman Of My Dreams

Maybe it was the way she held a melody

To have a voice like that was a felony

At least, thats what my friends been telling me

She was someone i knew nothing about

But i could tell, she was what i didn't want to live without

With her, felt like i had no fears

Tried to block her out at times...

But she always made her way to my ears

It's a fact, any one would fall for her

And now, nothing could ever make me deter

Why would i, this is just what i prefer

i know your saying, "how'd he let this occur"

But, I swear on every thing above

She's just the type of girl that everybody grows to love

Keeps everybody moving, especially in the club

Hard not to get addicted.. what a wonderful drug

Don't you dare be afraid to abuse it

She had the most unique name...

Her name was MUSIC

Mistake

Ever felt like you were making a mistake?

Tried to slow things down, but your foot slipped off the brake

Maybe i forgot everything that was at stake

Maybe i been too real to where i lost sight of those fake

And i've given so much that i don't know when to take

It'll never happen again at least for my sake

But i was never the type

To complain about life

Used to stay up until daylight

On those lonely contemplative nights

Sitting and wondering if second chances were real

Regretting all the times i kept my lips sealed

But now i block it all out with impenetrable shields

Now im rounding third and all eyes are on the field

Just trying to make it home to find the person inside

They say keep your eyes open well mines are pretty wide

Foot almost to the plate as i make my final stride

"Out" i wish you could come along for the ride
