Just Like You :


Am I that little chide lost in tears and fears
that knew from the womb he was unwanted
just like you?
The hurt child that ached for a loving hand
the warmth of glad relief's to feel, touch
,,,,just like you
I am that man your Mother wanted
the fathers love you never had, but needed
,sent to you
From the prayers you thought unanswered
even now you do not realize or see
,,,it's just,, like you
To have the love you vision less, and abandoned
and you never knew until the end
it's just like you

You will discover,,,it is you,,that lost it all
I have found, I belong to the world
thanks to you
I am the hard and the sensitive kind
a loving, caring but most of all responsible man
just like Mom wanted, but never had
The baby black and blue
screaming for the air that is you
The lost, hungry child that screams
remembering, wanting but only in dreams
This mature man, broken in two
eyes stained with too many tears
changing hue, just like you
A heart of glass broken, shattered
now do you understand
I,,,was just,,,for you

The child inside beaten black and blue
,,,,just like you
You must pay the price for your lack of vision
it is your fate with him
,,,,,,,,Oblivion
God sent me here to mend
both your soul and mine
I have known the same pain
all my life
Just Like You

Now I am alone in a crowded room
trying to find a lost dream
Lonely, afraid, confused
feeling my brave heart wounded
still in love, and wanting
feeling the bruises returning
a lonely, broken virgin
heading for the coast
to make the most
of what she lost
it is you
This love of, flowing, haunting Mind
like the rivers so unafraid
running endlessly
towards the sea
,,,black and blue
always remembering, lovingly
to the depths of love
Just For You

As we would the Roses

Spark of life,
does it seem
as beautiful to you
as it does to me,
to court you,
as delicately,
as one would a flower.
Patiently,
hour after hour,
Tenderly,
as we would
wait for,,,
The Roses...
