Love Songs

Love can be whatever you want it to be.

It can be a mystery, or a sweet storybook fantasy.

Love is said to be patient and kind, but it can also feel sticky and bitter at times.

We want so badly to be in love, yet sometimes that is not as a simple as the words above.

Love can be whatever you want it to be.

Do you want it to be like a sweet lullaby?

It really is such a mystery.

Love is challenging, love is deep.

Love can be whatever you want it to be.

We always hope it will be easy.

You trust and give and lose so much sleep,

Yet, so easily, it can be lost like a ship at sea.

Though, it is okay, for there will always will be more love songs to play,

And once again, you can fall asleep while counting all of those fence jumping sheep, just hoping, one day, you can find your love again.

Love can be whatever you want it be…

So, what will it be?

Waiting for You

I waited for you, then I decided to search for you.

For years I looked.

For years I tried.

I finally found you, but it wasn’t the right time.

You wanted to come to me, but you just weren’t quite ready.

Its okay.

I will wait for you.

I can keep waiting, until the time is right, until you are ready.

Until then, I will be watching the sunrise and set, walking along the beaches, feeling the breeze, wishing you were here with me.

Until we meet again, I will hold you dearly, in my memory.

Beauty of the Light

Can we just pretend like darkness doesn’t exist?

That only light and beauty are what we are encompassed with?

Darkness seems to take over so much of the light.

When darkness comes, sometimes its hard to remember the light.

The beauty of the light is so immensely overwhelming.

The beauty of the light can sometimes be hypnotizing.

Surely we could not exist without the balance of the darkness and the light, but when we see the glow of that beautiful light, it really can make one wonder, what it would be like, a world full of light.

Fairy Guides

Let me take you on a trail,

I will take you to meet your Fairy Guides.

Bring your chocolate and your sweets,

Bring some shiny and sparkly things.

They love their ale, but leave that home for now, lets just ease into this first time meeting.

We will sing songs and speak in poem.

Remember to thank them while giving them their treats.

Don’t ask them for any favors, just yet,

It is a delicate thing, to meet your Fairy Guides, you can’t give them all the things and then get right to your first request.

First you must win their favor.

Show them love, and gratitude.

Let them know you think they are clever.

Trust me, you’ll want to do this if you want to win them over.

The Fae are a special type of being.

They will create a mess if you don’t have good intentions.

Chocolates, honey, sweet and shiny things, that is the way to these magical beings.

Gratitude, songs, love and patience,

These are the ways to the hearts of your Fairy Guides.

Leave the treats at the base of a tree.

Then bring more the next day, trusting that they will see.

A little bit of kindness and a whole lot of love,

That is the way to your fairy guides.

Once your in, keep them happy and safe, by being kind to all the living things.

Fairies know, they see and hear, all of who you are and what you do.

Keep them happy and they will bring you all the love and good fortune of your hearts deepest desires.

The Road to Somewhere

As much as I dream of leaving, I also dream of staying.

Isn’t it so confusing? That push-pull feeling?

Should I stay or should I go…

Every time I think of leaving, I remember how much I feel at home.

Then every time I think of staying, I think about how much I want to go explore.

Show me the world from a window.

Let me see through that looking glass.

Take me for a spin around the globe and then let me come back home and have a weekend in.

Let’s take a chance on a lotto ticket.

Let’s spin a wheel or two.

Maybe we can buy a plane ticket and not know where to.

I have a wild side that needs to go see all the places.

I also have a homebody side that likes to order in and listen to the silence as it dances through the air.

I’m not looking for lovers or one night stands.

Just looking for best friends, adventures, new back roads and cities.

I’m only looking for new scenery.

A new direction.

A new way home.

A new place to get lost in the woods.

A new beach to see the sun rise then fall.

Let’s take a chance and make all right turns.

Then we can laugh while taking all left turns, calling them wrong turns, while we drive back home.

Let’s just go.

Maybe one day,

Maybe sometime,

Maybe somewhere we will go.

Morning Glow

Your reflections shine for miles, upon the open waters.

You wake me with those soft brushes of light, that shine across the sky, taking away the last darkness of night.

Never do I close my curtains, for now I know of your morning glow.

How could I have ever loved a morning before knowing of your beauty, and how it shines away the darkness of the night.

All my nightmares runaway when you start to glow.

That morning shine, through the window pane, is like nothing I have ever seen before.

Oh how your beauty surpasses beyond expectations, it is such an experience, and no two mornings are ever the same.

The Bridge of Wonder

This bridge, it is a magic bridge, it will lead you to places you’ve never been to before.

It will take you to a world full of wonder, with so many new places to explore.

You will see magic like you thought was only in fairy tales.

Your wildest dreams will come to life and take you away, like nothing you’ve ever imagined could be true.

Walk over this bridge and don’t look back.

One step forward and no steps back.

Count to three and close your eyes.

Here we go, tell all your fears goodbye.

One step, two steps, here we go, no looking back, onward we go.

-M.

Lets Fly Away

Fly away with me.

We can see new sights.

Hear new sounds.

There will be new adventures to be had.

On our way we will soar over the sea.

The waves will rumble below our wings, but we will keep flying, safely above the sea.

We will fly through the clouds, feeling their softness as we glide through.

Planes will pass us by, they will be loud, but it will be okay.

The passengers will wave to us, saying, “Hi”, as we fly by their windows.

Fly away with me.

We will see new lands.

We will experience new things.

There is so much more to beyond the open sea.

Come fly away with me, it will be an adventure, just follow me, you’ll see.

Lets fly away.

-M.

Lost Love on the Beach

I went to find you, but you had already gone…

The waves tried to show me which way, but I got lost trying to find your footprints in the sand.

Darkness was coming, so I needed to hurry.

There was so much left to tell you…

So much left to show you…

Maybe one day, another life, another time…

Maybe one day, another chance, another meeting…

Until then, may the waves remember our laughs.

May the winds remember ours scents.

May the sands continue to hold the footprints of when we danced and sat, watching the waves and feeling the love of the sea, together.

– Your Love

Trail of Light

You left a trail of your light.

It lead to the waters edge.

To greet you, to say goodbye, for you would be taking your break, falling away, leaving room for the night sky.

Every time you fall away, you leave a gift of colors.

You leave so much beauty behind you, as you lower away to your resting place.

This could be to teach the onlookers that leaving a place with beauty and grace makes for the best exit of all.

Thank you for the silent lessons and for the beauty you leave with each evening sunset sky, that takes your place.
