My Last Letter to You

oh, listen to me,
please listen to me
where were you when
when I needed you then
you weren't in my sight
so my mind had to fight
I was dying and drowning
and you were only frowning
and all those years
I was nothing but tears
I repeatedly sought
for love that wasn't brought.
oh, listen to me,
listen to me
where were you when
when I needed you then
sadly I speak and
in the end
oh my mind died again
oh my mind died again

Memories

Try to recollect
only the best things
Only select
what good memory brings.
Silly mistakes
That tickle your nose
Ache's what it takes
for a person to grow.
Immature thinking
Erase it forever
Or he'll only sink
and never be clever.
Remember only when
You smelled sweet scent
On your face again
A smile will be sent.

-Prayers for You-

Every day and night
I earnestly pray for you
To have the strength to fight
This I wish you knew
My hands are firmly united
Touching palm to palm
Burning my heart's ignited
but becomes the morning calm.

Every blink your eyes make
Whispers you'll hear
Hopeful whispers that awake
make your eyes clear

My answers are yet to come
But I do believe in thee
Numb your pain, wait some
and you'll feel what I see
Every day and night
I earnestly pray for you
To have the strength to fight
This I wish you knew.

I WROTE THIS ON 2/24/2007. I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD BE CONTINUING THIS TODAY, WHICH IS 3/26/2013.
