| It was twelve a.m. when I found my love
and I knew she was the one that I'd been dreaming of
A voice like a dove within a beautiful sight
Alas, only in my dreams as I was kissed by midnight...
A dream...always only in my dreams
Reality is real as my lonely heart screams
Nothing lasts forever, nothing stays the same
Broken hearts from broken dreams in a town without a name
and I knew this from the beginning, I knew this from the start
yet to this day I'd give away my fragile, delicate heart
A day, a month, a year...I would give my love so true
knowing in the end I will be fifty shades of blue
True love lies in the eyes of romance
but false love lies within a worldly trance
Still I dance to the chance, entertaining the thought
Pulling petals from the flowers; she loves me...loves me not
Is it worth it...worth the emotional toll
Sharing heart, sharing mind, sharing body and soul
Beyond sexual a sensual mind is oh, so rare
What good is laying together naked if your soul you cannot bare
Knowing each others thoughts, what we long for...dream of
When each glance, every whisper...even our scent screams of love
and it is love I seek, yet it is lust I always find
and sometimes late at night when I rewind my mind
I'm reminded time and again how many lovers I've had
but if I counted those who truly loved me, that lowly number seems so sad
because the fire is desirous, the flames beckon as they call
and when I'd rise to the occasion I would watch myself fall
I don't want another lover to feed my worldly desire
I want more than real...ethereal...rising ever higher
Walking hand-in-hand though we're miles apart
Love-letters written from the tears of the heart
The tears of joy brought on by love becoming the ink
but this chain of love is only as strong as its weakest link
That link is the world, with all its tempting treasures
Naughty by nature with its sinful little pleasures
and as I see what I've done, and I see what I've become
I want to march to the beat of a different drum
I need to trust someone will love me not in part, but in whole
because purely physical love is destroying my soul
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
I want the us in trust, but not the us in lust
Two becoming one as primal lovers unite
is sometimes best left to the dreams of the night...

| Very close to my old heart this piece is...more than many of us would care to admit, tell it like it was...tell it like it is...tell us what to avoid...are we listening? Much love to you Brother. |

| You know how to make an age old dilemma new with the way you dance around it and on top of it with your beautiful poetry.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
I want the us in trust, but not the us in lust
Two becoming one as primal lovers unite
is sometimes best left to the dreams of the night... |
