Optimism Is A Future Photo

I switch my mind off
To all that is tough
To all that is wrong
I won't be gone for too long

Lost in memories of times past
What's left of me will outlast
This stormy ship I sail upon
Gail force emotions begone
Wash me up on a deserted beach
Out of sight and too far out of reach

I'll stitch my heart up again
To all that I'm pained
To all that I'm blamed
I won't be tamed in shame

Further away yesterday than tomorrow
Today I drown in salty years of sorrow
Borrow me your heart for a while please
Jump start mine I have fallen to my knees

Sing me a new tune
Of a future in bloom
Where me and you belong
Singing our own love song

Allow me to redesign and refine my mind
Happiness is now mine to find
Old negatives are just too unkind
Optimism is a future photo that's yours and mine

Snap me up and take a shot
Take a chance now I've untied my knots
Walk the path that time forgot
Me and you together against the lot

Looking Beyond

Looking beyond the pain. Over the rocky hills in the rain. I see a glimmer of hope. Lassoing it with my rope. Looking beyond the fear. Through cloudy seas of tears. I see a sparkle of trust.

Hurry Up!!

I don't care what the weather man says. It's been constantly raining but I see the suns rays. My dark clouds are clearing making vision clear. I'm believing what I always wanted to hear.

Rain

Look out the window the sky covered in grey. The rain cloud covers the sun A miserable face on everyone.

Just For Now...

Wipe the tears from your eyes, You're far too beautiful to cry From this darkness, you can't run But I promise soon, you'll see the sun I can't say when, I'm not sure how You have to trust me Just...

Ready

I'm ready to sleep the whole night. I'm ready to give up against the fight. I'm ready to give up control for a while. I'm ready to pick up the phone and dial. I'm ready to forgot the pain and strife.

October Rain

Don't let go. Hold on to your heart. Cherish those moments. We have from the start. Don't let go. There is still time. Time to swim to the surface. You'll always be mine. Don't let go.

Your Day.

There's going to come a day. When you don't feel so alone. When you find your place. When you find you peace of happiness. There's going to come a day, When you can smile.

Blue Eyes..where Dreams Lies.

Growing old I keep moving on. Only thing left of me is to keep growing strong. Chewed up and spit out, My head filled with self-doubt.
