Sunshine In My Heart

When I look into your eyes
I'm taken to a castle in the sky
Amongst the white and fluffy clouds
I want to be held by you.
You rock me in a cradle
Full of encouragement and hope
Helping me to believe -
You're the person I didn't think existed.
My breath has been stolen by you
It's as though my tongue has been stung
And now I am speechless
It's all because of you.
There's sunshine in my heart
You penetrate me with your creativity
You've abducted my unprotected soul
You've inspired my curious mind.
When I look into your eyes
There's a million stories to be told
I'm glad I'm there to hear them -
Like a dream, everything fades away when I'm with you.
Floating higher than I've been before
Not knowing how long it will last, but hoping it's forever
There's me and there's you -
There's us slowly merging together.

Worry Stops Faith Begins

It all started a long time ago when she hurt you
You broke down in tears on your knees and cried
At the time you thought it was all going perfectly
Then you found out she went and lied.

You decided over time it was OK to move on
You found someone who took your breath away
Secretly you wished you could keep her forever
She'd never leave you - or so she would say.

One day you came home and her bags were packed
She said she couldn't live a lie anymore
"Sorry that I've gone and hurt you" she said
As she carelessly walked out that door.

You sat there on the floor for hours
Looking at photos from times gone past
What had you done to push her away?
She broke your faith in love that could last.

It wasn't the first time a woman had hurt you
Questions of why would float though your mind
You always thought you treated your lover like a princess
Always loving, always caring, always kind.

For ages you went off and did your own thing
Believing someone decent would never come along
Suddenly when you least expected it
You heard a girl singing a beautiful song.

"I'm not like them" she assured you
"But over time you will see"
"When worry ends then faith begins"
"So have a little faith in me".

This girl that's come into your life is there to teach you
Let her show you that some things are worth the risk
She wants you to give her a chance over time
To prove that good things do exist.

She wants to take your hand and show you the way
Let her restore your faith in women again
She only wants you to have the happiness you deserve
She wants to take off your restrictive chain.

Leave My Dreams

I wake up in a pool of sweat. I've just dreamt about you again. The fact that my dreams aren't a reality is going through my head. They say dreams can come true but when it comes to you, my dreams are a vivid memory, a hope of something using faith. This can never be real. My dreams seem to consume me and once I awake, I can't get back to sleep again. You've been stuck in my mind and you won't escape. You are like a ghost haunting me. Sleepless nights and endless thoughts are filling up my bedroom. I look for an escape door but there isn't one. I don't run anymore, I simply take it as it comes. Laying here in a pool of sweat, trying to get back to sleep. Leave my dreams if you please, you aren't welcome here anymore. There's no way I want you here. Say goodbye so I can dream sweet about meadows and dragonflies and bubbles and fairies. My dreams belong to me and I want my dreams back. Release what is truly mine so I can rest sweet.

Stranger...

I'm captivated by a stranger
Excited to find out more
Challenged by my instincts
Opening a new door.

I'm curious about a stranger
Hesitant on what to show
Explaining what's inside my heart
You seem to already know.

I'm inspired by a stranger
Words flow naturally onto the page
Revealing thoughts and secrets
Come inside my cage.

I'm delighted by a stranger
A smile won't leave my face
Happy our paths have crossed
You've bought me to this place.

I'm intrigued by a stranger
Hope to know you well
You'll make a difference in my life some how
Before we've met I can already tell.
