So that I can love you still With my eyes soaked I must say goodbye With my tears flowing I'll say goodbye...now We could fight all day and discuss all night All the things we're doing wrong But if we fight and fuss til the love is gone The love all goes away The love all goes away And I want to save some love So that I can love you still I could never come to saying Anything wrong about you

conflicted

Unrevised draft If I were a flower, would I be conflicted? The sun wouUnrevised draftld rise after the bone breaking cold of the night. At first with its gentle warmth...making love to my petal skin. Dew would dry, replaced by the dry smoothness of my skin. Until, suddenly, the sun becomes the overwhelming lover that she is and I remember the coolness of the night and the contrast of her weak luminance. And I begin to long for her presence and and eventually her touch. The moon...gentle. she's is nothing like the sun and stands quietly while I sleep. I turn my face from her gleaming eyes and she responds by turning cold. Colder so with the turning of the clock until I loose all the warmth of my blood to this overpowering queen. She takes me and freezes me in time but if I realize her fretfulness I will loose this night forever. No longer in love with her I will long for the gentle warmth of the sun.

Baby Mia

There is no fight left in your frail body The light is far gone from your eyes There is no warmth All hope is lost So soon...you're gone I see the tears run down Your mother's face See the clenched fist Your father makes And, if disappearing could solve This mess Your memory would no longer exist So they cry and cradle One another The way they would've done If you... They sigh and sigh Their world has been shattered But nothing... nothing could bring them back you.
