"On The Other Side of The" Night By AB~

In the morning when I wake, I think of you,
In the night and in the evening to,

When it's dusk, and the sun , is going down,
It's only hours 'till for you it's coming 'round,

And when the morning light, is almost here,
Your day is almost over, evening near,

We live in different places, different times,
Our lives have different rythms, different rhyms,

But like me, you have the same amazing sun,
It is yours, when my days fully done,

And we share the same yellow moon,
When it gone here, it will be there very soon,

All the stars that shined for me, so clear and bright,
They will soon be yours, to shine thier dassling light,

It doesn't matter that my night, is your day,
We find the time to be togeather anyway,

And togeather we can dream of the night,
We'll hold hands until the sun comes into sight,

Lying , side bye side,we'll watch our first sunrise,
That we've always seen before , with different eyes.

I Have Wings in My Heart by AB

Smoke rising,
In ashes lie your broken promises,
Free from their burden I sit,
Warmed by their heat,

Today is just a day
.A day for rejoicing,
But not for us,for all.
For life, for living.

Gone are the days I waited,
Waited for you to change,
Wondering if you could,
Wishing you wanted us,

Lost are the feelings of hope,
Hope that we could be a family,
Hope that you could be at peace ,
As you, for us.

Shed your doubts and fears,
They have no place on my door step,
Bold and bright are the days ahead,
Happy and fulfilled my heart beats strong

I have not crumbled at your departure,but rejoiced.
Only the song from my heart rings louder,
Shadows of the past, slip quietly from my mind.
I morn not for their comforts.

Peace, finds me in sleep,
Joy, my new friend,
I know love, and it teaches me well,
Let go , let me fly,

like a fiery bird,
Let me rise from the ashes,
Let me live a new day,
I have wings in my heart

Dreaming of You by AB

Looking at your picture,
Dreaming that your near,
Wondering what your doing,
Missing you, my dear,

Wishing you could call me,
Sitting by the phone,
Wanting you, here,
But I am all alone,

Dreaming of your black eyes,
And your, cute nose,
My heart is overflowing,
Yet, my love still grows,

Thinking of the wondrous moment,
I shall see you face,
When you hold me, in your arms
Feeling your embrace,

Are you also dreaming,
Do you miss me too,
Can you feel the love I'm sending,
In my thoughts to you,

If you do than kiss me,
Send it by moon beams,
I will find it when I sleep,
And kiss you in my dreams

Shall We Dance by AB~ (song)

Shall we dance, Shall we dance,
On the edge of insanity,
Shall we dance, shall we dance,shall we dance,
I have no pride left,
Shall we dance , shall we dance,
I can feel my world crumble,
Shall we dance,

With my dreams on my lips,
I have cried shall we dance,
As my whole world falls,
shall we dance,
I have no pride left,
Shall we dance,Shall we dance,
Like spears to my heart,
Shall we dance

I have cried countless tears,
No more tears,
shall we dance,
As we walk that fine line,
shall we dance,
I will hold my head high,
Shall we dance, shall we dance,
I have swallowed my pride,
Shall we dance,

As were perched on the edge,
With my heart clasped in hand,
Like stars in the night,shall we dance
As my heart breaks to bits,
Shall we dance,shall we dance,
As my world turns to night,
Shall we dance,

A Seed Left Planted by AB

When I go back, and view, my life,
I hope that it will read,
like this poem I leave behind,
Planted like a seed,

This person loved to live,
And lived to love and pray,
She dreamed of peace for everyone,
And of a better day,

Were wars were never waged,
And Mothers never cried,
Were babys didn't starve to death,
In hunger left to die,

Were brothers didn't kill, there brothers,
And never beat there wives,
Were people found simple ways,
To fufill and love there lives,

Were all the creatures had respect,
Each found there place on earth,
Were children grew to love themselfs,
Knowing of there worth,

And if I died tommarrow,
I hope someone would say,
She shared her dreams with others,
And helped me find my way.

The Song of Wind and Rain

The wind is talking to me,
It wispers in my ears
It sings it's song, so gentaly,
It comforts all my fears,

It blows away my sadness,
It wisks away my pain,
It makes me feel so endless,
And brings with it the rain,

To wash away my troubles,
To bless the days ahead,
There calling to eachother,
And this is what they said,

They said, you are my lover,
Come dance with me, come chase me,
Togeather we'll be happy,
We'll sing in harmony,

They ran away togeather,
And took with them my fear,
Thier song still lingers slofty,
Ringing gently in my ears.

Frozen by AB

As the darkness sleeps around me,
Waiting for the day to break,
I am sitting here, in silance,
Quitly, no one to wake,

The chilly air, is clear, and piercing,
It bights my bones, and numbs my toes,
And as I sit alone and thinking,
I wonder if your heart has froze,

I think of days, when you were with me,
you always had, something to say,
about the way the world is changing,
Another theory ever day,

You could tell your dreams for hours,
Explain inventions that you made,
draw a picture, here beside me,
But then the memories do fade,

So what has happend to this dreamer,
Have dreams turned, to hate and rage,
Or have they frozen in the cold wind,
Lost in time, Or bounded or caged,

Time will wait for noones feelings,
We all grow old, as time ticks by,
And frozen hearts lay wait in silance,
Happiness to them a lie.

Conterdictions? by AB~

Chasing stars in daylight,
Sunbathing at midnight,
Swimming in the dessart,
Crying at your sight,
Talking with my mouth closed,
Seeing with no eyes,
Dancing when I'm cripped,
Tethered with no ties,
Swinging from no axle,
Spinning while I'm still,
Hungery when I've eatten,
Finding time to kill,
Naked with my clothes on,
Dead but still alive,
Laughing at my heartbreak,
Stabbing with no knive,
Wandering to a perpose,
Loving to an end,
Giving to aquire,
Lying to a friend,
Goals that have no perpuse,
Inmates that have no crime,
Feeling, no emotion,
Riddles with no rym,
Are these contridictions,
Words that make no sence,
Or is they hidden meaning,
Stained, in the contence.

Reaching for Sunshine by AB

I reach for the sun,
And it sinks through my skin,
Basking in warmth,
As the light flows in,

It shines through my windows
And through glass doors pours,
I'm hiding inside,
I wonder what for,

The sun is inviting,
It calles out my name,
But I sitting inside,
Feeling insaine,

I have no idea,
What holds me inside,
Or what is the reason,
That I want to hide,

Invisible chains,
Hold me indoors,
As light streams through my windows,
And knocks on the doors.

Breaking Hearts by AB~

What do you do when they are waking,
What do you do when they are in school,
Were have you gone when they are sleeping,
Do you feel happy, Do you feel cool,
Are you with her, when they are crying,
When they are sick, do you even care,
You say that you miss them, but are lying,
If you miss them, why aren't you here ,
If she loved you, she wouldn't ask you,
To leave your children, to cast them away,
They have missed you every seccond,
They have cried for you, every day,
Were is the love, in the pain that you cause them ,
Why did you do this, to them and to you,
You say your in pain, but it's of your own making,
If she really loves you, she would love them to,
You ask if I'm angry, you ask if I hate you,
I don't even know, what you want me to say,
I think, you are asking, to clear you own consious,
If you want some redemtion, you must find your own way,
I look at there faces, I see your ressemblence,
They are part you, and they are part me,
But everyday, they are changing,
Becoming more of what they see,
I am the one, here to guide them,
I am the one who wipes their tears,
And when your away, they truly miss you,
But I am the one who comforts there fears,
So live you life, and let us be happy,
Let us have joy, back in our lives,
If you want them to know you, then you must be preasent,
Come back to them swiftly, or sever all ties.

I Have Seen a Place of Beauty by AB~

I have seen a place of beauty,
It is far beyond today,

But in my mind I see it clearly,
And in my dreams I know the way,

I see you standing there beside me,
I hear your vioce, I see your face,

Even when you may not know it,
You are with me, in this place,

When the nights are dark and cloudy,
I close my eyes, and drift away,

To this place were I am happy,
Dreaming of a distant day,

Saving My Kisses by AB~

As we say good bye,
My cheeks cannot stay dry,

I try to hold the tears,
But I love you so, my dear,

You will be on my mind,
My thaughts, left behind,

I hold a gental smile,
Crying all the while,

I'll save for you a kiss,
Your words I'll dearly miss,

But when you go away,
Your love, with me, will stay,

To keep me company,
And set my soal free,

Your love the rarest find,
Your vioce so sweet and kind,

I walk as in a trance,
Our love, my final dance,

Come switly back to me,
This my final plea,

And when the day is new,
I, will look, for you,

When, I see, your face,
With my eyes, I will embrace,

Left hanging here in time,
My heart, with yours intwined,

"Reflections of the Past" By AB

Reflections of the past,
keep stealing my time,
Robbing my sainity,
Robbing my mind,
I push them back down,
Deep down, disguised,
But they 've taken there toll,
And broken my inside,
I am exposed,
My feelings, denied,
I try to run,
But lost my pride,
Torn appart,
And left to die,
I pick up the piece,
As the pain subsides,
Clinging to my future,
As the past collides,
Feeling so dead,
Yet so alive,
Tossed upon a life raft,
Asking of my inner guide,
Searching for my dignity,
No were left to hide,
Letting go my shame,
As I swim agginst the tide,
I crossed the mighty ocean,
But, shame met me on the other side.

The World Through Colored Glass by AB

Everything is colorful,
Everything feels right,
My worlds made up of colors,
Painted with the light,
Adventures are, the wings of dreamers,
Time will seek to tame,
But everything is brightly colored,
Through my window pane,
Colors dances in unison,
Thier mysterys untold,
Watching through a hazy glaze,
They magicaly unfold.
Swirling through my daydreams,
And dance before my eyes,
Each individual color,
Holds a story, in disguise,
The colors come togeather,
To paint a rainbow cast,
Through my magic window,
Made of colored glass,
~AB

"When Dark Clouds Descend" by AB

When the sun does not shine,
When dark clouds descend,
I will search for the light,
I will strive 'til the end,
I will never give up,
I will push towards the light,
I will hold myself true,
I will break trough the night,
When I'm drowning in tears,
When the pain tries to win,
I will open the windows,
And let the light in,
I will pull back the shutters,
I will let lose my shame,
I won't be a pawn,
I will play my own game,
When winter has come,
And I'm chilled to the bone,
When I sink in the ocean,
like a lifeless old stone,
I will be my own anchor,
I will raise my own sail,
I will pull myself up,
And blaze my own trail,
When I'm lost in the forest,
And the night steels the day,
I will call to the moon,
By it's light,
Find a way,
Even through darkness ,
We can all find a light,
And pierce through the rain clouds,
And chase back the night,
For the frail can be vital,
And the weak can be strong,
So never give up 'til the gray clouds are gone.
