Late hours, rain pouring outside my window

Passing showers, thunder clamoring, and I know

It’s the time, when I find the words so easily

When they rhyme, thoughts coming on, so peacefully

What is it, about the sounds of nature’s wrath?

Why do I sit, instead of seeking out its path?

To wander about, feel the water on my face

I have no doubt, I’d get lost in such a place

Instead I’m here, listening instead of being

How I wish to disappear, the power surely freeing

To get lost, in a world outside this room

At any cost, to do away with all this gloom

But here I stay, my fingers speak of what I see

In every way, I shall remember, this is me

Remember the magic, once held in your hand
Cast out to the waters, like fine grains of sand
Washed away in the mist, headed out to the sea
Mystical feelings that aren’t meant to be

Left on the rocks, all alone, with the wind
That caresses your hair, swirls, then rescinds
Like the love you once felt, deep in your heart
That spell has been broken, and it tears you apart

Leaving you to search for the answers, anew
Praying toward the light, in the sky, above you
Seeking, and yet, there is nothing to find
You wonder why life, must be so unkind

Still, you remain, under a spell, which you cast
Forgetting the others, from your quite human past
In agony, you struggle, as part woman, part fish
To remember the magic, tis your one final wish

I want to draw you

Memorize the contours of your face

Sketch the intricate lines of your eyes

Your nose, your mouth, that jawline

That draws me in, every time I’m near you

I want to erase the worry,

And replace the doubt

With the delicate strokes of my hands
