Trying to find emotions
Trying to form thoughts
To fill the enptyness
That is growing in my mind.
Fighting to hold on
Struggling to comsentrate
On keeping these thoughts
From fleeing my grasp.
I open my mouth and tears
Come to my eyes.
My mind tries to think clearly
And my heart begins melt.
My hand tightens
And my lip is swollen.
"I will not give up"
I silently scream.
Finally a word comes to me,
Then another and then more.
I start singing, quiet slowly increasing
I have a voice once more.
Emotions come in churning waves,
Interweaving themselves into thoughts.
No longer keeping afar, words
Find their place on my lips easly.
Windows to new worlds have been opened,
Doors to greater places have been burst.
My mind now flying through time,
Searching and creating a better me.

Friends and dark nights in Northport
Pullin' up in the drive and hearin' voices
Smilin' at the recognition of friends laughter
Openin' up the car door and breathe in the energy
Steppin' out and greetin' them with hugs.
That's how summer nights aught to be in Northport!
Walkin' through the front door as the smells hit you in the face
Split wood,body sweat, and chili on the stove.
Hearin' the good old music comin' from the livin' room
And crys from the back bedroom of the little ones.
That's how summer nights aught to be in Northport!
Stumps for cairs around a fire pit and wire skewers for the hotdogs
Mayonaise and mustard and hotdog buns on the table
Marshmellows being thrown throught the air,
Dog fights and dogpiles and wrestling in the dirt.
That's how summer night are in Northport!
Watchin' the sparks flyin' from the flames
Floatin' up to disappear among the stars.
Pretty faces and sexy girls across the fire and on my lap
Bros and brothers causin' me to die laughin'.
That's how summer night are in Northport!
Talkin' about our past and tellin' stories not to be repeated,
makin' laughs and serious moments with smors in our hands.
Walkin' through the town at midnight frightenin' our shadows,
Doin' push-ups in the street and cross dressin' on corners.
That's how suumer nights are in Northport!
Runnin' and screamin' durin' "ninja tag" Who'll be the next one "it" ?
Jumpin' into the fridged water of the river and comin' out yellin'
Holdin' onto each other for warmth and more hugs,
Keep everyone close and makin' more memories and stories to tell.
That's a summer's night in Northport!
Smilin' at the recognition of friends laughter
Openin' up the car door and breathe in the energy
Steppin' out and greetin' them with hugs.

You make my head spin around in circles,
I can't stand up striaght.
You open up all my senses,
"Damn girl, you look great!"
I wanna stay right here with you,
Never let you go,
But before you get any ideas about me
There somethin' you need to know...
It's when I put my shirt on backwards,
Or take a wrong turn.
Leave my wallet on the counter,
Or let the macaroni burn;
It's not just because I'm absent minded,
Although that might be true,
It's also cause you're aways on my mind.
I've been thinking about you.
I can't stand up striaght.

I've been thinking about you.

One Alone! Surviving!
The darksurrounds me, light flashes.
Smoke, dust, the smell of burnt flesh
From fallen comrads and enimies' cuts and gashes.
My pounding heart constricting my heated breathe!
Memories flashing, my head is clouded
With the brutal struggles of the recent past.
My life is confused, Reallity is doubted.
Thoughts lashing out at images of hours before.
The blur clears away from my eyes,
Reveiling the death that cover the ground.
Black birds and vultures are all that move,
Save the spirits and ghosts leaving the bodies.

A Dreamy Feeling
Lying in bed wide awake, staring at the ceiling.
Lights on all around me, so dark is my room.
Someone is watching me I know, I can't explain this feeling.
Looking off into nothingness, the wall surround my head.
Seeing dark and emptyness, so full are my dreams.
Laying here on my back, thinking in my bed.
Thoughts cover me, but they aren't mine.
They come from somewhere else, so familiar and yet so strange.
"Who's there?" I cry, reaching out with caution.
And though I try to perceive through the black, my mind has no range.
It's so Gentle!! I realize, this being watching me.
For if it were not, here, I surely would not be.
It's here and yet it's not, I feel her hand on my heart.
Alas! That must be it! My Love is dreaming of me.
