Homesick
Dedicated with love, to Joshua Caleb McKee
as the leaves fall, the shadows stretch longer across the
ground all is calm, everything in it's place. everything,
except me. i do not belong here, my heart is home, but i can
not be there. how i want to be where you are, how i want to
spend time with you. but i am here and you are there, we can
not be together at this time. so i'll wait until my time has
come, when father calls me home, i'll wait until he says
that it's ok. . . for me to be where you are, for me to spend
time with you. when i am there and you are there and we can
be together for eternity

Quantum Vos Ego Amo
amplius quam aliquid vos ego amo
meus mundus versari circa vos
simulnos animus brevi aliquando
veminisci sempur dun deide
prorsus quantum vos ego amo

From A Lover's Heart
Not wanting to fall, I met you; I can not explain why
There was something about you, I know not what it was
You captured my heart, and I fell into your arms
You held me for a time, made me forget about everything else
There was only you in my eyes
I offered my heart and you took it, willingly, lovingly
What happened, what changed
You have yet my heart, but no longer me
It does not need to be this way, let what we had live on
Let me be yet with you, let me be your sweetheart once more
To beg would be childish, yet hear my plea
I love you truly, I do
Let us be together again

You say it doesn't matter if I don't tell you how I feel,
You can see it in my eyes
You say you love me more than anything after such a short time
You say you've never felt this way before
I never knew two people could be made for each other,
I never knew two souls could be as one,
I didn't want to love you,
I didn't want to care,
I didn't want you in my life
Somehow you found a way into my heart

Remembering
The man was lonely, tired and worn,
he found himself in the attic one evening.
He wanted to go but could not bring himself to leave.
The attic was filled with memories from his youth.
The man rummaged through his old things.
Marbles and bike seats, toy bows and arrows,
taking him back to when he was young.
he saw a young boy crying for his mother who was
lost, A boy who could not be happy,
for fear he would remember his mother,
the young boy was he.
He thought back to when he was young,
he thought of his mother who died when he was yet a
child.
The man missed her much.
Back in the attic, where he stood,
the man came back to the present time.
The man went downstairs,
The man was lonely, tired and worn,
but he was thankfull to be alive.

The Colors Of Freedom
'Twas on this day many years ago,
Independence was gained,
For America from England.
Red, White, and Blue,
These are the colors we know.
Red, for the blood spilt in the war,
White for our victory,
Blue for the freedom and courage to stand up for what we believe.
These are the colors we respect, the colors of hope, and freedom,
These are the colors of America.

There is something about you
I've no idea what it is that makes you different
Why do I trust you so?
Why do I believe every word you utter?
Never before have I felt this way
For years I have trustedno one, believed nothing
So tell me, why you?
What makes you so very different than all the others?
You are everything I ever dreamed of and wanted
Yet you are so much more
So I give you my love
My life, my everything
