I like the quiet places, the silent places -
places inside my head.
Places where I can run and hide
in the moments when I feel afraid.
...
You placed your hand in my heart -
what were you thinking when love took hold?
It couldn't last forever, but you gave me hope;
You took away mortality and gave me
...
Bless me with light, that I may see your face.
Shine your radiance upon me.
Let me feel the spark of love once graced...
...
Angel, you are my beloved
because God sent you to stand at my side.
He led me to see you, and in the seeing
my heart met your desire.
...
I leave a candle burning in the window
to guide you safely home each night.
I clear a path for you to find your way,
and each night I keep watch and hold hope.
...
If I go one day without you,
Will I survive the hours
and the chiming of the clock?
If you leave me, and don't look back,
...
Why do you kill the night
with too much song?
Too many nights have passed
in silent lullabies...
...
You are the tenderness
that inspires me to write
of music and poetry -
and of love, and of life.
...
I see the sun in the sky
and I know the morning dew
and the light of day has arrived.
When I see the moon in the sky
...
