John McClay

Have you heard of the deafening silence?
It rips though your heart
And screams through your mind
...

I dream of a secret garden
Filled with roses
And a bench that seats two
...

With these hands I will defend you.
With these arms I will hold you.
With this heart I will love you.
...

I cannot think
I cannot breathe
Your arms are so warm
It amazes me
...

On one beautiful day
I wished upon a star
In hopes that my feelings
Would travel quite far
...

I'll give you my love
and ask nothing in return

I'll give you my heart
...

I wonder what it would be like to be a star?
Shining in the heavens,
Watching over the world
...

I wish I could show you
My surreal world
That you have inspired
...

I walk alone
On this one-way trail
Searching for what I seek
But to no avail
...

A dream catcher, made of wood and string
Catches nightmares
And safeguards good dreams
...

In my bed
I lay to sleep
I hope some day
These words I’ll keep
...

I made this world
A world for you
A place filled with love
A place only we knew
...

Where are you?
Why can't I find you?
I search and search
In this darkness
...

I'm all wrong!
Somebody made a mistake
Somewhere down the line
...

Man walks in the woods
Sees a frantic animal
He opens the trap
...

From the lights above,
to the lights below,
our quiet stage,
is a glow.
...

'Through thick and thin; '
That's the promise we make,
Standing face to face,
Our future lives at stake.
...

We are in the middle of a storm
A storm that threatens to overcome us
A storm with no end in sight
...

I wish I could find the right words
The words that deswcribe my feelings for you
For 'I love you' just isn't enough.
...

There is a monster inside of me.
It threatens to overcome my soul -
To erase my existance from this world.
...
