Diamond In The Rough

She was born in the buff
Lil' miss diamond in the rough
Life's little cuts and nicks
Shaped her real quick
From the inside
She couldn't see
That on the outside
She shone brilliantly

Refrain:
We shine so bright
We can not see
That life attracts like
I see reflections of you
Inside of me
Only a diamond
Can cut another diamond
Ruby red blood we bleed
It doesn't change the fact
You're the one I need

He was born in the buff
Mister diamond in the rough
Life's little cuts and nicks
Shaped hin real quick
From the inside
He couldn't see
That on the outside
He shone brilliantly

Refrain:
We shine so bright
We can not see
That like attracts like
I see reflections of you
Inside of me
Only a diamond
Can cut another diamond
Ruby red blood we bleed
It doesn't change the fact
You're the one I need

We were born in the buff
Lil' diamonds in the rough
Life's little cuts and nicks
Shaped us real quick
From the inside
We couldn't see
That on the outside
We shone brilliantly

Refrain:
We shine so bright
We can not see
That like attracts like
I see reflections of you
Inside of me
Only a diamond
Can cut another diamond
Ruby red blood we bled
It doesn't change the fact
You're the one I need

Luner Eclipse

Pale ghost of the moon
Hangs in the midday sky
I can't shine as bright as you
No matter how hard I try
Solaris always burns so bright
Luna just reflects his light
Sol has gone on his own
Diana left to rule alone
Night runs after day
I have no where to run
Since you have gone away
My love for you waxes and wanes
It ebbs and flows with my pain
Dark is my soul
Dark is my heart
Dark are my thoughts
While we are apart
I reach for the sun
On a cold rainy day
I reach for t he sun
But he won't shine today
Day swallows the night
In the shadows I would stay
Shining in your light
In your shadows I would stay
I you would come back tonight

Wedding Vow Sonnet

I, Anna, take you, beloved friend Daniel,
My Kindred Spirit, to be my husband.
To live out our lives under God's command.
To take loving care of you when you're ill.
And be by your side in times of good health.
To pledge love, loyality and faithfulness
To you for all times, even when we have less
As well for the times when we enjoy wealth.
To always share with you what joy may come
And to comfort you when we face sorrow.
To give you strength for today and tomorrow.
Forgiving you past things that have been done.
I pleadge this vow as long as I have breath,
To be your wife, until parted by death.

If I Could

If I could take your pain away I would.
I would take it into me so you wouldn't hurt.
If I could love away your sorrow I would.
I would give everything I have for you.
If I could make you feel whole again I would.
I would give myself completly to you.
Whenever you are ready let me know.
Because if I can, I will.

Ghosts Of The Past

Ghost of the past
memories reawaken
haunt me
dead feelings
long ago buried
arise as if
to take
possession
of me
a little boy's
last hug
to his mama
knives run
up and down
on my bare body
he told me
Nicole Simpson
had an easier end
then I would
the nightmares
following me
through the years
everyone I love
dead and gone
I am all alone

Goodbye, Friend

Friend, like a brother, though we be no kin.
Sadly I found out about your life's end.
So many things you left undone.
Your life had just begun.
And one thought I hold true.
When I send my prayers to you.
When it is my time at heaven's door.
I will greet you on that golden shore.
