A Secret Dream

Heart beats fast
Rushes like it can't last
Silence, s not my task
but it hides
emotions I can't hide

My breath freezes time
I wish it were a crime
But then I see your eyes shine
And I tell myself
I will be fine!

My future is a mystery
My past, a memory!
But it's cuddled in your arms
Where I really want to be

Days may pass
Years have flied
Your smirk still
Reaches my hear
But I am still way too shy

And I tell myself
It's a lie,
It's not real
The feelings that I have
The butterflies I feel

I can convince my soul
But my heart still believes
And when I see you
Across the room
I know looks aren't to be deceived

Millions of stars
Run through my mind
Billions of steps
Before your feet reach mine

Speechless becomes my backspine
Though I rather have
Or fingers entwined
You look at me
And I think of silly rhymes
But in the end,
I know I will be fine

Love is a whisper
Dreams do come true
I smile at you from miles
And I will always
Wait for you.

Sail to the moon

There were times
That were tough
Memories made it rough
Times when the stars were gone
And I forgot how to sleep

The screams that were lashing
The creeks on my eyes
Blown away from the crashing
And trying to muffle my cries

My ears were a curtain
Soaked in blood
My hands were dried cracks
Rotten by the mud

The streets fell
In a voidness
By which much can't say
My time here
Was a blankness
So I'd travel away

I'll sail from the ocean
I'll sail to the moon
My home will be bygone
And I won't stop till noon

My dreams
will be forgotten
As I flee from thy land
Hope is my new abide
That was once stolen
Your man

And the truth that
Had befallen
Washed away from the rain
Will rise like a dandelion
Blown but still remains

The sky was a hazard
Gleaming with flames
Withered bodies with fire
And you forgot your shame

So I'll sail to the moon
In the night of the sea
I'll sail in the deepest water
Where stars will shine down on me

Time will be a broken watch
But I will sleep in peace
No shout or cry to be heard
Will be enough for a feast

My home is abolished
My people are destroyed
Their power is immune to me
So I'm sailing to the moon

Baby Girl

I had a dream.
It was about a baby.
A baby girl,
That was mine.
I gave birth to her.
And held her for the first time.
I made sure she was safe.
I took her to my place.
I kept her in my arms.
My baby girl
Who was al mine.
I looked at her small face.
All white and pink.
Her hand so small
That that hold my finger;
And I know that she and I will always be there for each other.
Her smile makes my day.
She is the joy to my life.
I love her with all I'm worth...
I wake up.
And I free an emptiness in my chest.
One that was never there before.
Something feels terribly wrong.
Like I've lost something
And I don't know what.
My baby girl..,
I promised her I'd always be there.
Where is she?
I'm going crazy with her not here.
Where is she?
My baby girl...
The emptiness is still there
Even though its been a few days.
It was just a dream...
But it felt so real.
She was real.
I know she was.
We were connected
And I felt it.
I close my eyes
Every now and then to picture her...
I see this little baby
In white clothes
Smiling and moving her hands.
I know I named her
As much as I loved her.
My baby girl.
I can't wait to see you again
Baby girl...
Mama will always be here to keep you safe and love you forever.
Baby girl.
