In Midst of a Mist

In this mist of darkness I can now see my face

So I search and I run for a hiding place

When I look to find what I always deny

I wonder what it matters if I still try

Can a soul such as mine really hollow over time?

While I've done terrible things, I've not commited a crime

In the midst of darkness I have in my life

I search for an ending to all this strife

And I look to find what I once denied

To find it no more, I feel gratified

Now this soul grown hollow is like a child

But I'll still search for love as I'm running wild.

My Soul Lies With Hers

She's a lovely girl, why, she's the love of my life.

But lately, the sound of her voice cuts through me like a knife.

And I can't help but wonder where she'll be in ten years.

That very thought, is one of my few fears.

Can't let her go. I love her, can't let her go.

She's the one in my dreams, the one girl I truly know.

Once I leave I'll think of what should have been done.

They say, "the one that got away" and I know she'll be the one.

Yes, she's a lovely girl, but I feel trapped out at sea.

I tread in her flood of signals and feelings, but does she love me?

She smiles, not just through her lips, but through her dark eyes.

But that same sweet smile is what brings out all my cries.

And my heart dies...

My heart no longer flies.

Her heart... the tomb for my soul, where my love truly lies.
