huricane

i almost feel like i shouldn’t
be alone
i almost feel like an eye
of the storm
searching for a place
to calm down and stay

come along with me
before
the autumn leaves fall
enjoy
the colors from above
transitions of gray

tide

I knew...
Somehow...
That I had to stay alive.
Somehow.
I had to keep breathing.
Even though there was no reason to hope.
And all my logic said that I will never see this place again.
So that’s what I did.
I stayed alive.
I kept breathing.
And then one day that logic was proven all wrong.
Because the tide...
Came in, and gave me a sail.
And now, here I am.
I’m back...
In Memphis, talking to you.
I have ice in my glass.
And I've lost her all over again
I’m so sad that I don't have Kelly.
But I'm so grateful that she was with me on that island.
And I know what I have to do now.
I gotta keep breathing.
Because tomorrow, the sun will rise.
Who knows what the tide could bring?

alone

what i do know
seams not what i truly care for
its just a lure to keep you near
ahead of fear from alone

i left my love in the big city
my little flower tulipan
it might take another lifetime
to forgive me what i've done

i must take my journey east
to the land of the samurai
to ocupy my mind and soul
ahead of fear from alone
