Alright, I dont usually post these anywhere other than Myspace, but I figured there are alot of my friends who like them, so maybe some of you will also.
When I write, I usually have a melody in my head, and they are written in form of a song. They come fairly easy since the music helps dictate the lyrics. Here are a couple. And if anyone is interested, I can post more.

Take Away
I'm not the only one who is broken,
But I am the only one to blame.
Sheaded fears like a distant memory
Reclaim their place within my mind.
Soaring like the eagles was too hard to control
And in selfishness I lost my soul.
I dreamed the only dream I was made of,
It took me higher then before.
To reach the mountains and touch the clouds
I breathed the air of some place else.
Can I watch the setting sun lay down
Before it crashes into the sea?
More distant then an echo
More haunting then a cry,
I turn to go run and hide.
The soft embrace of someone that I love
The chilling wayward smile that calls.
To walk the wonders and seach a lifetime
For things which are impossible to find.
If I stay here only one last time.
Will you wait for when I am done and tired?
Could this be whats left from all the years?
One last look of immortality.
My heart sings, "Can you take this pain away?"
My life brings hope and meaning through the days
This time, I will forget most everything
If you could take the pain away.
Laying down in an endless field
The wind sofy kisses my face
The skys above me, the earth below me
Know not how I fell.
The silver lining on the clouds
Are just a glimpse into the rageing storm
The lantern holds bright within this endless night
The city silence is its vow.
Can I hold you for this last goodbye?
Until the twilight is our shoud.
The echos of the childerns cries
Shouldnt be on muted ears.
I love you, could you take this pain away?
I found you, could you take me to a better place?
I want you, will you be my memory?
I cant do, anything without you
For all I've done and all I tried,
For all I've lost, I can confide
For what I want and who I am
For where I finish and begin
Tell me now one last time
Take my fears and take my pain
Take these regrets and this shame
Take this sorrow I dont want it now
Take this time and stay with me
Take my heart and my missery
Take this world I use to love
Take it now with all you can
To take it, to want it to love it to feel it, to hold me there one last time.

Breathe Again
Through these days of steel
My walk thorugh life surreal
I come together,
As the only one
Chard from burning days
The sun's yellow rays
Blind my eyes
from the path I take.
And Im still trying
To take this path
But im still laying
On the one before
Now that we are here
Into unknown I know
Is the only no
Which surpassed me
At the top of my climb
Went up to breathe the air
With a glimce so rare
Painted portrait
On a canvas sky
Dreams from all ages
Lost in time
and their haunting
past defined
Broken bottles wash up on the sand
Communicating passing judgement
Allocating what is left
And when the final wave
Has gone and washed away
I will not be the one
who's left there on the shore
From last hope I hang
My thoughts boomerang
and bring me back
To their starting point.
Gone from here again
Cant see if it will begin
As Im waiting,
For just one touch
And Im trying,
To breathe again
As they're failing
To see what a loss.
