I stroke your face and kiss your eyes
fill your heart with my surprise
Lay with you on a bed of hay
and watch the dawning of the day

The birds are calling
the sun is low
the heat is rising
the pace is slow

in the distance, rays of light
are pulling daytime from the night
the hum of life it starts to rise
another day in someones lives

I regard the colour of the sky
watching life just pass us by
I stop myself from feeling blue
Just by looking right at you

My Mother is a cornerstone
an anchor in my life
for all those times of anguish
you put up with all that strife

You directed me through darker times
helped me see the light
did I always see that?
no I guess not quite.

Ive always known you love me
even when times were bad
your faith has given all us kids
a chance we may not have had.

Those brown knitted swimming trunks
they gave us such a laugh
the gusset swinging twixt my knees
I should have tried them in the bath.

you havent had a lot of things
but what youved had's been ours
your way of being a mother means
we've enjoyed hours and hours

The ex has finally rediscovered the art of tidying up and sorting things out YAY.
Our house has looked like a bomb site for the past ooo 4 years? and the cause of our divorce no less (forget that "I dont love you" nonsense) just a smoke screen for "no one can tell me Im a lazy slob but me"(Ill find someone who wont complain)
And for all her complaining about how much I owe her she seems to be doing just fine financially she just has a problem with leaving me I cant help thinking that the Moose is holding back and he doesnt really like the thought of living with her and all her crap. But in reality he shouldnt know how much crap she has.

Funny thing is she has always maintained she wasnt a money grabber and 50/50 would be ok, now she claims that because she "doesnt think its right to take away the comforts the kids have enjoyed" she now wants 60%. so in effect im being charged 6k to keep the crap she doesnt want or cant be arsed taking. its never been worth that and nor would it to replace.

I look in the sky in the day and see a plane I think of you
I look up at night to the moon and stars I think of you
I wake up I think of you
I go to bed I think of you
I think of you and I think of you
when Im not thinking of you Im wondering why not......and then I think of you

Can I be frank and make it clear?
I have to drink another beer
My head is clear but mind is fuzzy
My face is red just like Juzzy

Its time to let my hair down
and have a laugh or titter
you get the next round in
mine's a pint of bitter

Right from when you wake up
reality is turned on
But does the sensation fade away
when you log on?

Do the things you say and do
really mean the same
as if you say them face to face
or is it just another game?

In this age of internet
we are treading different ground
relationships are they still real
when you power down?

My view is this, do you agree?
That until you meet its just a thought
and when you do, its when you're caught
Either by the truth or fantasy.

If I was to walk a thousand miles
would it make you love me?
would your eyes light up and heart grow warm
Do you love me that completely?

Youre all I want and all I need
to make my life complete
I have my nagging doubts
That say this is deceit

All we can do is wait a while
to find out if its true
and during that time
we will grow our love
we know its what we're due.

A dream is just a dream
who knows what they mean?
they only have credence when
you remember what youve seen

You have to apply what you know
or what may happen to, with
what you saw and felt at night
to make sense of them at all.

are objects always literal?
or do they have deep meaning?
does that tower tilt like that
or is it you thats leaning?

I suppose dreams are like the bible
in that you can see many things
not the same way others do
but can have just as valid meanings.

I dont know the answer to
any questions that Ive asked
all I know is when I wake
I know the moments passed.

I've met this lovely lady
Lucy is her name
she came to me from out there
and wants to be with me
and I feel the same

I may feel stupid writing this
In the future looking back
But the joy she imparts on my soul
really shouldnt hold me back

I need to talk for ages
on the phone or on the net
to get to know her foibles
and what i dont know yet

There you were, a message on my screen
Was it for real or was it a dream
am I going to get hurt again
or will love and honesty prevail
I have to believe its going to work
I couldnt handle another fail.
