Only a part of something that was missing for so long
Until the light shone down onto the world one day
Forever stuck in such a sad, sad song
Only waiting for the violins to start to play
-
Until that day, nothing in life was so abundant
The sounds of glee and peaceful tidings rolled off like nothing
Each day felt little more than an exercise in the redundant
Until the day the light shone down with promises of a better something
-
For all the fear and all the trepidation
From a life so wrought with unnatural misery and grief
A leap of faith was taken, and you became my fixation
From the loneliness and abandonment, finally feeling some relief
-
So long, to believe one is not worthy of something so true
A life spent watching everyone lie before they would disappear
To the heavens, I would be thankful for bringing me to you
No longer were there invisible voices whispering in my ear
-
A turbulence erupted so swiftly that from where I did not know
To see the light radiating from you made me naive
No sin too great for me to give up and go
It was only you in whom I would forever believe
-
You made me want for the dream
It was something that I would cower and hide from before
A harsh lesson I was due, so it would seem
As the truth was, you always had one foot already out the door
-
"It was never love," or so you say
Crueler words have never been spoken
If there's a God in Heaven, may you have to see your sins someday
And etched into your memory, the face of the one you've broken

From fiction to reality there’s tons to share about this crazy life. From being a single father, an officer, and having had many insane adventures while I learned about the world, my imagination runs wild with ideas.
