A Silent Tear
Today I cried a silent tear
for all the times we fought;
for all the times I wanted to talk,
and simply just forgot.
Today I cried a silent tear
for all the time we've been apart;
for all the times that I was wrong
and knew it in my heart.
Today I cried a silent tear
for upsetting you with my past;
for holding that against you,
and thinking we wouldn't last.
Today I cried a silent tear
and put it all behind...
tucked it in a little corner
far, far in the back of my mind.

Underwater
My beast makes me sigh so deep.
I never sighed so deep before.
She is teaching me her lore,
beside, beneath the ocean's roar.
Perhaps we're creatures of the deep:
profound, subaqueous, a school of two
who strayed away from their ocean lair
to a ground of animals
where
we gasped for water
instead of air.

Down The Road
How often we fear the road up ahead,
How often we dread the unknown.
How often, too, do we tend to forget
That we never walk alone.
I understand now every misgiving,
For fear is a part of us all.
But, in faith, make each step firm and steady,
And darling, I won't let you fall.
I am here, now, walking beside you
With a love that will never fail.
My arm about your shoulders,
My eye upon the trail.
