Owls and Orchids

Please, Listen to my words

Hear what I have to say

Don’t assume you understand

The words mean exactly what you hear

There is so much more

Behind those simple words

Yet you reject what I say

Because their meaning is filled with fear

There is no point in trying to stay

It’s really not too hard

Just hearing what is being said

Understand the emotion

In your heart and not your head

There is no more hope

In going on this way

Like two ships on different courses

Whose paths were never meant to cross

I see a stranger before me now

One I thought I knew so well

But the man I thought I knew

Could never say the things you’ve said

Could never do the things you’ve done

I don’t know you any longer

This feeling only grows stronger

How much more should I endure

Before I drown under this load

NO MORE

The dreams are gone and shattered

Like so much else that no longer can matter

I’m empty inside

A feeling I try always to hide

But it all must end soon

I’ll be gone this time before  the next full moon

I’ll try to regain all I’ve lost

My heart and soul, my self-respect

What else can I now expect

But to become all that has been lost
