Will You?

You may understand how I unraveled,

for on the same path you have traveled.

If I lean in your direction,

will you give my heart protection?

If you place your hand in mine,

I think again, the sun might shine.

and upon the shadows of my face,

there will be no longer be a trace.

Will you be my port in this storm,

and show me tenderness to keep me warm?

Will you promise to be a true friend,

and love me 'til the very end?

Together, there may be a fleeting chance,

to live a happy, true romance.

Good Bye 2009

2009 was a very eventful year. As I made my resolutions and conjured up new dreams last year on this very day, little did I know the reality I would come to experience. What a roller coaster ride the past year has been. I have known happiness, sadness, sickness, health...and well too many other things - many of which you have read through my sometimes true to life poetry. Just like last year, I have resolutions and dreams. I love the blank slate of a new year..nice, neat clean pages upon which I will continue to write my story. Hopefully the wisdom of 2009 will only serve to light my fire within and I will walk my path to fate. There are lots of new changes that happened for me at the end of 2009, both good and bad, so I am ready to soar above and live the life I'm meant to live! I want to thank you, dear readers, for your continued support, friendship, and love that you have so kindly bestowed upon me. I never knew what I was getting into one year ago when I began this blog and friends, it's been worth the ride! Bring on 2010. Are ya with me?

Sia - Breathe Me

A song that touches me every time...



Help, I have done it again
I have been here many times before
Hurt myself again today
And the worst part is there's no one else to blame

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me, I am small and needy
Warm me up and breathe me

Ouch, I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found
Yeah, I think I might break
Lost myself again and I feel unsafe

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me, I am small and needy
Warm me up and breathe me

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me, I am small and needy
Warm me up and breathe me

Sia - Breathe me

Ideals

I am an eternal dreamer
and so loyal to a fault

I love floating away to solitude
bringing nonsensical mingling to a halt

I will wait for the best of the finest dreams
and all of those ideals that I have conjured up

and so I continue the search for the largest rainbow
for which will guide me to the golden cup

it will be a grand chalice to sip that brings
sweet love and friendship 'til the end

as the owner of the steaming brew will
not doubt me or pretend

to be moving forth to
something we may both want

when the beginning really is the
end and it's only purpose is to jaunt

Floating

The sadness that you left behind
has been washed away by salty tears

and the doubt that you instilled in me
lingers - amidst my strongest fears

Though, I know a secret and I keep it well
in a vault - under lock and key

For if I whisper it aloud
there'll be nothing left of me

So here I sit refreshed and ready to move forth
I'll come to know some grander things

but I'll hold fast to the memory of those days
when I was floating with an angel's wings

Somebody's Somethin'

he's still waiting on that hand to hold
a heart to have, maybe some truth to be told

hoping's slow now to be somebody's something
boring of the wait and being nobody's nothing

thinking to hard and way too deep
worrying a lot, skippin' out on sleep

doubting comes quick, trustin's never been secure
loyalty's in front of him - her truth is pure

Subject to Change

Those words I once penned
in the stillness of night
were left carelessly out in the rain

the bleeding, ink and blurred remains
are all that's left behind

I gave a shrug and a sigh
beneath the cobwebs of my mind

where the voice of intuition whispered
you've been down this path before

but the weight of a hopeful heavy heart
doubted that escape clause

which in no uncertain terms
sang I'll love you now
but not 'til forever
for life is subject to change

Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas to all of my friends and readers!

I so appreciate your kindess, comments and critique. This blog has given me purpose, a bit more self-respect and just maybe the realization that I might have something important to say every now and then.

May your days and nights be blessed! Believe in those dreams that hide deepest within you.

Much love and warmest wishes,

Noelle

Show Me The Way Lyrics

here.

Every night I say a prayer in the hope that there's a heaven
And every day I'm more confused as the saints turn into sinners
All the heroes and legends I knew as a child have fallen to idols of clay
And I feel this empty place inside so afraid that I've lost my faith

Show me the way, show me the way
Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
Show me the way

And as I slowly drift to sleep, for a moment dreams are sacred
I close my eyes and know there's peace in a world so filled with hatred
That I wake up each morning and turn on the news to find we've so far to go
And I keep on hoping for a sign, so afraid that I just won't know

Show me the way, Show me the way
Take me tonight to the mountain
And wash my confusion away

And if I feel light, should I believe
Tell me how will I know

Show me the way, show me the way
Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
Show me the way, show me the way
Give me the strength and the courage
To believe that I'll get there someday
Show me the way

Every night I say a prayer
In the hope that there's a heaven...

'twas just a dream....

his words drip with disinterest
and the truth is revealed
as he fails to look her in the eyes
no questions left to ponder
as all uncertainty is gone
he wants to have it all his way...
the poison of his self-centeredness
has chipped away her desire
to follow through with acquiescence
in hopes of something more
the apparation reveals the truth
in the day light of her mind
'twas just a dream of a lonesome heart
and now it's time to say good bye
