                                              To Fall In Love

Capture my gaze, my endless stare
the flawless flame, your evil hair
that innocent smile, would i be the thief
to steal that fire to hide beneath
to open the lock that holds my words
to say to you, to lack the courage
look at my heart, not with your eyes
the feelings held a thousand times
only for you, should they grow cold
not this life, before I'm old
magic dust, the more i breathe
the moments slip, which one to seize
like falling leaves that slip away
miss the season, lose the day
with nothing to frame upon my wall
but only my thoughts, remember it all
then i have been a happy man
to think of it all, that might have been

Scott Bledsoe DECEMBER 1994

                                                       

                                                               Longing

In the night lined with singeing sadness
the tearless face scream to life
tracing games they play for ashes
lose it all when angels cry

when the day calls the dreams of fire
when careless wishes come ringing true
with every beat the heart sinks deeper
into the endless mass of blue

the sun that beckons love to wither
away to tangled threads of faded light
the dying voices seem to carry
out from beneath the jaded sight

labor on to pull the tassels
destroying souls with rays of hope
that bring with them the broken castles
and pools of madness where they soak

when all is said and done is closer
and nothing seem to make any sense
and passion waits beyond the horizon
scratch it off from the list

the moon just pulls away its magic
novelty drifts into reality
were those thoughts ever worth thinking?
weren't for a heart never free.
