Love
Love is a special, priceless thing
discovered by too few.
Sometimes symbollized by a ring,
or by what we say and do.
Love is the beauty and the smell
of rain falling on the trees,
or the key that unlocks a prison cell;
the one thing that sets us free.
Love is that all too unique gift
that can catch a heart afire--
it can mend and heal every rift
to take us higher and higher!
Love is that all special something
we should never let fade from view.
A song of peace we can sing;
all that I feel inside for you.

Blackness
Blackness descends; evening's tide.
Nocturnal beasts that by day hide
come out to greet the ebony haze.
Eyes glow green and return my gaze.
Afraid of what I cannot see
and shadows which crawl over me;
I try to run, but it's too late.
Eternal blackness is my fate.

Interloper
An interloper
Malignant shadows intrude
The sad face of death
