dark, Maree Long, reflection, hope
...
SOMEWHERE TOMORROW
Somewhere tomorrow I will meet you there
Somewhere tomorrow sorrows will be laid to rest
Somewhere tomorrow there I will be able to breathe
Somwhere tomorrow we know the sun will rise
Somewhere tomorrow my heart will have new residence
Somewhere tomorrow I won't have to look back
Somewhere tomorrow I will look forward
somewhere tomorrow I will make new plans
somewhere tomorrow somewhere I know it exists
and I will lay my head upon the pillow
and close my eyes upon today and dream
of better things, of better places of a
somewhere of a brighter morrow

nature, Valentine, Valentines Day, Maree Long
...
My Valentine
chocolate love sweet to thy lips
red red roses caress thine beauty
your auburn hair drapes your neck
like fine silken fabric
thine heart that shines thine
matchless worth and I will listen
to the Nightengale sing
our love song of endless summers
How I drink thee in like fine
vineyard wine pressed tenderly
with care and thirst not to
drink from any other vine
for thou are that satiates the soul
of all my longing in life
that fulfills all my hopes and
dreams
thou art my valentine, my lovely
lovely sweet sweet wine whos
fragrant aroma fills the air
when thou are near
who's scent of love sent
across the oceans breeze
fills the very breadth
and depth of all ones needs
more beautiful than jasmine sweet
more exotic than rich green
forests more resilant than love
everlasting that give my heart
.............it's resting place.....

dreams, desire, hope
and there are more dreams........
I walk my life and live it
in the moment of dreams
of thoughts and images
of ones hopes and deep desires
that which is the heart of
revealed inner beliefs and conflicts
lucid and vivid as life moves forward
and brings the yearning to mind
visionary creation of the imagination
finite the time I've been given
quantifiable too precious to waste
but harkens my heart to beat faster still
the delicate weave of consciousness
and that which visits in my sleep
and doth the dream state release
from realities bonds and chains
and there are more dreams
to be had lived with greatest joy
waste not this breath of dream
that calls to each one and all

nature, sunrise, morning, hope
GOOD MORNING
You rise faithfully to greet me each morn
and your shiny dew drapes over the grassy lawn
truth of innovation springs the new ideas
and new value created on days white canvas
you are the first part of my day
you are the best of my day
the cockcrows at dawn long after midnight
has been kissed away and daybreak bursts forth
and I see the morning star burning brightly
above the red tiled roofs peaking through the trees
aurora on the ocean of sunrise's blessing to one and all
and my heart knows all is well as hope lifts higher

"Deceptive Voice of Darkeness"If I suicide.
as the dead dance their waltz thru
Cutting is freedom
deceptive the minds slayers that so suggestsMy life continues it's march
why my soul must be so black
I cry soundlessly
deceptive the voice that sings its lullabyas I cry alone.
leaves of broken, shattered glass
As the tears drip down
deceptive the freedom burning redblack hole that engulfs
stifled by all the ennui
I will die alone.
deceptive the temptress that luresblackest blackness falls
Hair hides eyes from sight.
as the dead rise and beckon
deceptive fear rises in hope to gain controlSilent streams of blood
I'm filled with disillusion
and must weep for the born
deceptive chains that seek to bindI am so alone
Bleed out eternal darkness
Now I cry alone
deceptive joy that fills the voidThe more I struggle
And I will never see light in daylight hour
My only hope dies
deceptive that hope is goneTears of blood rain down
agony too deep to hold
brooding silently
deceptive calls sweeter still that I might not ignorealone in the dark
I wait, alone, I wait, I wait
deception your name is SatanMaree Long
