Loving You

Loving You 

By John M Lennon

The secret vow I vowed to you, 

Be the man you never knew. 

So come day or night, 

I will always be there to hold you tight. 

Dreams of what our life could be like if I held you for the rest of my life. 

No more cold restless nights, 

As it’s our warmth that would comfort our dreams as we held each other tight. 

With laughter and play snuggling in the morning as we lay. 

And when days became night, 

Words we hung onto trying to stay awake,

Fighting the weight of our eye lids so just one more could be said.

And once again in the morning light, 

I’m still holding you tight.

Living now what I know is the perfect life,

Fulfilling the vow I vowed to you, 

And all it has taken is loving you. 

Tear Soaked

Tear Soaked

By John M Lennon 

Capturing each tear as I cried. 

This paper has all the words I wish I could say. 

So as I try and wring them out, it's every word that screams and shouts. 

Not meant to push you away. 

Its just every word these tear soaked pages had to say. 

As We Lie

As We Lie

By John M Lennon

Loyalty and truth

A beauty that resides in you 

Words to confess, wishes to come true 

Every thought begins and ends with you 

Wishing for another moment next to you 

This way I might be able to speak these words 

But tongue twisted and tied 

The pounding of my heart is the only sounds as we lie 

Captivating

Captivating

By John M Lennon 

What words could I say, to brighten your day 

What if I told you all the ways you made me smile today 

So with every ring of my phone I’m hoping it's you 

Thinking about every moment that could be 

Wishing for more and I can't wait to see

Every pondering thought ends with what could this be 

As I sit here I see you have truly captivated me

Another Round

Another Round 

By John M Lennon

Harsh moments of truths

Words I once whispered to you 

Setting out to find my truth 

The emotional roller coaster I use to be

You standing there, the only road block I could see  

Now shut down and cold, the only thing you will ever know 

So as my words slow down

True peace has nothing to be found  

Pictures with smile are an every day act

As it is my heart that forever wears a frown 

Tip toeing through, not making a sound 

As this cold heart is to fragile for another round 

Still Here

Still Here 

By John M Lennon

A memory that can never be erased 

Love that will forever be embraced  

Etched into my heart 

Sown deep into the fabric of my loins 

It’s as I think about you with each word I speak 

Memories that still remind me of the man I use to be 

Childhood memories for us all to laugh at 

But without you how can I really relive the past 

Counting the days is far easier than my tears 

Each one hurting the same… 

As it is without you I am still here…. 

Forgiveness

Forgiveness

By John M Lennon 

The stature to stand strong

But it was you I was leaning on

To buckle when you fold

Now in this place I don’t know 

As I don’t have you their anymore 

To back me like you did before

So it’s inside I have reached 

Seeing the shallow depths of my peaks 

Trying to build a better man 

It’s on my own two legs I must stand 

Breaking my back is my only plan 

Living this life with no gains 

Reliving all of my pain 

Slashing at my weak tonight I finally fall asleep 

One last breath with you I wish I could breathe 

As it would be for forgiveness I would beg and plead 

Embraced

Embraced 

By John M Lennon

An infectious smile to brighten our days,

with courage more ways than words can say.

Parting with a piece of loved ones hearts,

memories to pave the road through the dark.

Sad to say goodbye, praying for you with each tear I cry,

in your Fathers arms you are embraced tonight.

Feeling the power of his love as you watch us from above.

Leaving Today

Leaving Today

By John M Lennon

At an arms reach 

So I don’t get cut too deep 

But ending it this way 

With the right words to push you away

Because it's from this new darkness I speak 

And this new weakness in you I seek...

Better off dead or on my own

Seeing I will always stand alone

Remembering why I am this way

So as this light fades away  

This is the distance at which I stay

Because I will always push everyone away 

Knowing that’s what keeps me alive today

But then here I am forever walking away

And I'm not leaving with one word left to say

Taken Away

Taken Away 

By John M Lennon

One thousand daggers deep 

Every glance your way, another breath of mine you have taken away 

So as I hold you tight my dreams come to life 

You are more than the dream girl for which I asked

It's with you I want to share my every smile and laugh

No more questions of why just pictures of you when I close my eyes

So as I say it today you are the girl that has taken away every breath I held tight

Every word I was scared to say

Every dream I thought had been taken away 

As it is for you I fell today and will love for the rest of my days
