Last Time

This will be the last time I can write my mind out Wear my heart on my sleeve This will be the last time I cry my eyes out And look back on time This will be the last time We will get together and play Like six year olds under the sun This will be the last time We can indulge our fantasies And recklessly go forth This will be the last time I say 'hello' with a 'goodbye' later And wish it was not forever This will be the last time I say 'I'll miss you' and know That I always will This will be the last time All my defenses will be down And I'll let you get so close This will be the last time To our current life of best things And the first time to the unknown And for the first time I truly say If we ever meet again We will not be the same.

House Of Loss

Alone now, so lost
Reduced to a friendly ghost
Haunting her house
With so many memories' stain

Melodies she sings
A fire not put out by rain
About her child and her ring
About a marriage gone insane

A child fills that place
You never knew was empty
Her husband too lost face
Left her a little too early

May be he was not worth it
Or may be he despaired
That his seed was done in
That he was unprepared

She hums a small lullaby
For child now gone
But still alive in her heart
From where these songs are torn

Yet she'll always remember
Can't forget the pain
Living in the house of loss
Where the memories still remain
