The Graveyard Beckons

Simple pleasures of life,

A friend in quiet times,

A book on a rainy day,

By the sea on a summer day,

Time passes so fast,

It's hard when things don't last,

Memories fade to grey,

Love turns ashen faced today,

Everything has a rhyme,

And even if it was not yet time,

When you stand on my grave today,

Cry no tears. I lived my way.

Before The Night Ends

Before the sky turns pale blue,
Before the stars sing the final tune,
Before the moon waves us goodbye,
Before the sun brightens the sky,

I had a few words I'd like to say,
It's not something new I made up today,
It's something I wanted to say for such a long time,
I've fallen in love with you, my quiet dime.
