Oh Alexandria...

She takes off her shirt
He smiles of course
But it’s just not the same
She secretly wants to scream out an old lover’s name

Sleeping beneath his sheets
Seeking comfort she so much wants to be there
Finding only cold blankets
While he is finding his shoes
She don’t know what to do

Something is lacking
Chemistry is not matching
But she stays cause she put in the time
Never stopping to ask your self why?

Things are not going according to plan
Thinking she could change such a man
Denial is her best friend
And reality a mirage
She knows this relationship has gone on too long

He does not love her
And this she already knows
The guy who did
She carelessly let him go
So she cry’s her self to sleep in her bed
He’s not the kind of guy who gives kisses on the forehead

Down on one Knee

We stood on Mount Washington over looking the Pittsburgh sky.
I was feeling so sick to my stomach,
I think it was from the butterflies inside.
You could tell something was different,
That this evening was going to be special
And you were right.
For tonight our lives will change
And from this moment on we will never be the same.

Even from the beginning I wanted to wake up next to you.
You’re the girl I want by my side,
With you in my life Im so excited to be alive
And every day I still believe
You bring out the best in me

I don’t care what mom says
Or if were ready just yet.
The timing is now and couldn’t be any better
Look at all the storms that we have weathered
We lasted a few years and then we made it through four
And I feel we can last a 100 more.
(Ring in my pocket, who would have thought it)

I grab you by your hand,
(I hope I’m everything you wanted in a man.)
I’m down on one knee,
Emotions erupted in your eyes.
(Can you believe this is happening?)
We waited for this all of our lives.
Even I got choke up and all I can get out was a whisper;
“You are my girl,
You are my life,
So I’m asking you…
Will you be my wife?”

February 14th Blues

So what’s with all this red, white, and pink?
This holiday seems familiar; oh… it must be Valentines Day
I’m finding no Valentines addressed to me in my box
I guess maybe they just forgot.

Ah anther year alone
Found no one special to call my own
I have no chocolate cover hearts to give away
I’m just feeling really sick right now
It must be a case of February 14th blues

I have no one to be sending flowers of red roses
For this one day my heart feels like it has been frozen
Pure a glass of scotch
Let it chill on the rocks.
No one has ever died from drowning in sorrow
I’ll do anything to speed up this day to get to tomorrow.

Everyone will be with there loved one celebrating their happiness
Everyone will be having someone to kiss.
They might even be celebrating 3 great years
They will toast their glass and smile from ear to ear.

Why am I getting so jealous and heated?
Why do I feel like I’m cursed and cheated!

What is this stuck between the door?
It looks like a letter… how is I didn’t see this before?
The envelope is pink and covered with heart stickers.
(It reads)
“to my TrueLove..my only love”

I'm Ok With It

We don’t talk on the Phone
And I no longer hear your voice.
But I’m ok with it.

You’re calling someone else sweetheart
And waiting for his call; not mine.
But I’m ok with it.

No longer do you dream of me
And I don’t see you when I close my eyes.
But I’m ok with it.

You’re holding other hands
I’m sure your kissing other guys
But I’m ok with it.

I’m sure you’re out drinking
And sleeping over his apartment.
But I’m ok with it.

You’re happier in his arms.
And no longer wrapped up with me.
But I’m ok with it.

I’m starting to forget all about you.
My memories are being washed away.
And this time I’m ok with it.

Embers Burn Deep

In your pictures you’re smiling and laughing
I hope you found what makes you happy
I couldn’t but maybe he can

I like to think
That you will come back in a later chapter
And well write a story how we lived happily ever after

Always a dreamer
Tossing coins down this well
Praying for one to come true.

That’s just wishful thinking at best
But I must contest
The flame may be out
But embers burn deep

Do I ever creep in your mind?
Releasing memories of a thousand good times
Emotions erupt in your eyes
Love and hate
Cascading down your face
Beading off you checks and nose

Get these winds blowing
Get these embers glowing.
Strike a match
Cause a spark
Lets do it right
Let’s do it with a fresh start

Lets Try to Erase Mistakes

Apologies are useless
When you won’t even speak to me
Make clams that you’re leaving me
But your toothbrush is still here.
Are we really going to let one innocent kiss
ruin all of this?

She’s screaming from the doorway
“Why do I love someone who does nothing but make me cry!”
I sigh…
No comeback this time.
The best thing in my life is ready to walk
And I’m to scared to open my mouth to talk

She’s crying in her room
Not knowing what to do
Her heart is telling her to stay
But how can she after being betrayed.

I deserver everything I get
Never thought I would let you down like this.
I took all that you gave
And if you’re no longer in my life
I rather be buried in a grave.

I wanted to show you how sorry I am
So I wrote you a letter of my remorse
Here comes my curse
(or maybe just karma)
Some how the pages got lost and ragged,
torn and tattered.
I hope that’s not a sign of things to come...

Maybe Christmas?

So do you miss it?
Maybe I’ll see you at Christmas
When the sky is falling and grey
I’ll take you under the mistletoe any day

Its cold out side but you look so cute in your baby blues
The Holidays would not be the same with out you.
I know that time has pass and feelings can change
But come on… we both know we feel the same.
You know you love me babe!

Well there’s snow on the ground
Out side well play,
well do this all day.
Your cheeks on now rosy
inside well get cozy
And I’ll hold you close to my heart.

The snow is now falling
Dancing in the twilight sky.
This Christmas will be the beginning of no more good byes
We will pray for something better then this
And Holiday wishes do come true.
I could not imagine Christmas with out……
(Merry Christmas chalsie)
