My Angel Evermore (2012)

Somewhere on the side of everwhere
she lies, the angel of heaven's
emptiness come home to earth below.
She walks as faith, as he, she weeps;
my angel heavensent cries to eternity,
the ghost of neverwhere omnipresent.

Wings of gold, on black, on snow, she's
the winter queen, the muse, the fey,
pirouette, bow, swing, the strings they
tremble under her step, a melody haunting.

My eyes closed, I see you, my angel;
a moment ago you were but a memory,
now the dream, evermore evermore you
lay with me, nevermore, only but a memory,
never more to lay with me, never more
to come home to me.

Ten Thousand (2012)

Ten thousand steps, a roar like
gunfire, children march by and
by, rolling thunder, rolling
thunder.
Facing faceless, a visage so
pure, the faceless face home, the
innocent path unwalked, unwanted,
unseen.
Ten thousand steps, a roar like
gunfire, children march by and
by, rolling thunder, rolling
thunder.
The faces we lost in the fire,
our sins piled high in ashes, pure
is want, purity lost, the
faceless come here, the faceless
come home.
Ten thousand steps, a roar like
gunfire, children march by and
by, rolling thunder, rolling thunder.
