A New Start

Since re-entering my life
You have been in my thoughts
The way you smile
And the way you laugh
It's the way you are

I feel I'm falling for you
Little by little
One smile at a time
Each moment I see you

Could this be a start
Of feelings beyond friendship
A new start for us both?

Kinda inspired while listening to Songs For A Season. Wrote the middle portion on the train at the beginning of one of the tracks and it only hit me that what I was writing coincided with the song title when the chorus started to play.

The Empty Spaces

Blank pages, dates to fill
The empty spaces
Beckoning a pen's waver

Calls to make, and things to do
Life hardly stands still
The path ahead, only God knows
So walk with me
And help me fill

Get Well

Get well soon
Back on your feet again
Lifting up your eyes
I want to see their smile
Brighten up the room

Get well soon
For the day's coming
When I would meet you
At the tables once more
Lunch and an hour
Waiting for you to come

Waiting

Waiting for you here
Like I've always done
Seated on a bench
Willing the minutes to pass
Bit by bit
Inching to the time
I can see your face again
See your lovely smile
And that sparkle in your eyes

The Bits Of Music

Bits and pieces
Words joined together
Living for the title
Weaving with the music
Harmonious in its ways
And commanding with its presence

Empty Seat

Beautiful music
Month after month
Same old spot
Where you'll find me this day
Echos through the hall
Of aid and mercy and love
Wish you were here with me
Sharing the moments

Relief

Why should I suffer
The fates to be
Greed and pride
The fallings of others
Why should I suffer
The broken hearts and homes
People killing each other
The innocents dying
Why must this be
Why must this go on
That innocents suffer
Day after day...

Inspired after Jon put up a Mercy Relief booth at OOOM 6 for those suffering in the civil war raging now in Sri Lanka. Tried to employ verstehen and this came out.
