New YorkSteve Bendarek couldn't believe his luck. A rudimentary night out in the local bar had taken an unexpected turn when this unbelievably attractive woman had bought him a drink. Her name was Mireya – her features were an appealing mixture of Caucasian and Hispanic. Her naturally brown hair was strewn with blonde highlights as her hazel eyes locked with his. One became two and the conversation between them flowed eas...

The click of the light switch focussed his attention and he bobbed back to the surface of consciousness. Soft, retreating footfalls. A whispered kiss. The baby opened his eyes. A gentle glow illuminated the room to his left and his gaze, seeking comfort, was naturally drawn there. He was warm, full, content, sleepy, and yet still expected something more.

Another friend left town today,Left this world quietly with nothin' to say.Don't matter whether it was a shot in the arm or a shot in the head,The only thing matters is another friend's dead.Hook:Another friend left town today,Another friend with nothin' to say.So many words that will never get said,Just another friend that ended up dead.Time goes on and I examine my soul,I take a close look inside and count the holes.The...

Beautiful White Horse by HoneyBee000Oh beautiful, beautiful white horse running free, the morning frost melting underneath your hooves. I call your name and I watch you plod heavily diagonally through the sodden mud towards me, steam expelling through your nostrils.I wait patiently at the gate and you nod and whinny as you come to greet me!I give you tokens of orange carrots and juicy apples; in exchange for a gentle care...

I see a girl with long blond hair,So much like yours I stop and stare,With a quizzical look she walks away,I just stand there with nothing to say,So many girls remind me of you,How they move, the things they do.I watch the sun set in the sky,Reminding me of times gone by,How we sat on the beach hand in hand,Us two lovers sitting on the sand,So many things remind me of you,Of days gone by, when we were two.I miss you more...

You know that I must leave you,The end is surely near,We both knew this day would come,Please don't shed a tear.Life is but a journey,Beginning with our birth,I'd like to think it continues on,After we leave this earth.But I do have one big fear,And it's not of the unknown,But rather that my leaving here,May find you left alone.So, until we meet again someday,I hope that you may find,Someone who will share your life,Someo...

Pain. It seems all my life I’ve dealt with one kind or another. Part of me wants to shut the louder half of me in a little box, somewhere…anywhere, until it's bursting at the seams. Maybe I hope it will kill itself off, polluting its own environment with its own filth, just like part of me always has. The other parts want to ignore it, try to stop it and beat it down, keep it down and destroy that one part, that deceitful...

I wait patiently for dawn,When splashes of colourful light Will take away the darknessThat you leftThe day you diedI wait patiently for nighttimeWhen the daytime that torments meAnd reminds me so of youWill go and give me peaceI wait patiently for the hurt I feelOver the loss of youTo fade away silently And take the pain from meAnd I am still waiting
