I hear from people that my words inspire
That my songs touch hearts, set souls on fire
Many see themselves in every line I write
In every rhyme, they find their light
I speak of love, I speak of pain
Of battles fought, and strength regained
I don’t confine myself to just one theme
I want my words to travel, to live, to dream
But all of this is just a mask I wear
For love’s a game I’ve failed to share
Ten steps from paradise, I'm pulled back again
Back to the start, where heartache begins
When I get close to love, my wings give way
They see someone I'm not, and love slips away
A reverse spell breaks the fairy tale I’ve spun
Leaving me lost, undone, under the Sun
Who will catch me if I fall?
Who will teach me how to fly at all?
Is there a path to paradise above?
Until that day, I’ll share my words of love
But all of this is just a mask I wear
For love’s a game I’ve failed to share
Ten steps from paradise, I'm pulled back again
Back to the start, where heartache begins
Who will break my fall if I fall?
Will someone teach me to fly through it all?
Is there a way to reach that place?
To feel the warmth of love’s embrace?
Until that day, until it’s real
I’ll light the path with words I feel
Sharing my best, my heart, my art
A poet’s love, a healer’s heart
