When I'm Not Reading (2)





When I'm Not Reading is a weekly meme hosted by The Unread Reader. Allows us bloggers to share what we're are doing when not consuming ourselves with our books.

This week I thought I'd share my songwriting ability. I've been writing songs since 2001. I've roughly have written over 500 songs since then. I only write the lyrics, sadly I don't know how to put it to actual music. For me writing these songs are my way of getting things off my chest or just speaking on subjects I wouldn't say to someone.

But here are a few songs I've written enjoy!!

Dear My Love

Dear My Love
I'm letting go
Of everything
I've felt for you

Going to find
Someone I can have
Not dream about you anymore
You'll never be mine

Dear My Love
I'm letting go
Of everything
I've felt for you

I realized
You're not the one
What I felt was admiration (not love)
I will shed a tear for all my time wasted on you

Dear My Love
I'm letting go
Of everything
I've felt for you

Even though you
Never knew of my love
Kept hidden in my eyes
Its time to let it die

Going to find
Someone I can have
Not dream of you anymore
You'll never be mine

I'll just say this
She best hold on tight to you
Cause you deserve the best
No heartache

I will shed a tear
For all my time wasted on you
Dear My Love
I'm letting go of you and me!

Death In Front Of My Eyes

Here it is again
Death in front of my eyes
But this time
My heart isn't aching

Why is that?
After all you're apart of me
Yet  Ican't seem to cry
Feel so guilty for this

But years have gone by
Since the last time I saw you
So am I to grieve your loss?
Somebody come help me out

Here it is again
Death in front of my eyes
Yet this time
My heart isn't aching

How am I to feel?
Never was close to you
And I just feel so numb
Somebody please help me

There should be years
All I feel is confusion
Nor sure where to turn need someone

Here it is again
Death in front of my eyes
All my heart can feel is numbness

I'm so sorry
That I can't grieve for you
Pleae forgive me

No Longer Will I (Gizmo)

I miss you dear friend
You were always here to comfort me
In sadness,happiness, and in anger
Now I have to say goodbye

Not sure I'm strong enough
To endure the loss of you
For seeing your sweet face
Always made my days better

No Longer Will I
Have you greeting me at the door
No Longer Will I
Have you laying on my bed
No Longer Will I
Hear you purr

My baby
I loved you with all of my heart and soul
I pray that you are no longer in pain
Know this you will always have a place in our hearts

Not sure I'm strong enough
To endure the loss of you
For seeing you're sweet face
Always made my days better

No Longer Will I
Have you greeting me at the door
No Longer Will I
Have you laying on my bed
No Longer Will I
Hear you purr

I miss you dear friend
I'm so glad to have had you in my life
Go on now move on to a better place
Where you wont be in pain anymore

Gizmo,
my hunny bunny
You'll always be in my heart and soul.

*Note this song is about my beloved cat Gizmo, whom I lost in January of this year.*
