and i know that i'll love you...

it feels like i know you
in some mystic way
and if i could just show you
you'd see right away

from somewhere inside me
your face came to view
it was almost as real
as a face that i knew

and i know that i'll love you
with a love more than love
with a daring desire
as the sun's fire above

with eyes shining, burning
you met my still gaze
and my heart knew your heart
leaving me in a daze

though dreaming, you found me
and hope was infused
for the day when i wake up
and get to hold you

and i know that you'll love me
with a love more than life
and a tangible one-ness
as the rain in the skies

i'll give all my heart
and hope it's enough
but i know that i'll love you
with a love more than love

eraser

i wish i could tape over the words inside my head
that one little line that you never should have said
i'd fill the void with music, with something loud instead
or maybe something quiet, or a story that i've read

go; just go away now please
and take your lies with you
before i hear another word
and rethink all this through

i wish i had some white-out that could make you go away
at least the way you smiled when you saw me look your way
i did my hair all pretty, and you made me wait all day
and i don't think it's fair that i have to act okay

go; just go away now please
and take your silly games
get your name out of my head
and all the happy things you said
that made me like you till today
please won't you go away
just go; i'll be okay
