Love, Life & Loss
The First Time
I will always remember The moment you walked through the door The very first time I saw you In the flesh… real A memory that will endure Even when the rest all fade away I will hold on to that moment And carry it with me Always

This Is Your Time
Rejuvenate Revitalise Invigorate And energise Clean the slate Start anew Cast off the weight That’s holding you It’s time to make Your chances tell Break free, escape From your cell You hold the key To all the doors So go, be free The chance is yours
Friendship Lost
Another one bites the dust A friendship lost Once strong I thought it would stand The test of time Instead it fades Evanescent Reminiscent Of each and every one I’ve ever had
