You came to me, wanting us to be.
I was your calm in the midst of a raging sea.
Days of sadness, nights of sorrow
I pray to the Goddess that I’d find you tomorrow
Prevented by my family from seeing you again
Sometimes I wish that they could feel my pain.
The softness of your lips pressing against mine
Knowing that our hearts will always be intertwined
You had told me that I was forgiven
Even though there wasn’t any sin
Tortured Is my soul since I saw you last
My brothers told me to leave it in the past
They broke us apart, wanting for me a new start
Thus creating the darkness in my heart
I’ll find you again…eventually
Or I fear it’ll be the end of me

The Outcast
Days gone by, Memories fade away,
It’s been like that since I was led astray.
The one whole path, I’ll never walk again.
Because of this sin, I’ll never be forgiven.
Such is the life of an outcast,
Wanting each day to be the last,
Will his sun burn nevermore?
Will this life be a time so sore?
A time to give, a time to lie
A time to live, a time to die
Nameless faces and faceless names
Life itself is not the same.
DLP II
The Betrayal
The darkness you laid in front of me
Like the gloom on the nighttime sea
You were the dusk to my Cliffside view
When we’re in the dark just us two
Then you betrayed me
Turned me against my family
You say you wanted us to be
Now I see it wasn’t really me
It was my life you needed
You would have gotten it if your plan had succeeded
Family was there from the very start
Even though I gave you my heart
They arrived to give us their blessings
Then you thought I was second guessing
Our love may be at an end
Out of everything I’ve been through I was my only friend
Daniel-
Who are you, Phantom Girl?
Staring at me through a dreamlike swirl
It drives me crazy just needing to know
Who you are, you need to show
The Question that flows throughout my mind
Your eyes haunt me all the time.
You are the embodiment of beauty
But why did you choose me
Somehow I feel I know you
Could that be true?
Could you be the one who graces my dreams?
At one point were you with me?
Daniel Lee Perdue II
This isn’t the world it used to be,
When the sun shone, and you were with me.
Our lives were great, our lives were grand,
Until our love came to an end.
All of our unbridled bliss,
Rode itself into the abyss
There’s time to cry, there’s time to weep
Until we fall into eternal sleep.
Without love to bind us
Death is precious
Because for now we’ll be
Together for Eternity
Daniel Perdue
