What is there in the darkness?

No footsteps on the ground.
No bright eyes peering out from behind a tree.
No lights in the distance.

What is there in the darkness?

No rustling of leaves as the
non-existent breeze sweeps by.
Not a breath. Not even my own.
No bats or cats are heard.
No, not even a bird.

What is this darkness that
takes away all things?

The stillness of this world frightens me.

This must be Oblivion, for Hell,
at least is harsh and fiery.
This is only dark, still and silent.
Not even my heart has a whisper here.

As I saw her laying there,
I began to weep.

Tears were flooding my face
For a reason I could not explain.

The darkness engulfed me
And I saw not but her beautiful face.

Then she smiled.

A smile so glamorous
That it drove the darkness away.

Then she was gone.

She disappeared into the light
And was seen no more.

And in that instant,
I knew I witnessed a miracle:
The true power of love.

A fractured heart,
so dormant and empty.
Balance was lost
as the strands that
once held this heart together
started reaching outward.
They stretched till they
pulled my heart apart.

You know the feeling
When everything's going your way?
I can describe that in just four words:
Hell froze over today!

Remember when I was just a boy
And I wanted to go to Disneyland?
Well, today's the day, cause
Hell froze over today!

Remember when I was in school
And I couldn't stop getting into trouble?
I'm a perfect angel now, cause
Hell froze over today!

Remember when I got married
And you said she'd never stay with me?
Well, guess what...
Hell froze over today!

If I was granted one wish,
I think I'd be a star.
I'd prove to everyone that
Hell froze over today!

When we're old and gray, we'll laugh
At all the stupid things we're gonna do today.
It's time for us to own the road since
Hell froze over today!

There she goes again, smiling brightly
With a twinkle in her eye.
She doesn't notice me,
So she walks on by.

She loves to text,
But not to talk.
There she goes again,
Showing off that walk.

She'll remain distant
Until she needs her Dew.
She looks at me with
Her eyes, the deepest blue.

I've seen the full moon
And the stars shine,
But never have I seen
Beauty so divine.

She went to the door
And waved goodbye.
I knew right then
She could never be mine.

Her beauty is as
Rare as a pearl.
But, after all,
She is just a girl.

Time to go now, but not for good.
Sleep is calling and so is food.
Needing to clean, I run abound
Till I find you on the ground.

Now, wanting things I should not want,
And feeling things which I should not feel.
My heart beating like a ballistic drum,
I help you up just to feel.

To feel such beauty,
It would fill me with glee.
And by your leave,
My hands will roam free.

Now I know the things I feel
Will bring happiness and love anew.
Temptation is explicit,
Yet, it is nothing without you.

Of fog! Oh fog!
What do I see?
Nothing! Nothing!
I can't even see me!

Oh fog! Oh fog!
Why are you so mean?
Go away! Go away!
Just let me be me.

Oh fog! Oh fog!
What can I say?
You've painted this morning
A thick shade of grey.

Oh fog! Oh fog!
What can I do?
I'm goin on home,
But I'll walk with you.
