Ultra-Violet

Summer summed up in the form of the beach
Sky so colorful I can't help but reach
That moment of peace my mind so clear
Yet filled with images so near and dear
To my heart color red change the rainbow
Blue lighted building where did the rain go
It's a vision of a time that's mine in the sun
A future and a present that I know I'll run
Color of purple like the book and I'll turn the page
Color of green like the money in this golden age
My past my present and my becoming all in my light
So before I see too much and go blind tonight
I close my eyes and let the rays take me in
Knowing I'm forgiven not stirred or shaken
Ultra-violet rays just like this edict says
Ultra-violet rays are the most perfect days

Signatures

Sign on the dotted line sign of the times
Sign of the signs signed in my mind
Cross my I's and dot my T's
Symbolism for me framed on the trees
My Signature of life assigned to the pad
My signature is aligned to the life I had
Sign me up in the ink known as dead red
Sign my life away in the words that I said
Isn't the point to point at the sign in the sky
Signed by you with more tears to cry
I couldn't sign a contract so compact
Knowing I signed it left a feeling abstract
Signed by my heart crossed with my tears
A signature I know would last through the years
So in this a signature is the life line don't pull the cord
Signing what's left over that I know I can't afford

The Road (Part I)

For awhile it was closed couldn't travel this road
Carrying too much baggage too heavy of a load
I guess it was what I could see in my rearview
I never really understood what I was going through
Lost in my ways as I traveled away
Little did I know I'd have nothing to say
Because I remembered it all like it happened again
I had no thoughts and no smiles to send
It hurt me I know it did because I told her in my dreams
The truth about my flaws and marks everything I've seen
Still the road got darker as it was meant to do
In the darkness there's the light of the truth
To be continued as I ride forward in the line of fire
I say damn to myself as I know my heart tires
As the road twists and turns in what was meant to be
To where does this road lead for me
