Snow Flower

Do you remember that winter night?

Snow was falling by our window seat.
We sat with heads rested, feet curled,
as you strummed me a gentle song. 

You said, “I want tonight to last forever.”
And for morning to never arrive.
We knew this moment wouldn’t come again.
For we must return to our own lives. 

Like a flower blooming in the snow,
this was a fleeting moment shared with you.
A fragmented memory of a long ago winter.
Like a flower blooming in the snow,
this memory wilted away in the spring.
With only the faint scent of you remaining.

Do you remember that winter night?
We watched the fire crackle,
as we drank champagne by your window.
It was my first night, sleeping by a stranger. 

I said, “I won’t let you become a memory.”
Our fingers linked together, promised.
But handwritten letters and postcards,
faded away your smile. 

Like a flower blooming in the snow,
this was a fleeting moment shared with you.
A fragmented memory of a long ago winter.
Like a flower blooming in the snow,
this memory wilted away in the spring.
With only the faint scent of you remaining.

Love Song for a Distant Star

Today, I'll write a song meant only for you.
But has a melody you won't be able to hear.
Because to you, I have yet to exist.
To me, you are a distant star that I cannot grasp.
I can only hope that my voice reaches you.

Listen well; I'll only say this once.
This is a love song for a distant star,
who sings from a far away horizon.
Every day, I'm dreaming of you.
I'm always calling for your name.
Listen, please listen carefully.
Can't you hear my quivering words?
Distant star, don't stay ignorant forever.
Hurry up and realise that I love you.

Yesterday, I heard your guitar strumming quietly.
I fell in love with the sorrow singing inside your heart.
I want to be the arms that comfort you to sleep.
But you were so far away, a distant glowing star.
Falling, please fall into my welcoming arms.

And Listen well; I'll only say this once.
This is a love song for a distant star,
who sings from a far away horizon.
Every day, I'm dreaming of you.
I'm always calling for your name.
Listen, please listen carefully.
Can't you hear my quivering words?
Distant star, don't stay ignorant forever.
Hurry up and realise that I love you.

Tomorrow, we'll shine together on that stage.
Hands held tightly, you are my only muse.
I won't ever let you stand alone again.
Our voices will soar together through the night.
We'll cast a spell over the crowds.

So, listen well; I'll only say this once.
This is a love song for a distant star,
who sings from a far away horizon.
Every day, I'm dreaming of you.
I'm always calling for your name.
Listen, please listen carefully.
Can't you hear my quivering words?
Distant star, don't stay ignorant forever.
Hurry up and realise that I love you.
Distant star, don't stay ignorant forever.
Hurry, hurry up and finally realise.
That I love you.    

                                                                                               

 Note: I wrote this with the intention of it becoming a song however, I sadly lack musical knowledge so it will remain as only lyrics. If anyone knows song writing, could you please use these lyrics to write a song? (Lyrics inspired by previous post)

Dear Unknowing (song lyrics)

 So I'm giving song writing a go. It's something I've been meaning to do for a while but today I finally sat down and spent all day on this. My friend Greg will be helping me with the composition of the music and hopefully it will go well which means I'll eventually post the whole song up. ^^ Wish me luck !!
So here are the lyrics. I look forward to any suggestions ^^

-------------------

Dear Unknowing

Someday, I’ll find you
That one needle in the hay stack
Don’t tell me that I can’t because
You’ll lose, I’m a romantic
Please don’t say it’s a lost cause
Its everything I’m living for

Dear Unknowing
Why do you walk around with a blindfold?
Don’t you think you’ve missed so much?
I want it all to become undone
Until all you’ll eventually see is me

Dear Unknowing, love me

If I send love letters flying on dandelions
Will they eventually reach you?
Don’t say that a storm is coming because
All I see are clear skies
Please don’t say you didn’t receive them
I wrote one every day

Dear Unknowing
Why do you walk around with a blindfold?
Don’t you think you’ve missed so much?
I want it all to become undone
Until all you’ll eventually see is me
Dear Unknowing, love me

One day, you’ll find me
That one you’ve neglected all along
Now you’re finally opened eyed
But I wonder if it’s way too late?
I no longer follow your petty steps
You’re not everything I’m looking for

Dear Unknowing
Why do you walk around with a blindfold?
Don’t you think you’ve missed so much?
I want it all to become undone
Until all you’ll eventually see is me
Dear Unknowing, love me
Dear Unknowing, love me
But I wonder if it’s way too late?
