Victim of Desire

In a dream I was a child safe and sweet
I had no notions yet of love or of defeat
But I awoke to find the dream was but pretend
It was my sleepy way of getting on the mend
I was not pure within the womb, I was less so when I came out
Now 31 years later, of all my sins there is no doubt
But perhaps there is a threshold left to cross
Yes, I am hoping there's a point to all that's lost
I am a victim of desire, never satisfied
I am a victim of genetics from my father's side
I've seen a portion of my dreams become reality
And still a better portion smothered right in front of me
When I was young I'd watch the sun go down in Summer's end
And I knew the day would surely come when I could not pretend

I Believe in Love

I believe in love
It is the bridge which spans across my moat
And I believe in us
You are the truth within everything I wrote
And I believe it's come
The shining light of God of which they speak
And I have now succumbed
Not to the scripture but the mercy of the meek
The years were never kind
The buried filth within our minds
We do as brothers who
Endured it all as our sister knew
I believe in love
I do believe it is the savior of my soul
And I believe in us
You came to light and made me whole
And I believe it's come
A turning tide which has opened up my eyes
And I have not succumbed
To all the bitterness, the jealousy and lies
