Southern Lights
The lights you seek are not these ones, these are mine
I shall explain more in time
As I have searched far and wide
Yet these are the most beaufitul I find
Unique, like tears in the snow
I share these lights with the Emporer, Leopard and Crabeater
With an hour of sunlight, there's nothing more sweeter
Than to sit and watch the carnival of light above
On my own, as the ...

Loner Bird
I saw you my friend
Looking toward the sky
I thought you knew you, my friend
Things aren't supposed to die
Loner Bird
Why did you have to die?
Londer Bird
Why did you have to lie?
I saw you again
Sitting upon the edge
Of the same window cill
As the past thousand times
Loner Bird
Why did you have to die?

Why did you have to lie...

With an ending some had thought
If only you could see things

The Privileged walk
Scuffing leaves on the ground
With no other soul anywhere around
Hands in my pocket, keeping warm
My feelings swell to an indignant storm
Life at home isn't quite right
The yelling and shouting gives me a fright
"Best apart" says my instinct
But it's not like me to kick up a stink
Night times leave me cold, fearful and small
Ear to the glass, glass to the floor

Dislocated
Location unknown
No flesh or meat on the bone
Bereft of all comforting thought
This isn't what I was taught
I once knew a place
Where I knew every face
Now cold and dark
No warmth and no spark
I travel around in the void
Wondering round like a lost boy
And although I am able
Fully trained yet maimed and unstable
A ghostly belonging
Of betrayal ...
