 GRACE by Kate Havnevik
 

GRACE::

I'm on my knees
only memories
are left for me to hold

Don't know how
but I'll get by
Slowly pull myself together

There's no escape
So keep me safe
This feels so unreal

Nothing comes easily
Fill this empty space
Nothing is like it seems
Turn my grief to grace

I feel the cold
Loneliness unfold
Like from another world

Come what may
I won't fade away
But I know I might change

Nothing comes easily
Fill this empty space
Nothing is like it was
Turn my grief to grace

Nothing comes easily
Where do I begin?
Nothing can bring me peace
I've lost everything
I just want to feel your embrace

I love you..
I love you..
I love you.
I love you.
I love you...

 Walking Away
 


You used to be there when I looked
I heard the laugh in your voice
Holding you tight and feeling safe
Being there was our choice

The temperature suddenly changed
Your arms remained crossed
I saw the doors close before me
Somewhere we were lost

The reasons have never been clear
You passed judgment so fast
Cuz you never really loved me
It was never meant to last

The wounds are covered with scars
Yet, they have never healed
I heard the laugh in your voice
Behind my armored shield

 Illusive Love
 


The darkness is so very thick
And even though it renders me blind
There’s a movement of the air
I can feel you approach from behind

You barely brush my shoulder
With your breath and a kiss from you lips
My body lets out a shudder
As you brush my hair with your fingertips

There is an agonizing ache
That rises up from deep inside my core
From the distance between
Making me long for you like never before

Catching my breath in gasps
Reaching out in the dark to find you
The sound of you in my head
Because the illusion feels so very true

 The Countryside
 

All the open spaces
Trees, tall grass, wild flowers
Wind caresses these places
And I could stare for hours

It fills the trip
With such enormous peace
I keep my grip
And a smile that doesn't cease

I would stay here
Listening to the birds and bugs
It holds no fear
And delivers nature's hugs

 Husband's Serenade
 

Okay--I didn't write this but my husband serenaded me with it on our trip back home Tuesday night. He sings this to me a lot. And it melts me everytime.

Everything I Own--by David Gates and Bread

You sheltered me from harm.
Kept me warm, kept me warm
You gave my life to me
Set me free, Set me free
The finest years I ever knew
were all the years I had with you

I would give anything I own,
Give up me life, my heart, my home.
I would give everything I own,
just to have you back again.

You taught me how to love,
What its of, what its of.
You never said too much,
but still you showed the way,
and I knew from watching you.
Nobody else could ever know
the part of me that can't let go.

I would give anything I own,
Give up me life, my heart, my home.
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again.

Is there someone you know,
you're loving them so,
but taking them all for granted.
You may lose them one day,
someone takes them away,
and they don't hear the words you long to say

I would give anything I own,
Give up me life, my heart, my home.
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again.
