The Man of Tin

I tell a story of a man, whose life was made of tin,
Now today he gives it all, a heart from deep within.
To feel the pain of life you see, I know is hard to swallow.
He gives it all; he knows within, his soul is sure to follow.

The dreams he has, are blurred today, they are from afar,
He sees a smile from far away, like looking through a jar.
To see his life, the smile, and all that he holds dear,
Will take a soul that feels, and know that he is near.

I have them now, many times and even in my youth,
The dreams I do speak of, they are of the truth.
I feel these emotions; they are like a hole,
They come from deep inside me, of very my soul.

Many years of time have gone, since they left, so fast.
I seek a friend to help me now, to let these feelings last.
She will stand strong beside me, and no she will not flee,
To this man, a gentle soul, to walk just you and me.

I know of what I must do, to find this Lady dear.
I keep these feelings open, knowing she is near.
For those of you who shy away, from feelings I hold dear,
Take a step; walk away, because I have no fear.

You see the past of my soul; have scars upon its chest,
The feelings held deep inside, are greater than the rest.
The knife I felt years ago, it cut me deep inside,
Emotions felt, held within, can now be opened wide.

A heart that broke, when just a teen, was not a basket case,
He hid the dreams, a life of love; he thought it just a waste.
Today the time to find that love, is just a dream away,
So please my friends, give me strength, to find my love this way.

I ask you now, the tale clear, to help me in my search,
The life I hold, the smile I seek, could lead me to a church.
So today, look deep inside, to all that you hold dear,
Is it true, to feel inside, knowing he is near?

A bard of old, tells his tale, of life and bitter truth,
If only then forgotten dreams, when we was just a youth.
To seek today, the love of old, from only in a dream,
I walk the lands telling a tale, to strangers it would seem.


Those I tell the tale, of the life,That I have today,
The dream of joy and peace, a smile I wish to stay.
To keep a trust, of one like me, is to the bitter end,
I gave it all, to let me be, to find a better friend.

You have heard my story, now that you do know,
Will you be my friend, or will you all say go?
I am just a simple man, with simple needs and desires,
I search the land to find her, to set our souls afire.

very fitting....I stopped dreaming...dont even know if i can....dont
remember why i stopped...dont know if i want to....dont remember why i
want to dream again...dont know if i will.

Txs the only person that can hurt me won't. Others may try yet they will
never succed, My strength is what others feel as weakness. My biggest
fear ever seems to be disappearing. My dreams never end they only
continue on one way or another.

very pretty gryph and your right the only one that can hurt you never
will she loves you so much that in hurting you she would hurt herself
beyond repair, you know what the say about self survival,



Escaped yes you do want to or you wouldn't have the question to begin
with.You will someday

Living in my dreams
dreaming by day
when I look into your eyes
I can read what they really say
Freinds come and go
but love is here to stay
no more lies
no more guile
I know we are fragile
but, let go and we can fly
over the edge, above the sea
we can soar wherever we want to be
Hearts open wide
wishing you could confide
all your secrets in my ear
and then I'll let you in
friends and lovers
mates for life
souls intertwine once upon a time
sweet words I hear
like honey they drip from your lips
sound so familiar
although we've never met
do you know
do you believe
can this be love,
truly
In another life
did we walk together
once upon a time???

very nice tags for an excellent man!
thank You for being a man of tin,
and letting us give to you our hearts within,
and thank You for being another FRIEND!!!
