Waiting for dawn

She's waiting for dawn when the dewdrops will sit, on every blade of grass and the sky will be lit.... 
with just enough light, to see but not be seen, as she disappears softly just like a wakened dream.

She clutches her bag, her hands start to shake, as the panic grows her will starts to break.
A few more minutes more, another cup of tea and she'll leave this sad life and finally be free.

My blood on your hands.
too many times, too many times, you have broken me down.
Tears on my face, as you creep nearer, your breath loaded as I make no sound.

She stands at the door breathing in the fresh air, She knows deep down its the last chance if she dares. 
No more telling lies, no more scared for her life, no more breaks and bruises. 
No more being his wife.

My blood on your hands
too many times, too many times, you have broken me down.
Tears on my face, as I run faster, my heart thumping as I leave this place.

( original song I wrote based on a woman trying to escape her abusive husband. I started writing this with this visual in my mind but also used my own experiences of a past abusive relationship and the feeling of being frozen/trapped based on abuse I experienced as a child)

Benjamin Dantès - Vu du ciel

Clouds

A folk ballad with reminiscent sounds of the 60s.

Lean On Me

nostalgy

For years  i go to the sea at a very desolate place where the endless view, sound of waves , birds and the wind, invite to reflect about life...

This song I wrote in 2009 and it's based on a Bo Diddley kind of rhythm, popular in the 1950's - so I live in Kentucky and the University of Kentucky has a college basketball team called Kentucky Wildcats, I'm sure you've heard of them. So one day while watching a game, this tune came to me, this is the instrumental, I had lyrics as well but they were lame so I tossed them. I also created a video for this song and it will be on Youtube soon, just a bunch of cats pussy-footing' around!

I wrote a song for dogs a while back called "Suite: Dog Years" but this one is for cat lovers everywhere. Give it a listen, it's Puuuuurrrfect and it's the cat's meow!

Cosmic Alien Sex

Why am I here?
Hwī eom ic hēr?
Cur sum hic?
Διατί εῐμῐ ἐνταῦθα;
Why am I heere?

Who am I?
Hwā eom ic?
Quis sum ego?
Τίς εῐμι ἐγῳ;
Who am I?

And where do I go?
And hwǣær scyle ic gangan?
Et quo vado?
Καὶ ποῖ βαίνω;
And wher shall I go?

Thank you all who take the time to listen to my music, I really appreciate every comment, like and reposts 💜 I've discovered so much amazing music on soundcloud and so many talented and lovely people too. 
I've been writing songs on and off for over 20 years, I write mostly about life experiences and anything that I'm passionate about or situations that I've been in but sometimes imaginary too.. Music means so much to me and I'm really enjoying recording more in this strange lockdown year...
I like how Rumi says it.... 
'You are not just a drop in the ocean, you are the whole ocean in one drop'
