Behind Your Garden Wall
© Eric Daum 2023
There are words that I can’t say
Though I’ve written them down
And there are letters I can’t send
That say nothing profound
There are days that I’m dreading
That I won’t see your at all
The path that I’m treading
Will be my downfall
What’s behind your garden wall
Overgrown
Hidden in your garden
A complete unknown
There’s a sense that I can’t shake
Not one to reveal
How this feeling of heartbreak
Has overcome me
The doubts that come each night
As dreams tend to do
Demons will take flight
All I dream of is you
What’s behind your garden wall
Overgrown
Hidden in your garden
A complete unknown

Calliope
© Eric Daum, 2024
I spotted at you
You looked at me
I spoke to you
You joked with me
I thought of you
Did you think of me
I wrote to you
Did you reply to me?
I cherished you
You cheapened me
I took care of you
Did you care for me?
I looked after you
You looked past me
I’d wait for you
Could you catch up to me?
There’s a house that she lives in
In a town by the sea
Writing letters in her garden
Calliope
I spoke up for you
Did you speak to me
When I dreamed of you
Did you dream of me?
I’d live for you
Could you live with me?
I’d die for you
Would you remember me?
There’s a house that she lives in
In a town by the sea
Writing letters in her garden
My Calliope

The Archetype
©Eric Daum 2024
The scorpion’s soul personified The room vibrates as she glides by
Mystified self-assured unconcerned by all she’s heard
Wistfully delicate, my longing incarnate
The archetypal she, remains a paradox to me
I’ve been waiting my whole life just to find her
I’ve been waiting my whole life, just to hold her
A brief embrace so out of place
The memory reverberates, yet I hesitate
The unasked question, my soul obsession
The archetypal she the paradigm for me
I’ve been waiting my whole life just to find her
I’ve been waiting my whole life, just to hold her
Desire Manifest, that’s the pain that I know best
Mysterious soul The undeciphered code
The ruby lips that I’ve never kissed
The archetypal she, moves parallel to me
I’ve been waiting my whole life just to find her
I’ve been waiting my whole life, just to hold her
I’ve been waiting my whole life just to find her
I’ve been waiting my whole life, just to hold her

Syrener

Sitting in your dark yard
Just off the street street
The scene in which you starred
I can’t compete
There’s nothing I can say
Nowhere to hide
If I told you what I thought
You’d swear I’d lied
Hands in the dirt
Head in the clouds
It shouldn’t hurt
But I’m not that proud
The lilacs scent
The sirens' sway
Not sure what you meant
You drift away

December
Eric Daum © 2023
I’ve been waiting for so long
I read the signs but I got the message wrong
And I’ve been thinking, about us too
I read the signs but l fell in love with you
I remember when we met
How could you think I ever would forget
You’ve been changing, on your own
You’re Independent, you're not alone
It’s December, but let me say
I still remember the sudden rush of May
It was a thrill when we met
Even though nothing's happened yet
I’m still waiting for you to see
I’ve not much to give, there’s only me
When you consider, how the odds are stacked
I thought I had your monkey off my back
Can’t say that I blame you
I thought I loved the same you
I remember when we met
How could you think I ever would forget

The Time of our Lives
© Eric Daum 2024
This could be the time the time of our Lives
The infinite love the love of our Lives
Written in time, the stars will decide
There’s nothing to show if we haven’t tried
Parallel world, you would be mine
In Parallel states we’re entwined
I feel like we met a long time ago
Parallel lives with nothing to show
A cosmic journey to this place and time
Generations lost and now we find
Our lives spent just moments apart
Moments or miles, where do we start?
All the colors and the lights
All the silence and liquid nights
This could be the time the time of our lives
This could be the love the love of our Lives

Has it Ever Crossed Your Mind?
© Eric Daum 2024
Another Place
Another Time
Another World
Could you Be Mine?
Another day
You might find
Has it ever
Crossed your mind?
Another dream
Left Behind
Another life
Misaligned
Another chance
If you’re inclined
Has it ever
Crossed your mind?

It’s Absurd To Think
©Eric Daum, 2024
It’s absurd to think that time is out of synch with you and me
And it’s bizarre to think that I had risked my sanity
The future’s not so clear, you’re drawing near dispassionate
It’s all inside my head, I hope for you instead, I’m desperate
It’s naive to hope, under the microscope that we would last
I can’t believe, or that you’d perceive , our chance has passed
That life is far away, you’d never stay to see this through
So many years I dreamed and it never seemed that I’d find you
Is it absurd to think that I was on the brink of something new
And it’s bizarre to think that I would draw the link from me to you
Some guiding hand, ancestor’s distant lands led me to you
Just you and me, misplaced destiny, this must be true
Just one kiss
Just one kiss
Just one kiss
