~ Mama Knew ~
by: O'Puppy
A child will never understand
The love inside a mothers hand
Until the day when it's too late
And she has left for heavens gates
I know because I'm sitting here
Without the one that I loved dear
The years that I let slip away
Are years I wished I had today
When I was young it bothered me
To have all that security
I never was allowed to roam
Far from my simple childhood home
At times I thought I knew it all
But she was there to catch my fall
And as her life came to an end
I knew that she was my best friend
Inside my heart there is a place
Where mom and I can still embrace
I never showed her .. love this true
But somehow I think .. Mama knew

Windows Of My Dreams
by: O' Puppy
There comes a time inside of me
When everything is out of sync
The world just spins too fast you see
And I just have to hide and think
I take a breath and close my eyes
To get away somehow it seems
It's then I feel my body rise
Through open windows of my dreams
A special place made just for me
This sanctuary of my mind
Where I escape reality
In search of what I always find
Someone to gently take my hand
In silence near the oceans rifts
Beneath a moon, against white sand
We lay exchanging lovers gifts
While stars dance free across a wave
Till morning sends its distant beams
And I must leave the love I gave
Outside the windows of my dreams.
