All Cried Out
Outside I see the rain is falling
Inside I'm slowly dying
But the rain will hide my crying, crying, crying
And you, don't you know my tears will burn the pillow
Set this place on fire 'cause I'm tired of your lie
All I needed was a simple, "Hello"
But the traffic was so noisy that you could not hear me cry
I, I gave you my love in vain
My body never knew such pleasure
My heart never knew such pain
And you, you leave me so confused
Now I'm all cried out, over you
Ooh, crying over you, over you, yeah
Never wanted to see things your way
Had to go astray for why was I such a fool
Now I see that the grass is greener
Is it too late for me to find my way home
How could I be so wrong, yeah?
Leaving me all alone
Don't you know my tears will 'cause an inferno
Romance of these flames, why should I take the blame?
You were the one who left me neglected, apology not accepted
At me to the broken hearts you've collected
I gave you all of me
How was I to know, you would weaken so easily
I, I don't know what to do
Now I'm all cried out over you
I gave you my love in vain
My body never knew such pleasure
My heart never knew such pain
And you, you left me so confused
Now I'm all cried out
Now I'm all cried out, over you
Please forgive me
Please forgive me, oh
Please forgive me

Runaway
So easy to forget our love, the little things we do.
Like callin' for no reason, just to say the words, "Baby, I love you."
I know lately I've been busy, but a second doesn't go by without chu crossin' my mind.
It's been so long since we had time, let's take a day and make everything alright.
Just take my hand, fall in love with me again.
Let's runaway to the place where love first found us.
Let's runaway for the day, don't need anyone around us.
When everything in love gets so complicated, it only takes a day to change it.
What I have to say can't wait, all I need is a day,
So let's runaway.
Let's runaway, just for the day.
Runaway
Runaway
Girl, you've been so patient, spendin' nights alone and not complainin'
But I'll make it up to you and I promise today I won't keep you waitin'.
Please give me this one chance to remind you of everything we have.
I won't give up, I'm too much in love, and I want you to know that.
Just take my hand, fall in love with me again.
Let's runaway to the place where love first found us.
Let's runaway for the day, don't need anyone around us.
When everything in love gets so complicated, it only takes a day to change it.
What I have to say can't wait, all I need is a day.
So let's runaway for the day,
And I'll give everything in this moment.
And I promise to make everyday just like the day[or today?]
Let's runaway to the place where love first found us.
Let's runaway for the day, don't need anyone around us.
When everything in love gets so complicated, it only takes a day to change it.
What I have to say can't wait, all I need is a day,
So let's runaway.

"Pain Of Judgment"
the worst I ever felt.
The loss of just one soul,
my heart would quickly melt.
A pain I tried to hide,
and hope no one would see.
A pain that robbed my joy,
a pain that stole my glee.
A pain that hurt me badly,
like nothing had before.
A pain with sorrow heart,
it hurt me to the core.
A pain so deeply felt,
a pain I can't describe.
A pain I'll always remember,
a pain I had inside.
A pain that came with judgment,
a pain I knew so well.
A pain I had to bear,
when sentencing to hell.
A pain that's right and lawful,
that justice would require.
A pain to see their face,
when cast into the fire.
A pain that followed verdict,
a pain of greatly cost.
A pain that came each time,
I knew a soul was lost.

Love Remembrance
Holding your Love in my finger tips
I breathe in the cool, crisp air and I feel content
For I know that you will always adore me despite our differences
The frozen silence swirling around me brings peace to my heart
And lulls me deeper into complacency
I drift into a drowsy half-sleep and
Fragmented images of you begin passing through my mind
A timeless trance
A brush of shadows moving across my face
Patterns of your discontent dance in the wind-teased winter leaves around my feet
And a vague unease begins to scratch at the velvet overlay of delusion I shroud myself in
As I sleep
Your soul became a growing tsunami fighting against my neglect for your needs
Anger so all-encompassing it has no focus
Over endless white snow through endless white fog
Your ghost runs beside me along with memories of the times I came to my garden to forget
The times we spent in endless strife
We stare at each other through our spirit-eyes
The dead silence between us running deep
We move in our own separate solitudes, turning in on ourselves in a grim struggle to maintain our sanity
Becoming so far removed from each other
I cannot understand what you desperately need from me
Disturbed deeply by these visions
I stumble
Lost in this chaotic whirl
My illusion that you could never leave me turns cold
And forever winter nights run across my soul
Grief, rage and accusations flow out of me, until my tears calm into quiet acceptance
At last I awake and chide my empty fingers
For your love is truly gone from my hands
And now love remembrance is all I have left.
--M.D Burke
Grays & Tears
I am the light and illusion flickering around you
Fading into an indistinct existence
This was once my place
Do you still feel my love?
A mélange of passions shaded in grays and tears
Diminishing into an undefined splatter of reality
I reach out across the astral plane
Take a leap of faith!
I am here for you again
My soul manifests
As a pronounced fascination of sentiments
Dimension and time converging around us
I'm right here
You just have to believe
Wreathed in an elegant nimbus of remembrance
My soul arches in a graceful ascent above the moon cast sky
How is it you cannot see me?
Compelled by love
My spirit rests here beside you
Imprinted in elaborations of unseen eons
I await your awakening, my Love...
--M.D. Burke
