I've forgotten thy name, though I used to call it
forgotten thy face, though I used to think it fair
forgotten thy voice, though it charmed my ear
forgotten that place, though we tarried there
forgotten that time, that felt like forever
forgotten the reasons I thought to cherish thee
forgotten thy faults and thy virtues alike
forgotten, an' thou never remembered me

Civil War of the Heart
blue and green, blue and green, come and seen: conquered easily.
no fear, nothing here, future dear: going peacefully.
tragic past, lonely past, forgotten fast: new history.
they'll write books about it
the armies met on the field
peace in green, passion in blue
they'll write novels for ages
the details lost, the story changes
the outcome always the same
they'll tell their children the tale
the epic of no contest
the battle without fighting
there was only Victory, no loser, no Death
Omnia Vincit Amor
Reason and Logic make poor generals
Omnia Vincit Amor
the Maker is Strategist and Spy
Omnia Vincit Amor
Love never fails.

Leslie loves Davey
Looking around, I see
Everybody else has
Somebody special to
Love and cherish and
I try not to let
Envy get the best of me
Last but not least
Or middling but the
Very best God has
Ever given to a
Sinner like me.
Doubts have cleared
And I'm very
Very sure I have
Everything I wanted in
You.
