1 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Fool in love

Candle light dinners

Your pillow talk is so sweet

You even showed me what a life together would look like

The jokes’ on me, isn’t it darling

I’m a fool in love

You wore all the right dresses

My favourite perfume and the colour of your lipstick

I’m a fool in love

So sweet our love affair

One of so many other fools in love

Loveable is what your are

You set the bait well, darling

I’m a fool in love

I’m seduced and can’t see going back

It’s the beginning of the end, time to move on you say

There’s another at your feet to take my place

I know your every move

I thought I knew what made you smile, what made you cry

I’m a fool in love with a woman I created in my mind

You never accepted my ring, you asked me to wait

There’s a knock at the door, it’s time for me to go

You kiss me on the forehead and say it was nice

I’m a fool in love with a woman I created

Another will easily take my place

A fool in love, that’s what I am, in love

I’m a fool in love

2 March 2020 Song/Poem of the day — Tangerine

Bright as you are my love

My tangerine love you make me smile

Together in our live, our laughs together

Come here my darling by my side and sit with me

Oh my tangerine love, so bright our love

In the length of life our love survived

My tangerine love dance with me

In the sweetness of our life you gave me so much love

My tangerine love

In the depth of our struggles we shine so bright

My tangerine love

My darling I smile because you smile

In the sorrows of our life you held us up high

My tangerine love thank you for such love

In the end of our life you left with the bright light

My tangerine love

All I can say is I love you

My tangerine love

What a life, so bright, so sweet

My tangerine love

3 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Stardust

Twinkle in my eye, stardust, stardust

Like diamonds dangling from the sky

You bring a twinkle in my eye

Kiss me baby before I go crazy

You leave a trail of stardust everywhere you go

My heart burst into stardust

Carry me away

When I look up at a the starry sky you’re all I could see

I see all of you, I feel all of you

I close my eyes, I dream of you

Stardust from heaven to earth

It’s blissful when you’re in my arms

A burst of stardust all around

So pretty you are, so luminous

Kiss me baby before I go crazy

Stardust, stardust, you’re the twinkle in my eye

My heart of hearts, the love of my life

Come here baby and dance with me

Leave a trail of stardust at my feet

All is right when you’re in my arms

It’s all I need,

A little bit of your stardust on my lips when I wake to start the day

Stardust, kiss me before I go crazy

My heart is made up of your stardust

Stardust

4 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Snowflake

No two the same in love no matter where you look

No matter how far you go, no two the same

Love is like a snowflake

You are nothing like I’ve seen before

You are nothing like I’ve felt before, nothing like I’ve loved before

Baby you’re love is like a snowflake

Gentle and light

But it’s I who melts in your hand

You’re love is like no other

All it took was to see you once

When you smiled at me, my heart melted like a snowflake

All I could do was smile back

From the other end of the room I found my way to you

It was so easy when I saw you

I recognized no two are the same

You were dressed in white, I whispered snowflake

Snowflake, that’s how you’ll forever be in my heart

How could I be so lucky

There you were like a snowflake drifting down from the sky

I put out my hand and there you are

Gentle and light your love

Like a snowflake, but it’s I who melts in your hand

I had given up on love, ’til I realized no two are the same

Snowflakes and love, no two are the same

Now winters are bright and the sky is blue

The grey in my life is gone

It only took one snowflake to open my eyes

And see the bright blue sky of the coldest winter of my life

Snowflakes and love, no two the same

Snowflake, a wonder of life

No two the same

5 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Harvest Moon

You grace me with your presences and still I shy away

I’m a stranger to these feelings

You shine so bright like the harvest moon

It seems I can reach out and touch you

You make it so easy to get a good view

Your light wraps around the sky

The air is cool in the glow of the harvest moon

Yet you warm my heart

The harvest moon illuminating path guides me to you

The fallen leaves under my feet sing to me

It’s the season to open my heart to love

Can my heart grow as big as the harvest moon

Will it shine as bright, can it give such love

I’m frightened of my own light

So tender such a heart, will it hurt again

Am I worthy, can I reap such love from this harvest moon

This harvest moon of the cool season of my life

Giving me its light to open my heart

A rare beauty before me

Can I reap the love of this harvest moon

The harvest moon of my life

Is there courage in my heart to step into the light

I see it clearly in the night sky

With grace the glow smiles back at me

With grace my heart turns to the harvest moon

So gentle my reach to embrace its light

Suzanne Mondoux

6 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Stop You Crying

I’m sorry for what I’ve done and I know I’ve hurt you

So much gone wrong in what was a beautiful situation

I know you can’t go on and I’ve made you cry

Trust me when I say I want to stop you crying

There’s a whole world out there but you stayed

Baby you take my breath away and all I’ve done is made you cry

I want to stop you crying and make you smile

Darling it’s been a long road, even more for you

I don’t want you to go but I’ll understand if you do

Even when you say never will you go

I want to stop your crying if it’s the last thing I do

Before it’s too late and there’s no more life in me

This is what’s left of my mind, some sweet moment

Some more lucid then others, just enough to say I love you

You’re my darling, my best friend, my partner for life

Sometimes I remember good moments, you were not crying

Then the tears came, you held my hand and stayed at my side

I would change all this to see you smile for a day

When my mind is vile, know that I love you, know it’s not me

For a day will come when it’s all calm, the end has come

I would change it all and make it soon to stop you from crying

You tell me not to worry it’s just what you do to get by

Today you smiled, I saw you

You folded this letter and placed it near your heart

These are my last words to say I love you

My last wish was to stop you crying

All it took was my smile, lucid enough to blow you a kiss

You turned out the light and kissed me goodnight

Suzanne Mondoux

7 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Find you Loving

How did we get here, I feel it’s the end for us

So much change and there’s no turning back

I find you loving another and there’s nothing left for me

So easy for you to move on, it seems

I find you loving another, is it so easy for you

Show me you have a little bit of pain

Is there anything you want to keep from us

Can it really be so over where finding you loving another is all there is

I’m in a class of my own, broken hearted and alone

You composed yourself so well and fell in love with another

I may just fool around for a while, I don’t see myself loving another so easily

But you’ve always been strong

You never hang on to things, you let go so easily

I could never know if that was good or bad

But I don’t want to judge, I just want to be able to love as you do

Even when I find you loving another

It’s so crazy how we’ve come to this crossroad

Finding you loving another was always going to be it seems

Am I crazy to think so, am I wrong

And finding you loving another doesn’t seem so wrong

Finding you loving another may be the best thing for me

May be the best thing for both of us

Of course life goes on and sometimes it involves loving another

Has it always been our destiny finding another to love

Everyone says to me take your time

There’s plenty of fish in the sea

But deep down I never wanted anyone else but you

I found myself in love with you and only you

Finding you loving another is the way now

Finding you loving another is part of me now

That is what I’ll keep from us

There’s no compensation for this but to move on

8 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Cash In

Throw out the trash and keep the best that you have

Out with the old and in with the new

Cash in what’s left and keep looking ahead

Some say you’re done and others say you’ve just begun

Cash in your chips and ignore all those stupid rules

Never mind what is and follow your dreams

Some say how things are done and they think they know better

Cash in what you have and flick that finger to all that hold you back

Cash in your own opinion before any other

Fill your head with the sound of your music instead of everyone else’s noise

Act from inspiration and lean into your dream

Cash in your dreams and more will come

Be different then the herd, be you, it’s so much easier

Wear your different clothes that exposes who you are

Wear your hair in your wild and free style

Cash in all that you have and let go and have fun

Cash into yourself and watch the magic before your eyes

Get to know your soul, see who you really are

Cash in all and fly to the sky

Keep your head up high and look to yourself

Dance to the beat of your own drum

It’s all that you have and all that is worth anything

Cash in into your rhythm, dance dance dance

Move wildly into your own space, feel your soul

Cash in your own life no matter how hard others try to steal it

There’s nothing to cash in when you give it away

Keep your life close to your heart and cash it in to the highest bidder

You,

Cash in to you

Suzanne Mondoux

9 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Where are We

What chance do we have, what chance is there really

Is this the moment we asked each other where are we

It’s been a long road of beauty and love, yet where are we

How can we go on without knowing what we really want

Where are we without the truth between us

It could bring us close or tear us apart

How scared are we to know where we are

Sometimes saying I love you just isn’t enough

Love of my life scares me so because where are we

We have it all, don’t we

Can things change so fast once we know where we are

Maybe we will never let each other go

Is this what we want, is this what we really know

Where are we now if there is more we want

Are we enough for one another

Is what we want really elsewhere

Where are we my love

Is almost everything I give you enough

Is almost everything you give me enough

Where are we my love

Where are we in our love

Where are we my greatest love

So brave you are to ask where are we

Where are we

Suzanne Mondoux

10 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — No Tomorrow

Fancy a dance baby, today is our only day

Come and move your body with me to the tunes on the jukebox

Or I can sit at the piano and sing you a song

But you must dance baby since there’s no tomorrow

No tomorrow for me and you

At the strike of midnight we must part ways

There you were sitting at the end of the bar

A cocktail in one hand and tears in another

You sat next to me at the piano and sang us a song

Your melancholy blues poured out of you

You sang no tomorrow for me and you

It’s been a long day even when your family is waiting for you at home

No tomorrow for me and you

No matter how I love the touch of your hand

No matter how you feel next to me at the piano

There’s no tomorrow for me an you

Each night I tickle the ivory but never yet for someone like you

I sing to myself with voices humming in the background

Never before for someone like you

It pains me that there’s no tomorrow for me and you

I leaned in to kiss you and you smiled

You took my hand and placed it on your cheek

And whispered, there’s no tomorrow for me and you

Yet it was the moment I fell in love with you

I still don’t know your name

But when you hear this song you’ll know it’s for you

There was no tomorrow for me and you

But we were in the moment and for that, who needs tomorrow

Suzanne Mondoux

10 March 2020

11 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Believe in Me

It’s been a struggle just being here and being me

For others who see me as someone else for their sake

Believe me when I say believe in me instead

See me for who I am no matter the fame around me

Believe in me for me

Someone who can have a broken heart

It makes me want out of this glory and fame

Believe me when I say I want to go home sometimes

And leave all this behind

Life goes on for my dreams are stronger than your scandals

You call my life my sins and you splashed them all over the front page

Believe in me to live my life without shame

I am me, I am free when I don’t need to apologise to you or them

My fame does not give you the right to steal my soul for your glory

Believe in me to be of tender heart who cries just like you

You said you loved me once, then you sold me out for a few dollars

This is more a reflection of you, you don’t give more of damn about you

Then you do for me

You didn’t believe in me and you succeeded in breaking my heart

I will bounce back, I believe in me

I listen to love and kindness, I believe in me no matter the scandals

Love believes in me, so I believe in me

I’m tender with me and I rose from the ashes

It could have been a tragic end, but I believe in me

My heart is renewed, I’m renewed

I believe in me despite your scandal

Suzanne Mondoux

12 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Last Drummer

In the grandest of halls where the walls sing out loud

The blues, opera to rock n roll they hum the tune of the last drummer

Curtain call and everyone moves to the beat of the drum

The last drummer rises and bows to say goodbye

The last drummer of the night, of this life

Every layer of the earth beats to the sound of the last drummer

The universe closes into the beat of the drum

Boom bang bang, a heart beat away for the last drummer

The beat of the drum expands all around

Everyone leans into the rhythmic sound

Each step forward with the beat of the last drummer

The end of is near, follow the beat, it’s your last drummer

The crowd goes silent to the beat of the drum

Last drummer rises and looks down at the crowd

Hooray shouts out the people, the dance of the last drummer

So long the others, this is their last drummer

Others danced to the beat of the drum

Others sang to the beat of the drum

The walls beat in and out to the sounds of the many drummers

Curtain call, the last drummer in the grandest of halls

The show must go on as it always does

Every beat of every show captured in these walls

What great ending for the last drummer

In death or in life, same difference

Beat of the last drummer, so long and goodbye

Suzanne Mondoux

13 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Where’s my Guitar

I’m alone in this cell

I’ve done the crime and doing the crime

But where’s my guitar

My soul has left me, I feel nothing without my guitar

What I’ve done can’t be undone

I have regrets, I always look back, and beg for forgiveness

Where’s my guitar, if I strum a few notes maybe I can make something right

No improvising in here, it is what it is

What have I done, now I know

Where do I go from here and how can I go on without my guitar

It’s all I know and all I had and I threw it all away

My guitar, my best friend, so foolish I was

Where’s my guitar, saviour of my soul

All is right when I feel you next to my heart

You rest on my lap and hold me tight

My guitar, how can I say I’m sorry for letting you go

Too easy my crime, it was so long ago

Can’t take it back

I’d give you my guitar to say I’m sorry

Where’s my guitar, where’s my guitar

Where’s my guitar on the side of these bars

Calling on all angels, put aside your harps to strum a guitar,

Just for a while

Let me hear you, especially when I day dream

I cry myself to sleep for the crime I’ve done

I cry myself to sleep for letting go of my guitar

What’s my life now without my guitar

Where’s my guitar to hold next to my heart

My heart strummed with love with my guitar

Where’s my heart without my guitar

Where’s my guitar so I can find my heart, feel my heart

Suzanne Mondoux

14 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — You’re My Sweet Boy

Hey little baby where have you gone

A gift from the heavens you were

You gave me a chance at life, to live again

Now you’re a man

You’re my sweet boy, forever in my arms

Closer to my heart, even when you made poor choices

You made it through the hard times

You’re soul so dark at times, yet you found your way out

Every step of the way you’re my sweet boy

Sometimes you cried for all those time out

Then you smiled back to where you really wanted to be

My sweet boy, you made it this far

I’ll always keep a candle burning so you find your way home

You’re my sweet boy, I see you’re light

It’s there for all to see, do you see it

Keep opening your heart and shine bright

You’re my sweet boy for all of my life

No more, no less, no matter what

That’s love for you’re child, my sweet boy

Even when it’s time out

You’re my sweet boy, my heart, in all your disguises

I see you for all that you are

You now know the light so well from you’re darkness

In and out, you come and go

My heart always cradles my sweet boy

When you let go my hand, I was never too far

I see the light of my sweet boy

No matter how dark the places you hide away

You’re my sweet boy, you have light that shines

Shine bright my sweet boy

Shine bright, it’s who you are

Suzanne Mondoux

15 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Cried So Much

It was so long ago but I remember you so well

You were just a boy playing in the back yard

Yet you were so sad, you cried so much when you were a boy

How lost you were, your soul detached

You cried so much as a boy

You knew who you were but no one would listen

In front of the mirror with your short hair you wanted to let grow

With your little boy shirt you’d soon replace with your sister’s dress

The expression of you only you could see

Only you knew what was true

I remembered how you cried so much as a boy

You spent most of your time alone in the tree house playing your records

Music sooth your soul, I could hear you sing to rock n roll

On your make-believe piano you made music for hours

You sang yourself to sleep after you cried so much ’til there were no more tears

You’re heart ached for change, you body and soul searched for you

You cried so much as a boy

Could there be so many tears in such a small boy

Sometimes I saw you smile, you showed a glimmer of hope

A sunshiny day was possible for such a boy who cried so much

I see that boy now and again who cried so much

My hair is long and I don’t have to hide in my sister’s dress

Only yesterday on my birthday she took me shopping for a new dress

No need to cry anymore she said

I remember how I cried so much as a boy

I wear my favourite dresses most the time

But I wear very nice pants once in a while

The expression of myself, I decide

Suzanne Mondoux

15 March 2020

16 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — First Love

Our first walk in the park the sun shone brightly upon us

It was a beautiful day in every possible way

You let me hold your hand all day

For the first time I knew what love felt like

First love, baby, you’re my first love

What a feeling, what ecstasy my love

I’m all grown up and I thought I knew what love was

I knew nothing until I met you

It’s a new life to be so in love with your first love

I see and feel everything deep in my heart

For the first time I feel the beating of my heart

I feel me, and my soul smile at me

You’re my first love, a true love darling

Life will last forever now

All life changes and this is for the better

I see my own wonder and joy in life

I went weak in the knees when you first kissed me

I never knew how this could really be

You saved me from me, my first love, what a wonder

It’s magic all around, a new light in life

Creating a new life together is so blissful

My first and one and only love, forever my darling

How this has come to be, making this a right time in my life

Frist love baby, lets live this every day

I give you my heart and my soul for just one more kiss

Darling, first and only true love

This it’s what it’s all about, you and me a life I could never have known

Baby, oh first love of my life, I’m down on one knee, take my hand forever

I’m so lucky I get to dance with you forever

Love leads all the way

First love of my life, I’m all grown up and you’re the best part

This life, full of light, first love, baby, you’re my baby

I bow my head to you, my first love

You will always reign in my heart

Suzanne Mondoux

16 March 2020

17 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Fading Away

Where was I all this time during the confines of such a life

Was I too busy hiding away or did I see something else

Everyone in the crowd can see each other but me

I’m the only one in the room amongst so many voices

It feels I’m fading away amongst the shadows all around me

I see glimmers of me in the mirror and imagine someone is looking at me

Are they looking my way at me, can they see me

Am I fading away from the life I’ve created for something new

I can still smell my favourite perfume, is it still me

When I look down at my feet I’m wearing my favourite red shoes

Is it still me or am I like a butterfly fading away into something new

Fading away from the past into the present day

Fading away into the present day, what an extraordinary place to fade into

I’m light on my feet in my red shoes and I dance around a new crowd

I see smiles looking at me, it’s me they see

Fading away from out of the fog into the sun I let others see me

I go on into this new light and fading away from the opinions of others

I’m fading away from all those fingers pointing at me saying how wrong I was,

And how hard it will be

Taking all the best of my old life into the new

I’m fading away towards the rainbow ahead of me

It’s me I see, the me I recognise

I almost lost her forever fading away into a crowd I didn’t know

Fading away is the best thing I’ve done for my soul

Fading away to find my way

Fading away to stay true to myself

Fading away to meet me all over again

Fading away realizing and living my dreams

Suzanne Mondoux

17 March 2020

18 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Ghost

There’s a kink in my chain and I’m stuck in this house

Like a ghost I search for life room by room

Sadness and destruction is all I can see

Quietly I float all around

I’m a ghost in this house and no one sees me

I can make a sound and some look up but it’s not for long

Is there life in this house except for the ghost

It’s me you see right through, and it’s in front of me you self destruct

Are there other ghost in this house or am I alone

Let me see you and come play with me

Sometimes I feel you next to me

I see your face, the same face on the photo hanging on the wall

I’m a ghost amongst the dead in this house

Sometimes they stick a needle in their arm

Sometimes they put something in their mouth

Then they all look dead amongst the ghost in this house

I creep around with a book in my hand

I look up at night and wish upon a star

Each morning I wake as a ghost in this house

Sometime to a smile, most of the time to cries

I smile at the ghost in the mirror and keep wishing upon a star

There’s something else outside this house away from the dead

There is life for this ghost amongst those living

I’m coming, I’m preparing with the books in my hands

Suzanne Mondoux

18 March 2020

19 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Through the motions

It’s started as a normal day going through the motions

Then I realized how mundane life was each day

The same, day after day, the same complaints and the same of everything else

I wondered if there was more than this, going through the motions of this dull life

Going through the motions for the sake of a pay check

It’s how we manage fear day in and day out

How crazy is this way of life, going through the motions with no hope in sight

No hope in sight for any change for a better reality of my life

It’s how it is, they say, so we swallow it whole

It’s what society say we must do, swallow it whole

No point of being a dreamer, it doesn’t put food on the table or pay the bills

Some of us have kids you know, that’s what going through the motions is for

Can this be real, is it really the reality of our life

Going through the motions just to get through the day to get to the next

Round and round we go until we are dead and buried in the ground

That’s going through the motion to our grave, it isn’t going anywhere

The grave waits patiently for us, it isn’t going anywhere

Going through the motions shepherd’s us there, and we don’t even know it

What a life we live, it’s how it is, so be it, they say

Is that so, for some of you it is

For this soul, there is more, there is going through the motions for something new

A life without mundane repeat just for the pay check

Life is not a motion, life is alive for living

Go through the motions for your life, live it, no matter the cards you dealt for yourself

You made this reality, you can change it by going through the motions for desiring something new,

It’s but one life for living, motion into it

Motion towards your best reality

Suzanne Mondoux

20 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Kindness

It’s never too late to be kind

Acts of kindness take no effort and makes everyone smile

You decide each act of kindness for your self

Goodness and kindness trickles easily throughout everyone and everything

Kindness towards others reflects kindness for self

It’s never too small or ever too big

This is the world we live, we can create our own kindness

C’est la vie, this can be kindness

Is it a cruel world or a fearful world

Either way kindness for all makes it a better world

Now is a good time to act only from your heart

Kindness can easily prevail and never overwhelm

Let it be so for just one act a day and see the smiles all around

We can do this together even when isolated from one another

More kindness for self allows for more kindness towards others

Kindness in grace under pressure and when in fear

Kindness is for you and me and everyone you believe doesn’t desert it

Kindness is connection to another, and most of all with yourself

How else would you like to live day in and day out

Imagine all that can be with kindness all around

It’s so easy being cynical instead of extending good will

Tender loving care for others is tender loving care for yourself

Be kind to yourself to remind yourself you have what it takes to be kindness

Being kindness is a way of life and opens your heart to receive kindness

It’s never too late to be kindness

Suzanne Mondoux

21 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Open Arms

Open arms baby, come to me and let me hold you

Together we can embrace one another and the world around us

It’s a magnificent time for magnificent things for being together and for one another

In your loving arms my darling in see the world in a new light

A world with open arms a magnificent moment for me and you and for all

Come closer darling and let me see you

I open my arms and heart for you to see and embrace me

It’s so easy to receive such love with open arms

Sit here by my side and lets talk all night

I’ll keep you close with my arm around you

Open arms with one another is open arms to the world around us

How do others live short of tenderness and love

How can open arms sooth their pain and bring them smiles

Together with love open arms starts with us, my love my best friend

We can share this love, our open arms to the world around us

There’s enough love to go around

Open your arms to your friends and neighbours and bless them with a smile

Keep your smiles on your faces, you never know who you’ll meet

It’s a small world and open arms can reach us all

Together in harmony with love open arms welcomes us all

It’s a magnificent time for magnificent words and actions

Open your arms to your love ones and someone new

Plant this seed of connection joy and love

Together it’s a magnificent time for open arms

My darling, come closer and embrace us with your love

See me closer in your arms and feel my love next to your heart

Baby it’s a great world in your arms together we share with our friends and strangers

Open arms a perfect stance for love

22 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Roar of the Crowd

Come, get closer and gather round

See the show up close and feel free to participate

Shout out and sing along

Feel the roar of the crowd and be part of the sound

Sing out loud with the roar of the crowd

Feel the music in the air and dance all around

Cheer to what pleases you

Let the rumble of the crowd inspire you

Hooray the music goes on and on in the distance

All ears wait for the roar of the crowd

No silence for those sitting on their rocking chair on the porch

Their feet tap along with the beat and stand to the roar echoed all around

All hands in the air to celebrate the journey of the sound

Roar of the crowd drifting high above the clouds

The stars glitters to voices on the ground

Each voice creates the music and units the crowds

Roar of the crowd the healing sound of the human voice

Together as one with the music and any cause

For life and wellness the roar of the crowd ignites

Hello out there, together we are one

It’s so easy diving into the roar of crowd

It caresses and invites all to lean on one another

The wave of bodies swaying all around

In the roar of the crowd hearts expand and everyone holds hands

23 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Can you hear me singing

From way out there all by yourself can you hear me singing

This song is for you darling, and only for your ears

It’s the longing for you that inspires me to sing to you

To create for you and to love you more and more each day

So far and yet so close and how far we’ve come

I sing for you day and night

Can you hear me singing, this is to keep us alive

For you my love, soon we will be together

Can you hear me singing so deep in the dark

Or is there light for you to sing to

I know one day you’ll wake, one day you’ll open your eyes and smile

Each day with you is a wonder, a blessing

I feel your life in my hands, with each breath you take I sing

Can you hear me singing to you my darling

It’s a long sleep but one day you’ll wake

I will sing you awake in my arms

Follow the sound of my voice, this love song is for you

It’s hear you’ll find your way, into the music of our voice

Remember how you sang to me, remember our voices together

Can you hear us singing, it’s how you’ll find your way home

Can you hear me singing my love, it’s all for you

This long sleep has kept you from me but soon I know you’ll sing with me

Life is still with you and in you, in this love song for you

You can hear me singing, I feel it in your hand

Listen to my voice, listen to me singing, I’ll guide you home

Can you hear us singing together again, it’s one voice, one heart, our love

Can you hear me singing, it’s all for you

24 March 2020 Song/Poem of the day — Making It To The Top

What does it take to be happy in such a place

Where do I go from here to where I want to be

Who do I become to be who I am

What has to be done to making it to the top

I’m a showgirl and the show must go on

Whether I’m tired and can barely pay the rent

Making it to the top seems so far away

But yet with my fingertip I can touch this light ahead of me

It’s the showgirl in me that makes me survive

Will I know when I’ve made it to the top

Will I recognize myself in the limelight

How much further do I need to go to make it the top

Making it to the top is it as far as I think it is

Why search for something different from where I am

The show goes on, I’m a showgirl reaching for the top

Each night I play the piano, sing and dance for a crowd calling out my name

I headline in the dives of all dives

The showgirl that I am believes the show must go on to make it to the top

One night changes my entire life, it’s one step closer to making to the top

A new stage and new lights, new faces in the crowd call out my name

I’m a showing girl making I to the top

My life on stage, in lights and in a crowd

I face the audience and take my bow

I’ve made it to the top

Making it to the top did not make me become me

It took who I was and to be me to make it to the top

Making it to the top is many steps that go on an on

25 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Where’s my Voice

It may be a small part but it’s a part of this life nonetheless

No matter how big or small somewhere out there there’s a place for me

Where’s my voice in all of this, can it be heard from near or far

I’m but one soul amongst the crowd who shout louder than me

Where’s my voice in all this noise in my head

What creates quiet, a moment of listening to my own voice

I have a role in history for myself, where do I start

Do I wait and see what will be my first words

Is everything already written or do we write our own story

A chance at writing your own story, in your own voice

Where’s my voice when I need it

It’s thrilling knowing there’s one there, my own voice

My voice, how do I find such a thing

Can you hear me amongst the noise

I won’t leave myself alone until I find where my voice is hiding

Emotions linger in my heart, my heart longs for me

Where’s my voice in this every day world filled with so many voices

Do I kill part me to find my voice

In this crazy world there’s has to be a place for me, for my voice

It’s but a moment away to make this life more than what it is

Am I black and white all around without a way out

Is killing part of me the only way to find my voice

Where’s my voice in all of this life around me

In this life, is there such a thing as my voice

Is it worth living with hope to find your voice

More of my life can only be lived in my own voice

Where’s my voice in all of this, inside of me

Inside of me is where I’ll find my voice

26 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Just a Breath Away

Can you hear the orchestra playing in the distance

Our love is like the music in the air

Together we breath as one no matter how far you are from me

It’s all about love this life, I hold you in my heart

Your just a breath away my darling no matter how far apart we are

A day is but a moment and I remember your smile as though you’re just in front of me

All but a life with nothing more to ask when you’re just a breath away

No regrets for the time we are apart, be happy baby, you’re just a breath away

Soon with time we will unite and no time will be felt before we are together again

You’re just a breath away and I look to this day, it’s a moment away

Sing out loud to the music in your heart darling, I’ll hear you no matter how are far apart we are

A chance at life with you is worth every moment apart

We are just a breath away and I look to this day

Soon enough darling we’ll be in each other’s arms

I love you for your courage and your glory of heart

Never is it a lifetime away for when we can reunite

We are just a breath away and lets embrace this moment

Can’t you see how love keeps us united in the greatest of challenges

How wonderful you are to be so brave and keep your heart open to our love

Just a breath away in a moment in time I embrace

Patience is not required, love keeps me in peace

Just a breath away is my destiny to be with you

I’m just in love with you, that’s all, and just a moment away from seeing you again

We will fly away together in a moment in time

Just a breath away for you and me

I’m doing well knowing you’re in my heart

I see your face everywhere I go

I smell the roses on my walk and just a breath away I’m back in your arms

Embraced in your perfume my darling, life with you in a rose on my heart

Just a breath away you’re the rose on my heart

27 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — If I Can Lose You

What chance do I have when you can have anyone you want

You look at me once but not twice

Do you know that I’m there

If you were mind what chance would I have

If I can lose you to another, what chance do I have

So easy your love, it comes and goes

You tease me like no other

You seduce me with just a smile

You kill me so easily with just a look

You whispered you’d give me your heart and I believe this

My heart says to look out for your dangerous side

If I can lose you to another, what chance do I really have with my heart in your hand

Can you hold me with such tenderness to make me feel I can never lose you

You can have anyone you desire, and how much do you desire me

If you can desire me so easily, can I lose you to another so easily

I know that it’s true your tenderness for me but deep in my heart what is there for me

Is this a dream to desire someone so much as you

Is it my destiny to lose you so easily

You make me want you and ache for you it shows in my face every time you smile at me

But this won’t last forever for my heart tells me I can lose you so easily

It’s a chance that I take to give you my heart and I know it’s me who will pay the price

Everybody warns me not to love you and to let you go

It seems I can also lose you so easily just because you want to leave

You yearn for solitude and isolation and draw in your lovers when you desire

I could lose you so easily so you could live on your own

What’s in this for me if I give you my heart that you draw me into with such sweet kisses

You seduce me into your arms with such passion and release me so viciously

If I can lose you my heart will always cry out for what could be

I’ll go mad first before I lose you to your solitude

28 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — How To Find a Lover

Hmmm, Hmmm, Hmmm, it’s so hard to find you

How do I search for you and where do I find you

The days are long and lonely without you

How do I find you, how do I find a lover

La, La, La, for love, in love, how do I find a lover

My bed is cold with just me to warm it on my own

A quiet and lonely heart lies beneath the sheets

So sweet my dream of you

I long for your hand against my skin and lips to kiss me

How do I go on with such a hard life of loneliness

Distress easily consumes me with a heart eager to love

How to find a lover in this world, in this life

I claim this place in my heart for you when I find you

How to find a lover in all this noise around me

I wish upon a falling star for you to show yourself

God let me see my lover

Did I miss you walking pass me, was I blind at one time

Now I want to see and find a lover, the one whose in front of me and did not see

How to find a lover, hmmm, hmmm, la, la, la, I may have missed

Life, give me another chance to let me see what I may have missed

What did I miss with my judgment for the lover that stood before me

How do I find a lover once there for me, all for me and only me

I take a chance to open my heart again and let you claim that place in my heart for you

I free this place for you, my lover, how do I find you

I’m searching for my words to find you, to regain my sight so I can find you

Hmm, Hmm, ooh, ooh, la, la, la, in search of you

How do I find a lover that once stood before me

Hmm, ooh, Hmm, my lover, how do I find you, let me see you

29 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — I’m In The Dark

What’s this life I’ve made for myself with no wind in my sail

Drifting away on my own in the dark, where there’s no sunrise

I’m in the dark with my soul and my fading dreams

Where do I belong in this vast sea of life so deep with no light

Hmm, Hmm, Whoa, Whoa, Hmm

How can I go on in the dark corner of my soul

Will I ever find myself again when I can’t even hear my own voice

Someone or something is calling out to me but I can’t make it out

The dark waves are rising around me, encroaching on the only glimmer of light

I’m in the dark with no hope in sight of getting out of this life I’ve made for myself

Hmm, Hmm, Whoa, Whoa, I’m in the darkest place of my soul

I’m in the dark and I cry out for help in a place where no sound is heard

I watch for the tide recede but I fear it will take me with it, deep and far away from home

Hmm, Whoa, Hmm, Hmm, I’m in the darkest of all darkest places my own heart

How can this be, how did I let it be this way

Will I ever find me again, oh dear what have I done to my soul that shone so bright

Hmm, Hmm, I’m in the dark

I went to this deep dark place knowing where I was going

The waves rise, higher and higher, horizon out of sight

The darkest creature inside me rises from the sea, so deep inside me

It frightens me

I’m in the dark with the creature I gave birth to

My mind divides into so many phantoms to make sense of all this

Whose the real me in this darkest place of my soul

Can I wake from this darkness

Hmm, Hmm, Whoa, Whoa

I’m in the dark, I brought me here

30 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Leaving Love Undone

It’s a song in my heart that goes on and on

I turn from a crowd when they speak of love

What a feeling this undone with no one to go to

You made me love you with all my fears

Why did you have to go so soon our love wasn’t done

Leaving love undone pains me more than I could ever know

So short your journey in this world

Leaving love undone leaves nothing else for me but the pain my heart and my soul

Hmmm, Whoa, Whoa Hmm,

We had so much more life to live together

I had so much more love to give you

There’s nothing left for me to do when leaving love undone

My heart was all and only for you

You were taken from me too soon and suddenly my heart has no where to go

It’s a struggle each day living when leaving love undone

My heart beats for you and each night I cry myself to sleep

No one told me how painful life would be living a life with leaving love undone

Leaving love undone, Hmmm, Hmmm, Whoa, Whoa

It hurts too much leaving life undone

All my dreams and hopes dangle from the stars, too far out of reach

The heavens took you from me, hmm, hmm, whoa, whoa

Leaving love undone is more than I can bear

With every breath I hang on by a string and wish you next me

Hmm, hmm, hmm,

As you closed your eyes you told me it was time to go

You smiled and whispered love is never done

Suzanne Mondoux

31 March 2020 Song/Poem of the Day — Intoxication

To feel this life in all it’s glory even for just a moment

What my heart sings raptures my soul

Forever living the moment of ecstasy and wonder

What lies beneath the silent voices of such a life

It’s intoxication I feel for you and me in this world of wonder

Intoxication flowing through my veins

Like fire rushing through the forest to stay alive

Each breath of intoxication fills my body with overwhelming love

I walk through the streets in a trance

So close and yet so far from everything real and imagined

My intoxicated eyes follow the dreamy world around me

The intoxication of the world created in my mind

The wind carries me over the hills and sets me down into the valleys

I rise and fall in and around the clouds

My intoxicated body on the ground looks up at the stars

An intoxicated heart in a body sometimes with life, sometimes without

Hmm, whoa, hmm, whoa, intoxication of my soul

In love with the ideal of me, to befriend when truly known

Intoxicated life alone in my mind

I look down at my hands to see that I’m there

Intoxication of a heart on fire for love

Intoxication of a life to be known

Suzanne Mondoux
