Old Journal Entry: December 26th, 2002

Old song I wrote on December 26th, 2002.

I Thought
by Marcus Twyman

I thought I heard you walking in the hall,
But when I looked, I knew I hadn't heard anything at all,
It must have been my mind playing tricks on me,
Life's been hard, keeps giving me grief,
But your perfume's scent still lingers on the air,
That's impossible since you aren't even here,
And why do I feel a gentle breeze?
Like someone just brushed past me,

Chorus:

Is it your spirit floating past me?
Clinging to the love it feels in me?
I know you'll always be near,
In this life you left so easily,
Late at night while I sit quietly,
I feel you there, but your image I can't see,
I tell myself that this can't be,
But it's true because your spirit lives on in me,

I never completed this one...it's only a partial entry in my journal.

Old Journal Entry: December 25th, 2002

A song I wrote on Christmas in 2002. 

Hold Me Close
by Marcus Twyman

I'm tired of waiting,
Tired of sitting by myself alone in the dark,
Tired of hiding,
Hiding my eyes and hiding my heart,
Which road should I of taken?
The one in the shadows or the one with a spark,
This is something I had no choice in,
I was thrown into the darkness that's corrupted my heart,

Chorus:

I'm clawing my way back up,
I'm tearing through my early gravestone,
Tried to break me, had some luck,
But the light's been captured, now I know where I'm goin',
I've lived before,
That life was a poisoned dose,
For this life I have the cure,
It's when your arms hold me close,

For years I've been dying,
Dying from the loss of my soul,
Life was full of hating,
And cryin' for a life that had nothing to show,
Then I met you,
A being who could set me free,
I found the missing clue,
Now I'm the person I was meant to be,

Chorus:

I'm clawing my way back up,
I'm tearing through my early gravestone,
Tried to break me, had some luck,
But the light's been captured, now I know where I'm goin',
I've lived before,
That life was a poisoned dose,
For this life I have the cure,
It's when your arms hold me close,

I'm getting through the pain,
Slowly but surely I'm on my way,
I'm feeling no more shame,
A bright future is on the way,
Please stand beside me,
I know I can't do this on my own,
You won't ever lose me,
You're the only good I've ever known,

Almost Done With The Song I'm Pitching...

I'm almost finished with the song I've been working on. This is so not easy...I've got a deadline of Wednesday to get the completed song sent in to the publishing house. I'll see if I can upload it on here once I finish it.

Wish you all the best!

Marcus

Typing like a maniac!

Oh boy...I've been typing like crazy the last few days. You guys will be thrilled to know that I have another chapter completed on the novel and another major scene done of the graphic novel. I also have a song posted on here that was inspired by the love interest between Kallen and a girl that you guys won't meet until the book is published (I know, I know...it's not fair to make you wait).


I've been getting quite a bit of fan mail the last couple of months and I just want to take the time to say THANK YOU! You guys keep me going, and it is a great help to know that there are people who are looking forward to reading the craziness that gets born inside of my head.


A special thanks to Asha Anderson, Rebeka Crowlley, James Thompson, and Sarah Walkins. I appreciate all of your support and enthusiasm!


OK everyone, I gotta get back to studying for my exams and writing.


Best Regards,

Marcus Twyman
