You tell me you will never love again. And that life is pointless and bleak. But i can tell, that you are full, of all the love you seek. But no one has been able, to replicate your passion. So I'll woo you with chivalry, keeping things old fashioned. For the idea of real flattery, is just about all lost. A compliment became a comment. A letter became a post. It's seems like we've forgot, what really matters most. But you still happen to be my muse. For when I'm ecstatic or singin' the blues. You're what I want, and what I choose. And through all your scars,  i see a light. And it's what brings me into sight. Of all the brightness you emit, and frightening things, one can't forget. I love you like a dying star, we see you shimmer from afar. So it took years, for your light to hit my eyes. For through your music, your love never dies.

Sweet Starlight
you were like warm alcohol blurry bed sheets, comforting. you were like scuffed sidewalk chalk multi-colored nostalgia, dusty. you were like good morning kisses jasmine and rose, i don't wear that perfume.

She was intoxicating Like wine Rich and dark And ruby, ruby red She moved Like she was bathed In love How could I resist?

Wine
I speak your name into the night my hands crawl across your sheets and your body isn't there I wait the chill in the air puckers my skin you've got a steaming cup in your hand, as you come softly padding in the nights blue light and your warm honeyed eyes "Come back to bed," I say "My feet are cold." "I'll be your heater. Am I hot enough for you to hold?" you climb in and thump my head We waited there Till the rays of light Shined on our forms Tea forgotten Sleeping like two children In a storm Clutched to one another tight

Nice People
She's my water woman Got an ocean in her eyes And a well in her chest She drags me down deep, all violent I let her, for it's me who is blessed inside of me, she cannot see my swimming heart leap She doesn't understand How can she when even just her hand takes me to the safe place I crave? An island. I’m surrounded by her. We make love and she's a tidal wave At night we navigate by touch I've learned all her constellations The stars she's made of She's the fountain of life Then she speaks And I know why Sailors were drowned In deep blue seas Her eyes find mine She breathes like it's me Who's the magic one After, we lie warm and still She says I'm hers like I should have known it all along I swallow my reply down like a pill And she doesn't know yet, The magic water woman, That I had never loved before I met her I had never loved anyone at all
