I'm 22 and I make time to write everyday. I usually spend an hour a day on writing whatever comes to mind. I draw inspiration from things I've lost and I typically write seemingly upsetting things. Feel free to like and comment on my writings, I love feedback and knowing what people think of my writing. Thank you for reading
I’d like to be
Somewhere in the sea
Where my life and wife can be
Alone in the sea
Is where we will be
My bride and my pride, you see

To love and live
Be it the same
Though in certain proportions
One heart can remain
Alone in the dark
With subtle remarks
To a love so lovers beware

Once upon a time
Sleep was an escape for me
But as you know
Time wears on
Now sleep is avoiding me
At first, I was a happy man
Who smiled at all he sees
But as you know
Life goes on
Now heartache is my company
I could live the lives of a thousand men
Traveling endlessly
But as you know
It takes a moment
To salvage sanctuary
So once upon a time
When time wasn’t a thought
But ah, you see
Time is that
That keeps you away from me

To live a life that I never known
Is to love a woman who never shown
I saw her once at the dusk of summer
To fall and spring at the end of winter
With summer returning and hopes raising
To see her again would be surprising
I stayed up late nights to see if she'd come
To no avail my hopes had run
To my great enjoyment I spoke too soon
I'll call you early to make plans for noon.

Your heart so fragile
Your eyes so delicate as morning wind
I woke to find you
Reading by candle light
The way you found me
It's as though we’ve been searching all our lives
And I know there was so much more to be given
But I left you alone that night
That was when I found myself someone better
All the promising I would never become my father
I wish I would’ve treated you better
So on my mantle I wouldn’t be displaying your letters

Come freely darkened shadow
Come along with the wind
Set your sights on the horizon
And I will mend your broken wing
Come along enjoy the weather
Feel the breeze throughout your hair
Mark December for your departure
And I will linger ever after
Come as you are I don’t care if you’re near or far
Come as you please I know you are all I need
Believe what you see
We’re in a big black hole
No way to be certain
No need to grow old
But I’ve been one to notice
That the present is like the past
And all our dreams are in focus
But we can’t seem to make them last
So I’ll awake from my slumber
I will update my calendar
I will see that it’s December
And I will linger ever after

There is a light
At the end of a tunnel
When our hearts cease to beat
It’s the feeling you get
When you’re all alone
And a lovers eyes you meet
It’s a long endless journey
With no sense of time
It’s the warmth of a soul
That will help and get you by
Have the angels found you
Alone with an empty heart
Will you make it to heaven
Or were you doomed from the start
Will I find you in the afterlife
Waiting at the gates
Or will I find myself abandoned
Oh, where will we meet
There’s a light
At the end of a tunnel
It’s calling out to me
I’ve felt this before
When my heart skipped a beat
It’s a long endless journey
With no sense of time
It’s the warmth of a soul
That helps to get you by
Have the angels found me yet
Alone in my bed
I will make it to the heavens
A quiet and peaceful end
I will find you at the gates
I will see your vibrant smile
I will rest in peace but I’ll never be alone
May I rest in peace but never rest alone

Come along spirit
Follow the being into the light
The sun will cascade around us
Come my love
Come freely into the unknown
The wilderness is as wild as hearts astray
Who are you
What has come between us
The lonely stares become conversation
The worrying persists
The memories remain
And I am to repeat this nightmare

All through the night
My dreams recite
A life I planned for thee
Where our children would play
And at night they pray
To grow up and love like we
But as the sun does rise
I come to realize
That I was in a dream
So I wait for the day
Where I can finally stay
In a world with closed eyes

If tomorrow brings the shimmering light from far across the sea
Forget the land you stand upon and let your soul fly free
If today is all we have, we shall keep it all that way
For nothing is what it seems, unfortunate the truth may be
Bring today what we’ve waited for
The signs from up above
Let loose the devils hand
For all is lost in love
