The bright city lights remind me of the nights we spent so young The fall air reminds me of the days we spent cheek to tongue The memories take the life out of me and the man I wanna be If I could I would let it all go, I would But my heart just brings me back to the day when I begged you to stay but there you stood... ~ D.P.

I still dream of you late at night. I dream of your silky black hair and your big brown eyes and for the night all seems right. I wake up only to not find you there. It's not fair. I miss you and we both know I still love you. I often wonder where we went wrong I Still listen to all of our songs. I listen to every second. Every second, every tear that falls is just happy filler to that fills my day that's all. If I had a time machine I'd travel back and try my hardest to make it all right, but for now I will settle for you in my dreams even if it's just for the night. ~D.P. Shoemaker

The rain falls the same and that black cloud that follows me around never seems to white. The sun beyond the sky never seems to shine just like these words line after line. I Pretend like everything is the same so the ones we love don't see the pain. I'm surrounded by these four white washed walls tears filled up to the rim The bright light that used to reside inside my soul has grown dim. I'd break this world in half just to see you again I would then take the broken pieces douse them in gasoline and strike the match if it meant I would get to see your smile again, but I know that won't happen I just can't win. The fog still lingers the same and the cold that follows me around never seems to warm. The sun never seems to rise just like my words written here hidden behind the lies line after line. I don't feel alive something inside me has died I said I was fine but I lied. I'm just an empty shell of a man that I used to be. Why did the universe take you away from me? I don't feel alive. It feels like everything inside me has died. I'm just a broken record skipping between verses and choruses The rain still falls the same even more so when I hear your name. I can't come alive everything inside me has died. I'd smile but it would just be a lie. ~ D.P. Shoemaker
