I wish I could always feel how I do alone in the woods
I run through the trees breathless
Alive and awake and wild
Consumed by the trees
Every shade of green blinds me
I listen so hard to the birds and bugs and wind that I can't hear my thoughts
So free and reckless and untouched save for the the sun
Some days I think the forest wants to swallow me whole
and sometimes I think I just might let it
To disappear in the soft emerald folds of Nature's body
And just be this free wild thing
It's tempting
If it weren't for the mosquitos
I might just never come back

every time i think my heart is securely in my chest
you come back just to remind me that it's 1,857 miles away

hey there pretty brown eyes
with your summertime laugh
make me smile 'til my jaw aches
playing with my hands
like you don't even know
how it makes my breath catch
long hair catching the light
liquid sunshine strands
tickles my neck as you lean into me
soft voice like the mountains
calling my name
butterflies hot in my stomach
your perfect lips
catch mine and i can feel your smile
and taste your ice cream kiss

anger is a corset
red and tight
constricting my insides
until i can't breathe
anger is a corset
hot and laced
gasping for air
i can't get it off
anger is a corset
rigid and suffocating
unburden or asphyxiate
i am consumed

We were young and reckless
There wasn't one without the other
You jumped off a bridge I jumped too
Then we naively splashed in the depths below
But then we grew up...
Now the water under the bridge is shallow and clear
We stand with a half burned bridge between us
And as you look at me and jump over the edge
I scream your name

lovers claim their souls are made of the same stuff
but yours and mine are made of opposite matter
like the positive and negative ends of magnets
they constantly are attracted to each other
and we can't seem to resist the pull
that binds us together
our love seems
magnetic

my sneakers drum out a rhythm
on the pavement but
running from you is impossible
when every lyric
that blares from my headphones
holds traces of you

you can't understand
what you do to me
every glance clouds my mind
enthralled by the way
your lips say my name
with you i lose track
of all time
loving you is like breathing
your kisses like air
and i'm drowning
catching my tears
you pull me up
save me from the dark
holding me close
with you my heart sings
that's how i know
it's love

the person behind the looking glass
no longer smiles back.

r.i.p. me
i'm drowning in your eyes
so like the ocean
washing over my whole being
unable to leave
your tides pull me back
every time
i’m sinking fast
i can’t breath
i’m done for
lost in the vast oceans
of your eyes
