I once knew a girl with a giant heart
Beautiful, sweet and awful smart
But far too kind and too naive
To give so much, and not receive
She would smile and satisfy
but at night, she would cry
She would sacrifice in secrecy
and weep in secret frequently
But in our eyes, she was blessed
So we didn't see her one request
Her scream of help wasn't heard
And gone, she was like a manakin bird.

It's night and I am to wonder
What is this sinister madness?
shocking me like thunder
an unexplainable sadness!
Sadness from sheering silence
Erasing all hope and guidance.
I wonder. But find no reasons
Why this sadness is needed
and like spiritual dry seasons
Wither the joy I once seeded
Drained and bleak, but why?
Sadness and silence, no reply.
Time passes days and weeks
I am still with no explanation
And when the sun finally peaks
I feel this relieved sensation
But why did the sadness go?
why did it come? I don't know.

Your head was on my shoulder
as we spoke about our dreams
to marry when we grew older
as a part of our schemes.
We would laugh and we would smile.
We were the happiest couple for a while.
Were we in love? No doubt.
But we were young and alive.
Our love was like a sprout
that could barely survive.
We wouldn't see the truth, the reality.
We were a couple, weren't we?
But when I left in 7th grade
I left a lot of things behind.
And sorry I was too afraid.
I caged words inside my mind
We parted on the beach. A final goodbye.
We no longer existed. We became you and I.
A young love, a first love.
It felt so true or sort of.
I felt safe, I felt secure.
You and I were too Immature.
And after many years I still wonder why?
you and I accepted that painful goodbye.

I have sailed the seven seas
on a sturdy ship with sturdy sails
And felt the ocean breeze
while guided by the whales.
I have fought a giant snake
A killer shark, a one eyed squid
and a monster from a lake
when I was just a little kid
By my side was my crew:
An otter, a dinosaur, a fisher bear.
Sailing across the ocean blue
together with joy and care.
But at the end of the day
I would visit my last location
I would put my toys away.
harboring my imagination.

I wander around in the valley of despair
To find the person who might repair
a shattered heart a long time scar
I wonder where you are.
And as I walk deeper into the pit of misery
I lose all my vision and cannot see
the spark of hope and solution
I wonder if love is an illusion.
And as the shadows break my resistance
I see a warm red light in the distance
as you save me and open my chest
I whisper "please, save the rest".
I hear the sound of fixing and engineering
and I feel all the pain disappearing
from my chest and my mind
I feel a love that's kind
I thank you, but suddenly I look and realize
what you did for me, that sacrifice.
In the silence of pounding hearts
I look at your missing parts.
To return the favor I hold you dear and tight
and I truly love you with all my might.
Merging both our hearts with care
to leave the valley of despair.

A shooting star shot me
with a 50. caliber of beauty
while I was standing guard
in the middle of my duty.
There I stood in silence
in the middle of the night.
Reminded of your smile
that is brighter than light.
Dreaming of those eyes
that illuminates my heart
and banish the gloom
that once tore me apart.
And as the shining sun rose
blooming beautifully slowly.
I thanked you once again
For not keeping me lonely.

When my best friend died
I was left with almost nothing
My loving words were dried.
and my heart wouldn't sing
We held a speech his sister and I
and we praised him to the skies
there was told not a single lie
in this ocean of silent cries
My words and his ears never met
A lot of kind and unspoken words
I held in my heart of regret
like a nest full of newborn birds
But I woke up in my bed
More lucky than glad
Because my friend was not dead
It was just a nightmare I had
I called him on the phone
And I opened up my chest
To let the truth be known
That truly he is the best.

I am chatting with a stranger
Her smile did not change
My brain is screaming danger
But my heart is out of range
This girl right in front of me
I could read her like a book
How great it once used to be
But a word was all it took
The yes in "yes, I love you"
A young man's confession
I didn't know what else to do
Than answering her question
The truth truly ripped us apart
Our roads became divided
And I was left with a broken heart
But once again our paths collided
And now I look at her again
As she was the skies above
A stranger a lover, a friend
A girl I will always love.

A broken heart and a lot of pain
What a terrible prize to pay
But that's the stakes of love
If you ever want to play
And if you lose and I hope you dont
Then please give it time
Cause if you never play the game again
You'll never win a dime
But if you win and I hope you do
Hold it close like a glove
Cause not many people nowadays
Truly wins the game of love
