Now that we don't talk
I listen with my eyes
I look at heaven when you walk by
Whispered words stitch up my tongue
so I don't accidentally say how much I long
for you.

a love like ours makes the moon hide behind the sun
and fireflies swirl across a river
electricity sparked through your fingertips
while I was counting droplets last night on our window
each shadow sliding down my cheeks
waiting to reach my lips
love like you makes me think
that the knots that tie us together are laced with gold
a love like ours doesn't exist in fairytales
because our secrets are passed on through the wind
and when I'm gone your fire will keep my ashes warm
leaving no trace of the love we left behind

maybe I'm not meant to fall in love,
maybe it's not for me
to be a wife, mother or lover
to love or be loved?
maybe it wasn't the right time
the stars weren't aligned
maybe I wasn't witty enough
to play along with this endless game
maybe Cupid wasn't in my favour
ice cream melted in all the wrong flavours
maybe you weren't the one
but I thought you were
wherever you may be,
I hope I'm always your maybe

Your strength is something I've always admired
you probably don't hear this enough
but, you've always motivated and inspired me
to push through dark moments
Your light keeps me warm when my heart is racing
and your breath feeds me new beginnings
helps me back up after I've fallen
You're absolutely beautiful inside and out
and it makes me happy to call you a friend
If I'm lucky, one day we'll get to meet
until then, don't forget how extraordinary you are
Talented, raw, inspiring and strong
Sending you my love and happiness
You have me here always,
R

if I hadn't met you
my wings would be broken
the sky wouldn’t be as blue
If I hadn’t met you
I wouldn't stop to smell the flowers
or sing my favourite songs in the shower
if I hadn't met you
would I have known to say "I love you?"

can I be your morning coffee
right when you wake up
and your warm cup of tea
before you go to sleep
wishing I was the cup against your lips
held right below my hips
can I be the tears running down your cheeks
and the shadow right under your nose
can I be the music you listen to on a rainy day
and the dimple right below your eyes
can I be your breath after walking up the stairs
and your late nights completely unaware
of all the things I want to be to you
can I be yours?

like a flower I wither
when I'm not with her.

late-night angels whisper in my ear
"she's doing just fine, my dear"
late-night devils tangled through my prayer
kissing my lips leaving me without air
"you don't need her, my dear"

if I die, would you come to my funeral?

she reminded me of a warm summer day
the way the sun bounced off her golden roots
gave shelter to lost stars
her smell tangled my body in cotton webs
tied among clouds and her threads
she doesn't walk beside me anymore
but whenever there is a warm summer day
I feel her embrace
