American Life changes when you write it out in a poem.
I wear the smile you gave me, Your laugh stuck in my head.  Every where I go, I am reminded of you.  I can't stop thinking of how we are meant to be.  I can only hope you feel the same. When you hold my hand, Or wrap your arms around my waist, I can tell we will be together for awhile.  Hiding from the world, We don't let anything bother us, Never needing approval from them We can shine in our own way.  Even when we are apart, I know we will be alright, You dont need to see someone everyday to love them.  You are the rest of my life.  Forever and always

Smile you gave me
I call out your name in the middle of the night. The blackened sky pouring raindrops Like raindrops of a broken heart. The word is unaware of the love we share. Our hearts beating as one, intertwined and never parting. Our lips made to touch. Together we are unbeatable, Untouchable. Nothing will come between us. You always on my mind, Leaving a trail of passion. The feeling is so natural.

Natural
I remember looking up at the stars with you,  laying together next to the warmth of the fire,  the heat of being together.  To me that meant everything,  to you it meant nothing.  I wonder the reason why everything was said.  Why would you touch me like that?  It felt so real,  so natural  but it was just a game.  I know you said you don't want to lead me on  but I only said that I knew better  so that I can have the feeling that you were mine  if only for a moment.  I know you won't be around forever  and I know that you will never feel the way about me as I do you,  but why not dream for the impossible?

Everything but nothing
I let you in, Trusted you with my heart. And to pay me back, You break me. It's expected for me to sit here and wait. Wait for you to change your mind Wait for the realization of wrong doing And come back, But I am not waiting For you to just break me a second time. The tears fall, My heart breaks. You asked me to wait for you, But I will not go through this again. I will not be here when you come back.

Broken
What little life we have, We are just wasting. Trying to make the impossible work, Is just that, Impossible. Love is not something you search for It finds you. We found eachother, Our fate not meant to be together. We can not be one When everything is resisting us. I love you And will never cease that feeling, But we were not meant to be together forever

The impossible
Behind her smile  There is tears.  Tears you will never see. She hides them from the world, So they do not see her weakness.  Alone and suffering  None can help.  Darkness is her light.  The sun never shines, Because to her there is no reason.  She only dreams of being freed of her past.  A dream she will never see.  She knows that hope Leads to disappointment.  No one can see the lies in her eyes When she claims she is alright.  But that is not what she is.  Alone and weak, She will not let you in.  No need to let someone feel that pain.  No need to drag more innocent souls down.

Behind her smile
You may have heard this all before, How I live for your heart beat, And your looks glow like the sun, Taking me aback. But let me tell you. I love you more than all the lies told everyday. I could not live with out you. And I am different from those others, For I do not own my heart, It belongs to you.

For Sydnay
He stands there watching me, Thinking I can not see him, But truth be told, I see him too. He stands out in a crowd. As nothing you could ever dream of. You wouldn't believe his story, Even if you tried. So don't even waste your time. He saves us from the unknown. He never expects a thank you, Nor does he stay around to hear one. Just pass along the story, Of the mystery man. He stands in the corner. Always there. Always watching. Waiting for disaster. And when it comes, He will be there to save the day.

Watching over us
These feelings are so hard to describe  for I have never felt this way about anyone before.  It took us so long to finally be where we are now, but yet we still have far to go. Our journey had just begun sailing along in this world of choices.  We can take so many paths with this love we have started.  You are my sun in a world of dark.  Through the twists and turns of life  we will always be together.  Now that we are one,  we shall never part.  Our love will last for eternity.

Forever
Your heart wide open You let me in Trusted me and shared your secrets. You gave me comfort when it was needed And never turned me away when I was hurting. I do not know what undid to deserve this treatment But let me tell you this I will be there when you need me Just like you are there for me. Always and forever My back will never be turned. For as long as there are stars in the sky, Our friendship will also be alive.
