Sometimes the moon shines so bright
and it reminds me of you.
It lights up the darkness
just like you did for me.
Sometimes the sun shines too bright
and it reminds me of you.
The rays can burn you, hurt you.
just like you did to me.
Every little thing in this world
reminds me of you.
The good, the bad, the ugly.
it all flashes before me.
Sometimes I wish I could change it
or at least stop the flashbacks from happening
But we aren't are lucky.
Just like I wasn't when I met you.

Its the in-between time
Stuck trying to figure out
What to do now?
You could get a job
Catch some zzzs
Stay out too late
It's the in-between time
That changes things
People leave
They move on
And you're in the same place
Wondering "What the hell is going on?"
You didn't sign up for this
When you crossed that stage
Its the in-between time
That hurts the most
It's when you get a taste
Of how your life might turn out

I let it happen again
I let your sweet words entice me
Bind me up, hold me still
I let your sweet kiss silence me
Paralyze me, I couldn't think straight
I let your sneaky hands hold me
Go places, pull me into your body
I let it happen again
I'm weak in life
The slightest attention
I take ahold of
And let it put me under a spell
And this is a dangerous one

My mind has been fixed
All of these recent events
I just can't stop thinking
About that one long kiss
When I saw you with her
My heart sank low
Reality swept over me
Quickly reminding me of the past
Why you were a bad idea to begin with
I fall for the dangerous type
Ignore all advice given to me
Which is why I'm still here thinking
Of that one long kiss

Your words hypnotized me
I was under your command
Listened to every word
Like it was the gospel
You got me alone
Took advantage of the moment
And I didn't stop you
I was lonely
Your kiss paralyzed me
I craved more
The attention was electrifying
Until
Just like time
I slowly faded away
Like a kid with a toy
when you finished,
you left me
Confused, angry && tear streaked
To play with another gullible girl
Right in front of me..

Just like during a shower
when the rain falls down
On a summer afternoon.
The sun shines later
Unveiled from the clouds
Like curtains being pulled back.
Evaporation takes over
And the remains of rain
Are gone.
Except for.
The damp grass
And shiny cars caught in its path.
That's how we were,
Here one minute
Evaporated the next.
And I'm still feeling the effects
Of getting caught in a shower
Without any protection whatsoever.

Space.
That's what everyone wants.
They think it'll fix everything
Just like the words "I'm sorry"
Are supposed to heal wounds inflected.
But you see.
This isn't the case sometimes
The clock keeps ticking
Time keeps moving forward
And while one of us moves away
The other stays put, stuck.
This is you and me.
While you've been getting better
I've been kidding myself, lying.
Thoughts run rampart
Yelling and screaming about how I'm dumb
To think that everything would be okay after a while.
I just want it to be okay again.
They weren't kidding when they told me
It's worse than a relationship breakup.
Space.
That's what everyone wants.
They think it'll fix everything
When really it makes it worse.

it took me loosing sleep,
waking up at 1, 2, 3am
sobbing into my pillow
and making myself sick
to realize something I knew all along
I can’t wait forever
it’s been long enough
I can live without you
and I guess I have no choice
but to

I only knew how
To be a poet when
I was sad or
Feeling down
So when the grey clouds
Faded away revealing
Sunlight and warmth
I became silent
I only knew how
To write about
Broken hearts and
Broken promises
So when promises
Were kept and
Band-aids helped heal
I became silent
I only knew how
Pain stabbed
And tears stained
And thoughts cursed me
So when happiness came
I forgot what it felt like
To feel love & joy
I became silent
I won't say I'm better
Because I still have moments
But I'm done being silent
I'm not keeping this to myself

On Sunday afternoons
Vinyl lulls me to rest
I'm reminded of those days
When life was so simple
I dream like I'm there again
On Sunday afternoons
Vinyl lulls me to sleep
I lay there, close my eyes
Or stare at the ceiling
Lost in a sea of ever changing thoughts
On Sunday evenings
The vinyl has ended
And the sun has vanished
My dreams fade away
And my thoughts swell
On Sunday evenings
I put my vinyl away
I hit my lowest points
Not even the music
Can save me now
