tobias-graves - Hello Poetry

Collapsing into that buried grave No one to come and save From all these monstrous thoughts Those days of long night shots Everyone leaving and going home Let under this lonesome dome Setting up my dead soul’s piece When will this decay cease The failure of my human journey Finding the transformation within me Leaving those broken bones and dead relationships Burning those promises and friendships Goodbye, my soul Dig yourself out from this six foot hole Be rid of this two year sore It cannot take anymore No one else matters

Decay

Collapsing into that buried grave No one to come and save From all these monstrous thoughts Those days of long night shots Everyone leaving and going home Let under this lonesome dome Setting up my dead soul’s piece When will this decay cease The failure of my human journey Finding the transformation within me Leaving those broken bones and dead relationships Burning those promises and friendships Goodbye, my soul Dig yourself out from this six foot hole Be rid of this two year sore It cannot take anymore No one else matters

I start to hear familiar piano chords The release from these dusty old swords I search for that old sound to find you You've paid your long overdue Starting over with this old and new Seeing your bright green eyes shine Waiting for me to call you mine Getting that dancing smile glance This may be my only second hand chance To ever have to be together again Leaving all regrets and failures in my den Meaningless to my own ear I just want to be with you, my dear The trumpets call out from the distance Your Christian angel hood showers over your face I’m trying to get to your heart without haste Just thinking of new possibilities Contemplating these new utilities Even if we aren't meant to be Just to hear your voice is love to me Chatting in that old car of yours Shutting those tender thought doors Romancing back to those February days of love She’ll wait and fly into the purple night sky

Arriving off from the air above Smelling that fresh new wave love This young man who wanted to search Finding his long thought out crush Thinking of a new era and dawn Walking under these castles as a small pawn Among these tall kings and queens You see the foreign glances and backward dances Wondering where to go and where to stay low Out of sight, out of mind I wouldn't mind spending some time With a fine dime like you, my darling On an everlasting journey to find the better half The half I can say that succeeds over me Everything I need and everything I wanted See cleans up the mess, left on this used table I want to see you more, what is your name label? Traveling through these dishes and hisses To find my true love at last Let’s take our flight and make off with a dash There’s just something about your face The feel of your scarred hands and restless fingers resting with mine I’m just here to tell myself it’ll be fine Looking for that long thought love Different parts Different lands Different plans Different lives Different loves Different Girl I know you’re out there Looking for that lovely brown hair Moving towards the unknown Who would've ever known? This writer’s eyes of the uncertainty Would find your eyes of blue

Goodbye my long forgotten love story We shared our youth spending glory Those days of innocence have finally closed My heart has ceased with the overdosed You shared your green pretty eyes with me I forgot how that smile was my long lost key Unlocking hidden dreams of our gorgeous passing days We've had our dragging overdue pays Changing for the better Changing for the worst Reminiscing over fond memories of the past Keeping this conversation alive to last My thoughts of you are calming down With all these painful doubts to drown You call me up and whisper with your soft voice We always had our year long choice Pretending to hate our junior age Moving unto the distance with this blank page Writing down our new adventures With or without each other We won’t share this same cover But we’ll mention each other in these memories book Once in a while we’ll take a loving look At what we had layed down long ago When we grow old and begin to go You’ll remember my glasses I’ll remember your side smiling glances You’ll remember my stupid haircuts I’ll remember how our love drove me nuts You’ll remember our quiet conversations I’ll remember our silent hesitations You’ll remember my poor departed eyes I’ll remember your beautiful ***** blonde hair You’ll remember my silly way to care I’ll remember the yellow dress you wore You’ll remember my last steps out the door We’ll remember our love forever and ever Goodbye, my yellow dress girl We change for the better, my dear Something I came to fear for many a year We’ll remember the day we held those storybook hands This is my last love letter to you The Yellow Dress Girl Gone and gone Away into happiness Fading away into happiness Happiness for as long she lives Goodbye, my beautiful bride, she’ll never be

Away into Happiness

Goodbye my long forgotten love story We shared our youth spending glory Those days of innocence have finally closed My heart has ceased with the overdosed You shared your green pretty eyes with me I forgot how that smile was my long lost key Unlocking hidden dreams of our gorgeous passing days We've had our dragging overdue pays Changing for the better Changing for the worst Reminiscing over fond memories of the past Keeping this conversation alive to last My thoughts of you are calming down With all these painful doubts to drown You call me up and whisper with your soft voice We always had our year long choice Pretending to hate our junior age Moving unto the distance with this blank page Writing down our new adventures With or without each other We won’t share this same cover But we’ll mention each other in these memories book Once in a while we’ll take a loving look At what we had layed down long ago When we grow old and begin to go You’ll remember my glasses I’ll remember your side smiling glances You’ll remember my stupid haircuts I’ll remember how our love drove me nuts You’ll remember our quiet conversations I’ll remember our silent hesitations You’ll remember my poor departed eyes I’ll remember your beautiful ***** blonde hair You’ll remember my silly way to care I’ll remember the yellow dress you wore You’ll remember my last steps out the door We’ll remember our love forever and ever Goodbye, my yellow dress girl We change for the better, my dear Something I came to fear for many a year We’ll remember the day we held those storybook hands This is my last love letter to you The Yellow Dress Girl Gone and gone Away into happiness Fading away into happiness Happiness for as long she lives Goodbye, my beautiful bride, she’ll never be

These ocean currents come pulling in This is our only time to have this win I look over to you with your sunglasses You make those side smile dashes I remember all the times we could have had Oh, how it made me feel so mad Not to take those distant chances For those all night dances Running around with your hand by my side Let’s go somewhere and take our secret hide You brushed your hair over the dock All these memories that never passed the clock I’m the romantic hopeless You’re such a hot mess Let’s stay together, my dear That’s the only thing left I fear How long will it be for us to stay this way? All the words I am never able to say Before you leave and never return How many times I had my stomach churn From these failed pasts and potential love aches Crashing onto your shore with the dozen mistakes You wiped away the crushing fury with a tear We’ll meet again someday, don’t fret my dear Comforting words, holding onto my Sydney We’ll meet again someday; you’ll be dear to me Traveling together forever, that never was to be

Before we parted this way I tried to think of something to say My achievements take a toll As my love continues to spiral down this hole I had to make a promised sacrifice Paying for this broken price I spend hundreds of months by myself Setting up this imaginary shelf Your face is blue stained glass The choir boys come to a mass You’re so lovely in that purple dress While I stand in the middle of this mess I have a grand plan to stay on tasks We hideaway these poison flasks If I could have both to cherish My body wouldn't erupt to perish Your body is warm, it brings me home I find myself alone in this empty dome Wishing to live forever here If only I could find out a way, my dear I wouldn't rush into unopened gifts All that is left is these forged drifts When will I have a darling like you by my side? Love has become a part that died

Sacrifice

With all these old familiar chairs We come to sit in new arrived pairs The teacher speaks in monotone speeches How much longer will he continue his preaches? Then I turn to you my darling You share that fresh start smiling With that brunette hair rolling off your back You filled my eyes from this black and white crack Colors of flavor and new embraced slides We speak about these tales of story tides Busting in with these staring contests No one can bother us, not even these pests We spend all this time on the run We’ll never be far from being done From all these writing numbers and little talks We’ll escape from this reality and into stone chalks Let’s think of one hundred things to do I’ll be looking at these untold pasts and upcoming new We’ll reach those new horizons my dear Your green eyes staring into that broken mirror Crashing onto that hood of twenty cars We’ll never have these potential scars Only one day that we met We were never meant to have a set Maybe we’ll meet again someday One day we’ll just be okay Just move on and single these moments alone While I lay to rest in dust and bone Till we meet again my siren

These Potential Scars

With all these old familiar chairs We come to sit in new arrived pairs The teacher speaks in monotone speeches How much longer will he continue his preaches? Then I turn to you my darling You share that fresh start smiling With that brunette hair rolling off your back You filled my eyes from this black and white crack Colors of flavor and new embraced slides We speak about these tales of story tides Busting in with these staring contests No one can bother us, not even these pests We spend all this time on the run We’ll never be far from being done From all these writing numbers and little talks We’ll escape from this reality and into stone chalks Let’s think of one hundred things to do I’ll be looking at these untold pasts and upcoming new We’ll reach those new horizons my dear Your green eyes staring into that broken mirror Crashing onto that hood of twenty cars We’ll never have these potential scars Only one day that we met We were never meant to have a set Maybe we’ll meet again someday One day we’ll just be okay Just move on and single these moments alone While I lay to rest in dust and bone Till we meet again my siren

Always wearing these rose colored glasses You’re making all these old card passes We’re not the same anymore Just this open wound sore Remembering these broken blossoms and blooms Wiping away these memories with brooms Sharing this forgotten past These things won’t ever last Old heartbroken mazes Falling into these confused dazes You don’t want to speak of it You’re getting tired of this repeated **** I had hopes with you For everlasting two When can these harmonies just die? You always have a hidden cry That one moment of honesty It was only you and me Forget all these happy times After all those failed signs Look at all these love messages send I guess this is just our bitter end Time to take these rose colored glasses off Goodbye to your broken blossoms and blooms forever

I always pictured this one girl I drew her out to have this gentle twirl She would have long brown hair Running down her back, so fair She would have pale white skin One hundred and one hair pins She would wear the prettiest yellow dress And she would be perfect for me But she would tease you with what you could only see She whispered funny things in your ear You’re the only one who could hear While we spend these times in your car Everything parked and night afar She would have these lovely curls Wearing these hidden white pearls She was what I could only imagine The thought of her was my one true passion We would run around with these engaged hands And land at the beach into these old sands You said to me, “Stop thinking of me, silly” I never known what she meant Until it came to me sent She kneeled next to me Gave me this long lasting sad smile with her perfect green eyes Giving me these last sighs “You’ll be happy one day, just wait a little longer” I never had to make such a long ponder My yellow dress girl vanished from me Leaving me all alone with this open sea Those last words took a great toll Feeling like I was falling down this hole All my love is genuine Just love for me is in this pen I write all these love poems Hundreds of words for you my dear I never meant to be so unclear It’s true I lost you when I needed you the most Creating these thoughts to stay as my mind host Distracting these retired emotions Setting these feelings with inventive motions Erasing that flower dancing yellow dress I will not be your tossed away mess I've always cared for you my sweetheart I’m just sorry that I broke your gentle heart

Sitting in this yellow room of yours Planning our great get away of bores This sunny spring day shines on us We are holding each other without a fuss Practicing our secrets before we’re out Our childhood means nothing now We got to please leave, get out of here Make these promised vows and run my dear She was crazy for me I was crazy for her We were crazy for us to be Hiding under the blankets of your covers Hanging onto these cliffs of dovers Swearing to our solemnly prayers I’ll play with your long golden hairs For as long as we are to be near We’ll hold hands together, looking into this mirror Then run away from all the unsolved problem Was I ever supposed to know I was going to feel numb? I’m so tired of these rests We are just out on our lasting bests Fantasies are just busy thoughts Like writing down lists and dots Just untrue marks and this ten month lie I just feel like I could die The sacrifices of this expression When should I bring this to mention? What comes next, what will be best? Is this right, is this wrong? I’m so tired, so heavy with thinking I wonder what we’re doing tonight? And for every night for the next one hundred years.

The Next One Hundred Years

Sitting in this yellow room of yours Planning our great get away of bores This sunny spring day shines on us We are holding each other without a fuss Practicing our secrets before we’re out Our childhood means nothing now We got to please leave, get out of here Make these promised vows and run my dear She was crazy for me I was crazy for her We were crazy for us to be Hiding under the blankets of your covers Hanging onto these cliffs of dovers Swearing to our solemnly prayers I’ll play with your long golden hairs For as long as we are to be near We’ll hold hands together, looking into this mirror Then run away from all the unsolved problem Was I ever supposed to know I was going to feel numb? I’m so tired of these rests We are just out on our lasting bests Fantasies are just busy thoughts Like writing down lists and dots Just untrue marks and this ten month lie I just feel like I could die The sacrifices of this expression When should I bring this to mention?
