My thoughts were so loud I can't here my mouth
I think of you  As I write tonight  I try to focus  On every word And line and sentence But all I'm left with are Senseless paragraphs And your name written  At the back of my hand

First draft
It's sad because I can't talk to you about love Instead we talk about stupid films, The ones we will never watch together  We talk about stories, But not ours, never  You look at me while I look away And it ***** Because all I wanted was to tell you  How cute your smile is How the weight of your stare affects me  And all I want is to hold your hand But now, as I think of you  I choose to be silent  Silence is okay  Silence is louder

Crush
"You can only fix broken things" You said as I stared right into your soul My heart beating inside my chest, slowly Hoping with a fragile hope "You can only fix broken things" You said while watching the sun set My hands went numb, fingers useless Wishing you noticed but all you did was look  "You can only fix broken things" But all I wanted was to hold you To love you slowly  In fear of losing and breaking myself too  "You can only fix broken things" I said when I realized I'm not good enough Filling the space between us with empty promises As I drifted off to sleep, I only knew one thing: That I cannot fix broken things

Cracks
He's supposed to be strong He's supposed to be the best  Because he's a guy You'll never see him weak You'll never see him cry Because he's a guy He has to hold on He has to keep moving on  Because he's a guy  But he's also shy and reserved Silent but listening  He's afraid to fail, slip, and fall He cries and drinks  To shut the weakness out But you'll never see this You'll never know this Because he's a guy

He
I want to be there When you're sick and cold To hold you close to my heart Never letting go I want to be there When tears start to gather near your eyes You can always borrow my shoulders And my arms, and my hands, and my embrace  I want to be there When you feel like drinking at 2am Because the pain woke you up And you know sleep is not an option anymore  I want to be there Even though you said you can handle it Even though you said you're okay Even though I can see your pain I want to be there  Because that's the only thing I want  That's the only way I can show my love To be there I want to be there  When you hate the world for being unfair When you drift to sleep thinking you're not loved I'll be there to stay.

Present
It was the first time I saw her Walking past empty sidewalks My hands were cold, the night was young I found myself entering a crowded room It was loud and everyone smelled the same I shoved my hands in my pocket Back against the wall, head lowering slowly But then I saw something  Someone* It was the first time I saw her She was dancing  I can't stop looking at her I was mesmerized By her hands, the way she moved It felt real Everything was perfect, beautiful  It happened really fast I didn't want her to stop I didn't want this moment to pass I didn't want to die

Genesis
11:09 PM will never be the same I imagine the space over the earth  Where the sun, moon, and stars appear  Gaze on the sky for me tonight Think of me when you see the clouds I lie awake on the other side of the world Cursing timezones and different horizons I wish I could hold you and tell you this "Let me taste those lips before I even see the world"

Synced
Sitting there under starry sky The smell of burnt marshmallows  The crackling of fire The laughter and chatter The sound of bottles clinking  The feeling of being young forever What a sight to behold A picture worth keeping  And then there's you Hair messy, glasses askew But still breathtaking  And then I was confused On which view was more beautiful

Bonfires
I am drowning Words fail me whenever I need it the most My thoughts would fill the ocean between us  But my words would never reach your shore  I am drowning My actions would never be as strong as his I could pull away the anchor that weighs me down  But my hands are tied behind my back I am drowning  And as I look up to meet your gaze  The world embraces me back to slumber  Your eyes like the color of sunset
