Sleepy as can be
Need some perfect sleep
To catch me dreaming of you

I want the flower to bloom
Because life would not exist without its beauty
Light is only shining
So God can see her smile

Sun hands
Reaching through darkness
Only to touch every inch of you

The sun may rise tomorrow-

I want to see the color
Because it can't always be gray
The blue of her eyes
The fiery red passion

Sun hands
reaching through darkness
Only to place warmth on your skin

*The sun may rise tomorrow
Keep me in your prayers soon hopefully I shall be feeling better love you all in Christ.
when the night comes silently
and all the world is asleep and still,
when the minutes and seconds
are suspended and slowed down
and the city becomes a whisper,
that is when i wake up.
night time is my time
to feel, to cry, to think, to write,
to be myself, by myself,
on my own terms.
by day i am a walker,
a zombie, a nothing,
just waiting
for the lights to go out.
in the darkness, i am
a beacon of light.

in darkness i am the light.
There are moments
when habit and subconscious imprison me
in an odd-shaped place I call my past

I find myself dialing your number,
heading towards your office,
and calling your name when I come home

I find myself straightening your toothbrush,
puffing your pillow,
and telling you to turn the lights off

I find myself
looking at your empty side of the bed and thinking "oh he's up early"

I believe its called a force of habit



But my God,

Am I dreadful
of losing the force
enclosing me
in my so-called
"prison"

Dreadful
of escaping this prison

for beyond its walls,
you are no longer here

You can't put all of your happiness
into one person. They are
temporary. They do not last
forever.

Things break.

The dependence is a thin line that stitches
your heart to the object,
struggling to not slack,
and one day,
like she broke you,
you will crash backward.
