I don't want to play
this guessing game

Tell me you love me
Show me how much

Make my soul sing
In its longing for you

Make my bones ache
For each minute spend apart

Make my heart bleed
To hear you say my name

For how else will I ever repay
This debt of being in love with you

#longing #love

To let go

I am not strong enough today

But I will be, someday

To let go

A piece of my heart

That once belonged to you

#let #go

Like I do

Do I miss you?
You ask

Why would I be jealous
my love

Of the light
that touches your face

Of the ground
beneath your feet

Of the traffic
outside your window

Of all the places
your fingers linger

Of the food
you taste

Of the words
you write

Of the tunes
you hum

Of the air
you breathe

And every thought
In your mind

That isn't me

Away

Why is it then

When I miss you the most

I want to run away to a place so far away

Where even the stars can't find me

#stars #run #away #miss #you

She thought she knew

She sat by the vast river
Watching the sun go down
Mind at peace with her heart
And she smiled
How she thought she knew
What love was
Till she met him
And her soul shook
In a silent quake
And a storm raged inside her heart
Why hadn't she expected this?
Why was she so unprepared
For something that seemed
Only as certain as death

Tired

I wish this noise would turn into silence
This light into dark

Your arms into my home
Where I can crumble quietly

And fall asleep
To the rhythm of your heart

Cant wait for the week to end - I feel exhausted - sigh!

Lie to me sweetly

Lie to me sweetly then

If the truth won't last

I still hate lies

But I was never so afraid of the truth
