I lay awake in bed
Unable to put my thoughts at rest
They argue with each other - noises in my head
Why do they do it to me
When I'm so fatigued
I do not have the strength anymore
Just wish I could shut the door
The door that let's them out
Makes me wana scream and shout
I have no control over them
My mind can't seem to comprehend
Why is it only at night
These thoughts come out to fight

In the dullness of the day
I feel a sense of belonging
A yearning happiness
Unfulfilled by the sun shining
Is it weird to feel this way?
To find comfort in the dark and dull

In the calmness of the sea
I see nothing but you
You capture my every sense
Your composure, as calm and breathtaking as the waves kissing the sand
A tinge of roughness but care not to destroy its beauty
Your voice, oh, like a marvelous symphony in my ear
Each word taken in deliciously in bated breaths
My eyes look upon you with devouring intent
Your lips, your smile could bring the changing tides to a halt
The ball of fire in the sky dulls in comparison to your aura
One touch from you - I am a barren land filled with springs transforming into a flowing river
I flourish in your presence - in your absence I'm desolate

You are an undiscovered gem
Rare and beautiful
Your worth does not depreciate
Just because people didn't find you yet

You were born to live...
Not just exist

There's so much I want to say to you but when I'm with you
All I have is words unspoken
