Lovesick for the sound of you
Scuffing up the floor
Waiting for your return
The candles burning out
The rich scent of food dissipating
Into the darkest night
Loneliness creeping back on home
Keeping me up all night
Wind howling beside me
Keeping me company
Foolishly knowing
You left for good

A funny feeling stirs inside
A memory of you
That intoxicates me
With a sense of dread
And a warm sensation spreads throughout my body
A funny feeling
Where I remember who you were
And how I was smitten with you
Starstruck
By a million words you said

It scares me
Because I have grown accustomed to your manners
The way you talk
How you break into a big grin
When your passion heats up
It scares me
Because you tell me good morning
And good night
And breaking out of that habit would **** me
I scare myself
Because I keep falling in love with you
Day after day, night after night

Follow me into the unknown
Join in the underground society
Where the lonely hearts dwell
We drink until love is real
And whenever our love potion dwindles
It will be replenished with generosity
We have no need to surface above
To mingle with cloud nine lovers
We like to sleep in the darkness
Where are own lonely hearts can never be hurt by sunlight

I can finally say
How much I love you
It has been many years
Since I have known you

You have rescued me from drowning
Drowning, in my sorrow
You have saved me
Saved me from a life of emptiness

I can think of the days
Where we fought
And I won by default
But I won your friendship

How I cherish that more than life
I could admire you
For your many talents
And your passion, your strength

I can tell you
I have always felt safe
With you nearby
Knowing you could protect me from dangers

You held my hand
My God, I could feel how warm and strong you were
Love, rushing through your veins
But you stayed silent

You smiled from afar
But I could tell how you wanted to be so close
Fighting in the distance
But still, you wrote me when the opportunity arrived

I love you
My God, how I loved you being my hero
You never had to fight for my love
It was always there

I know now I love you
And I am sorry
For how long I have waited
But know that
I love you

Liquor lips
With a caustic tongue
Kiss a whiskey mouth
Till the sadness leaves
Indulge in finishing bottles
Leaving only a faint whiff

To wander through a hazy world
Leaving trails of vanishing footprints
The crying game over with
T’was all for nothing
Glad to have met the devil on this personal trek

Shedding a shell
Awakening new senses
Going to a deeper high
Where finding a voice is ordinary but surreal
Peace and terror in this future life beginning

Going deeper into the fog
Playing melodies as the veil lifts
Walking through the same streets
Never felt so good in this same old suburban *******
Never felt this high as before

Love me gentle
Be careful of what you say
Love me delicately
I break easily
Whisper innocently
All through the night
Keep close
As long as you can
Love me

To love
To the greatest joy and sorrow ever felt
To the happiness and sadness known to humans
To love

Falling in love with you
Like a movie melodrama
Dancing across the beach
Sand between our toes

Asking for love
Wanting love
No better love than yours
No one compares to you

Drinks and cocktails
Waiting for the DJ to play our song
My love
Life would be meaningless without you

So here we are
You're holding my hand
Asking me to love you for all of eternity
Indestructible love

To love
To bringing sweet bliss
To never losing hope
To having our love shine

To feel love
To a night to remember
To saying I love you, too
To the kisses and cuddles

To you
To me
To us
To love

Your name refuses to leave my head
It is bittersweet on my tongue
I sigh your name all night long
Your laugh still lingers in my dream
Your smile makes my heart flutter
Your kindness makes me weep
Your love warms me
The way you say my name
Makes me stumble
No one says it like you do
It has been that kind of day
Where you haunt me
From far away

Nostalgic for winter days
The chic look of a well dressed man
The coldness that made one long for a hot coffee
The dreary birthday
Where the prized gift
Was a winter scarf
To keep the neck you loved to kiss warm

I hear the sound of your heart
Falling apart
I'm the cause
That makes it break
Your tears
Are endless
And I cannot apologize enough

I hear the sound of my heart
Breaking through
To somewhere new
Where you cannot see
And I can be free

Crying after these years
Love floats away
Over the edge
Knowing we could never swim back to shore
I hear the sound of our hearts
Falling
Into someone new

A wallflower
Hears the cries of others
Responds accordingly
An act he knows how to play

And when he gets home
He fills the wine glass
To the brim
Overflowing

The lonely bed beckons
The soft red blanket
Feeling like a second skin
Underneath it all

Hiding from friends
Quite and desolate
Wave of sadness crashes
I float in the sea

I met a dumb boy a year ago today
And it feels me with memories that are bad and good
It is now that I find myself alone
With anger and sadness and bittersweet happiness
Because a lot can change in a short amount of time
You can lose track of the other
And not bother to call or text or leave a message
You can hope that one day
He will appear at your door
But he won't
You will find no one knocking
Because he did not come
The three knocks were in your head
The sound of him was your imagination
I listened to the revival of a holy ghost
Imagining you dancing around
Silly now, how I love the folk sound
Because you loved it
There was no we
It was only you and I
We dance alone
I met a boy a year ago today
And he left a long time ago
