I'm so sorry if I sound like a downer

if you met me in person you'd sure be surprised

I sound very sad, but I'm just not a frowner

no one in my life who doesn't tell lies

poems and feelings not so sweet

so out on my pages, I scribble online

but promise me one day when we meet

you'll see I'm little miss sunshine
heres just a little bit about me:) i love when people message me questions about my work and i would love to get to know all of you... so heres the real me. im free to talk whenever

this is the last time
I lose sleep over you

the last time
my dreams don't come true

cause I'm done
making other people happy

stop stealing my joy
you don't have power over me

I'm giving you a yellow page
so tape it to your face

this is my final notice
the rest of you I erase

I always thought, "he'll notice me."
        
        "don't look his way" day after day

"play hard to get" our lips have met

          "Keep your distance" see no difference

"live your life right in front of him
           and drive him crazy" this won't faze me; lies

Little did I know
he didn't care
and he still doesn't

               except for this time I do...this time I notice you

I love the way you look at me when the worlds quiet and our eyes meet,
or when you slowly tuck my hair away as your graze my cheek
I've heard you whisper to me when you think I'm asleep, saying everything you won't admit.
Kissing me with affection, not just cause of attraction....
I feel it in your lips, your need for me, but you'll only admit it when I'm asleep.

Stars' eyes once gazed upon us here
-- Transfixed in place with flecks of light
Moon glow washes us in her liquid pearl
-- Chills running down a quiver of flight
Warmth rising up like a tropic sunrise
-- Flowing thru our veins like magma
Secluded deep in a world of our own
-- where the world can't find us
Our whispers restore the stars' gaze

....we are finally home
Collab with Slate Blue:) we worked on this one together... hopefully, more in the future
