the sun touches my skin
warming everything
except for my heart;
dear moon, it’s yours to take.

This morning, i was touched by an angel.
Then later, kissed by the devil.
The thing is...
They both felt good!
That time again
Leaves have fallen
Gathered and clustered
Curled in lane corners their
Lifeless backs to the curb
Still too slape
And limp to crunch
Lying and waiting as
Winter creeps closer
Night by night
In the darkening months.
It finds me first
In the space beneath the lungs
A rapidly cycling movement
Trickles down, seeps like a sponge

The pressure lifts my breath up now
Faster
Faster
In and
Out

The feeling I have punches my gut,
And claws its way straight to the mind.

I wish what I’d found weren’t so devastating.
I wish I didn’t find it this time.
I never thought I’d say this but I want you back
I know I didn’t love you right and I’m so sorry
It’s just that my brain just wasn’t thinking right
I just wasn’t okay
But now I’m in a good state of mind
And I’m doing fine
But you’re always on my mind
So please give me a second chance I won’t waste your time
I know I have before but I swear not this time
We can be beautiful
We can be amazing
We can be the power couple
And we can be blazing
Just give me a second chance because I want you back
Please give me one last chance...
i want  you
i want every piece of you
i want your bad morning breath
i want your ruffled bed head
i want your worries
i want your fears
i want you baby can't you see
i'll take you for you and you take me for me

I can wait
if it means I will have you by morning
I can wait
if the stars will birth you non-broken
I can wait
if the tears I wept will flow like a blissful river
I can wait
if the roof we built will be covered in feathers
I can wait
if our souls up in the sky will be hypnotized
I can wait
if my existence will make you mesmerized
We fell like the leaves
I blew away with the wind
a warm heart only believes
that love will never end

i should have known
there would come a day
when winds would blow
and birds would fly away

a bare branch heaves
swinging in the wind
indian summer deceives
the cold is setting in
