They say home is where the heart is
Well then I haven't been home in years.
Because I have no idea
Where my heart lays

Time
Hayleigh Dec 2014
It goes forward
But never back
Try as you may
You won't make up for
that of it, you lack.
When it’s broken
It’s right twice a day
You cannot hold into it
You cannot take back what you say.
It can seem really quite long
And really quite short
You can be too busy to think
Or have enough
To be deep in thought.

You can wish and wish
But only if recorded
can you momentarily rewind
You can search the entire planet
But never enough of it
Shall you find.

Time makes memories
of everything.

Love like fire
Is a very beautiful and dangerous thing.

Love:
Giving someone your heart and trusting them not to tear it right out of your chest.

Your lucid skin stretched itself tight across your cold protruding bones
And you, you'd spent years building up and tearing down the homes
Others had helped you to construct in your heart
you'd spent decades practicing and perfecting the art
of destroying your foundations
and crying
as you watched yourself
fall apart

She ignited a fire in me
That I prayed
She would never extinguish.

No matter how lost I am
You always guide me home.

Little time for dreaming
Hayleigh Apr 2014
Body vs mind
we are trapped in time
between us
entwined and confined
because we are dreamers.

I miss you
Every second, of every hour, of every single ******* day,
And nothing i seem to do,
Takes that pain away.

Your mother
Twinkles in the pupils of your eyes
your father resonates
in the rivers that they cry.

Every time we kiss I taste happiness on my lips.

There's no better feeling than waking tangled up in her skin.

you were dust before i held you
and your memories were tainted
before we fell through
the cavities of each others hearts.

Your name is a forest fire,
ignited, erupting, each time it dances between
his lips
and tumbles down his chin

I wish i could capture the way you look at me
And cram it into a frame
So that i could wake up feeling
Beautiful, every single day.

I spent years building up a picture of you
A scenic view
Only to open my eyes and realise
The holes in the cracks
The gaps in the tracks
You'd fell through

— The End —
