Shadows

Do shadows ever go away,
When darkness hits us do they fade,
Or do they stay there hung in silence,
Blinded by the nights pure violence,
Do shadows ever see the sun,
When given light and told to run,
The shadow that still lives in me,
It craves the dark but fights to see.

Every night
when the moon
appears in the skies,
I’ll not look away
as I gaze in
your eyes

For nothing compares
to the beauty I see,
when your eyes
cast the light
of the moon
back on me
Her eyes are incredibly beautiful.

Time in a bottle

I love this song so so much. I just wanted to share x
Jim Croce - Time in a bottle

If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day till eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then
Again, I would spend them with you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do, once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with

If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty, except for the memory of how
They were answered by you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do, once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with

Destroy Me
 Jun 2016 LW

Destroy me softly in the dead of night.
Rip apart my thoughts with gentle words
and steady hands.

Do not question yourself,
I promise not to protest in return.

Ask me where my words are hidden,
how I bury them
and dig to them without pause so that my muscles won't have time to push you back.

Unearth my dreams,
ransack my heart until we are both covered in blood and truth.

I don't care how much it hurts,
turn my mind inside out and
force
every
thought into your palms.

Pry open those rusty hinges
because heaven knows I am just as clueless as you are to what lies behind them.

And I know, I know, I know
that what is underneath my skin is raw and pink.

Tell me how it tastes.

Scraps

I searched for you my whole life.
Ripping people open to see if I could recognize you inside them.
None of them were you.
The day I found you, I could barely hold on.
I had scraps where slabs should be.
I hadn’t realized they were ripping me apart too.
