Mysidian Bard Dec 2016
When our young days are far behind
No mountains left to climb

Will you look back across the hills
And see me standing still

When our eyes meet, it's understood
I would follow if I could

But I'm tied down by memories
That I could never leave

You'll fade from sight, eclipsed by light
Of a path you follow true

But I'll stay here for the both of us
To remember me and you
Move on or hold on
To the lives that we once knew
But I'm staying here
Mysidian Bard Dec 2016
Crumpled up paper
Strewn across the bedroom floor
Someday you will know
Mysidian Bard Nov 2016
Every tear we cry
Burns away the fears inside
Our flames grow stronger
Mysidian Bard Nov 2016
Here on your doorstep
Am I to bid you farewell?
This cold Autumn eve
Mysidian Bard Nov 2016
I am the sun
Who fills your world with light
You are the dark
That fades my world to night

But I see through
You can't blind my sight
You once were
Shining just as bright
A poem for my dad. I never understood why you were so ******* me, but I know now. You were always pushing me to be better because you wanted me to accomplish the things in life that you never did. You saw the fire in my eyes that once burned within you.
Mysidian Bard Nov 2016
You say we're strangers
But countless times you and I
Met along the way
Mysidian Bard Nov 2016
The light will get in
Through my many cracks and tears
My imperfection
