Black is dark
Black is deep
Black is something in your sleep
Never seeing
Never walking
Always aching from denial
Darkness here
Darkness there
Darkness around me everywhere
Eerie silence in the night
Black can be quite a fright
Black is bitter
Black is cold
Black is something truly bold
Black is dark
Black is deep
Black is SOMEONE in my sleep

I love you for you,

For all the love you give me

And for your kindness which protects me.


I admire you,

For the braveness and kindness

That keep me safe no matter what's around us.


You inspire me,

Every day and night

To create more and never give up a fight.


I’m attracted to you,

In all aspects and forms

And will always be thankful to the odds.


Thank you for you,

As I feel so blessed

For the love and joy you made me possess.


We are one with the Soul

One with the Universe

One in our love that shines in the darkness.

I'm a tea-boy. You're a coffee-girl.
I leave my tea bags in for so long
that the steam-water turns heavy

and black

like the coffee you love. But
you takes yours with milk.


...


I don't.
Little things.

Soul dressed up in a devil suit,
ate too much of the forbidden fruit,
painful tears from eyes too dry,
seek my solace in a bottle of rye

aint no use in praying for rain
when all you get is a fist full of pain
hitch a ride and run for the hills
safety found in a bottle of pills

I remember back, to the time when I was numb.
All the way back to one of the darkest times in my life,
I remember the face of the boy who shined through my darkness.
I remember the first person to make me feel again.
It was one of the most excruciating things I'd done... feeling again.
You were like the ocean, and I, a grain of sand.
It felt like you ripped me out of my comfortably miserable little beach
and swept me out into your sea and proceeded to drown me.
But you had no idea of the effect you had, you were just being the sea.
I remember the first time I met you, my gaze swept right past.
And then you spoke.
You made me laugh, and it hurt to laugh but it felt so right.
Even on my darkest days, you'd be there to make sure I could smile again.
You'd always do everything you could to pull me out of my pit.
You became my best friend and I fell so hard, oh how I fell.
That's what hurt.
I wasn't allowed to love you as I'd wanted to.
You had your girlfriend and she was so sick and she needed you.
I watched you, dying to make her better.
You didn't sleep. You barely ate.
I noticed the etches on your wrist and my heart shattered.
There was nothing I could do for the boy I loved.
I wish there had been something I could have done for you and for her.
It's been years since I last saw you.
I still think about you all the time.
I don't think I could ever forget you.
The one I couldn't have.
The one I should've had.
We would have been so good.
It's funny..
I know you loved me too.
Things I'll never reveal.
