Stars

She walked into the road to stare at the stars
I asked if it was safe and she said you watch for cars
20 odd minutes floated on by
And all I did was stare into her eyes

Cause oh she shines
Oh she shines so bright
Oh she shines
She shines but she’ll never be mine

Like a warm winter fire her smile cures my soul
It burns with desire each day that unfolds
As we lie in bed together that laugh pure as gold
I’ll want for forever but a fools all I know

Cause oh she shines
Oh she shines so bright
Oh she shines
She shines but she’ll never be mine

I’ll walk forever these nights all alone
3 in the morning just dropped her back home
And even if I can’t be Hers in the end
I will settle for being her friend

Cause oh she shines
But its all in my mind
Oh She shines but she’ll never be mine

a cigarette*

That bang, A shower, His scream, An hour

Watching abuse to a mans willpower.

A hug, To bed, I’m numb, He bled

Tyler’s face no longer was red
Became as pale as the moon when it ebbed
He was destroyed by our friend being dead.

Atop of the roof,
conversations so high
The smell a reminder
Of those who had died.

Grey in my lungs,
Grey in his eyes
One cigarette left
Our last tearful goodbyes

Actors

It felt so familiar, it felt so strange,
it felt wrong with you but not cause of the stage,
Back then the act felt only for me
But now it’s you leading so tentatively.

An act, a kiss, a flirt, pure bliss
All of my love is a part of this,
My love on yours, something impure
Will push to the precipice of what I am sure.

My body so bare so incomplete
Makes me aware of our heartbeat,
My soul will be yours the first time they meet
Our love for once will be allowed to complete

— The End —
