I can't understand how everyone sees
Clear blue skies at which they wish to gaze
Under its trance and relax wasting the day
I can only see sapphire skies seducing
The clouds to willingly depart the day
And I need to rush to get up and run
To love and to conquer and live
So that I may come back and sing for all
A few lullabies to console your longing
For the hopes and dreams that you couldn't
Follow while you were staring at the sky

I refuse to lay around with all the rest
Viewing serene blue skies and conjuring up
Endless dreams and make believes
Because all I see are sapphire skies
Burning the time in a day with intensity
Melting away my dreams simultaneously
I must rush out into the world and experience
And accomplish the aspirations I had
Then I can return and sing lullabies
About all the beautiful things I remember
So that you can end your sobs
When you think of all the time you wasted

You see blue skies and day dream
I see sapphire skies and act and react
My lullabies will speak of the journey
The destination and the reward
Your state of dreaming will be
Manipulated by your remorse

I walked
Down the stairs,
Deciding
That the elevator
Would take
Too long
And just be
A waste
Of my time

The day was done
Nothing else
Was left
For me to do

All I needed
To do
Was go home

I stopped by
The receptionist's desk

With brown eyes
And red hair,
She smiled at me
And I smiled back

Those beautiful glasses
In front of those wonderful eyes

I stopped to wonder
How I hadn't noticed her before

It's probably
Because I've been busy

I don't have time
To mingle

But maybe once
I could take some time
To talk
With this wonderful woman
Behind this wooden desk

It could be nice
To spend time
With someone else,
But I'll never know
If I never try

I always like to imagine
But some times it's better
To live it

You somehow thought that you could use our friendship,
Our friendship I had given a lot up for,
To tell others, in essence, how I was wrapped around your finger
And if you like the feeling of someone following you around
I would suggest buying a puppy
I normally don't sub poem, but you know what. I'm kind of hurt so I'm going to use this account for what is should be used for, that is getting out my feelings.
I woke up to my girlfriend
And all the things that she does
As she got ready I stopped and stared
Fell even harder just because

She is so amazing
With drop dead gorgeous looks
When she turns to smile at me
Not as much beauty in a thousand books

I've never been so deep
And felt this kind of love
As I rise so steep
Into the clouds above

I could not image
A life where she's not there
I know a life without her
Would leave me torn and bare

Her name like the flower
Grows so wild and free
Aslong as im beside her
I smile because she chose me
Did you see the stars
As they shone on you
Vivid like a thousand scars
Inside the darkest blue
Did you see the hero

But that hero was you
Onward for people feel
When music becomes true
In the end you're never gone
Eternally remembered in a song

Take away my sight
I no longer want to see
I want to be blind to this destruction in the wake  

Take away my ears
I no longer want to hear
I cannot bear to hear the sounds of sobs racking bodies

Take away my tongue
I no longer want to taste
I do not want to taste your sweetness upon my mouth anymore  

Take away my nerve endings
I no longer want to feel
The scratchieness of your face the velvet of your hands

Take away my smell
I no longer want you scent to cling
The one of your cologne and musk of you and you alone
  
Take it all away
For the love of God please!
Make me blind, deaf, numb, and dumb
just take it all away.  make me just a shell
Not to long to go now
Til I can be with her again
No words to explain how
When we spend our time,zen

Its like a form of meditation
To have you in my arms
Your presence though it does excite
My mind it also calms

All my troubles float away
Look into each others soul
But for now I shall wait
The need for you takes its toll
I have spent some time now
Learning to read expression
Never knew how to take emotion
It caused such great depression

You see I'm not quite normal
High functioning,abstract,weird
I think I have said too much
As I twist more knots into my beard

Its odd being on the outside
When others seem so social
I don't know why I voice my flaws
Must be the liberation of being vocal
Little girl, let's take a walk
You and I, a little tete a tete, yep we need to talk.  

Little girl, such dreams you have
They don't play out they way you wish they had

Oh little girl, such mountains you want to climb
It'll be ok. You'll slip and fall but reach the peaks in time

Little girl, please look at me and see
You won't end where you think you should
You'll end up where you need to be...
Wouldn't it be nice to be able to talk to our younger selves?
