Grown up to fall like some
Timber bound trees
It may not be for you
but it's important to me
All that we feel
So undeniably
Cast away and ignored
Until winter turns spring

Above melting snow
we sit and we sing,
Waiting to see
What the future may bring
All while the snow
Bleeds under our feet
Only to find
No love underneath
Shay Moore Nov 2017
The Days turn to weeks
And the weeks become months
My calls are less frequent
As you never pick up
A waste of my time
A waste of my breath
I never get answers
Is your love but a stretch?
Shay Moore Nov 2017
If you haven't left
You won't arrive
If you haven't loved
You cannot cry
If you haven't lost
You cannot rise
If you haven't lived
How can you die?

Hello mister puppeteer
Just a lonely puppet here
My strings are tangled
Nothing intact
I truly need you
Something I lack

Hello mister puppeteer
Just the same old puppet here
I lie here broken
Bent out of place
Am I pleading
To empty space

Hello mister puppeteer
Just the unloved puppet here
My paint is chipping
My smiles cracked
You just hate me
Now that's a fact

Hello mister puppeteer
Just a dying puppet here
You have ignored me
Left me alone
Your true colors
Have really shown

Hello mister puppeteer
Just a happy puppet here
Soon pain will leave me
I'll be embraced
By the nothing
My grave awaits
Shay Moore Nov 2017
No sweeter smell than your perfume
my winters end and my springtime bloom
Full of love, my hope and joy
You have saved this once lost boy
To my lovely girlfriend
Shay Moore Nov 2017
Stale tap water on my counter
Oh my thoughts are all about her
Swallow pills with cups of pride
From my problems, I will hide
I wish to live and not to pine
But stolen hearts are never mine

— The End —
