I just wish,
when you look into my eyes,
and tell me you love me,
I could believe you...

when i tell you to leave,
why does it hurt me more?

when i tell you to go,
why don’t you stay and fight?

when i tell you not to speak to me again,
why does it take days to see what would happen if you did?

are you listening...?

When you look into my eyes,
What do you see?
The pain, the sadness, the misery?

When you look into my eyes,
Do you see who I am?
A girl as innocent and fragile as a lamb?

When you look into my eyes,
Can you see the rest of your life?
Or will you draw me in, then stab me with a knife?

When I look into your eyes,
Why does it seem like a game?
a wild beast to tame,
a narcissist boy amongst the same,
Especially when you so easily forget my name...

My love is just a display,
Broken pieces glued together form half a heart,
I was never easy-no.
The love I gave you didn’t match,
Suddenly you drew weary and I was thrown out the hatch,
Left alone in a sea of tranquility,
Alone in the gaze,
This is not the first time someone has made me faze,
Free into the night lonely souls walk the streets,
Lost amongst the others I am no different,
My heart only beats.
I knew this wasn’t right,
For all my efforts must always ignite.
I throw my heart into the trash
For one day I wish, this time wasn’t the last.

I forgot how happy it made me to see your name light up my phone,
The butterflies in my stomach,
The thought that maybe just this once you didn’t want to be alone,

The numbing in my face,
telling me how long you’ve been gone,
and all along maybe you knew,
I just couldn’t keep up the pace.

The lies, the love,
all of its lost,
Vanished into nothing like a magic trick,
And when you lie that’s what it cost.

Could roses cover the night skies,
in search of new beginnings?
                          
But all are found is lost followers,
mending their time with imaginary tales.
                          
Toe-to-toe against the wall,
the waves come crashing down.
                          
Breeze takes in light,
catching a glimpse of the stars above,
but something just doesn’t feel right.

The deep dark dream of eternity,
Awoke!
Add rings to an old tree; relief

New sounds, no sounds
New world, no world
New surroundings, no surroundings.

New uniform to blend out old
Arctic night among the northern stars
The deep dence caves along the forest
The base of new life springing up
From the roots below

He comes and goes however
He is always watching
Moments of suffering turn silent
Moments of joy turn rustic
Time has never had a chance
We have never had a say,
Much as an even number of grains of sugar is poured

He is powerful.
He is strong.
He brings misery and despair.

And yet,
We embrace him.
