Waves upon the sand 10w
Like a footprint in the sand
We will fade away
305 · Oct 2016
Complete opposite
When you left
I was lost
Though I gained freedom
The saddest thing about all of this is I know you still love me.  Your eyes say it when I look into them.  The way you run up to me to tell me about your day at work.  I smile too but it's only a mask now. You are now my past

Hidden but now revealed
We flirted but you were taken
Our connection fueled a secret
That secret we couldn't keep
We decided it wasn't worth it
Not wanting to cause us pain
Letting the years grow between us

We are friends with a past
Both single and ready to mingle
Our glances always drifting back
Locking eyes we took a chance
One that won't be clouded by deception
Exposing us to the world

Lost in the dark (10w)
Like two ships in the night
We are lost forever

Unlike last time
Trying to do the same thing
Expecting a different outcome
Over and over again
One thing is different now
I won't be there when he breaks your heart
You're on your own to put the pieces
Back together

Split hearts
Your heart belongs to him
His heart belongs to another
My heart belonged to you.
You pushed me away
He is pushing you away
In the end you're alone

I would've given you everything
He will give you heartache
Now you have neither of us
You told me to leave you alone
To give you all the space you need
That space has now become a galaxy
Each day memories of us fade
Into the vast emptiness of space
You've lost me and I'm not sure if you'll ever be able to find me again.  I'm not trying to find you

The future (10w)
I do not know
If I could love her
**Again
255 · Sep 2017
That day
As the sun begins to crest the horizon,
Your eyes adjust to the rays of the new day.
You only have two options as you lay there.  The fewest that you'll have to ponder over that day, but the most important, Shall you wake up, or will you resist it holding on to the past.
Know though just one will reign, fighting what has already occurred will inevitably fail, accept the future, take that first step, and know you gave your all the day before. Always remember the best things in life come from a chance, a leap, a prayer.  It's blind faith you're making the right decisions. Will you let fear and failure rule your life, or accept it and know when you close your eyes at night you gave it everything you had.  Will you let it dictate your life, your happiness, your future. It's your choice... What will it be?

Momentary past
The sweet remembrance
The touch of your delicate skin
The scent of you
For just a moment I thought you were here
I reached over for you as I woke up
It all seemed so real
As fast as you surrounded me it all disappeared
Once again alone in the darkness
Only the memories to hold
I slip into another dream

She might never know
It's the way my heart races when I see her
The happiness she brings to my life
My hidden walls she demolished
Releasing my hidden self
The things she exposed
Were the feelings I long forgot
She never knew I was hurting
Never knowing I was lost
203 · Sep 2016
Goodbye
Love the life you live
Forget about the rest
The past can be forgotten
The future isn't set

— The End —
