the morning breeze is like
a whisper
a tickle
a comfort
from your love
the afternoon blaze is like
a passion
a lust
a need
to see your love
the evening bliss is like
a warmth
a comfort
a sense of relaxation
in the arms of the one you absolutely adore

when someone you love
is gone
you want to say you still love them
but can you love someone
who isn't there
who you can't
talk to
hold onto
or rely on
not imaginary
just gone
can you love someone
who will never return

If you could
undo what is done
would you
what would change
what would stay
It may be for the better
all the things that have been done
for there is that saying
everything happens for a reason
but what if the reason isn’t worthy of what’s been done
what if whats been done wasn’t fair
wasn’t right
wasn’t meant to be
why can’t there just be a pause
for people to think things through
to realize there is something better
maybe that’s what we’re supposed to be doing now
but it’s so easy to blame others
so easy to make it someone else’s problem
so easy to not take control
but its time to grow up
not to forget
or to remember constantly
just to not confirm it
look down
be beside yourself
be unknown to how you feel
to face the fact that sometimes you shouldn’t know how you feel,
and that feeling in itself is how you should feel

I want you back
but your gone for good
I want to turn back time
but my watch is broken
and what would be the difference
I want the time to stop for a moment
but I would be too busy to notice
I want the memories to become real
but memories are just that
things that you look back on and not return to
I want you with me
but how would we be now
I want to know what happened
but you’re not here to tell the tale
I want you back
but your simply gone
and all I have now are the memories
I want all this
but its all too selfish

we weren’t supposed to
but we loved
I wasn’t supposed to
but I let you down
you weren’t supposed to
but you pulled me back
you weren’t supposed to
but you had me
and then you left

we were so young
we laughed so loudly
we cried in a whisper
we had secrets kept in our hearts
we loved
we cared
we were so young

shadows
showing either the past
or the future
for a split second you can feel the rush of the present
but in all
we worry more about what is coming
or what is lingering
the great thing about looking to the future
is working towards it
the bad thing about looking back to the past
is knowing you can't change it
no matter how much you work
so keep those shadows close
and don't look to far ahead
or behind
and of course enjoy the split second you have of
the present
