Today was the the day,
I was given the news
"a body has been found"
"a body has been found"
at the base of the cliff.
First you're missing,
Now you're gone.
Why?
O why?
-But if only you could see,
how many people tried to find you
and how we all care.
If only you knew
If only you knew
Alas, it's too late

Oh how strange it is,
to remember how close we once were
I sometimes see things,
that make me think of you
But I must remember,
you're not there,
anymore.
My world collapsed when yours did.
But,
I'll still see things,
that remind me of you,
and still think of you,
And I text you when I do.
But I must remember,
you're no longer there,
to answer,
on the other end.

(I miss you, I miss you, I miss you.)
(I love you, I love you, I love you.)
(Always, always, always.)

I've  been touched by love
 far too many times,
now I just want 
to be held by it.

Do not compare pain.
Even though the strokes on your canvas
may look bigger than other strokes,
they are all drawn by,
the
same
weak
hands.

My eyes are lagoons
All you can see is ripples
though storms rage inside.

All that glitters is not gold
I stayed up to watch you go
I feel so much better now you’re not around
There’s no one to kick me while I’m down
No one to burn my bridges anymore
After all,
Rain is what makes the flowers grow

Keep your friends by your shoulder,
save your lovers in your heart.

Put your enemies behind your back
that's where they always are

This land means less and less
to me,
without you breathing through
it's trees.

The ones which we love first
Are the ones which we love always
But you shan't
Because
I was never your only
And neither your one
Or your first

All my thoughts sound better in my head.
All my dark thoughts are always there,
but come when I am in bed.

I wrote you a letter,
because in words
I can say it better.
I wish I could better articulate this feeling
in speech, instead of just thinking
so I wrote you a letter
alas now,
I'm feeling much better.

I ache for love I can never have
and for hands I have never held

Is there something I'm not seeing?
Something,
you're not telling me?
See,
I've been having trouble kneeling.
I don't know what to believe.

Oh I don't know
I just don't know!
Which way to turn.
Which way to face.
Which way to kneel.
I'm lost,
so very, very lost

I am an option
A possibility with which he could hold
But he wavers, uncertain

You’re not scared at all,
you’re just scared to fall

And that perhaps is how it goes;
his eyes burn holes in you like your 3 am cigarettes.
And you want him, you want him
But he is not yours to take.

You're aware of my existence,
but you don't know I'm here

You're the center of attention
You control the atmosphere.

For he is gold
But I dare not be bold
For he consumes my thoughts
But I am not in his at all

He said he could not do commitment
I wish I could be that exception
Curious to know what would unfold
Curious to know what it would feel
just to be held by you
just to be wanted by you and only you
But alas,
I am wiser to know
that this temporary would only break me in the end

I need to forget him
Like he forgot me.
