Love is a dream
Alex J Jun 2015
Love is a dream so warm and safe
A perfect land and a perfect place
But no matter how hard i try
To live my dream, again i'm denied
If theres good in the world i beleive that it missed me
If love is for real then that girl never kissed me
Whenever i try to explain i confuse
Whenever i try to retain it i loose
My heart flows like water I beg for it to clense
My words carry dreamers beliefs to the end
But the tears that fall from my eyes
never put rainbows above in the skies
It's frustrating the waiting, the hopeing and doubt
Love is a dream that i cant live without
For never to love is a loss in itself
For my dream i would sacrifice everything else
So this is the cry to the tears that i hide
No-one to love and nowhere to confide
My loneliness clothes like a gown
Forever my smiles have been turned into frowns
I love you, I need you, Theres so much to say
But to me these lines are far from cliche
If you cant comprehend just pretend
But words such as these i could never defend

Teardrop
Alex J Jun 2015
There's no letter left behind
No words that haunt your mind
Emptiness has filled your heart with shame
When the storms begin to pass
And the clouds move on at last
There's always one more teardrop in the rain

So you wander through your home
Struggling to hold your own
Trying to block those feelings that remain
When the skies begin to clear
And the sun should reappear
There's always one more teardrop in the rain

Add them up as they fall
Does one more tear make any difference at all?
One by one, we count them all and when we're done
Nothing seems to change
There's always one more teardrop in the rain

For You I Live
Alex J Mar 2015
The first that runs..
The shadow that burns
The falling sky that turns
Our lives poking fun
Are you really seconds to none?
Cards stacked against one
A new era begun
Ultimate truth redone
Death outthought outrun
What's still left undone
The nature can't deny
Outlived...
Outcry...
Countless times I retry
The reach to the sky
Breathing a sigh
Something more than meets the eye
Not even my soul would deny...
I belong to you!
Darkness fades into
Light that streams into
Pitch black this heart breaks into
Pieces that says your name
Burning old flames
Taking an aim
At the love game
Forget and forgive
For you I live

Make it all burn...
Alex J Mar 2015
Life can be hard, I know that it is
Sincerely I can't forget the pain that comes within.
I feel empty inside, heart broken to pieces
No one's there, no one to help you fix this
I try to take all in, break all in, heart's in tremors and quakes all in.
I conceal everything from dawn to dust
Maybe patience is the only thing that I'd trust.
I'm all alone with myself, from these feelings I run
If I could only have someone to make it all burn
One of my first writes :P

Try again
Alex J Mar 2015
Loneliness on the road
Dreams are broken, black clouds are formed
Happiness is gone, even the shadow is lost
Struggling to hold it together, the life gets tossed
The glass of shattered dreams are piercing the eyes
Darkness all alone, was waiting in disguise.
Someone was here, someone is now
No one was there, it's only you to be found.
Wake up and walk away, don't ask how...
Run back, try again all that's allowed!

— The End —
