Alice Baker Apr 2013
Strike a match and light a candle
If night becomes too dark
For our eyes to see hope
Perhaps our souls are dim
Alice Baker Mar 2013
And we step into our reality
The way mothers dive into age
With caution, regret, and resistance.
Alice Baker Mar 2013
Pleasure surges through my skin
It's electric, moving in waves
As his eyes dance over my body
Soaking my essence in.

Tonight, I am his.
Alice Baker Mar 2013
Promise me you'll never leave me
Promise me you mean what you say
Promise me the skies will clear.
Can you do that?
Can you love me like that?
Because I never could.
This was written a loooooonnnng time ago. I'm okay now.
Alice Baker Mar 2013
Morning comes like an secret lover
Peeking through my cracked blinds
Caressing my face with warm light
Filling me with joy
To think I once wished
To never see its face again
I'm alive.
Alice Baker Mar 2013
Sitting on the rooftop with you
Talking about all the things we'll never do
Dreaming of a better day
Dancing on the milky way

You sit and tell me your secrets
Asking if I'll keep it
Smile with those perfect lips
Inches away from a kiss

I wonder if you realize
How easy it is to fall into your eyes
Like grey skies and blue oceans
They set my mind in motion

I'll admit I'm falling for you
But only of you admit I've got you hooked too
Alice Baker Mar 2013
Can we pretend that the world
Isn't crashing down on us?
Cause I miss the simple days
Playing the children's games.

Can we pretend that the sky
Isn't spinning around our heads?
Cause I'm getting dizzy
Just thinking of what you said.

Feels like I'm
Losing you

Feels like I'm
Losing the only thing I knew

The world we shared
It's falling in

Oh no
My dear
Where did the love go?
the emotion in this song (yes its actually a song) is more relate able now than it's ever been to me before.

I wrote this way before I had ever known what love was.... and now I know better than ever how heartbreak feels. So yeah....
