Look into my eyes,
And tell me about your dreams.
No matter how silly you think they are,
They will always be beautiful to me.
Let me be the one you call,
When you're up late at night,
Because you can't sleep,
And I'm the one you choose to talk to.
Make me the one you come home to,
Whether it's been a long day,
Or a short one.
I love you.
With a passion that could fill a thousand lifetimes,
That could bring death back to life,
With the dedication of history's greatest armies,
And the depth of the lowest point in the deepest sea.
I just want to be the one you fall asleep next to,
and the one you wake up to in the morning.
So much has been going on. This is the most predominate thing on my mind right now.
Stop infecting me
With your false feelings
Of love and hope for us
I am no longer under
Your wretched control
I am a wildflower,
And you are the fire
That thought it could destroy me
I still go to our favorite spot
The one where you kissed me for the first time,
Where you told me you loved me for the first time,
Where you promised me the world, forever.
That one spot, where you hurt me for the first time.
Where our passion fueled conversations turned dark
Where you finally gathered the nerve to tell me to my face
I don't love you anymore.*
Yeah, I still go to our favorite spot,
Even if it's not you I bring with me anymore.
I almost forgot about you today. A sizable
spill of coffee shot me to my feet, holding
up my mocha-soaked notebook like an
unclaimed child. A dozen eyes found
me at once---a security measure meant
to bring shame to a klutz breaking his
social contract. Attention for **** living.
When the pain receded I stood in place
and imagined you brushing your teeth.
I love you just the way you are,
but you don't see you like I do.
You shouldn't try so hard to be perfect.
Trust me, perfect should try to be you.
Her
Deep in the waters of the beautiful coral reefs are where you'll find her.
She doesn't like to be seen
But when the tides are right,
She will reveal herself to you.
*She is the most enchanting mermaid of the salty sea
