Your heartbeat is my favourite sound.
I can't get the rytham of your breathing out of my head.

To be close enough to hear this song is is a dream.

I only wish I could hear it just once!

I never knew being in love was learning how to be your friend.

I knever knew that life was learning to hold on to the end.

Loving you feels like the closest ill get to see the blue of a flame.

From the inside...

I used to only read factual books.
I gorged on their secrets about this world.
Fiction books only told of secrets in someone else's mind.
A glass door to a lonely fantasy world, forever closed.

But somehow I got caught up in my fantasies of you.
I read your favourite stories to understand your mind.
Now I wonder wistfully through a fictional abyss, longing for you.
And when this story comes to a close, you'll still be a glass door.

Forever closed.

To me you are floccinaucinihilipilification,
and as ugly as the word too...

'I don't want anyone to get hurt'
Your words as sharp as the knife you're twisting...

Some days,
life is like holding
an overflowing chest
of diamonds, rubies, and sapphires.  

Other days, I have the same chest,
but I just feel the weight
of a heavy box of rocks.
