I am full of you.
every action, every thought,
reminds me of you
youre all I want,
though you don't see.
I love that youre my best friend
but I want more
love best friend bestfriend love unrequited
hurt
Take these words and hold them dear
as proof that once I lingered here
within these hallowed written walls
that speak the fate of one and all.

Do not mourn me when I'm gone
heal your heart and carry on.
In sorrow ne'er my heart did dwell
for I was blessed to know you well.

Place no flowers, lay no stone
for barren earth is not my home
no marker there to bare my name
no mourners heads bowed deep in shame.

Shed a solitary tear,
then walk in light and never fear
as darkness creeps across the land
I will be there to hold your hand.

I don't know if what I'm feeling is right
Staying up late, thinking of what this is
What we are, and what we could become

I dream of you, dreaming of me.
Laying in the grass late at night,
Listening to music and pouring our hearts out.

These things I imagine, and will never see.
You let go before I was ready,
Idle, I sit waiting for your return.

Lost, like a balloon in the sky.
Free, but needing something
Anything to hold on to.

I've lost my way.

You talk to me,
Light, floating
And I can breathe

I crave your attention,
Needed your love.
Wanted your help.
I'm better.

But I wasn't enough
And I can't be.
I can't be there for you
If I'm not here for myself

I screamed that I was alone
You didn't hear my cry.
Replaced, I'm lost
No one to tell

I craved your attention,
Needed your love.
Wanted your help.
I'm getting bad again.

I never meant to fall in love with you,
I would take it back if I could.
What I would give to feel nothing,
When I look into your sweet brown eyes.
To stop my heart from speeding up
When you walk into the room
To keep myself from staring
As you sleep, so close to me

We're just friends, I know
But I want to be so much more
I wish I could be all you need
But I can't even figure out what you want.
You're one of my best friends, and I love you
I wouldn't dare ruin that with my feelings
But, after over a year, you deserve to know
I'm just afraid of what you might say
"They warned me about drugs in the street, but never the ones with hazel eyes and a heartbeat."

I'm floating,
flying high
to stay close to you
but I know I'll crash

temporary escape
prete
Nding I don't seE** us
growing apart
i'm losing you

i ask you not to drink
you ask mE not to smoke
if you knew why I do
maybe you'D stop asking

scarred from mY past
yOu were my escape
losing yoU means losing myself
i'm not ready yet
