Untitled

I wrote every single word about you
But you never even knew
You dared not peer your eyes
Into the stormy skies
So I took you out of those worlds
Replaced you word by word
Till I wrote about someone new
Someone who wasn’t you.

The Things I’d say when I’m Missing Someone

I’d miss your eyes
The pair of northern stars that light my way
The pair that I can find in the darkened times.
I’d miss your voice
That soothes the maddening sounds
And calms the storms

I’d miss your warmth
That clings on when you are not near
That is craved the most when it completely disappears

But most of all
I’d miss you
Who contains every inch and every dose that keeps me here.

Stars

Fifteen meteors.
I counted fifteen meteors that showered above tonight.
I counted fifteen stars that fell from the upper skies
And all of them I wished for you
The best you can be
And the best for only thee.

I don’t want someone to see right through me
I want someone to look at all of my inner workings
And fall for each and every one of them.

Starry Night Sky

I wanted to touch the starry night skies
And pull you from there
Because every time I looked up
I was attracted by the magnificence you left there
                In the stars
You left your soul there
You left your heart there
                And I so desperately wanted to hold onto that again
                Hopping this time it won’t float up into the starry night sky.

Romanticism

In this era
Romanticism is dead
For a simple “I Love You” sent through text
Can get anyone’s heart pumping
Rather than someone going the distance
To knock on your door
To tell you those lovely words.

End

This world was built upon promises
But formed upon lies.
These countries were built upon beliefs
Yet formed upon deception
We elude ourselves to what was true
What was meant to be
We blind ourselves from everything

When the world falls apart
It’s because we broke those promises
We drained the meaning right out,
And turned them into empty words
We destroyed the beliefs of many
And continued to deceive the whole.

When the world is torn apart
We already know who to blame
For when we point fingers at one another
Three are always pointing back

When everything collapses
We have no one to blame but ourselves
