In the dark, windy eve shines stark an orange light
Crisp and warm, caressing the wood curves gently; no fight,
The harsh burn breathes life to the embers, now shining bright,
A veil of smoke falls gently, hazy is the night.

Now traveling up the stock, whose polish: iridescent,
Up to the paling, rugged cheeks whose glow: florescent.
In the blue moonlight, his eyes shine pleasant,
Enjoying the taste, thought, life, love; vibrant.

Sitting in a weathered chair, creaking wood, rocking back to and fro,
He sat still, thoughtful, as pristine as wax, as delicate as snow.
Taking drags in the dark, the orange relax, a seedling starting to sow,
The stem broke the soil, words forming in his mouth, questions starting to sough.

He looked up from his stupor, sharp minded, clear and concise,
A solution to his problem, no matter its cause, had broken the ice.
Now he stood tall, elated, anxious, worried his words would suffice,
Then he sat back down, rewarded, confident his ideas would entice.
deep thought life thinking world smoking idea wonder curious comfort
remote the dream of love twas for thee
remote the dream of love twas for thee
its wonderland ne'er close to reach
its wonderland ne'er close to reach
to reach the remote dream of love  
ne'er close for thee twas its wonderland

as time marched on hopes faded away
as time marched on hopes faded away
thy heart's sunshine in gloomy shade
thy heart's sunshine in gloomy shade
thy heart's hopes faded in gloomy shade
as the sunshine marched away

on solitary shore without warming ember
on solitary shore without warming ember
a lonely refrain doth play on thy island
a lonely refrain doth play on thy island
on island shore without ember warming
a solitary lonely refrain doth play

in solitary dream of thy heart's sunshine
a wonderland faded in gloomy shade
without ember warming thy island hopes
march in time to a lonely refrain
thy remote shore doth play
ne'er close thee to reach love

The way he comes in smiles and leaves ..
The way he tries not to look but does ..
The way we connect and still be so far away from each other ..
The way he maybe never feel like me ..
But still it is the way he makes me feel ..
one day maybe ..
We were friends but i wanted more,
I wanted you whilst you wanted someone else.

I wanted you to touch my skin, more than you wanted too.

We could have intwined in the bedsheets together, but you were already in someone else’s arms.

I wanted forever but you wanted forever with someone else.

You left me with nothing but memories and the smell of you on my sheets.

You left a stain on my soul an ache in my chest.

I was addicted too you,
and i was a faint memory at the back of your mind.

I fell in love with you when you weren’t willing to meet me halfway.
I wonder if my clingyness, sadness drove you away,
to someone else.

And im still stupid enough to care, because you are you, because nothing else matters to me more than you.

You only cared to fill the space of loneliness from your last whilst you waited for your next.

You left a hole in my soul.

I left you with the satisfaction of knowing that i will always be there no matter what pain, suffering or upset you have put me through because i care too much to forget you.
This time together
Was the best
Of my life
And its so
Hard to just
Wave goodbye
To everything.
I can't promise
To be strong
But I can promise
That I'll love you
Even when I'm feeling weak.

In the quiet twilight of the night
Waiting for the break of day
I realised that you were right

In the time when dreams take flight
And the body drifts away
In the quiet twilight of the night

We should be making love not fight
Remember all our vows I pray
I realised that you were right

I reached out to hold you tight
Don't let go I heard you say
In the quiet twilight of the night

Now everything will be alright
This is how we have to stay
I realised that you were right

Before the dawn I saw the light
As the darkness turned to grey
In the quiet twilight of the night
I realised that you were right

Gone.
G-O-N-E,
Four letters that represent the hurt
In me,
Cold cold rain , don't care if it don't feel so nice
When everything it touches
Is already made of ice
You left me empty,
An abandoned house on a sketchy corner,
Cracked sidewalks running down the boulevards of
My heart
Gone,
And my life ain't ever coming back.
Oh, stand me on a pedestal,
I'm made of marble, pale and smooth,
I won't break when you drop me - ha!
That's a lie, just like the tears in your eyes
When you said goodbye - gone.

Stay humble my friend.
For you won't be here one day.
And although you think you might have left a legacy,
In due time it too will fade with you.
You want to be remembered as someone who
Was kind.
Loving.
Respectful.
Helpful.
Friendly.
And above all humble.
So take the compliments nicely.
Try to always be kind.
And try to be forgiving.
Although I know it can sometimes be hard.
Help others.
Stand up for one another.
Because those are the true legacies that impact lives.
Not just some material thing that will fade faster than you think.
