Through the eyes of a dying person
Living comfortably with the idea of dying
Knowing there may be more
but believing that there may not
Weighing probability and chance
With wonder

When I die
I don't want to leave with the sounds of sobbing
Nor the sirens waking up the neighbors
I want to be remembered with your love music words hope
and the happiness
of life

Most of all
To love without fear
Your promise of living on

hug me from behind
with your love  
not romance
for I'm getting better
at tearing myself away
from every little thing
that reminds me of you

*but I still recognize
even your silhouette

Saint Valentine's Day
A day of romance
just one day ?
what's that all about
Valentinus oh he who fought for love
and died for love
but who cares about that
it's not even February yet
and already people are a little crazier than usual
there’s the ones going on and on
about not having a date
true
it does seem criminal to be single on this day
But let's keep things gay

oh and then there's the boyfriends or crushes who bring flowers
chocolates
and maybe even one of those stuffed animals
holding a big red stuffed heart
that has I heart the letter U on it
then they'll lean in for the kiss
and that's how it'll all start
In her head she'll be going
"My mind's telling me no , but my body , my body's telling me yes"
and just like that you'll be set
because she'll be getting a little _ _ _
down there
and you'll get your Valentine's day ***
ew rated x
hopefully it's *** with love
hold up
What is up ?
Oh besides that of course (look down)
Get yourself a ****** and enough about that

Can't we love everyday
even if it isn't easy to say I love you
throw in a sweetheart here and an oh honey there
And the simple things
your matching rings
and what they mean
the catching of the other's eyes across the table
the accidental brushing of bodies
and you'll be blushing oh lordy
looking up only to see them smiling

What a perfect picture
isn't that what we all want
Even for those who have date after date with loneliness
There may be love
There must be love
three hundred and sixty-four other days
So much for Valentine's Day

He's my best friend
even when he disappears from the world
for a bit ,
I know all the ways he's making sure
for me to know
he's still here for me .

It's been years
and miraculously distance has been powerless
against our friendship ,

We hear over and over again
how we'll make such a cute couple
and how we'll probably get married someday ,
but none of that is important

I'm just grateful .
For every day you're in my life
for the comfortable silences
and the talks that go on until one of us falls asleep
and it goes on hours later ,

I don't think you understand .
How much all the times you let me cry meant ,
nor how many smiles the stupid things you say
have brought to me .
You are my enlightenment
and unspoken love

the hand I grasp for .
Everything that has brought me you
I thank ,
for we've both needed this fight together
to get back on our feet

and with all of me
and an embrace from you .
I know we'll never stop dancing

I had a movie moment
tonight

it was with a boy
a short elevator trip
and a walk down a hallway

I went one way
as he went the other

we had already gone
apart
when
He said Goodnight
and I said Goodnight
back
and it was just us
in that hallway
there was a sigh of a pause
then came the

Sweet dreams from him
You too was all of me

And I smiled
as I listened
to the jingling
of his keys
for he swung them
as he walked
and I saw
the little boy
in this man

I saw
in this man
and I

I think
I may have fallen
for an everyman
the one who everyone
can't help but like
and my insecurities
make me ask
do I have a chance
of being the reason
he becomes
my onlyman
