You sound same
As you were then
Gained your fame
But, this was when?

Those happy days
Singing of songs
Shattered in million ways
Now, it all seems wrong

My eyes still blurry
It's hard to open
I was gonna marry
Yes, but what happened?

Within blinks, am new
Collecting each piece
While recognizing few

This comma lasted few years
And a lot has changed
Brushing away my tears
And you, became strange

You moved on
I was told later
From my life, long gone
Now, it doesn't matter

Accidents don't happen by choice
It's the wrongs that turn right
Where no one hears your voice
All you see is darkness,
                                         while in search of light...

The one who did very little & the one who did it all
Had one thing in common
The girl who made each feel like he was not enough

Yes, we have counties
Boundaries and lines
But they’re all faded
Just like us
We have territories
Invisible chalk that we do not cross
For if you cross, prepare to be crossed
Back up, eyes up, guard up
We fight each other
For love. For our beliefs. For loyalty.
We fight for our territory
Yet we protect us. All of us
We shelter us, no exclusions, no exceptions
We are California and we are our own breed.

Nobody knows you
Nobody knows us
Because there was never an us at daylight
We were no more than that night
When I told you everything
Things I never knew I hadn’t said
Secrets I didn’t realize I’d been hiding
And you fed me your heart
Poured out your history to relate to mine
And we became one book with our story
Our words seeped into each others skin
And faded into the wooden planks on the walls
And beams on the ceiling
Sheltering that moment, protecting the purity
Something about you compelled me to talk
Something inside of me forced me to listen
5am came and you were gone
6:30 past and I was gone
We’re out here in this big world alone
But I know you’re not alone because part of you is with me
And I’m not alone because part of me is forever with you
