when you feel you have no one

it's a dark and cold place
there's nothing to keep you warm
no familiar face

you're surrounded by people
but you've never felt so alone
searching for something, anything, to make you feel at home

when you've lost all your hope

what is left to believe in
no one understands
or knows that you're not breathin'

people stare
but they can't see the pain in your eyes
they don't hear the voice inside of you that constantly cries

I used to get nervous around you
My heart would skip a beat
My palms would sweat
An uncontrollable shaking of my feet

Your laugh would ring in my ears
I would get lost in your stare
When you kissed me time would stop
With you, I had no cares

You used to say you’d love me forever
And I would surely agree
But what changed between us
What brought along this misery

The spot where you should be
Is empty but that emptiness follows me

I look at my hand
Your fingers aren’t interlaced
But when I close my eyes
I can still see your face

My heart is filled with love
Love that’s only for you
But my brain was selfish
And told me I had to choose

Confusion filled my mind
I didn't know what to do
I guess I was bored
And wanted to try something new

But now that I’ve grown, I've realized
That your love, is the only love I’ve ever known

Life is perfect when spent with you

your smile could turn any sky blue


we sit, talk, and people watch
drink coffee, share stories and smiles


when I'm having a hard day

you always know the perfect things to say


how can two people be so much alike
but so unique at the same time


talking with you always makes me feel better

life slows down when we're together


our wrists share something special
like our love for doing good deeds


with blonde and red hair

Emily, you and I, we make the perfect pair

soft lips
fingertips
the way your hands caress my hips

pounding chest
deep breaths
when I'm with you I forget the rest

hair pull
your breath is cool
tonight I will play your fool

clothes gone
imagination on
we've both wanted this for so long

so bat your eyes
whisper lies
please feed my hungry cries

mistake?
or heartbreak?
either way there's not much left for you to take.

Lying in my bed
window slightly open
the moon is shining bright
my eager heart is hopin'
that maybe you're looking too
and that we're together in this moment.

Either way I know I'm not alone
as I look above to the sky of greatness unknown
I take my last look before I close my eyes
suddenly it all makes sense- there's no questions why

And for the first time my vision is clear
when I look to my future I realize all of my dreams are so near
like night lights in the sky
the stars put me to sleep - the sweetest lullaby
