How you come and
sweep everything away

Then you're gone and
I'm left with remnants

of what once was;
but never again will be
Atlantis Oct 2017
we'll
build
sand
castles
on the sky
where the tide
won't quash on
them and little feet
won't crumble them

Do you not notice the longing rush of the ocean
When it finally reaches the embrace of the shore?

Darling, I'm never the child of the sea
But it's easy for me to understand

For I too, find home when I run back to you
Atlantis Oct 2017
I spend my whole life
Collecting stardust and moonlight

To find out it's not the s p a c e
That you need
Atlantis Oct 2017
Your eyes are fiery flame
Do your lips burn the same?

Maybe if I kiss them right
I'll know what fire tastes like
Atlantis Sep 2017
Her lips
Taste
Like
S t a r s

And
When I
Kiss them
I'm

You're gone like you never existed
Like I've never fallen in love with the way
You drink your water every morning
Warm when it's chilly and cold on usual days

You're gone like you never existed
Like I've never fallen in love with the way
You call my name
A lot of people do too, but none ever sounds quite like yours

You're gone like you never existed
Like I've never fallen in love
Like I will never fall in love

— The End —
