Beautiful Ruins Jan 2017
I'm scared that you will know
The depths of my feelings for you
Who knows what you will feel or do
It may be much of a burden for you

All I need you to know is this
I'm not asking for anything
Not for you to feel the same way
Or for you to even respond to how I feel

I just want to let these emotions out
My heart could contain them no longer
So I'll say now for who knows what tomorrow will bring

She's a living paradox
A creature of mystery
An uncanny mixture
Of confidence and insecurity

She's a walking contradiction
A mess so beautiful
Living in the light
But drowns in the darkness in her soul

Grave sadness is her company
Too many voices speak at once
Her soul is crying out
Spirit longing to find freedom

Night lurks like a thief
But light is waiting
For even a small opening
To breakthrough

I asked you
But you lied to me
And broke my heart

You told me
You didn't feel anything
But you did

More than losing a love
I mourn for the trust
That was broken

Can I trust you again?
Will I? I do not know
Maybe I will

But now I need space
Away from you
Till the pain leaves

They say that the right love
At the wrong time
Is still the wrong love

They say that there is
A time for everything
To hate, and to love

They say that
But when is the right time really?

Why did you have to come
When my heart's not done healing
From that last love
Where my heart was left reeling

I was just getting up from that fall
But here you come, teasing
With that beautiful smile
And eyes that seem to know my soul

I'm still scared
Heart clutched to my chest
I don't know if I could take that chance
To fall in love...yet again

So I'm just waiting
For you to take that first step
When you would hold your hand out
And ask me for mine

I am waiting
For when the timing is right
When I could give my heart
Unbruised and untattered

I'm still waiting
To fall in love...yet again

I never knew that this day would come
For me to be ready to let you go
To finally say that "I want to start moving on"

I never knew that this day would come
When I would finally want to say goodbye
To the one person who has made my heart feel alive

But goodbye I must say for 'tis the right time
The right moment to let these feelings die
Even though now I am slowly dying inside

Goodbye, my love, goodbye

I'm done
I don't wish to go on
Silently loving you
While you, on the other hand,
Were busy loving another

I'm done
I can't chase after you anymore
Not in my dreams
Nor anywhere else
My heart is done breaking

I'm done
Done hoping that there could be more
More to us than being friends
Done wishing you'll notice me instead

I'm done
Done letting you
Consume my thoughts
Done letting my heart hope
I'm finally letting you go

I'm done
