We all live
As the summers pass by
Please don't disappear
Broken hearts we always give
Our souls are
Scorched deserts
We burn out
Like a shooting star
I'm lost in my words
Does anyone know
What we're looking for
Never mind
You're all a flock of birds
Don't be light
You mean more
To me
Your soul heavy with love
Even though we're close to night
Vote for your end
Wear your masks,
Smile like nothing is wrong
Spit poison people do
Do we attack or defend?
We are our own salvation
You're the most beautiful entity
I ever dreamed of
Don't be like them
Those of a hemlock nation
I don't want time to go so quickly
The future is so slow
Why does it matter in the cosmic sense
Dust of a planets tears
Even crystals are prickly
Your heart grows warmer
As we hurtle through the sun
Blindly we bustle
Unbeknownst to the former
Lives we have lived
Smell the flowers
Don't waste your summers
In front of death lights
Or else your time has arrived
Another  day  is  over.
Another  day  is  done.
This  week  went  past  so  quickly.
This  week  went  by  so  fast.
My  life  has  gone  so  quickly.
Old  men  told  me  so.
And  now  I  tell  the  young  men.
That  life  to  quickly  goes.

The further away things are in space when we look at them,
The more we're looking at the past.
So I think you must be at least as old as the universe
To have left such an impact upon it.
Your words as colourful as those pictures of nebulas;
Words of wisdom that hover in the mind long after spoken.
The cold, vacant space you inhale becomes blessed by your existence,
Exhaled into the creation of heat, your breath births countless stars.
Your suffering, a black hole.
Dreadful, heavy beyond measure, eternal.
Would swallow us all into death, split us into pieces,
But you see how far we've come and want us to thrive.
So the black hole swallows up the misery of others,
Growing wider, the hole in your heart, endless.
And then you end, so the universe ends.
There are no more stars to be formed,
Nor galaxies to add to the multitude you gave us.
It's all gone.
It just hasn't reached our eyes yet.
Come here darling
Don’t be afraid
Im here to keep the darkness away
Kisses and hugs
Are wonderful things
I shall give you both so you can laugh and play
A shoulder to cry on
An ear to listen
Patience and love is all you require
Don’t  cry now
Please tell me whats wrong
I can help with tears, that’s all I desire
I am always here dearest one
Don’t stop living
Don’t stop shining
Your time of anxiety is hereby done
My girlfriend needed a lullaby to help with her anxiety. this is what i came up with.
One day I fell
Tears full of dread
I was all alone
In my white padded home
There, I cried the days away
You heard my darkened cries
And you did something in turn
You knocked and walked right in
Straight through the dark
Walked through shards
Of broken glass
Just to find the source
Of this dark time
You opened my door
My back was turned to you
You did not care
You crept behind me
Wrapped your wings
Around my cold sides
And told me to let it out
You stroked my head
And shattered the rusty chains
You carried me outside
Took me to your sunny home
Where there my strength grew and grew
'Till I was shining too
You planted a velvet kiss
On  my rosy lips
Gently grasped my hand
We left to live
We had a dream
That did come true
The bells to an fro
Our smiles bright and loved
By all who saw
Me in a suit of grey
Walking beside a girl
Who wore a black dress
And remained a noblesse
Through the darkened days
'Till we grew old
Then you fell
In my arms
I cried again
You raised your soft hand
Placed it on my cheek
Wiped away my fears
You whispered
"Don't ever stop living
For I shall be with you
Always and forevermore"
With her last breathe she passed away
Buried in her black dress
I love her to this day
I won't fall again
Because what I promised her
I keep my tears
Locked in my heart
I remember her smile
That beautiful crescent moon
I know her hair
Short and hazeled
And I know her eyes
The stars of the sky
And I remember this
'Till I drift away
But never fear
'Cuz I know this to be true
She will locate me
And I shall locate her
And we shall live after death
Bringing joys, not regrets
'Till the end of time
For my dear sweet wife, Rebecca Vail Addams
