On second thought
ben wyatt Mar 2015
"On second thought I will not stay."
As I turn to say goodbye.
There is nothing left for us to say,
The conversation has run dry.

We tried our best to make it work,
We tried to live the lie.
So it's time to go, to avoid the hurt.
So you wont have to cry.

That I must walk out the door
Is for the best, you can't deny.
But I'll remember you forever more,
Until the day I die.

My heart can't take it
ben wyatt Feb 2015
My heart can't take it, when I think about you
For I know we wont make it, a lifetime through
So, no, I won't get up, to stand by your side
The pain is too great, its too hard to hide
  
You swear I can trust you, you'll always be true
But so said my last love, and all before you
You may call me a coward, and perhaps it is fear
But the pain is too great, its too hard to bear
  
I wish it were different, that I could believe
That you will stay with me, that you'll never leave
I'd open my heart wide, grab hold of your hand
But the pain is too great, its too hard to stand
  
Perhaps I'll look back, and regret what I've done
Perhaps you're my true love, perhaps you're the one.
So I wish I could stay, with all of my might
But the pain is too great, its too hard to fight
  
So I'll now say goodbye: farewell my amour.
You'll find someone else, of that I am sure.
If I am ever asked why, I'll always state:
The pain was too great, it was too hard to take

In my dreams
ben wyatt Mar 2015
For dreams to come true
Firstly you
Have to have a dream

So when I turn out the light
Every night
I will be dreaming of you

I would
ben wyatt Feb 2015
I would in the fires of Hades play
Blind the night and dazzle day
Cage the wind and catch the rains
To look upon your face again

I would raze the valleys low
Fill the deserts up with snow
Crack the earth open wide
To spend a moment by your side

I would silence mighty thunder
Rend jagged lightning asunder
The jealous gods from their heavens rip
To place one kiss upon your lips

I would drink the oceans dry
Pull the mountains from the sky
Pluck out the stars and put out the sun
To hear you tell me I'm the one

Farewell
ben wyatt Feb 2015
Whatever may have come to pass
To bring this day of reckoning,
I'll love you 'til I breathe my last,
My heart forever beckoning.

All seasons in one day
ben wyatt Feb 2019
I want to walk with you
Through Spring fields of morning dew
Take a chance and take your hand
Turn to face you as a man

I want to lie down by your side
Underneath a Summer sky
Close my eyes and kiss your lips
Trace your back with my fingertips.

I want to sit all afternoon
With Autumn leaves around us strewn
Kiss your neck and hear your breath
Put my mouth upon your *******

I want to hold you warm and tight
On a dark, cold Winter’s night
Pull you close and look into your eyes
Slip my hand between your thighs

— The End —
