I love you deeper than the ocean,
farther than fish can swim,
I love you as high as the stars beyond our sky,
oh the happiness that you bring.
Love is such a complicated thing
I just could never understand,
I'd never waste my time on any boys
or let them ever hold my hand.
When I look into your eyes
its not like the others I've ever seen,
when I look in your eyes I see the whole world, I feel as if I'm in a dream.
Is this real? Is it true? I can't even comprehend,
all I know is I dream of being in your arms until the very end.
Time ticks on, the days drag on, and I grow fonder of who you are,
in this dark black sky that is my life, you're the one and only shining star
who guides me through my times of sadness, hopelessness, and despair,
truly without any doubts,
you're the only one who cares.
I've never had a man look at me the way that you do,
it seems as if I'm seeing the world as if it is brand new.
As I lay down before I go to sleep,
I pray to the god above us that my heart, you'll always keep
. I felt like a flower in a vase,
slowly but surely withering away,
but you are the water that was poured into me,
and kept me alive, don't you see?
without you, love, I could not be,
my darling without you, I wouldn't breathe.
without you my love, surely I would cry,
my darling without you, surely I would die.

Dwelling on the past
I'm not sure the reason
The best times of our lives
Pass by as if they were seasons
And the painful  times drag on
For such an unreasonable amout of time,
Acting as if they were a punishment
For an unforgivable crime.
You cannot relive
Memories
But you ponder them within
Nostalgia creates a bitter sweetness
Of the places you have been

So sail away
In the calm ocean of your mind
And Think of all the good times
That you had to leave behind.

if you look into the mirror
and you don't break down and cry
you better thank the so called god above
that you don't want to die

you are blessed
unlike the rest
who cry themselves to sleep
because they hate their ****** reflection
they just want to love themselves
sick and tired of all the objections

why is it that
I see deep inside
I am nothing but worthless
why am I even alive?

You're nothing but the ground I walk on, depending on the weather and seasons you could be the warm green grass tickling in between my toes
Or you cold be the cold winter snow numbing me inside and out
You're nothing but the clouds up in the sky
Or maybe the stars
Either way, you can never seem
To stay too long.
You're nothing but the winds in the air that pass through ever so briskly yet calmingly
Always Leaving me breathless
You're nothing but the christmas lights
Filling houses with vibrant colors and happiness in december
But its january now
And the bulbs are burnt out
But still they hang lifelessly
And broken
You're nothing but the flowers in a vase
At first so beautiful
With such a lovely aroma
That look so pretty sitting out
For everyone to look at
And admire
But now the petals have fallen off
And the dead flowers hang down
You're nothing but the waves in the ocean
Always leaving
Then coming back to crash down
With intense force and power
You're
Nothing

Yet, You're everything.

I'm awake
Its nearly 2:30 am
And once again, I dreampt of you
Your eyes
They will always possess me
And I can feel your voice
Giving me chills, flooding me,
And piercing through my black soul,
Full of sorrow and full of despair.
By this, you create a feeling of ecstacy
Swimming through my veins
And shattering my bones
This is why I awake at nearly 2:30 am
Simply just to write songs about you
Simply just to get you off my mind.
Inhale me,
Let me takeover your every breath.
Flooding into your lungs,
You are now mine.
Surely until I fade away
Into thin air
And leave nothing but ashes
On the ground.
Spill out everything you're filled with;
Who knows whether your glass is half empty
Or half full
Now its on the ground
And that's okay,
Because I'm on my hands and knees
Cleaning it all up.
You remind me of stain glass windows in a church;
Some see your beauty, on the inside and out,
But they only notice when the sun gleams through your colors and cracks,
Showing off such vivid and lovely colors.
Some people,however,
They don't see your beauty. The can't fathom it.
They're the ones who throw rocks at you,
Leaving you shattered into
A million pieces
On the floor,
Not able to be loved,
Not able to be appreciated.
But, while you're that shattered mess
On the floor,
Let it be known
That I am the one
On my knees
With my fingers cut and bleeding
Picking up every shattered or broken
Piece of you
And I will mend you back together
I will make you feel whole
I will make you feel special
Because you are.
Look me in the eyes;
I'm not sure whether they remind me
Of the sound of the rippling waves in the salty ocean on a hot summer day
Or the smell of the smoking flames of a bonfire on a warm july night
Either way,
They set my soul at ease.
Things are impermanent.
We all know this too well.
Roaring fires turn to embers
Embers turn to ashes
That soon blow away into thin air.
This is why our love is not like fire.
Our love cannot be described.
"Nothing lasts forever"
Our love
Is nothing
Our love
Is forever.

I am something everyone searches for
No matter who you are,
Deep down, you crave me.
I can make your sun shine
Or I can bring you grey clouds
I can make you feel high
I can make you feel on top of the world
Like nothing could ever harm you,
Like you're invinvible
Or I can tear you down so low
I can make you do things you swear
You'd never do
I can turn the strongest people weak
The bravest people into cowards
I can be the reason behind your smile
When you wake up
Or I could be the reason you cry at night
When your head finally hits the pillow
What am I?

Your eyes;
They are not blue
But I'll compare them to the ocean
If I want to
They surely do remind me
Of the stirring of the waves crashing down
On the sand
But baby, I don't think
I could ever understand
Because when I look deep within them
My mind gets so lost
But I'm going to uncover you
Whatever the cost
I've never seen such
Sad, sad
Eyes
So dark with such a
Familiar surmise.

I'd swim all the oceans for you
I'd break all my bones for you
I'd let all my blood
Run dry
I'd put my right hand on the bible
But still I'd lie
I'd walk ontop of broken glass
I'd drive a car
Then crash
I'd make decisions
That are rash
I'd wipe the makeup off my face
Even though that is a disgrace
I'd run a thousand mile race
I'd risk my life
I'd leave this place
I'd rip the wings off a butterfly
Just To see if it would still fly
I'd put a bullet through my head
Just To see if I'd die
I'd pray to the god that may or may not exist
I'd swim in a tank with the fish
I'd take every single risk
I'd lay down in my bed
And think of everything I dread
I'd re live nightmares
That go on in my head
I'd fly to the moon
I'd say "ill be back soon"
But if I had to,
I'd just drift off into the galaxies
Like a balloon

I hate you
Yet I dream about you

And when I awaken in the middle of the night

I ache for you

And when the morning sun shines through the cracks of my window in the early day

Deep down inside me

I wish you had stayed

Out there somewhere
There's a girl with soft hair
That falls halfway down her spine
She dances with the stars until they're aligned

She sings with the moon
Convinced that the sun will come back soon
But she's always left in the darkness

She says "that's ok"
Because things always go astray
Yeah sometimes things get in the way

She's innocent and unaware
Quite frankly she doesn't care
She just want to be free
That's why baby lives for the
lsd

The truth is
I've never been so terrified before
In this life,
We never know what's in store
I'm a terrible mess
Left scattered on the floor
Because everything I've ever loved
Has walked out the door
So there I was,
I finally got the strength to build
Up some walls
They're made out of
Bricks and cement
They will never fall
But you came in
And somehow knocked them over
You promised me you'd be mine
Even when we're older
I fell for you so fast I can't
Even explain
How wondeful you are
To take away my pain
I love you
As the sun loves the moon
You promised me
You'd be back soon
But right now you're so far
But I will always keep my door ajar
Just incase you come back home
For I don't believe its safe for you to roam
But I've never been so scared before
All I want is forever to be yours
I hope nothing gets in the way
I hope your feelings never fade away
I know for a fact you are better than me
Its so very easy to see
I'd give you the stars
Because you healed my scars
Please never leave me
There's no way I could breathe
I could never love again
My love for you is until the very end
You are my soul mate
My sunshine
My prince
And my fate
This is why I'm mortified at the thought of losing you baby
So will you always stay, maybe, just maybe?

Oh mary j
You make things okay
I love you beyond words.
I love to light you up
Watching you burn
Baby you make my world turn
Hits from the ****
Tokes from the bowl
Miss Mary jane
You make me feel whole
You will be my best friend
Until I die
Without you I could not survive
Everyday, I give thanks to god
Me and mary
Are like two peas in a pod
Well my lungs and my bones are craving
Your smoke
Ill see yall later I'm gonna go ****

I close my eyes
(there are tears in my eyes)
I let him touch me
(I don't want him to touch me)
We smoke ****
(but you're all that I need)
He traces his finger tips down my body
(I miss the way you'd feel my body)
He kisses me softly
(I taste your lips)
He gazes into my eyes
(I miss looking into your eyes)
He tells me I'm perfect
(You made me feel perfect)
He lays me down on the bed
(You're in my head)
He takes off my clothes
(You made me feel whole)
He gives me that look
(You could read me like a book)
He thrusts inside me
(I wish it were you beside me)
He makes me feel amazing
(I hated you for changing)
Then, he is done
(You said you were done)
He kisses my face
(No one can take your place)
He says goodbye
(You said goodbye)
Now I'm alone
(Please come back home)
