Black Pearl
Caleb Cross Feb 2016
There once was this girl
Who represented a black pearl
At first glance she was a screwup
At second glance a mistake
But in 6 months this girl grew up
And became the one girl I, let my heart, take
I realize this rare, black pearl
Is one very special special girl

Perfect Girl
Caleb Cross Feb 2016
This emotion that has found me,
This perfect girl that has bound me,
Her warmth gently surrounds me,
As the sun warms my body,
Her hands silky and smooth,
She is the picture of what I embody,
The perfect girl from which I will never move,
All her features are perfect;
Eyes from a sapphire lake,
Skin so soft only God could make,
Curves that I touch and can't help but intake,
A laugh that gives my trouble a break,
I can't describe what she means to me,
This emotion that has found me,
This perfect girl that has bound me,
Please, God, all I ask for from you,
Is wisdom and power and to honor you,
but there's one other thing if you didn't mind,
I really do love this girl and this is really insane,
But after everything falls, I want both of us to remain,
This emotion that has found me,
This girl that has bound me,
Has somehow turned my heart into my brain

Midnight Thought
Caleb Cross Feb 2016
Reliving battles won, battles fought
Thinking,
Appreciating,
Everything I've got
I used to be a robot
You showed me how to feel
In my heart I've got a knot
You are so unreal it's surreal
You're so cute, can you please not
I can't not think about you, I can't stop
When you kiss me,
You make me feel as if I'm at the very top
Feelings so good, they cannot be bought
Future uncertain but one thing I know
No matter what happens at the end of this show
We can make it work,
I won't ever let go,
you're way too rare to say "I'm sorry I can't, no"

Angel In Disguise
Caleb Cross Feb 2016
Could it be, this perfect being
Wrapped up in an earthly guise
My eyes averted, even fleeing
Every other girl intent on meeting
I look up to the bright blue skies
And hear my heart loudly beating
Her eyes her eyes are all my mind cries
So much time yet it is fleeting
You are my angel in disguise

Where am I
Caleb Cross Feb 2016
What's happening
I'm losing myself... I think
I'm not sure what to think
How to think
When to think
When to let go
When to hold on
When to let it out
When to keep it in
Confidence.
Something I once had
Something I long for
Is it my uncertain future?
Is it my easy past?
Is it my sheltered upbringing?
How can I find it again?
I dream of my old ways
Carefree
Stress free
Relaxed
Goofy
Loyal
Secure
I need that back
How do I get back on track
I've fallen
Way too fast
I can't see
Just what I used to be
And what I am now
I feel generic
Ordinary
AVERAGE
I want to feel like one of a kind
Please
You can
And you do
I just need that from you

Bad Timing
Caleb Cross Feb 2016
Please don't cry
Tears rolling down your face
It's on you I rely
fears coming at you
Leaving you alone in a dark place
How much I love you I cannot deny
The memories I have with you I'll never erase
I want more
Give me more
Bad timing
So what
It's not the end
I can see things with you later, around the bend
When we both can depend
On Who we are
What we are
Who we want
What we want
I'm not getting my hopes up
But I can't help and think
After a year or three
I'll take you out for a drink,
You wouldn't  have to kiss me,
Just give me a wink
I'd say yes before I could blink
I want you so bad
let me wipe those sad tears from your eyes
I'll have patience when you're mad
Rub your back when you're sad
I'll cherish the highs
Reflect when we're low
Break through societies lies
With you I will continue to grow
I need you to know
I don't do any of this for show
When I see you inside I glow
You have my heart
Please protect it

Whispers
Caleb Cross Dec 2015
I can feel it all around
This strange feeling I have found
I can feel it, see it, hear it's sound
I can feel it all around

This itch I just cannot yet scratch
This heart that quickly had to attach
This body has now met its match
This itch I just cannot yet scratch

None can know exactly how it touches
For all who breathe have their very own crutches
Alas, alas, I hear my sweet sweet dutchess
None can know exactly how she touches

Through two blue orbs I gaze all night
Hoping, dreaming, I may catch sight
The thing that has me praying with fright
Through two blue orbs I gaze all night

Whispers, whispers, all around
That which finds me shaking on the ground
Please! Please! Let me once. More hear the sound
I can but just feel YOU all around

Forgiveness
Caleb Cross Feb 2016
I'm sorry I've been distant,
I see that now in every instant,
My heart breaks.
Every piece has a price.
Do I have what it takes?
If you're effected by my problem how do you stay strong and love me giving me the perfect advice?
I'll never forget, the feeling I got,
Seeing you cry, knowing I made you upset,
I've been a brick wall
You open up to me, you trust me, then you fall,
It's not your fault, it couldn't be, no babe, not at all,
It's me who's hurt you, it's me, it's my fault
I've cut you, deeply, and in your wound I've poured salt.
I know you've forgiven me,
And that's more than I deserve,
I hope that you begin to see
I'm learning, growing, trying to preserve,
If I ever make a tear roll down your soft cheek and drop,
My heart right there, on the spot, might stop.
Thank you for having grace,
Even in our strife,
What we have is a long, long race,
And babe you just gave me new breathe and new life

Thinking about you
Caleb Cross Feb 2016
I can't sleep,
You're on my brain,
Nothing specific,
I just can't refrain,
Such good moments with you,
Kissing in the rain,
I'm chasing you in my dreams,
Where you take away my daily strain,
I'm chasing you, chasing you,
Maybe it's all in vain,
But the way you look at me,
Makes my heart want to attain,
The perfect girl my eyes will see,
Girl, you have me bound to a chain,
When I was little, I learned one thing,
To hit your goal, high you must aim,
I'm afraid I'm aiming for heaven this time,
But I need you,
Because without you, I'll never be the same

No Matter What
Caleb Cross Feb 2016
I'll love you, even if you do everything wrong
I'd spend all my money on you, to the very last dime
These feelings I have for you are so strong
The closest I get to you when we're apart, is through these silly little rhymes
If I could, I would write, to you a mushy love song
My memories made with you are some of my favorite times
I want to see you, I miss you, but it hasn't been long
I was at a loss for words when I heard this song, these particular lines
These lyrics, when I'm sad, in my heart they truly belong
"You'll never be alone
When you miss me close your eyes
I may be far but never gone
When you fall asleep tonight just remember that WE lay under the SAME STARS"

Summer Nights
Caleb Cross Feb 2016
What do I do?
Blurry vision, hot tears in my view,
Opportunities came, said hi, then away they flew.
I feel alone in a crowd,
Around many bright lights, but cast in a shroud,
My thoughts, so confusing, I can't say them aloud.
How will I get by?
I want to leave and give up, I know I should try,
But one more night like this and I might die.
Never felt this way,
Living day to day,
Losing, finding, then again losing my way,
Waiting for the end, the 31st of May .
Fantasizing of summer nights with you,
When I see you, all I can do...
Blurry vision, awed, happy tears in my view,
Opportunities came, said "hi, I want to stay with you".
I feel on top of the world in a crowd,
Around many bright lights, knowing I'm the most important one in your comforting love cloud.
How will I get by?
One night with you and you convince me I can fly,
I want to leave and give up, but to you I could never say goodbye.
Never felt this way,
Living day to day,
Loving, molding, then again loving you among the fray,
I'm waiting for the end, that final awful day,
That marks the exciting beginning, of many, many, long summer nights with you.

— The End —
