Jack Torrance
I wonder if you know,
that I used to watch you sleep.
Not in a weird way,
not being a creep.

Just watching,
your head on my chest.
Running my fingers through your hair,
and trying to match each breath.

Do you know that your lip,
does this cute, pouty thing?
Or that you’d sometimes giggle,
at what seemed like nothing.

It was always then,
that our future seemed clear.
No worries, or arguing,
simply no fear.

I think watching you sleep,
was when I loved you best.
Both of us smiling,
and two hearts at rest.

I’d give anything,
to hear that giggle again.
Or to feel your soft breath,
whisper on my skin.

All I want is a rewind to those times
When we talked for a long while
Seated under street lights
We were always together at nights

Staring at the moonlight
Our minds were filled with doubts
About what our future seems like

Then it went viral
That we were together
You asked how

I still don't know why

And it all sums up to now
Thinking of how we drifted apart
It was just too fast

But that was all in the past
All I wish for now is a rewind
So I can win back your heart

I really need a rewind ......
Typical me.........

Seated on a chair coupled with a table
Wanna write something about you
But nothing does comes through

I'm confused
Could it be we're no more fused
Or our bond has been loosed
Am trying to find you
But you're no where close

I only see foes

How could I have known
That you'll turn out to be this cold
Even though I was never told
I still couldn't  decode
That there ain't gonna be a yold

Seems our memories have been stolen
My heart is broken
I can't help but open up

Even when you said it was over
You weren't sober
At times I solemnly wonder
If we're really lovers

But I hope you see this and reconsider

As I looked into your eyes
I knew something was wrong
And then you said goodbye
We had been together too long

You said you didn't feel for me
The same way I did for you
And after years of our love
We were actually through

I said you won't go
You said you can't stay
But how was I supposed to know
It would all end that day

I told you how much I would miss
Each and every day
And that was when we kissed
And you turned and walked away.

Your words whisper sweet caresses of death as they flow into my ears,disguised as lullabies.Your eyes alight with treachery,like loki,the Asgardian God of Mischief.

You tugged at the strings of my heart,like it was a finely tuned instrument.For you enjoyed the music they created,cos my pain was nothing but a musical note in your ears.

My heart has turned cold,like the top of Mount Everest.Cos the higher you go,the colder it gets.
But to me the opposite is true.Cos the lower I sink into depression,the colder my heart gets.
And I wonder if this is the end.

Cos you made me feel like Superman.Until I told you the source of my power-you.
And you decided to take it away like Delilah took away Samson's strength.

How could you do this?
Blowing flowery kisses to my face,while you spewed poison behind my back.
And now as I try to analyse your motives,I can't deduce the lies from the facts.

Stay,
Unless your heart is taken,
And it feels like heaven

Stay,
Unless he brightens up your day,
Like the sun and its sun rays.

Stay,
Unless the thought of you and me,
Doesn't feel the same as it used to feel.

Stay,
Unless you've found a happy-ever-after,
That fills you with endless joy and laughter.

Stay,
Unless our love ceases in your eyes,
And I become like clouds in the endless skies.

Stay, even though you do not feel the same.

I dreamt of you again last night
As so many times before
Again I held you oh so tight
I could have never loved you more

Again I tried to make you stay
I was never quite that strong
Again you turned and walked away
I often wondered what went wrong

Together we made a commitment
To death do us part
But again I lost you before dawn
And again you broke my heart...

I hope someone can heal you,
I'm done trying.
