I remember that day
by the orange glow
you sat next to me
head on my shoulder

I never felt so content
so connected
as I had that night with you
both infected

The ecstasy of that moment
we shared
blinded us to the truth
woven by our teenage feelings

I don't remember why
I refused to listen
or why even now I
go back to that moment

I don't understand why
your smile stills haunts me
your laugh infests my dreams
your touch locks me in place

your presence
penetrates my thoughts
abstracting
adolescent love

such petty insignificant things
that keep me wide awake in the dark
Dakota Brown May 2012
As the rain touches my face
I feel invigorated
to live again
to feel the wind

As I watch you go round and
Round, I feel the need to stay
to talk with you
Watch over you

As I remain free from time
It finally becomes clear
Everything
Falls into place

As I lay on this bed, I
Revisit everyone
And I start to
Regret it all

Because all of a sudden
I'm missing everyone
Dakota Brown Jan 2012
There was once a time
when it felt so good
to be a part of
life's many designs

But now I feel caged
and locked deep inside
The times, oh how they change
The times, oh how they change

There was once a time
When we all would laugh
together and it
felt so real to walk

But now I feel caged
and locked deep inside
the times, oh how they change
the times, oh how they change

I used to take pride
in talking to you
but now those days are dead
memories in my head

And now I'm sitting here alone
struggling to jump the fence
because I know once I do
I can never go back again

The times, oh how they change
The times, oh how they change

— The End —
