The sky is about to make you a liar
because
to the moon and back
is utterly impossible.
I still believe you
even if the universe never did.

And danger was closer and closer with each passing moon
but anyway
we turned to stargazing.
But even the stars fall from the sky
and no dream of mine could make you love me;
Or you for that matter
but I do
I love you.

You look good in blue,
it imitates my eyes
which mirrors my heart
that is yours
forevermore.

I weaved something beautiful for us both
but life is not a loom.
Its a series of complex embroideries
and our patterns never
matched.

At least you're honest,
that's something I've never been much good at.
I empathize with
The indoor cat who looks out
At what could have been
You stole my heart
Right out of my chest
But I guess that's okay
I planned on giving you the rest.

You are controlling my mind
To think about you all day
But you'll come to find
I don't mind feeling that way.

But there's rules for you
If you stole my heart
It's only fair I steal yours too
So give me the key or I'll break in

I'll take over your train of thought
For its your time to be taken
Stare at me and try not to get caught
Love is such a sneaky game.

Here's a secret to keep between you and me
In my dreams it's only you I ever see.
Somber and sympathetic,
the rain spoke patterns
you never could.
The paint on the canvas
never had a chance to fully dry
before you painted on another layer.
You couldn't quite stay between the lines,
and an acrylic became a watercolor
when tears stained our so called masterpiece.
Days spent debating
whether to paint over the wreckage
or crumple the paper,
but I've never been much of an artist.
