leaving this house
and now i'm out on the highway
the wind is rushing, rushing, rushing,
lover's hand hanging sweetly on the steering wheel.

my eyes, so bright, i feel bright.
there is the sight of love, this
is the power in my veins, glowing.

suitcases stuffed high in the back,
destination is unclear
but it doesn't matter.

i will never live until your lips give me sin,
oh god, i never even breathed!
the freeway is our haven, pit stops sound like adventure.
it's funny, because i've been outside and i've seen
pretty faces, waterfalls, and laughing children, and even the night, but did i ever look up?
oh god,
i never knew --

i never knew the stars could shine
that bright.

DC raw love
Alone he seeks
Alone he searches
Alone he hopes

Alone she seeks
Alone she searches
Alone she hopes

Together they learn
Together they trust
Together they love

As one
they grow

If I give you my love,
will you hold on to it?

If I give you my heart,
will you cherish it?

If I give you my life,
will you keep it?

Why
Everyone in the world tries to be different
So isn't that what makes us all the same?

hey
there's so much things going on in these last two weeks. at least in my head. you left. i closed the door loudly. i locked it and i hoped that you could hear the sound of the locks clicking. ( but i didn't want you to hear how my hands was shaking when i was looking for the right key).

all i want to say is i'm sorry. i'm sorry i don't tell you enough, i'm sorry that i told you too much things that doesn't matter. i'm sorry i treat you like another ego-booster. i'm sorry i acted like i didn't care. i, in fact, really care about you and it hurts me to see you think that i don't.

please never forget the way i looked you in the eyes when we listen to that verse together.

i wish i was braver, i'd break this silence that's been killing me. but then again, if i was braver, i would have told you i love you a thousand times.

i'd say "i'd do it all again", sweetly like in one of our favorite songs, but no, i'm not brave enough, and we destroyed each other too much.

i treat you like an old favorite record

i turned on the radio
and heard a poppy song
it was easy for it to interest me
and easier for me to end up switching the station

my friend brought me to an opera
i could still hear the perfection flowing
and shivers growing inside me
like mushrooms on humid lands

but you are an old loved record
that never leaves the turntable
with scratches carved into you
after spins for the lonely soul

you're a faded moon
so deafen me with the chosen strangers
and cover the sound of you leaving
you finally remember how to land
after sailing polluted skies
full of light that covers the stars
lay me down, fade away
the sun will rise
and i'll burn again
as you grow translucent
i'll picture you finally caressing sunshine
and you'll never be the same
because the last time i knew you
you weren't a full moon

it takes twenty one days
to build a new habit*
and you came back to me
on the twentieth day

oh what light
shall brighten
up the
stars of night
until
you hear
a whisper
from
a storm
in sight
