In the corner of my vision,
I see the western sky turning orange.

I sit and wonder,
If this color shining down on me,
will soon be shining down on you?

Come back soon, I gravely miss you.

After work,
As the sun set's in,
It's always the harmony of your voice that I chase,
"Shall we head home?"
"What should we eat today?"
"Here's what happened today."
I miss you like the sun misses the moon.
A never ending ordinary love.

Any and everyday,
Is a miracle with you.
In the kitchen where we keep our lives,
Holding hands as we give comfort to our hearts,
No matter what happens in the future,
That's what I wanted to talk to you about.

Every now and then,
I yearn for your longing.
It's like the world is not turning,
and I can smell the fire burning.

I remember your cold touch in mornings.
Here in my empty sheets,
it comes without any warnings.

Ever so often, I can feel your eyes around me.
Images of you in my head living rent free,
sooner or later I'm overflowing with glee.  

I watched you enter my life.
You were someone, somewhere on a different drive.
I remembered that I can't wait for it to be five,
because I'll see you soon then when I dive.

I went to the ocean today,
I'm sitting here in the shore, and wonder where your heart is right now.
You're a tidal wave of question marks etched into my mind and you're just surfing.

I was too afraid to pick my board up,
and get the feel of the water on my feet,
but I'm not ready to surf these tides without you.

I wish we could go back to what we used to be
All those late nights not needing anything.
Back when I could write empty platitudes and it made sense.
Back when the pain was directed and easy to understand.
And hidden.

I wish we could go back to when the roughest thing we did
to our body was ask for a large at McDonald's.
Back when I smelled beer on someone and thought,
"I'll never do that". And when I saw their eyes...
Oh those eyes.
I would say, "they just need to ovecome."

Oh to be half human again.
So arrogant.
So certain.
I wish I could go back and never realize what I wrote tonight.

If I tell the sorrows in my heart,
it will burn my tongue.

If I keep it inside,
I'm afraid it will burn my bones.

If I let it go,
I'm afraid it would burn the whole world.

I can't let it out,
So I let my sorrows stay inside.

It's raining tonight.
I've been reminding myself to buy an umbrella but,
I'd figure I'd wait.
I'd wait for it to end,
while contemplating if I have the right to remember us.  

Hopelessly hoping in vain,
that the broken pieces that I molded,
can be stitched back as if it can be fixed.
But the droplets of rain reminded me that it can't be undone.

I guess, I wanted to remember the nights that I will be saved from tomorrow.
Even if the rainy days would come, my universe would stop just by the mere sight of you.
That the start of your smile,
gives me courage to face every single day.  
But the rain gave me a cold touch on my shoulder,
to tell me that, my grief and I are inseperable.

It's infuriating to see the rain.
It's the constant reminder that you were my shelter back then.
That, even though the gods play with their thunder,
we would talk about the stars just to make fun of them playing with our lives.
But the rain didn't stop.
Just as I never stopped looking at the sky to look for you on the highest floor I can reach when the downpour starts.
