Every time I see you
It’s like a spark lights up in my eyes.
When you look at me,
My heart skips a beat.

When I see your name on my phone
A smile consumes my face.
When your voice reaches my ears,
My heart melts a little inside.

A touch from you
Is like a million little zaps running down my arm.
When you’re gone
I feel lost and alone.

I could stare at you for hours
And never, ever get bored.
Baby, please don’t leave me.
I need you to stay here with me

Every second that you’re gone,
I replay your words in my head.
Just hold me tight
And never let me go, baby.

Turn around.
Turn your face.
Look me in the eye
And tell me you love me.

Tell me that it wasn’t just a dream.
Let me know
There is a reason
That I keep on missing you.

Help me understand
What’s happening here?
Was it just a dream?
Or was it all reality?

Is there something here?
Or is it all just imagery?
So please tell me now
Otherwise forever hold your peace.

I know what you are.
I know what you did.
I know that you lied.
I know you're not sorry.

I'm sorry that I listened to you.
I'm sorry that I cared.
I'm sorry I believed you.
I'm sorry for agreeing to everything.

I know that you used me.
I know who told you to do this.
I know it wasn't really you.
I know that you'll regret it later on.

I'm sorry I replied to you.
I'm sorry that you listened to him.
I'm sorry that you can't be real.
I'm sorry that you had to go through this.

Your eyes;
Your face;
Your smile;
Haunting me each night in my dreams.

You’re thousands of miles away,
But still, the “what ifs” run through my mind.
Wondering, wanting, needing to know
What might have happened.

But you’re gone.
I should be at peace.
I shouldn’t have to remember
What a look from you could do.

I should be able to move on, away from you.
But still, the “what ifs” run through my mind.
Wondering, wanting, needing to know
What might have happened.

And yet, here I sit.
Looking out the window to the road
That you walked by every day,
Hoping for a glance.

Even still, I look into the crowd, but you’re not there.
But still, the “what ifs” run through my mind.
Wondering, wanting, needing to know
What might have happened.

I hope you’re happy.  I hope you’re safe.
Write, every now and then
Just so I know that you still think of me
As I think of you, a thousand miles away.

I hope you smile, when you think of your time here.
I hope you laugh, when you think of all the stupid things we did.
I hope you remember my name, when someone points to a picture.
But most of all, I hope you remember me, for me!

The lone wolf howls through the night.
Despair, pain, hurt.
Longing for the sound of the returning cry.
Painful silence is all he hears.
Agony fills him as he listens into the hushed night.
He’s alone.
Longing for a pack of his own.
Searching for comfort and strength.

The lone wolf runs through the night.
Weak, tired, somber.
Longing for the feel of fur on fur.
Cold wind is all he feels.
Misery creeps through him as he rubs against a tree.
He’s alone.
Aching for the feel of another of his own pack.
Seeking for warmth and companionship.

The lone wolf hunts through the night.
Hungry, watchful, sleepless.
Longing for the smell of playful competition.
Dry leaves are all he smells.
Disquiet overcomes him as he pines for a new smell.
He’s alone.
Thirsting for the smell of a pack.
Scouring for love and friendship.

The lone wolf howls, runs, hunts through the night.
Despair, pain, hurt, weak, tired, somber, hungry, watchful, sleepless.
Longing for the returning cry, the feel of fur on fur, the smell of playful competition.
Painful silence, cold wind, dry leaves are all he knows.
Agony, misery, disquiet flow through him.
He’s alone.
Longing, aching, thirsting for his own pack.
Searching for comfort and strength; seeking for warmth and companionship; scouring for love and friendship.

The lone wolf is all alone.
Searching without finding.
He’s alone.
Without a pack of his own.

If this is what the truth brings,
Then never shall I speak it again.
I hate you.
I don’t need you.
I don’t care that you walked away.
Alas,
The lie hurts as much as the truth,
Or even more,
So never shall I speak it again.
But then what shall I speak?
Riddles?
I do not like riddles,
The meaning is much too hard to find.
Then I shall speak the truth,
For the truth hurts,
But it is the truth.
And if you walk away
After I speak the truth,
Then you do not matter.
Now I'm being honest with myself.
You do not matter,
Even though I care.
Why do I care?
When you do not matter?
Now I'm dissuaded to use the truth,
But it is best.
For now I can tell
Who cares,
And who does not,
And who shall never.
So good-bye to those
Who do not and shall not ever care.

You lifted me up.
Took me to a place faraway
A place where I could belong.
  

Up in the clouds
Where the angels soared across the skies
Dancing with fairies.


Finally I felt like I belonged.
I could be me
And not fear what others thought.


After battling with words and swords,
I could rest and let the scars heal.
You lifted me up and I was safe.


Slowly, oh so slowly,
I started to fall.
Slow enough that no one saw.


Now I’m stuck, trying to claw my way out.
Old wounds are reopening,
Blood and tears fall across the ground.


A ground where the devil controls the outcomes,
Where demons crawl
Fighting to be number one.


I realize now, that you only threw me to the winds
Letting me rise up, only to fall again,
And not being there to catch me.


You threw me to the winds
And now I am falling,
Paying the price of trusting you.


You moved on,
Faster than the soaring angels.
Just like the warring demons who won a fight only to move on to the next.


You took your turn
At making me happy
Just like everyone else has.


But just like them
You left me to the dogs
Not wanting to remember that I am just another person.


But now,
Now it is my turn.
My turn to move forward.


I’m on my own
But for once,
I’m not afraid.


I can look up at the sky
And see the outlines of the angels and fairies.
Finally, I can see where I am to go.


You may have thrown me to the winds
And left me to fall
But now I know.


So thank you.
It’s my turn to move on,
Now that I know where to go.


You had your turn,
So now,
I guess it is my turn to move on from here.
