you are more than you think to me
we need not swim endlessly throughout this sea
but inside, let us float by
as the waters abide
and if these waves allow it,
I'll arrive at your side.

Anchor your weary heart, and allow your soul to breathe.

*you will find your way,
through the waters
using my voice,
a sirenesque song
to guide you
all night long

Like a flame
Eternally
Burning
Inside the chest

Can't control
Can't contain

The cause
Of the flame
Is far
Far away

And I don't think
The cause knows
What it has done

Ignite
Burn
Spread
All over

No sight of ending
Unless
The cause
Returns
And pour its water
To this burning yearning heart

Let it go
Bury
Dig deep
Leave it behind

Feeling
Not wanted
Abandoned
Haunting

Unwanted
Not granted
Give it away
Wasted

Think
Remember
So that you won't
Suffer

Heart is wild
Stubborn
And selfish

It wants
What it wants
Without second thought
Of consequences

It hurts
When it gives away
Its feeling
To the void

But it never learns
About the past
It keeps going
Oh wild, wild heart

Can't you see
That without you
I am empty
A day without you
Is like a year without rain
A terrible drought
Feeling nothing but pain
It's harder to breathe
When you're not around
I wish you would realize
That without you I'm down
You lift my spirits
You take me higher
I want you forever
You're all I desire
Don't let me go
And give me a chance
I was made for you
To give you this romance
See me for who I truly am
And never stop loving me
Let's come together
And embark on this journey

Wish to be where you are
Having funny convo
Laugh along
Not living this far

It hurts to see you there
And I am here
When all I want
Is to be near

teased in hopeful anticipation
seconds pass in days


**tortured surrender

empathy for others
when the sole is always painted red
