I hear love
I hear fun
I hear beating hearts
and shaking beds
I hear beating drums
and shaking legs
I hear you fall
your voice as I tremble
your hands on my thighs
hugging my waist
feasting your eyes
Am I different?
What makes you feel alive?
I'm almost afraid to see you
Will you make me feel alive?
Will you enter my universe?
Will you lose your mind?

Just like that, it's over
Early morning kisses goodbye
Stumbling in drunk at midnight
No more waiting for flowers
No more jaded friends
Enter "You deserve better."
Let me hold you while you cry
Enter emotions, true love
No more lies, enter trust
Enter "Please don't go."
Enter "I love you, I forgive you."
It's all over
Late night dinners
Dancing in the kitchen
Enter "You don't have to do this alone."
I believe you, **** him
No more disrespect

I picture you at your wedding
Glowing, with a baby in tow
Happy, grateful, crying
Reaching all of your dreams

I hope when we hear about each other, that we'll be proud, and that we'll give credit where credit is due

My thoughts are scattered
I can’t write how I feel
I wish you would love me
Love me enough, love me enough
Love me enough to be real

Enough to bring me flowers every week
Enough to not hate me
Enough to tell me how beautiful I am
Enough to not hate me

This doesn’t make sense
It’s how I feel about you
Like after years you still don’t know me
You still don’t know how much I love you

It’s everything we’ve been through
How none of it would have happened with her
It’s like almost half our lives
We’ve tried and we’ve tried
It’s all gone by in a blur

I’m looking forward to day break
I have hope it will happen soon
When we are laughing and vibing
All the flower we’ve planted will bloom

I’m looking forward to day break
Everyday waking up next to you
I’m looking forward to the sun shining
And my world expanding because of you

What I want is to build a worship mantle
With a large amethyst crystal facing the sun and the moon
Charging my inhibitions and uncontrollable ****** desire

I want to manifest a blunt in my hand
And me wearing a **** outfit that outlines my curves
A man or woman that can’t take their eyes off of me

I don’t want to be happy anymore
I want to be at peace and I want to accept myself
I am perfect I have no flaws

I want to be creative and be naked half the time
Cooking or painting or laughing at my own jokes

I want to make fancy drinks
With bitters and orange peels
Lust and love

I want to go to pretty places the kind that are picturesque
I won’t take pictures

My freedom in all it’s forms will speak through my smile
Something innate to me
A memory in my muscles

I will fool myself everyday until I die

As far as the moon goes
I'm jealous of its brightness
How it can change a tide
Take you for a ride
And collide

As far as the moon goes
I'm jealous of it's darkness
I'm jealous of how it has a schedule
A full calendar that never changes
I'm jealous of it's nature

As far as the moon goes
I'm jealous of it's beauty
That its mirror the ocean glows in its presence
Its bumps lying softly and rashly on its face
I'm jealous of its entrance

As far as the moon goes
I wish I could go with it
Hear it spinning in the vortex
Tell her to stop yelling my name

I am a product of God's omnipresence
Of His mercy and His forgiveness
Of his salvation and his protection

I have a duty
My purpose is to be a beacon of light
Follow me
Because God eradicates all darkness
And I walk with Him

His brightness has shone on me
my blood was saved by Him
I am grateful for my life
Because God has given me breath

In the caves he spoke to us
He said do not lose hope
Believe in me
In me you will live forever
In him I live forever

How many times have guys said that you have beautiful eyes?
How many times have they said they can’t get you off their mind?

Have they told you that your laugh is still ringing in their ears?
That they want to hold you and hug you and kiss away your fears?

Will they promise to listen and to care about your thoughts?
Will they understand and see every person that you are?

Can they say that when you speak your lips are distracting?
Can they say even when you sleep you’re overreacting?

When they see you do they say their hearts skip a beat?
When they see you do they say, will you be with me?
