I get drunk on your memories
Like rhum, bittersweet
You lips taste like morning hangovers
But still
I couldn't quit

I borrowed the color of the ocean
to color my mood
But I painted it much darker
than I ever thought I could

I borrowed the color of the ocean
Hoping that this time
I wouldn't drown
But I ran out of breath
Even before I began

The deeper the blue
The more I think about you

He was not what she wanted,
She was all he dreamed about
Though his love won't be reciprocated
He loved her without a doubt
And they were two bodies dancing to two different songs
Neither hearts is singing along
He was dancing because he's in love
She's dancing for it's only him she can have
And they were two lost souls who found each other
Though it was never asked for them to stay together
One did because of love
One did out of choice
So her dance of pretense continued
And he was swayed for he was blinded
Until life bid them both goodbye
One died never knowing true love
One died never knowing what real kiss felt like.

Every puff of smoke
                                 Every sip of this stale coffee
                                      Reminds of the rainy days we shared

                       How we tried to warm each others body
                                 playing fire
                                     by the fire our hearts made with the passion our bodies felt

                       We burned each other
                               down to every inch of fiber until there's nothing left
                                    but the smoke of our afternoon tryst

                        And when the sun bid goodbye
                              I was left alone, naked body and soul
                                 With nothing to warm but the ashes of what remained

what is that within
your chest that I hear beating
nothing but my name?
eugenisms Sep 2012
With just a smile
You break through my insanity
And for a while
I taste immortality
You're my personal ambrosia
So sweet that my life i would surrender
A cure for my hidden phobia
A drug to wake me from a dreadful slumber
I'm the prey and you're the predator
But I will never run if ever youre in hunger
If my blood could satisfy you
Take my heart to fill you too
You're the song and im the singer
If it pleases you I will sing forever
I'll do anything for you are my queen
If loving you is a mistake I'm guilty of that sin
You're the witch and im the victim
I'm under your spell but i love the feeling
You're the cruelest as it may seem
Under your command I will do the killing
I will sell my soul to the devil
For us to live forever
Nothing is against your will
If that will make you even happier
If my life you want to take
That decision is yours to make
I am in no position to stop you my love
Even those watching us from above
These things may seem impossible
They mean too much the become inaudible
But you brought life back to me
So anything for you just to make you happy
And as I hold your hand
I feel something only us could understand
There is so much more I want to do
But let me start by saying I love you

With a melody in mind
The writer started the song with a whisper
Following blindly
His fingers move with the rhythm on his mind
His nose smells the sun
His eye sees the earth
His ear hears the wind
But his heart innocently asks
"What comes after a song?"
