Falling in place with the universe

I am falling in love
And I am not alone

You glow under the starlight
You're my star boy
And we dance

There's no gravity pulling on my heart
There's you pulling on my hair

I don't feel trapped at all
even with your grip around me tight.
I gasp for air
And I explode,
Explode with pleasure, passion, satisfaction

Now with eyes wide open
I see this all flash before my eyes.
I look into your eyes
There's still stars in them.
You blink and stardust falls from your lashes.
And it makes me realize I've dreaming with eyes open.

"I love you"
Neither of them said it out loud,
But they both felt it when they gasped for air
as their tongues danced in the rain.
With closed eyes and open mouths.
With that angsty feeling of wanting to run
into each other's arms,
But scared to shatter their hearts
and bruise their knees.
In the rain they stood, they were electricity.

I lost my heart a long time ago
I've been trying to find it
Around every corner.
I think it's time, to go back
To the place I lost it
Stop looking for it
In every pair of sad eyes
In every pair of toxic lips
That taste like the honey
That makes hazy.
In every grip of hands
That pin me down
And tell me lies I want to hear.
Because that wasn't love,
Love doesn't hurt
Love doesn't make you want to rip your chest open to see if there's a piece of your heart still left.
Love doesn't neglect and make you feel unwanted.

I hope my heart comes back to find me
And when it does I hope it gleams like an emerald.

My first time wasn't really a first time.
For the only thing that penetrated me were his eyes, his gaze burned into my soul and made it's nest there.
Nurtured a Phoenix that turned into ashes when he left and burned with passion every time our eyes met.
Shivers and quivers,
Moans and groans!
He took me there without having to go anywhere.
Left me high and dry and quenched my thirst right after.
I didn't want to stop thrusting that night or the night after.
The only thing that could've put out that fire was death itself, yet nothing dies in paradise.
My body might have stayed pure that night but my mind and soul were forever charred.

I was a wildflower in a garden of roses
and you still decided to water me.
You wanted to help me grow,
But all you did was pile more soil on me,
All your dirt was on top of me.
Burying me deeper and deeper
underneath.
It was so hard to breathe,
I wanted to breathe fresh air and feel the sunlight on my hair!

You stopped watering me.
I rose through the dirt you'd put on me,
Helped myself grow and now I am so tall.
You can try to cover me with dirt,
but that won't be enough.
I will always rise.

Maybe he did love me
But the drugs made him forget why.

He left,
Physically, he was still there.
Emotionally, he was absent every time.
His heart turned cold, with no happiness inside.

I left,
Physically, I walked away.
Emotionally, I'm still there.
My heart had a wide open wound, I'd given him everything inside.

I still love him
And the drugs don't help me forget why.

Where we would sit in your car at midnight
Up on a hill watching the city still alive at night
Smoke flowing through our lungs
And electricity through our fingertips.
We sat in silence admiring the view,
More than often I would look over and admire you.
Listening to Johnny Cash,
Oh please take me back.
You would sing to me,
Those were some good times.
