Is this heaven
Is this hell
Do you love me
I can’t tell

I am stuck
Teetering on the brink
I am living in muck
And I’m starting to sink

What is this place
Who have I become
I can’t feel my face
I am numb

What am I to do
How can I escape
I could call out to you
But I fear it’s too late

Why I am forsaken
Why am I alone
My love was taken
Now my heart is stone

"Oh no, my lady. This is your bed”
Purr
“Thank you for allowing me to sleep here”
Mrow
“Of course! That is such urgent news that needs to be conveyed at 1 in the morning”
Purr
“Thank you, my queen, my goddess, my reason for existence”
Meow
“for repeatedly cleaning one spot on my thumb”
Mreooow
“Goodnight”
MRAAAeowaaah

Say it softly
And it’s almost
Like praying

When I speak your name
It is a prayer

To who?

Your name slips out
And with it the thought of you

Your smile lighting up everything
Your eyes keeping me still
Your words leaving me speechless
Your breath taking mine

You
Your name

When I say it softly
In the moments before I sleep
A tether to the world
Until I remember
You are in my dreams too

Or in the moments, minutes, hours, lifetimes
When I can not sleep
When I am the only one awake
And all I can think of is
You

Or in the morning when the sun
Wakes me up
And I think I see your face
So I call out to you
But you are not there
Maybe it was only the
Whisper of a dream I can’t remember

Catch me if you can
Said the girl
Are you a boy or are you a man?

I am a man
Said the boy
And I can
Catch you!

He said as she ran

They say the eyes are the
Windows to the soul
If that is true
What will mine tell you
That they have not already told?

I was lost but now I’m found
You pulled me up out of the darkness
Right before I drowned

When I’m feeling alone
Or broken inside
You fix my pieces
You make me right

You make me smile
When I want to cry
You make me want to live
When I want to die

You dance with me
In the best of times
And hold me in the worst
Rain or shine
You make me feel alive
And I know you are mine

You make me happy
You make me believe
You make me whole
You are all I see

When you kiss me
I swear that you stop Time
And all I can think is
You are mine

I love the sun
That warms the ground
I love the sea
Where I am found

I love the children
Fair of face
I love the cats
Full of grace

I love the dogs
Loyal and true
I love all the
Shades of blue

I love the birds
That sing when I’m near
I love my parents
Who hold me so dear

I love the woods
That make me feel
I love the darkness
That is so real

I love my friends
Who make me laugh
I love the feeling
Of a nice hot bath

I love the winds
That runs through my hair
I love to read
In a comfy chair

I love the rain
That makes me cold
I love the dusk
That makes me bold

I love the moon and stars
That always shine so bright
I love the sunny days
And the moonless nights

I love the pain that
Makes happiness more
I love walking barefoot
On a rocky shore

I love everything
I love it all
I know it is there to catch me
When I fall

I'm barely breathing, barely breathing
How can you not tell?
I'm barely breathing, barely breathing
Can you see how far I've fell?

My heart is thumping, heart is thumping
How can you not hear?
My heart is thumping, heart is thumping
It happens when you're near

My legs are shaking, legs are shaking
How can you not see?
My legs are shaking, legs are shaking
It started when you smiled at me

My breathing falters, breathing falters
whenever you pull me close
My breathing falters, breathing falter
Now we are nose to nose

I love you so much, love you so much
So much that it hurts
I love you so much, love you so much
when you say it back you make it worse

I know you love me, know you love me
I know it from everything you do
I know you love me, know you love me
It will be just me and you
