You only know
True Love
When it's
Gone.

You only know how much you
Want
When it begins to slip through your
Fingers.

You only know how
Smart
You are when you start feeling
Dumb.

You only notice your
Happiness
When you start feeling
Glum.

You only notice your good
Fortune
When others don't have
It.

You only hear the
Music
When it's never even
Playing.

You only believe in
God
When you see that the other's are
Praying.

You never know when things go
Wrong
Till the thing is dead and
Gone.

You only know of true
Anger
When someone puts the blame on
You.

You only feel
Lonely
When everyone else consists in pairs of
Two.

You only let people
Go
When you know that's it's the right thing to
Do.

You only know when a fights
Over
When it's gone too
Far.

You only know when you want someone to
Stay
After they're already in the
Car.

You only know of
True Sorrow
After it's been
Felt.

And You only know who you
Love
Till they're out of
Reach

I won't forget;
I'll always remember;
It'll never leave my mind.
It will always stay,
Even if it's to my dismay

Memory loss isn't possible;
My thoughts are unstoppable
When they consist of us two.
And that's why

I'll never forget you.

I never really cared for blue-eyed people.
Bright or pale;
A common color for the male or female.
But let my tell you a tale
Of a blued-eyed boy
Who never toyed with this green-eyed girl.
He put her head in a whirl.
Love is what they called it.

She'd look into those blue eyes;
The color she never cared for
But now she could never be bored
Of looking at these blue-eyed people,
Who were more abundant than she thought
Maybe they fought
For the same thing she was looking for;
The Love of a boy
Who wasn't the one to toy
With that green-eyed girl.

I think,
You're gone forever,
But then you come back.

I think,
We'll never be together
But then you'll speak your crap.

I think,
You're serious
About liking me still.

I think,
You're serious
About the ***

I think,
Maybe you'll be mine
In the years to come

I think,
It'll be okay.
But who knows?
Maybe I'm wrong.

I make an effort to rid you from my heart.
And it works quite well.
Though you still dominate my mind;
You're still a part of my soul.
You'll never be completely gone
For I don't want you to be.
Because I still day dream of the day
When we reunite
For I know it will happen someday,
So I'll wait.

Patience is Virtue
Something you once said.
So I take that to heart
And as a hint
To wait for the day
We meet again.

I sit here and think
Of everything we've been through.

I think about those moments
Of happiness;
Small things,
That make me smile.

I think about how
I used regret ever meeting you
And then think,
Why should I regret it?

You made me feel pure happiness.
Pure safety.
And just purity.

You taught me things,
Showed me how to live a better life,
How to let things go.

Though you may be something I can't let go of,
And though you may never make me feel pure happiness,
I'll cherish the memories of us,
When we were both happy
Together.

She sat on the pier,
Kicking her feet as they hung over the water;
Smiling,
Sarah looked at the sun setting
Oblivious
The young boy behind her.

Brendon,
His name,
Loved Sarah so.
But Sarah was off in her little world;
Unaware.
Smiling
Because she just didn't care.

Oblivious
To the
Obvious,
Sarah smiled as Brendon approached her,
A bright red blush blossomed on his cheeks,
He awkwardly sat beside her.

Formally normal,
He was a young kid
But after laying eyes upon her
Velvet lips,
And deep eyes
He knew that his Destiny
Lied
With her.
Inspiration from the Panic! At the Disco song: Sarah Smiles.
