As I lay me down to sleep,
I can't get you
out of my head.

Come run with me
to forever,
I'll hold your hands
till we grow older.

Smile when my eyes
are frozen,
because they're all frozen
for you.

Kisses might be far too soon,
but I'll be waiting,
our hopes and dreams
are ever in our destiny.

Let me take you
to the edge of all heartaches,
and show you
how beautiful it is
to be with.

Take this love of mine
wherever you go,
no, I don't even call it love,
I call it Geronimo.

Cozy sheets, cold feet,
Fleece blankets, thick-feathery comforter,
And a crackling fire beneath the stars,
You & me with nothing in between,
But the calm of the night & the ocean breeze.

The world has come to a hault,
Time does not exist,
It's just you & me with nothing in between.

Can we be alone,
for one second more?
I want to stay with you,
I've never felt like this before.

Whenever you are near,
my heart begins to race.
Show me what love feels like,
Hold me in your loving embrace.

And though I know, my dear,
as well as you do,
nobody could settle down,
with a man like you,

I just want to know,
for one night only,
just what it feels like,
not to be lonely.

I can hear your back crack,
in the dark.
Removing your underwear
with chewed fingernails:
You softly ask
if we can share scar tissue
and if I'll stay
despite every issue.

You try to kick the covers
off of our bed,
and ask if we can share the thoughts
buzzing inside of your head.

When insomnia erases your eyes
and disease steals your brain:
You inhale ways to die,
because you still dream
but it's not the same.

I can hear the static in your skull.
I know why you keep
the kitchen knives dull.
You pull on my fingers
so I don't forget you.
You cry on the pillows
and hope I like romance too.

I kiss your temple
during each thunderstorm.
I read you books in bed,
because your eyes are worn.
I put my ear to your chest
because I want you to see
that the air you breathe
means everything to me.

Loneliness
being alone
I've tasted it at its sweetest
at its bitterest
but nothing could match this hole in my heart
they say that missing someone
is your hearts way of reminding you
that you love them
if this is true
I've never loved anyone
as much as i love you
this ache that consumes me
shows how much I've come to love you
your presence gone from my side
my hand left empty
your scent no longer lingers near me
how is it that at one time
i could last on my own
without any real ties
to hold me down
but now i catch myself looking over my shoulder
looking for you
there's so much I've gone through
moments i wanted to share with you
But every time i looked
you weren't there
you've become my weakness
but if weak is what i am
then why do i feel strongest with you by me
you pass through my mind every day
all day
how could a one time stranger
affect me in this way
how could someone make me this happy
how their happiness can become mine too
i guess you could call me a fool
wanting something every one is telling me is not going to last
thats not real
but im gonna try
i will always be there for you
i guess being alone
has taught me how to love
and love in a way that i never thought possible
i won't ask
for forever
because forever is a hell of a lot to give
but i promise all i have to you
even if its not much to give
i give it to you

ly

aching
for the sound of
your voice

and the words
that will assure me

I am no longer

alone.

You could make my world fall apart
Or you could give me a brand new start.
Things are going up and down
And I'm fighting for something that can't be found.
Look in my eyes and tell me you're here
'Cause it almost feels like I'm losing you, Dear.
I can tell there's something wrong in the air
And all I can do is just sit and stare.
I wish you could tell me what is on your mind
Because I hate feeling like I'm deaf, dumb, and blind.
