Happiness
Riley Jan 2015
To have

My head on your chest

Beneath your comforting arms

My hand on your stomach 

Moving with the rhythm

Of your breathing

The silence being pierced
By your wonderful heart beating

Is truly

The best feeling
Of pure happiness

That I will ever experience

Hidden
Riley Sep 2014
You left me
nothing but torn,
standing outside
in the raging storm.
I finally went
inside for shelter,
way deep down
hidden in the cellar.
I hid my face
and all of my fears,
I'm trapped inside
broken and in tears.
The daylight hurts
my narrow eyes,
the ones that leak
all of my cries.

Winter
Riley Sep 2014
The long winter months
passed by so slow.
You were falling out
without me to know.
Constant lies to
to get me by.
I used to think
i'd rather die.
Its funny how
she came along,
and everything I did
I was doing wrong.

Gray
Riley Sep 2014
My world has faded
to the color gray.
I shouldn't have
to feel this way.
My heart is broken
and I begin to cry.
These tears just
don't seem to dry.
My life seems to be
going down the drain,
and you obviously
don't see my pain.
My hopes and dreams
are long and gone,
what have I ever
done so wrong?
My world is fading
to the color of gray,
why must I
feel this way?

Death
Riley Sep 2014
Time has turned,
turned to death.
I am lost
without a breath.
The thoughts I had
began to disappear,
when I looked out,
everything was unclear.
When the world started to fade
everything I saw
made me afraid.
I began to ask questions,
in search for confessions.
When nothing came out,
I began to have doubt.
The moment my heart stopped,
my body just dropped.
Now I stare out to the sea,
and know my soul is free.
