safe is the sound of only one set of footsteps walking home

when your eyes met mine that first time
I felt the weight of you

the future and past met me there in that gaze
and blindly I followed the music my heart shared with my mind

days keep pushing forward
and I will keep trying to push you away from me

Is it irony that my voice is broken too

Seven days so far and my voice box is still damaged

Maybe it's because you let yourself get lost again

I'm getting so tired of finding myself washed up after months of false realities

I'm here fightinh for my bruised heart to be healed

But how can I do that when all I want to do is kiss you

It's so hard not to feel crazy all the time.

Again

How many times can a person be broken

So many of you stand and surround me, I hear my mind tell me I deserve it

I don't deserve it.

mourning of me

at what point is it ok for me to fall apart?

how do I hold us together when I can't find me?

about an hour ago my heart was drained
my days were once full of you and me
us, and then the world
and how can we make it if we never survive
the time and space between us

Anything

She comes only when she feels welcome
Beyond the doubts and fears that float at the surface of my mind
She says we can do and be anything
As long as we have each other
As long as this heart still has a beat

The world hasn't seen eyes like mine

But they will she reminds me
And the world will never be the same

Watch as I Fall Apart

I remember the day I knew I found the person I could die happy having loved

his gentle heart calling my rigid thoughts and showing them that life is beautiful

his eyes do lie but they could do no wrong to mine

I want you to take a good look at this pile of burning rubble
watch as it dwindles down to the last few pieces of fuel

watch as my life loses the light with which he shared
watch as my soul mourns the pieces of me that will die the day it ends

please watch
because I can't be the only person in the world to witness a love like this one

I told myself this love was my story
its strength was where I found mine

watch me
as
i
fall
apart

so am i

there are too many thoughts scattered in this brain
to make words flow like the milky way
feelings morphe into new galaxies
and i sit here in the midst of it all
wondering how my world is still held up by gravity
the sun as magnificent as ever
the moon so bright despite its surrounding darkness
the universe is happening right now
but so am i
so am i
