The leaves fall,
drifting to the ground
The shadows impend,
embrace and surround

Empty eyes,
staring back at me
I see my reflection,
it's mocking me

It's cold in here,
let me out
I won't run,
erase your doubt

Please,
these chians do weigh
They tether my heart,
so I must stay

I just want to see the light,
glowing orbs in the sky
I just want to feel the stars,
inside my skin tonight

This starlight serenade,
wraps me in its trance
I feel it taking over me,
It forces me to dance

Oh moonlight lover,
so high within the sea of blue
Take these chains from me,
so I may dance with you

I fell in love with the way
you spelled my name.

you said it like it could be
    beautiful
one day, and
you smiled like it was so easy
for you to leave me
    breathless.

it was.


I fell in love with the way
you said "perfect"
whenever i got a question right.

you let your eyes light up
as you grinned with pride and
you let me
    linger
in the heartbeats that defined us
like we were worth
    the promise of
    forever.

we were.


I fell in love with the way
you kissed me first.

you held me close and
you didn't wait for the planets
to grant us
    conventional romance,
and you fell into me like it was
    first nature
to have me breathe you in.

it was.


I fell in love with the way
you used to brush your limbs against mine
all-too-subtly.

you let the
    electricity
race through my skin and
you teased me on purpose,
until I could almost believe
we were something
that would last longer
    than a
    love song.

we were.


I fell in love with the way
you laughed out loud.

you smiled butterflies into me, and
you sounded like anything
that could make you
    laugh
was lovely enough
to make the stars
    dance.

it was.


I fell in love with the way
you got so excited
about all your favorite things.

you pulled me close and
    tangled
yourself up in me, and
you wouldn't let me shake loose
your whimsies, and I wondered if
we were a
    supernova
    just waiting to happen.

we were.


I fell in love with the way
you fell in love with me.

We all want happiness
But only the lucky ones get it
All we can do is hope that things turn out for the best
And hope that we are one of the lucky ones

i thought i knew you,
but deep within, you are not who you say you are.
no one knows the real you, but i found you.
i know who you really are.

i've known you for a while,
oh, how lovely i thought you were.
i opened my eyes,
i saw the lies concealed within what i believed was the truth.

you don't love me.
one day you will come to your senses,
you will realize who you really want.
it isn't me who you crave.

When out of a clear sky, the bright

Sky over Japan, they tumbled the

death of light,

For a moment, it's said, there was

brilliance sword-sharp,

A dazzle of white, and then dark.

Into the cavernous blackness, as

home to hell,

Agonies crowded; and high above

in the swell

Of the gentle tide of the sky, lucid

and fair,

Men floated serenely as angels

disporting there.
