Not all can fathom the concepts that what is here was once not and what was here once now isn't. The soil doesn't change, nor do the old trees, yet the buildings are broken down and the people soon leave.
The visuals and sights that have over time been consumed within the air still linger in our breaths.
The road was once dirt, the river once land, that home once someone else's home.
Physical attributes change yet so do the emotional ones. A place of war and blood shed will become peaceful and goodly. A place once deemed dreadful will be contradicted by time and seen as content and amicable. A person once admired and lively will become a person admired and dead.
The air doesn't change but everything else does, allowing the next people to breathe it's past in.

In twenty years from now
I don't want to be just another name
In twenty years from now
I still want to be in your life
In twenty years from now
I want someone to stop you on the street
Ask how you're doing
And bring up my name
In twenty years from now
I don't want your answer to be
"I haven't seen her in ages"
In twenty years from now
I hope you say
"She's waiting for me at home"

And if it's falling that you're afraid of,
we can hide from commitment
and convince ourselves
that we're just friends.
I'll learn the curve of your
smile and you'll connect my
freckles like constellations
and we'll pretend we aren't
falling like leaves in October.

Often, I picture us
holding hands and watching movies,
sitting on benches beneath oak trees,
hearing you laugh throughout the day,
and catching you smile,
when you think I don't see

and all I can do is hope
that when you close your eyes
your mind is filled
with thoughts of me.

I worry there is something broken in our generation;
there are so many sad eyes on happy faces.

I envy those who believe in a God,
Believe in a source of higher power.

For they are merely strange thoughts,
embarked from life by another.

"We can always rinse the surface,

But the stain will remain"

And with our hearts sinking to our toes,

And fingers entwined with none,

We ride off into the sunset.

Looking for a new shadow cast upon the ground,

And wishing on the stars,

It wont end up like last time.

Suicidal people are angels who just want to go home..

We stopped checking for monsters under the bed
when we realized they were inside of our head.

I was being pulled by this black spiral,
going further and further and further
down until,
I was hiding under the rocks of the bottom of the sea.

His skin was one of tissue paper almost; So delicate yet could tear under the simplest touch. I believe his heart was too.

Money is man made.

Hears a funny thought!

Why not just print enough for everyone?

"Life as I know it morphs into a memory more and more
as you take each and every step away
from me."

"The huge distance between us is almost as big as the need
I have for your precious lips."

"Now I know you're the reason why
my heart is broken and my tears are shredding.
You were the darkest shade of black
and
I was just a little too bright"

"Words conjure the magic of meaning"

"Why are you always,

hiding yourself in the shadows of the moon?"

"Do you ever think,

maybe,

just maybe,

we will find the place

where our dreams and reality collide?"

"Every women needs a man that will ruin her lipstick

and

not her mascara"

"One day your life will flash before your eyes,

Make sure it's worth watching"

"My thighs are too big
and
my stomach overflows,
So why can you see the bones through everyone else's clothes?"

"What has become of myself?
Never ever have I been seen like this.

You have stripped me right down,
everything on view for your piercing naked eyes.

Don't be fooled,
You have gone a lot further than the fabric on my skin.
You have been past the blood in my veins,
and,
all of my tender muscles.

Much further than the burn of my sarcasm,
and,
the shield in my blue orbs.

You have journeyed successfully to my heart,
and,
have caressed it in your fingertips.

I ask that you don't look further on and gouge your fingernails into the flesh,
ripping and tearing apart my soul.

Although I think we both know that if my final breath was drawn from that,
Your  name would still be the last word that would seal away the oxygen for good"

"If you're alone
and
I'm alone,

Then I guess were in that together"

"For some strange logic,

You seem to be the only constant idea out of all my lingering thoughts.

Oh, how I wish you were here instead of in my head"

"Hands around my waist,
Your warmth engulfs me.

Whispering in my ear,
Your secrets are my desire.

The rhythmic beat of your heart,
It demands mine to follow suit with a few skips along the way.

Your love dominating the space of the atmosphere,
Taking my breath away with it"

"You wanted a ****,
I wanted too talk.

Yet you thought you would ease into it by starting with my clothes.

You ruined it all by asking for them off,
because you thought I was just another stupid ****.

I never thought you would ask for that ,
but there it was when you wanted my ******* to drop"

Don't tell me my scars are atrocious,

You will never understand why they have been carved.

Oh, how I wish I was a child again.
So care-free and naive.
Innocent and wondrous.
Curiosity would fill my mind and all the wondering's I have discovered would complete the gaps.
New friendships would be the highlight of my day and a cut on the tip on my finger would ruin it.
Oh, how I wish I was a child again,
living life to the fullest.

" Don't ever put your happiness in someone's else's hands.
They'll drop it.
They'll drop it every time"

"Caress me as if you were holding your heart in your own hands.

Scream my name as if it was the only word

that could comprehend with your tongue.

Love me like you had never loved another in your life before"

" Yes I have left,
But there will be a time when we can rekindle our fingertips back together and dance in the darkness again.
I’ll be right here watching and waiting for when you come join me in the shadows"

"You write so beautifully" he said

"The inside of your mind must be a terrible place..."

"Falling for you was the most adventurous thing I have ever done.
Going against all of my beliefs and traditions, I dived right in.
I decided I would be the one that would search and accept your flaws along with your beauty but I wouldn't dare tell you that they look exactly the same to me.
My words can do no justice to the gracefulness of your movement or captivating sound that is your voice.
The detail of your eyes cannot be expressed as the beauty of them runs too deep and the velvet touch of your fingertips to precious too tell.
You're not my first love and you may not be my last but one thing I am certain of is I am falling for you"
