I cried,
I wept;
My heart
You kept.

Yet still
You left
Without
Regret.

one day, you'll drive by their house
and you won't check
to see if their car is in the driveway.
it might be cloudy now,
but the sun always comes back.

I wish that I could protect you
from everything horrible in this world,
but I am just a person.
I can't tell where the pain is coming from
until it starts hurting.

Tension and release
Apprehension and peace
Harmonic motion
Flowing emotion
Transient tonicization
we are constantly gravitating towards something new
Spiraling in new directions
A journey of resolution
Such is music, such is life

in ten years, I’m not going
to remember the sound of your voice
or the exact color of your eyes,
but I’m going to remember
how you made me feel
and how you kept me up at night
because I couldn’t stop
thinking about you.
2 AM is a lonely time
without you here by my side.

Building walls
Impenetrable
To everyone
Except you

I allow you in
Just so you
Can tear me apart
From the inside out

I like it when you're tired
And when your thoughts and words go
Go go go
And never stop.
They're unfiltered
So I see the true you
All your crazy thoughts
Your weird plans
               We should invent an artificial sun
                               that runs on solar power!
And we act foolish
Completely immature and playful
And I get to see your crinkly-eyed smile
And hear your hushed giggles
Whenever you laugh at the silliest things
And it's truly beautiful
