Where in the darkness lies my sanity
Old man said to look inside of me
Ha! A well intention suggestion
But surely you can't be serious
Old man
It's inside that frightens me
For that is where the grim dwells
Attempting to navigate those caverns
Leaves most delirious
Old man where do you get the nerve
Teaching lesson's you've failed yourself
For you were young once
Before you attempted to look within
Before you were taken by the grim.

Sadness is an integral part of life
Sadness is caused by beauty leaving your life
But
When beauty leaves your life, that void is not filled by the sadness that follows
That void is left empty and life urges you to create something to fill it
That something
That you created
No matter what it is
Is beautiful.
Because it was created out of your sadness and life experience
And
That beautiful creation will life on, allowing others less fortunate to be inspired
Thus creating beauty for the world to share
Beauty comes from Sadness.

It's absolutely everyday that I see you
Walking through the same little coffee shop
Those never ending legs enter only to be followed by a  
Bold brunette take over and a heart stopping sapphire  
If only I had picked you like the flower whose beauty you effortlessly surpass
Then maybe you'd be mine  
And not just a memory in my caffeine riddled mind.

She is holding me tight
Our breath in plain sight
Her nose adorably red
From winters bite.
Our minds compromised  
From the wrong drinks made right
The liquor warms our blood
As we push off the top
And slide into childhood
Her hold begins to tighten
As this becomes more exciting
We hit the bottom and take a tumble
This is the girl I love
With her in my life, I cannot act humble.

The snow fell lightly on the already blanketed street
I tell her the cold winter air is stealing my body's heat
And I pull her close to me, embracing her beauty and her warmth
We stand as one in the middle of the dark and silent road
She looks up at me, and I tell her I was never cold.
