you bought me things,
you dressed up nice.
all i needed was your smile.
hold your hand,
hope you felt you were enough.

i slept on floors,
dreaming you would come back home.
you never did,
you never know.

i'd live a hundred lives,
just to see your eyes,
just a glimpse,
just one time.

fools follow pipe dreams,
but ill see you in the end,
maybe now, maybe then,
we'll start over again.

i wish i knew you,
feeling left alone,
my life is like a traffic cone,
you leave, and now I'm all alone.
I'll see you when the sun snows.

worth the words,
I made my own.
so i make,
my words alone.

i loved you more than you knew,
i'm scared to lose,
a single thought of you,
but losing things is nothing new.

i wish i lied,
and hid the truth.
i wish i kept my pain from you,
but loving you was nothing new.

i wish you stayed,
you kept my soul.
i loved you most,
some things I will never know.

so it goes.

a frightened moon,
saw a little bit of dawn,
not much different from dusk,
but the night took its awe.

my soul sung,
'take me home',
but the sun had its way,
and gave me just another day.

but i loved the moon,
it was always hers,
some day the stars will make it yours.

i am a man.

i didn't make that post.

i didn't sing that song.

i didn't write that poem.

i didn't make that video.

then who am i?

a cold, snowy night,

at your bus stop.

for a lifetime, i could stay.

holding my bottles,

i could be okay.

but i will never see you,

not your shadow, not another day.

so i will turn the other way,

a world apart,

our hearts remain.

spent my days,
breaking apart,
aching always,
bleeding heart.

i see you at the start,
screaming stop,
dont want to feel this anymore.

take your eyes,
your favorite words,
a famous turn,
never mine,
make it yours.

i miss your arms,
with naught to care,
loving letters,
god, who the hell cares.
