You've given my heart a soundtrack.
I happen to like the sound.
This noise that I am hearing.
Only plays when you're around.
And when you are gone.
The music seems to fade.
But once you reappear.
The music is forever played.

Unfortunate Smile
They burnt the inside of my stomach,
as the butterflies begged to get out.
But they only travelled with the wind
as you refused to hold them.
As you refused to hold me.
How is it that the two of us can feel
so mind numbingly different,
when I only feel one thing for you.

Delusional Illusion
Last night is constantly on repeat:
You kissed me when you left
Like you would for the rest of your life
And I think I fell in love
With the way you bit my lip
And grasped my neck as you kissed me
I clenched your back as hard as I could
Because I didn't want to let you go
Since the thought of you not being near
Made me  feel sick to my stomach
And I think I fell in love
With how you poured me shot after shot
As we downed the whole bottle of ***
And the sway of our hips together on the dance floor
Felt like we were one
Maybe I didn't say goodbye because
I was scared of never seeing you again
And now I'm here in this bed all alone
Feeling the loneliest I've ever felt
Because all I want is to relive that night over and over again

By the ocean, standing alone, no one else but me.
I decided to jump, become a part of the never ending sea.
Swim far, far away never to turn back.
Swimming, swimming, swimming, swimming, on a different track.
Keep on going, far enough will always be to close.
All the failures of my past, never to be exposed.
Hurry time is running out, it is almost dawn.
By the time they notice I'm missing, I'll already be gone.

The waves compelled her to jump
To feel the adrenaline that made her heart thump
To walk right in and be comforted by the endless blanket of sea
She knew that danger could arise, the kind that sets her free
The desire to do so took its toll, she knew this would be her last chance
She closed her eyes and with a smile she got into her stance
As she jumped, she felt the world blow off her without a care
She then realized that life itself is just one huge dare

— The End —
