I gasped for air
but there wasn't any left
all the oxygen in the world couldn't cure my need for you
for you were my oxygen, the only air I could breathe
and the day you left
was the day my heart stopped working
that was the day I went numb, and my body went cold

you
the sultry, soothing sound of your voice
overlies the war in my mind
masking my dark, hidden thoughts
and disguising them as soft-kissed words
instead of vengeful screams

you bring me so close to the edge, so close to breaking you
and yet,
here I am, surrendering to only you

hey my little angel,
how're you doing
haven't seen you in a while
hope I've made you smile

hey my little angel,
how're things from above
do you feel what I believe
do you see what I've achieved

hey my little angel,
things just aren't okay
I keep thinking it'll get better
but instead it's all the same

hey my little angel,
will you recognize me
when I meet you someday
in your land far, far away

hey my little angel,
make me see
show me the light
I won't give up the fight

never had somebody
love me like you
the way you take over me
is scary and new

the little sparks ignite
every time you come near me
i don't know what love is
but you help me to see

I've stayed clear
from the big L itself
nothing good ever comes from
keeping someone to yourself

but with you
i love the way it seems
i guess no one can ever stay away
from the root of dreams
ky Feb 2017
the lifeless sounds of tomorrow
buzzing in your ears
drowning out the playfulness
with dreading, unknown fears
ky Feb 2017
me
I'm just me
a person that doesn't do anything perfectly

I'm very normal
There's nothing extraordinary about me

If a stranger were to see me, there would be no second glances
I blend in with the crowd

I'm nothing exquisite
I'm just *me

oh , how i love you
I’ve made you with my own bare hands
I’ve made you the trees, the earth, the water

oh , how I love you
The way you use my gift for you
It feels almost nostalgic

Oh, how i love you
The way you waste your purpose here
With selfish and greedy deeds

Oh, how i love you
The monster you’ve turned into
Now I must return the favor
