The chance you never gave me
The words I never got to say
You shut me up with conclusions
You blocked me out with ignorance
Never truly acknowledging my existence

Wasted smiles on a fool
Too much ignorance put into a name
Sick of saying sorry
You're the one to blame
The static in my voice
Shame falls down like rain
A **** monsoon

Dictations of worth
Dismissed time
Focusing on difference
Wandering souls on a path with no direction
Left out in the frost
Missing the sun

A language of change
Shedding burdens
Trust falls with no safety net
Catch me

Your breath stained my skin
Your fingertips became a continuation of my spine
Your eyes told a story that your mouth denied
A bittersweet love song
I melted in the lyrics

I looked for your horizon today
In the shower I washed in your energy
In my coffee I craved your taste
Wrapping myself in your melody
Hovering in a state of denial

I saw your smile in a field of purple henbit
I heard your whispers in the air
On the wind I floated
My hair tangled
Searching for you in the shades of cascading sun

The hum of your heart beat echoes
Like the tread of my tires pounding on the pavement
You carry me to freedom
Like the image in my rearview and the miles ahead
An adventure that needs no map
I'd follow you anywhere

Tonight I'll wrap myself in a memory
Goosebumps linger on my skin
A craving that will have to wait
Until then

Lightening illuminates the southern sky
Tears fall down like rain
Your musk fills the air
Thunder rumbles in my heart

My soul mourns for the past
For the memories that have fallen
For the loss of gravitational pull between us
The sun hides behind painted on clouds
The storm rages

Your rain is bitter cold
Not like the showers we once danced in
Not like the damp between our lips
Our rhythm is out of sync

Breaking open the sky
New developments in the weather
Clouds crack apart
As heart strings pull together

Rain drops on a metal roof
A melody of what was
A song for the stars
A lullaby to end the rage
I'll kiss the sun tomorrow

Your stare, your burning glare
Never looking at me
Examining my soul
Your stare leaves me feeling naked and exposed
Your eyes like a mirror
Mesmerizing, haunting
In your eyes I cannot hide
A reflection of what I have buried

Skeletons in my closet
Flame flickering in my soul
Thick mud, bare feet
Moving through life without living
Your light shining at the end of the tunnel

Twisted branches of my mind
Whirlwind of spirit
Captivated by a feeling
Captured in a moment
Drowning in a dream

In the fogginess of dawn
In the haze of today
In the hope of tomorrow
Your eyes dance upon the horizon
Glimmering in faith
Forthcoming truth
Questioning all
My reflection

Thighs like lava, cake that is
Stomach a serene pool, of jello
Breast subtle,  like ice cream
Two buns, of honey

Read me the definition
Tell me what you're thinking
Why am I not the idea of beauty in your mind?
More than a curve
Curved with grace and strength
Hate weighs more than faith

Have you danced with my soul?  
Cracked open my mind?
Seen the love behind my hazel eyes?  
Take a chance
Take the leap
Take the time to unravel the fabric of exposure
Taste the sweetness of my lips
Take your finger tips, trace my skin
Allow my light to seep within

More then an image
More then a place
More then your heart can embrace
Falling in love with curvature
Walking in a shade of grey
Your negativity will only break you
For I am beauty,  in every way

The hands on the clock stopped
Stomach sank, jaw dropped
Impossible expections
Invincible adventures
Washed away like hair dye down the drain
A stain of a memory
You disappeared like the sun fading into my rearview

If I told you I missed you, would you return?
Your beauty like a thousand sun's
I'm far to weak
Within our memories, I burn

Spread out across the floor on the pieces of us
Wrapped up in you
Losing my mind
The last thing to go

You stole my breath on every kiss
You danced with my soul on the thought of tomorrow
You ran with my hope
You shattered my heart
My dignity followed you out the door
Shame won't come around anymore

If I cross your mind
If you ever think of who we used to be
Today I started mending what you broke
Today I took a chance on me
