Outside the walls
Liv Jul 2014
Why do people hide indoors?
When there is scerene life and clarity outside its walls.
Going down a path with an unknown route, put all your worries and expectations to a satisfied mute,
Stop to look at yourself in bliss, know that one day you'll get that kiss.
Some don't think it's worth their time
But it's where they're from the dirt and grime!
How could people act so alien to the world they were born into?

Old photographs
Liv Feb 2014
Looking through old photos
You were so perfect
But I see through that now
Every time I look at you I remind myself how
I was never good enough
And the images of us together have left me
Just like I left the old photographs that now lie in the trash
Except one which I couldn't bring myself to throw away
The one of us at the snow
Laughing and having fun

Because some things are worth remembering

Living on a sea saw
Liv Dec 2013
Life is like a sea saw
There are ups and downs
And we work hard to get ourselves
Out of the down
So we can live in the rush off the ups
But the ups don't last very long
we end up down the bottom again
we stay positive and keep pushing
we get to the top several times but
Can never stay there for as long as we want
It's so easy to lose the good parts
Yet we have to work harder to get them

Wonder ahead
Liv Dec 2013
I wonder about my future love
Who are they?
What do they look like!?
I am excited for the day I meet them
Maybe I already have
I wonder what they're doing
and if they're wondering about me
It's exciting how I don't know when
I'm going to realise I truly love them
Whoever it is.
But then again
Maybe my only love
Will be my 200 cats
And I'll die alone

Last winter
Liv Dec 2013
We were in the mountains
Skiing with friends and making snow men
It snowed and we laughed
We kissed in the snow
Our  nights were spent by the fire
With me in your arms
But somehow
In such a short amount of time
Everything changed
And I don't know why.
Was I not good enough?
I fell for you as you fell out of me
And that is why I can't look at you
Because I am still in love
I won't tell anyone
You can never know
That I can't bare the sight of you
Perfectly fine without me
And I try with everything I have
To be okay with it
But I'm not

Race never won
Liv Dec 2013
Our love was like a car race
But you started first
And by the time I started you were well into it
then you got to the end
And I was trailing behind
Chasing after nothing

Shoreline whispers
Liv Dec 2013
I wrinkle my nose
And smell the salty air
So fresh and clear
I close my eyes
And listen to the waves kiss the shore line
I  try to understand the secrets it holds
Resting my head on a pine
I glance at the waves
So strong and so sure
They know exactly what they're doing
And they don't  hesitate
Where as the delicate shore is so vulnerable
And inocent and raw
The water is calm
no matter how big the waves are
It's peaceful here
It whispers to me
In a tongue I don't speak
Yet I long to understand what it is saying
Ohh the deep blue see
I wish I understood you
Knowing all you know
Seeing all you see
I close my eyes again and listen
One day maybe I will understand

Outside my window
Liv Dec 2013
Sometimes I open my blinds at night
So I can look into the stars
Until I am satisfied I fall asleep
Then dream of you
And how we used to look at the stars
So long ago now
I wonder if you ever think about me
As often as I think about you
And every star in that never ending sky
Reminds me of us
How many good times we had
And the flow of memories twinkle at me
Mocking my loneliness
Spilling the tears down my cheeks
Blurring my vision
The stars are fuzzy and I hate him
He can never know
How slowly I'll let go

Remembering
Liv Dec 2013
I looked through old notes and conversations
And realised:
I still love you, even though we didn't work out
I wish we could try again
But you do not love me
As I love you
I can hope and dream and seek
You will never be mine again
And it makes me sad to see you happy
Because I remember a time
When you were happy and I was happy
And we were happy Together.

— The End —
