Is it wrong to want to see you
to know just where we stand
To take a walk along the beach
together hand in hand.

To talk about each other
and say just what we feel
about this and that and everything
just the thought seems so surreal

Is it possible to find someone
who's both a lover and a friend
As our boundaries of discussion
have no limits, have no end

And that for me, well its a first
to be so open, laid so bare
yet without slightest hesitation
we let ourselves be guided there

I cant help but think and wonder,
as I sit here on the sand
when we'll walk here together
you and I just hand in hand.

I love you my dear
Can't you tell by the things I say?
The way I smile just seeing your face?
You're good for me and I love what you do
And how the best of you highlights the good in me too
Things can't always be sunshine
Sometimes things will feel like rain
But with you, there's an umbrella
And a place to escape the pain.

You're a God-sent blessing to me
With you I am full of ecstasy
Nothing compares to your smile
Or the kisses you give me so freely
You've got me wrapped around your finger
Funny how you think it's the other way around
In reality, I'm just amazed that you're here,
That you love me is enough to erase any frown.

I don't always say and do the best things
And I know I can be frustrating
I know you tire of my games
Demanding you give me what I want
But I worry when things aren't how I plan
Even when I drive you insane
Please remember that you mean the world to me

It scares me when you call me perfection
That's not what I see the mirror reflecting
But when you say you love me
Things that are scary go away
You take the worst parts of me
And you love me anyway.

We're both really young
With a lot we must learn
We will probably make a few stupid turns
But I'd rather hold on than say goodbye
You're the one who never makes me cry.

One step forward, three steps back.
The queue shuffles,
visible breath in the winter blue.
The vendor vends,
fingerless gloves clamp the steaming mug.
Grunts and groans alike,
the warmth fills the withered corpses pale.

A gaze is cast,
into the misty nothing that inhabits the park.
A twitter is heard amongst the frosty masts.

Eyes meet with a rufescent-chested bird.

These same eyes are then met with salt,
a sorrow, a pang of jealousy.
A sheer longing for that same freedom.

I wasn't sure what to make
of this intergalactic space war.
With flying soldiers in old tobacco tins
and bullets made out of fingers.
I took it upon myself, I suppose
to conscript to this chaos,
upon the fluffy terrain.
Some sort of tyrannous Tyrannosaurus,
with a purple top hat
had taken over the bunk bed fort.

I'd made up my mind.
The only thing for it was a straight "Neeeeee-owwwwwwww"
into the back of the villainous lizard.

My comrade in arms however,
felt I wasn't quite suited for this rampant combat.
Although, his reason I didn't quite agree with;

"You're doing it wrong" he said, rather patronisingly.

I guess my little cousin is less of the kamikaze type and more of the tactical warfare nature.

As time flows around
History steps out of bound
As we try to gather in memory
All those things that made us happy

But what makes us happy really?
Is it money, or maybe some sweet honey?
As we try to figure it out
We're missing what's life really all about

All those little things that make you smile
Every single moments that was worthwhile
All those things you only remember
Once all is settled and over.

But why can't we live happy
With what we got already
We try to make our life better
By changing what really matters

Maybe it is destiny
Maybe we just like to be in agony
But no matter how we loose it
One day or the other, we regret it

The only way to learn
Is by making those stupid turns
And go off the road, untold
What is about the be unfold

No such thing as a time machine
No such thing as a medicine
Time can't even cure this disease
Nothing can bring you at ease

In the end we all finally know
Thru this road we weren't suppose to go
And that we'll never be as happy
As we once used to be.
