Break me down and what am I?
Open my chest and what do you see?
Am I a daydream,
A nightmare,
a memory?

Which is real?
Which is the dream?
If only tears gave answers,
I'd have them all.

We may never hold hands or kiss
and I'm sorry that I was amiss
thinking that you might someday feel for me too
if only you could see yourself the way I do

because I see your flaws and they burn so bright
but to me they're the shining stars at night
they keep me up in awe and wonder
oh how you tear my mind asunder
you make my heart beat lightning & thunder

but what really breaks the walls of my chest
is your beautiful mind of fire & darkness
you spark this passion within me that burns
you throw me for loops and twists and turns

out of all the lonely fish in the sea
you're the one driving me crazy
in my head every night and day
endlessly searching for the words to say

words I know you may never read or hear
but they'll always be waiting for you here
on these pages written with a longing heart
I just hope that one day when we're worlds apart
and maybe haven't spoken in a while
you might think of me and smile
like someone you don't want to forget
because I cant bare to lose
my lady in the valley
my daydream
my muse

The night likes long lonely hugs
burning the midnight oil with some ink and drugs
a poet alone and hopelessly in love

all I want to do is write the next line
my mind is empty but my heart is filled
if I closed my eyes my body would be thrilled
but I don't think the night should be alone
under her moon it feels like home
she takes her time whispering into my ear
talking about life and love and fear
her soothing voice and gentle touch
make me not miss sleep as much
but
at some point I have to say goodbye and close my eyes
under the night, the moon, and the starry skies
our long lonely hug must come to an end
but the sun will rise and set once again

I don't know who I am
or who I'm supposed to be,
I just want to bloom & be free
amidst all this darkness surrounding me.

Please don't tell me not to start,
I just want to spill my heart,
I was lost & broke at sea
you rescued me with love and art,
you made me see a different me,
a man I thought I couldn't be,
every time I look at you it feels like an eternity,
it feels like I can touch the sky,
if loves a drug then you're my high,
forever isn't supposed to end,
I never want to say goodbye.
