tilt your ear
can you hear
snow crunching
teeth chattering

open your eyes
can you see
snowflakes falling
winds blowing

hold out your hand
try to understand
the beauty all around
as it falls to your feet
Missy Beminio Mar 2014
remember me?
this ones for free
we met with coffee
the rest is history

you turned me around
it's all upside down
i can't feel the ground
i'll never feel a frown

this heart is here for you
you never have to choose
give reason to refuse
no brainer is this truth

have something to live for
someone to forever adore
i want to give you more
this heart is what's instore
Missy Beminio Oct 2013
running fast
fists in the air
raindrops blast
every fiber coats
every inch of me
i can't bare

growing past
the world it seems
learning nothing
every second moves
every whisper speaks
i can't bare

calmer seas
nicer breeze
mindless drones
wash upon sands
giving hope

brazen knees
climbing trees
haven't you seen
where do i begin?
Missy Beminio Mar 2017
Sometimes I will lose my way
just like you, I can betray
my heart ignores the given chance
to learn again the rules to play

Sometimes I will forget a name
just like you, I lose my game
my mind will never be flawless
just one more time it wants the fame

Sometimes I will lose my sight
no matter how I hold on tight
my soul will tend to lose the path
and just like you, I'll see at last
Missy Beminio Aug 2014
does the time get slow
give you time to feel
are you as guilty
as I am

does the sky just open up
your eyes are everything
so you can see
me as I am

does your heart still beat
or skip and retreat
so why can't you love me?
i's all I can be
Missy Beminio Dec 2015
sometimes when you meet someone
the heart beats faster
there's nothing better
I can't wait to see you again

feeling more alive these days
awake in this outer space
seeing double vision
a bird you can't touch

close my eyes and feel the sun
i feel it's only just begun
feels like summer in my heart
with trees taller than earth

that genuine smile gives me chills
I want unlimited refills
there's nothing I wouldn't give
to hold you close again.
Missy Beminio May 2015
take this chaos
turn it into light
I can't help but want you
another time

give me something
anything but your silence
it's clear you've let go
this time tonight

electric shock to start
your magic I cling to
every single part
I just keep hoping

give me a chance
and i'll hold on tight
with both hands
inside my swelling heart
Missy Beminio Jul 2014
inside I am waiting
it's all aggravating
all the pain forsaking
no more belly aching
this time saturating
the power mine for taking
it's really quite groundbreaking
the inner workings greatly
just hold yourself impatiently
while the world keeps changing
driven mad screams angrily
sitting here relating
it has to come so hastily
remember we can live freely
starting with our inner being
Missy Beminio Jul 2013
it's been a while
a couple years at least
since me and you
were anything

what am i supposed to do
if i can't have you
what else can i  say
i'm burning away

you're my fire
my everything
under my skin
where do i begin
start over again

hold on tight
with all your might
every night
i lose my sight

every day
nothing to say
I'm burning away

jokes on me
you'll never see
alone or not
you'll never be with me
Missy Beminio Jul 2014
i want your garden
sprout from the earth
breathe you in
consume all of you

i want to feel
green in my feet
in between my toes
it can't be beat

the sweetest smell
it's like the fuel
i know it all
a little too well

the warm embrace
what is this place?
it seems you've left
without a trace

who are you now
you've left me again
i feel the fear inside
purer than the water
that brought us here
it's beginning to get to me
Missy Beminio Dec 2015
hold it now
take a breath
feel the smoke
disappear

to be alone
with no regret
too many reasons
to just stay at home

someday
you'll feel my love
as you tear the fabric
off my dress

my heart is your chest
leap inside this mess
have a look
then come inside
Missy Beminio Nov 2015
he's alive like the sun
shines like a golden light
nothing can stop me
from loving him tonight

there were times I thought maybe
sometimes life can get in the way
if only just one more night here
then have my heart today

something in the flicker of his eye
highlights in the space all around
vibrating with the earth at our feet
this feeling, it just can't be beat

maybe this is all a silly dream
or steam inside this brain of mine
can't help but think of you tonight
I only hope you think of me too
Missy Beminio Sep 2015
If I sit around and think
all the times I couldn't speak
trying to fit into your life
but I shouldn't feel the strife

who exactly do you want
do you even feel a spot
in your heart for me to grow
If you felt, it didn't show

I can't bare to see you now
you should probably take a bow
you may think you've won the fight
if you feel you think you might

no, you cannot see this frown
if you think you've got me down
there's a chance you might be right
but I'll never tell you now

who do you think you are
when I think, I feel the scar
for this heart of gold will heal
because I know just how to feel
Missy Beminio Apr 2014
i cant escape
this silly idea
my only hope
it's not real

there's passion
and those eyes
there's kindness
i realize.

there's something here
i know you feel it
no need to stare
i know you see it

i want more
and then to be
more than just
some casual fling
Missy Beminio Jan 2016
sitting here inside this dream
wake up, maybe try to scream
the feeling deep inside my fear
that there's a chance you'll disappear

painting a picture in my head
of you here, inside my bed
arms held close and I lose sight
thinking of you this night

smother me with all the love
you fit with me just like a glove
this thing we have is pretty fun
when I'm with you, I come undone

never mind the lesser past
I get to be with you at last
ride you like this tidal wave
lately I've been feeling brave
Missy Beminio Feb 2017
humanity has turned away from itself
said goodbye to the inner truth
the self that feels the pain of others
listens with an open heart
reaches out to everyone
holds you close without demand

the greedy spend all the money
silencing the rest of us
leaving all the values behind
with a blind eye to the truth
have turned off the universal light
it seems we may have lost the sight

the powerful shake its people to the core
washing away all the freedoms
rinsing off leftover droplets of love
replacing them with all the lies
living life in full disguise
I will never show demise

if you choose to live this way
know that it will not end well
the last thing that we should do
is walk away from who we are within
listen to your purest heart
that is where you can hit restart
Missy Beminio May 2015
maybe I could
help you now
change your life
bring you peace

maybe I should
hold you tight
give you light
make you right

maybe you want
just a taste
I hope you see
that's such a waste

open your eyes
wake up today
then you'll see
what you can be

it's your heart
you will understand
it's beautiful here
everything is clear

forget the pain
make it disappear
just decide to
turn on the lights
Missy Beminio Oct 2013
wake up
discover who you are
break up
forever it's unfair
turn up
the music in the air

if you wanna give up
you decided to jump
get your *** over here
if you want me to be there

give in
if you wanted to win
pretend
knowing how to begin
hey you
am I under your skin?
Missy Beminio Jul 2013
everything is backwards
figuring out forwards
giving it time
finally mine
if you think I'm lost
you're probably right
so I'm getting sauced
until I see the light

everything is backwards
nothing is right
but I think I might be
finally seeing the light
head is pounding
problems are mounting
somebody save me
help me with this fight

moving forwards
heaving fog is blinding
unclear the road ahead
maybe I'll just go to bed
dreaming the future
still feeling unsure
accepting this fate
makes me feel pretty great
considering this day
maybe I'll stay
Missy Beminio Nov 2013
until I see you again
I'll never speak of you
hoping that I forget
every thing about you

things are gonna change
because I always want you
within arms reach
but you're never here

kept me awake all night
hoping that you'd be mine
giving it all away
anything to make you stay

let me forget you
turn around and walk away
because I can't bare the pain
until I see you again
Missy Beminio Oct 2013
maybe you should
give me your hand
i'll help you understand
just ******* take a stand

maybe I could
walk the other way
I don't want to stay
just let me ******* leave

maybe it's time
you couldn't stand the pain
no ones here to blame
just help me make it right

if I disappear
would you wonder where?
could you just believe?
there's nothing here but me

the edge of it all
feel the way I fall
driven away from this place
left without a trace

I'm nobody's
stupid girl
Missy Beminio Oct 2013
breathe
the sweet air
it's fresh
it's free

see
the green turn red
it's leaves
have left

touch
this grain of sand
it's rock
swims away

hear
my voice
it's sound
screams the truth
Missy Beminio Mar 2015
you can't make me fall apart
or rescue me from my fault
only sometimes a functioning adult

you can't take away my light
hard as you think you might
this is not your fight

you can't break this heart of steel
if that's what you're hear to do
you'll never make me fall apart

underneath it all I'm clean
all of these things pristine
this hard working empty machine

maybe this time it's your turn
resolution from this scream
then back to the beginning

you're reaching for the sky
pack everything you need
we're going somewhere big
Missy Beminio Jul 2013
Turned around the corner
Sneak up behind me
Pushed further backwards
Trying to loose you

Can’t reach the bottom
The empty barrel inside me
Swim with my eyes closed
Have you forgotten me

The enemy is within
Don’t confuse me with him
And so I walked from
Door to door
Another drunk and lifeless chore
Within me sets the score
Missy Beminio Apr 2019
Here I am
A new person again
I almost don’t recognize myself yet
But I’m getting there

Here I am
Lucky to have what I do
I almost don’t recognize who I was
But I’m getting there

Well
Awake, always learning
As we walk together on our paths
Every step one foot forward
Or backwards if we chose
And standing still will connect us all

Here I am
A person just like you
Feeling lost and somehow found
But the future can be bright

Here I am
Messed up over a break up
Finding myself and feeling more alive
Because that’s just what you do
Missy Beminio Feb 2014
it's my first time
alone with you
I can't imagine
what we could do
just being next to you
takes me there

why are you
so far away
come that close
if you want to know
make it happen
with me at last

something tells me
you're holding back
can barely stand
get off the track
take your shoes off
never look back

it's time you won
the time for fun
this heavy rock
stone weight inside
will never last
this thing we have
so step aside
because you're mine
Missy Beminio Feb 2014
when you long
for something more
when you dream
for something else
make it with me
keep it classy
i'll wipe away
the drifting sea

when you can't
open up your eyes
when you wish
you had nothing
more to despise
open all the doors
break them down
all the walls

when you decide
you just can't give up
love some more
have all the respect
give me hope
free from the hell
inside your shell
Missy Beminio May 2014
who am I when I'm with you?
forgetting everything right
for a few good nights

who am I when I'm with you
giving up what I believe
for that greedy primal need

who am I when I'm with you
I don't even have a clue
tomorrow shows no truth

never mind the way you feel
or how perfect this deal
this cannot become real
I still need time to heal.
Missy Beminio Oct 2013
you've given up
can't take the fight
it's real it *****
haven't gone to bed yet

goodbye for now
i hope i see you again
I listen to your song
you sang them for me

just another drone
make it disappear
will I ever belong

my imagination is there
please don't forget me
give me something here
justify my heavy fear

buried deep within
never forgiven
time ticks closer
my minds still clear

you were never there
Missy Beminio Apr 2016
slowly with my headphones on
disappear without a trace
nothing matters when I'm gone
drifting in this outer space

with my heart that's open wide
nothing here will go to waste
stupid rules I won't abide
beating through the steady pace

with my head inside your arms
warmest place is that embrace
lost inside your sweetest charms
breathing slowly for a taste

with you, I found the greatest gift
the willingness to take the fall
this way I'll never feel adrift
it seems as though I've got it all
YOU
Missy Beminio Oct 2013
YOU
make life matter
give it all a chance
looking to tomorrow
just another day
have a little faith
if it'll make you stay
come here I want to talk to you
I'll look the other way
you I'd never betray
You've opened up your eyes
begun to see the light
Try as I might
I'd love to join you
further into the lake
is it a mistake?
Missy Beminio Dec 2014
I'm saying goodbye to you
this time I mean adieu
I'll walk you to the door

my hearts been bruised
I'm feeling used and abused
It's nothing to cry about

you might feel dark
there's no hint of spark
but that can never be me
It's not what's mean to be.

— The End —
