If you come as softly
As the wind within the trees
You may hear what I hear
See what sorrow sees.

If you come as lightly
As threading dew
I will take you gladly
Nor ask more of you.

You may sit beside me
Silent as a breath
Only those who stay dead
Shall remember death.

And if you come I will be silent
Nor speak harsh words to you.
I will not ask you why now.
Or how, or what you do.

We shall sit here, softly
Beneath two different years
And the rich between us
Shall drink our tears.
When I'm being weighed down,
by your heavy rain clouds,
I feel our time running out,
Is this our finale?

I feel like I'm chasing a ghost,
Tracing you along the coast,
a preciousness I treasured most,
What are we worth?

Recently,
I find time evading me,
like a forgotten dream
and I stand frozen in time.

I want to take a train back to Sunday Simplicity,
When I knew right from wrong ,
the distinction was easy.
So I won't circumvent, or pretend
that I want crazy.
but a crazy that's simple
and I know it's what you can't give me.

You know,
It leaves me wondering.
Should He be leaving or

Should I?
I'm tired.
Of all that got to do with the thing we call life.
I know it ain't easy to reach the peak of the top.
I know.
I know that it'll take a whole lot more of tears and wounds.
I know that it'll take more than just a drop of sweat.
I know it'll take more than bruises and cuts.
But yet.
I'm still standing right here.
Not intending to move a muscle.
Not trying to make a change.
Not willing to do a sacrifice.
I know.
I should wake myself up.
So that I'll know where I really stand.
But yet, my mind said stay still and do nothing.
The constant fray of human madness
The everlasting stream of grey
The scarce glimpses of color

The people,the grey, the uniform blandness
The shuffling around on the sure path
Not being aware of the color
Only thinking about the unpierced perfect sphere

The colors,the hues,the startling difference
The souls seeing past their eyes
Staring at the colors
Thinking about the stars

Never will they mix
Never will the uniform become different
Never will the color become uniform
Ever stable the sphere
Everlasting the stars

i remember the moment i first looked in your eyes
and seeing nothing looking back at me
it was then i realised
that even though you were there
your heart was long gone
and i knew right then how lost i'd be
before you move on

if i should lose your love
shame on me
i was just too stubborn
too blind to see
that i would lose your love
just tell me
how to get you back

before its final
before you close the door
i'm asking you please can we try this once more?
just hold me tight
don't ever let go
and if it never comes around
i want you to know

i want you
i need you
can't lose you tonight
i won't do
nothing to lose you
i won't lose this fight
i'm going to make it right
Sometimes I see the motions of the trees
and think there's something they're trying to tell me
Sometimes I see the motions of the trees
and think they can hear the music I'm listening to-
and they're dancing along with me
I can smell natures breath
and I can see it floating on top of the grass
I can hear it in the hum of the insects
and can feel it as a bat flies past
Come with me into the night
we can lay in the grass
stare at the moon
and charge our hearts with light
become mesmerized by the sight
of constellations in the sky
I've layed in the grass so many times
that my skin no longer itches or stains
I've stared at the stars for so long
that my pupils continueally dilate
You are the beautiful field I'm walking through
I'm loving everything, especially this carolina sky, it's extremely blue
I didn't pick any flowers, I know you didn't want me to
so I took dozens of pictures and sent them to you
You are the sky that amazes me at night
I love the stars, and yours are bright
when I lay in the grass, you are my nightlight
now, you are the moon below the horizon line
in my mind but out of sight
When you're not here, and I know you're asleep
I wonder, is your body comfortable, are you having dreams?
does the shade over you window block out the streetlight beam?
and is everyone else quiet so you don't hear a peep?
I want you to sleep as sound as I do
knowing you are as fond of me as I am of you
I long to be strong and not do wrong
Poetic is my soul forever will I long
How did this happen?
How did I become this fool?
Who walked many paths never finding you
There is only one path I long to find
Paved with flowers for that true love of mine
Walls I'll climb put my life on the line
Its written in the stars yours and mine
For my heart longs to give in order to live
Filling all my cracks so not to leak like a sieve
I will continue on and will grow strong
Giving me the strength to love all life long
For now I suffer like so many before
I understand the pain I lived in its core
Time will pass I may not last
My strain is mental it moves through me fast
Still I remain through all I gain
Capable to love and to maintain
My emotions like the sea will never be calm
Build a boat to let me float for true love I long...

We are out of eternal bliss
Let me kiss the mauve like lips
Let me kiss the cheeks like new born petals
We are out of eternal bliss

Let me lie between your two malleable hills
Oh my love! My love is out of eternal bliss
Your body- where the pearls are dancers
The pigeon’s hairs are your hairs
Let me go to meet my maker! Let me breathe my last breath! We are out of eternal bliss

I want to feel the feelings, you feel for me,
The rhythms of my lines are calling thee
Sing the heart-beat song that transports me
The rhythms of my lines are calling thee

Open your closed eyes, afraid not- the eyes of the heart are fliers
Our fortune is unfortunate we are out of eternal bliss!

— The End —
