you're my fire,
  you give me life.

with you,
   i will not die.

you said,
    "love is war,
      i am your soldier".

i'm in pain,
     yet you never came.

you held my hand,
     and there's no spark;
     you pulled me close,
     but then you fall.

the sun is gazing at me
though tried, but still on me
i look away
i run away
still, the sun is smiling at me

“love isn’t easy” they say;

but it seems to go smoothly when you’re falling
free and unharnessed,
into pools of love
where smiles naturally find its way
and everything feels right —

until gravity shifts and tides change
and trust is lost and the pain remains
realizing your hands and chest are empty,
when there’s nothing left but that sinking feeling
that never leaves.


and they were right.

behind those sweet,
     and eye-catching smile.
     there's a story
     behind those eyes.
