You love
If I painted happiness,
You'd be on my canvas
If only I could paint
Your smile like
The first bloom of spring
Your eyes like
The morning sunrise
You're heart like
The warm afternoon sun
If I painted happiness
If only I could
If I painted
Your love
You're love
My love
It would be on my canvas
If only I could paint

This red only does so much
For your eyes
For your warmth
My love
If only I could paint
The warmth in your heart.
This blood my love
It doesn't bring out your eyes
My love
You're love
If only I could paint
You'd be on my canvas

Your love so strong
Your faith so... Enduring
You deserve so much

I'm just not there now
I can be the one you need
We need not rush
Time may be on your side
Only time will tell

In your trust
So much pressure
In your love
So much fear
Don't confide in me
For I will fall
Don't wait on me
For I will stall
Don't count on me
I may let you down

I'm not ready to fall
I'm but ready to climb

My strength Is forged of gold
Worth it's weight.
But fragile.
So very fragile.

I am brittle.

Let me explore you
Let me adore you
I wish to hear.  
I wish to care.
You're a novelty
Better than any.
Stories untold.
Let memories unfold
Give me the chance
Let our minds dance
You won't regret
Don't you worry
Here you're safe
Let me know you
Let me comfort you
You're blooming
So vibrantly
The sun shine
Staring back at you
Open up to me.
Give yourself the chance
Let's share tears
We'll never forget.
I wish to care
Do you dare?

Here I lay
Sweet wormwood.
Silently awaiting
Oh I long for you
Joyous unknown
Do you await
The body tingling
The mind so clear.
What is next
This sweet harmony
Something surely lacks.
To feel the spirit
Hover above
But here it lingers.
I think I fear
This cords to short.  
Time or distance,
One not enough
The numbness
To great to forget
Only a taste
A reminder of a place,
Or perhaps a time
Places yet traveled.
Again you tease
Maybe tomorrow
Another chance.

Just a passer by.
Your vibrant red hair.
Just in that moment.
Your story screaming to me,
Amongst the silence.
Calling for help,
I can't help you now.
We could've been friends
You're on your own my dear.
I'm sure you were perfect.
My prefect stranger.
I wish to hear all your stories
Your wisdom your pains.
I wish we had a moment to speak.
But you took the last breath,
Beautiful grey hair you had.
Such a shame,
Stained with blood

Goodbye my friend.

The sun has risen.
Another night past.
Staring at this blank box
Wondering what to write
Doubtful as I am you will find this,
It needs to be right.
The truth seems to lack in taste.
A story seems ill in good faith.
My poems too blunt,
My words too vague.
Years spent in search of words.
Yet I've found none worthy.
I'm a victim of time.  
It just never stops
I think I'll find the words,
If you're patient you'll see.
Maybe by our next life,
I'll be a master of words.
Words spoken over again.  
I'll be more prepared.
For that I'm sure.  
I hope some time you'll know,
Just how far you pushed me to grow.
You were important to me.
And forever you'll be.
On my death bed,
There will be thanks to you.  
And if I may pass before you,
Maybe I'll have had the time to find the words.
Surely in my will.
If not then the next time we meet.

Will you wait with me?
Watch the time as it slips away
Watch life transform
Watch the sun rise and set each day
Watch our bodies as they wrinkle
Would you sit and laugh as life wreaked it's silly havoc.
Shed a tear as lives expire
Enjoy every moment as it passes
See the beauty in life's lessons
See beyond the days hardship
Remind me that nothing is forever
Never let me forget to hope
Sit quietly and wait for what's next

I want to play along
Can you pretend that these struggles are real with me?
But still wake the day after with a smile
Will you never forget that nothing is forever
Let me remind you that each morning is suffuce for a new lesson, being you let yesterday's go?

Will you forgive and forget all and see what we could become?
All of those feelings you've been holding so tightly too..  let them go now.
All that stress.  Let it melt away now.
All of your grudges, leave those at the door.  

Oh.
How I look forward to these times with you.
