Maybe it's the sunshine

Or the color of your eyes

Maybe it's the moonlight

Or the color of the sky

If i could freeze this moment

I would stay here every day

If i keep singing love songs

Will you promise me you'll stay

And oh,

You're the only one i see, and

There's nowhere else i rather be, and

We can't explain the way we feel

But i believe in you and me

Tell me all your secrets, baby

I'll tell you mine

We'll keep them between us

Til the end of times

Anything could happen

We don't have to know

Whatever we imagine

It's possible

And oh,

You're the only one i see, and

There's nowhere else i rather be, and

We can't explain the way we feel

But i believe in you and me

Who forgot to put the moon to bed?
For it is day
and still he looks at me.

like water
I poured myself into her until she was overflowing at the brim

like reinforced steel
I bridged my heart to hers and welded myself to her soul

like the sun
I filled myself with light to cover her darkness

like a blanket
I shielded her from the harsh world underneath the covers

like magnets
I orbited her aura until we inevitably collided

like a seed
I felt myself growing up from her

Then, like an idiot
I could tell she felt nothing.

WE
It's hard to see
Goodness
It's easy to hear the
Bad
We each fight our own
Battles
But why don't we walk hand in
Hand
It seems like we only
Hurt
But there is so much
Love
The light is just inside
Us
And together we'll fly like
Doves

Everyday
The clouds bunch up
Glue themselves in place
and sit with the sun buried infinitely beyond

There I wait,
Staring sorely at the dial
Crawling it's way
Towards the end of the day

"Good night"
I should say,
But I can't,
Dream with
Lights and
Sounds
Blaring in my head
Until dawn
Breaks
Her breath's muse
