I'm Trying

Nov 2014 Phantom Byron Lorde

Artaxerxes

For so long you've craved my touch
The feel of my arms around you
The warmth of my breath on the back of your neck
To feel my heart beat against yours
and rightfully so
I know that I am broken
What YOU don't know about is all of the times that I try
I TRY to hold you
I WANT to put my arms around you
I WISH that our bodies were pressed against one another
I KNOW THAT I'M BROKEN and so ...
So in the stillness of our early morning hours
window open, bedroom welcoming the breeze
the artificial staccato of rain in the air
despite my fears and to say nothing of the miles between us in our bed
I move over, inching closer to you
Blood warming, Heart quickening
Once flesh meets flesh...this should be HOT
My right foot slides across the bed to rest up against yours
I slide my body even closer to yours now
sure that you will meet me any second
warmer... quicker
And from her mouth...a soft giggle and these words

"You have all that room and I'm like, right on the edge"

I moved back to my side, without so much as hinting of the disappointment and rejection that I felt

Amazing how two people can want the SAME thing and
yet, somehow... we still found a way to miss each other
In the confines of our own bed!
(A soft sigh with a frustrated, gentle smile) Note to you:
I stopped by to see you this morning, you were half asleep I fear
Do wait up for me tonight!
Anticipation is SUCH a rush ~

forgetting

Nov 2014 Phantom Byron Lorde

Kwanele

forgetting

it tears me to pieces.
it literally ***** the life out of me.
i am already so broken; having to forget another person i love? that will destroy me.

she said ; the next one you open up too will have to pay for that.
you cannot fully forget; you distract yourself from thinking. you distract yourself to keep yourself sane.

I am on this path of destruction and it is fueled by sadness.
soon there will be nothing left of me.
that scares me. a lot.

And you stole my heart from over 5 feet away.

And you stole my heart from over 5 feet away.

My smile, is the something that catches your eye.
Then why do you always say goodbye?
You never ask the words I want to hear.
And I feel you've pierced my heart, with a spear.

I want to know your true feelings.
Knowing would help my heart heal.
Are you afraid?
Is this a decision you have never made?

I just want to know what's behind those blue eyes.
Why they glimmer, brighter than the sky.
I wish every touch would reveal a secret.
Our lips have the perfect fit.

Do you realize that you've enchanted me?
This is illegal, what I wish we could be.
But I don't care.
I wish I could just read your mind behind that stare.

We should never be together.
But I wish we could be, forever.
Our stares pass,
Through panes of glass,

And you stole my heart from over 5 feet away.
I wish those words, you would just say.

Now, i'll never be the same. (a song)

Nov 2014 Phantom Byron Lorde

Sydney Adams Phillips

Now, i'll never be the same. (a song)

I first saw you upon the stage.
With a mike in front of your lips,
And now i'll never be the same.
Never be the same.
Your lyrics flood my ears.
And I forget all that needs to be remembered.
And now i'll never be the same.

chorus
Tonight, You brought a light to my eyes.
I wish we'd never have to say goodbye.
My heart is singing that song.
That it hasn't sang in so long.
You're the culprit to blame.
Because now, i'll never be the same.

I wish I could rewind time,
Back to when you first stepped on the stage.
And that night I dreamed of you kissing my face.
I wish i had the nerve to do it just them.
But now it's just a memory.

Chorus
Tonight, you brought a light to my eyes.
I wish we'd never have to say goodbye.
My heart is singing that song.
That it hasn't sang in so long.
You're the culprit to blame.
Because now, I'll never be the same.

You've changed my heart,
and everything about my mind.
I wish we could have more time.
Let's just please rewind...

You're the culprit to blame,
For stealing my heart from over 10 feet away.
I love your smile, the words you sing, I love everything,
about you.
You can have my heart for keeps.
I've become anything, but the same.

Chorus acoustic
Tonight,
You brought a light to my eyes.
I wish we'd never have to say goodbye.
My heart is singing that song.
That it hasn't sang in so long.
You're the culprit to blame.
Because i've fallen in love with you.
And now i'll never be the same.

Visual Shrine

Trying so hard to not let you down
Making you smile, deflecting your frowns

I lost myself, somewhere on my way
But in your eyes, I now know what to say

Seeing is believing
It’s pretty easy when you have Faith

I don’t want you to worry
All I can do is promise
All I can say is sorry

At the edge of the earth I will stand
And wait, forever

I will wait for the rest of my life
Waiting for you, I will always be

My promises not empty
I swear to set you free

I see you
Can you see me?

Painting in Blue

I look at these blue veins of mine

existing against a thin layer of fair skin that does little to protect

but if it’s all I have to keep my blood moving, pumping me back to life

every second I refuse to open my eyes

then I will have to deal with it

because we’re all like paintings held up high on walls to be admired

whether we decide to be like Monet or just ourselves.

Sunrise

there may be unsolvable mysteries
but all i want to know
is why is it you that keeps me awake at night
and not anybody else
at first i thought that sunrises were all i wanted
but what's the point of a beginning
if it isn't with you?

It was started with smile and desire
In between disappear aspiration
Aggravation inhabit all
But hanker for change rebuild desire again
Now rolling on !

The Womb

The Womb

It's in moments like these
where the universe is revealed
I find myself wandering the infinite land
searching for a lover and a friend

The moments of peace
where freedom is revealed
tales of Gods and Goddesses

New music my last hope
my first trip away from home
I am me ! can't you see?
i'm real not a normal human
i'm just meat

Why am i here?
dazed chasing desires and dreams
i could shake the ground beneath your feet
but things don't look always as they seem

Lets sail this ship to escape our past
Sins that killed the innocence while the demons laughed

It's in moments like these i fly high and dance with the stars
where i'm back to the womb

but for others it's just the tomb..

Words Of Harfouchism.

If you can relate to that, i admire you

When Like You Failed to Find

When Like You Failed to Find

I heard your fingers point at metaphors
that confused your mind.
I saw your comfort become woven
around the mask you wear,
when like you failed to find.

What if I told you of those hidden scars
those words could simply free?
Would you become a reflection
of the sun, or pretend
you don't hear me?
