Leaves crunching in the wind
Waves crashing into the abyss of the sand,
And the water shines an everlasting fluorescent color
As the winds play with the beauty of a girl's hair
      And sways right on through every boy's hair
I'll always remember
                  The smile you bore
                  The laughter we shared
       And even the sweet, calming voice
                  That always speeds up the beating o my heart

Images and sounds
                  etched on the sides of my mind
This is the feeling of forever
                  And I hope to the highest of heavens
                           It doesn't fade away

Though this is only a dream
It is a beautiful dream I want to be locked away in
Keep me here
Inside better places
Because waking up is a horrible truth
                                                           ­             Beautiful lies
                                                            ­            Are much better than this

The leaves crunch away in the wind
As the waves take a dance with the abyss of the sands
And the color of the fluorescent waves are complemented by your smile.
Your presence adds on to the beauty of nature
For when the earth formed
       She was thinking of you
Letting oceans shine the same brightness as your smile
Letting flowers grow the same beauty that you omit
Shaping Her magnificence into the form of you

Babe,
You keep looking for beauty
Eyeing every girl as candy
And when they leave you because of your personality
You change who you really are
Discarding things that create your beauty

If you were looking for beauty
Then stare into a mirror
And uncover what you have been trying to hide
The things you've buried deep inside
Is what's been keeping me alive
And locked away in dreams
Keeping a better place
Than living in reality
Where you chase after hopeless feelings
Continuing to lock yourself away

You're still looking for the girl
To be apart of your world
So when you've stopped chasing after lies
Find me in the pages of books of fantasies
Find me on lines of poetry
For I am the leaves that crunch away in the wind
What crashes into the abyss of the sands
I am what plays with the beauty of a girl's hair
                  And sways through a boy's hair
I am what carries on the laughter you and I share
For I am the ocean that shines the same smile as yours
I am the flowers that grow into your beauty
          I am what Earth created
          To be the dream that you locked away from yourself
          I am the girl meant to be for your world
So when your looking for beauty
          Unlock me from your dreams
          And find what shines in reality.
For I will always shine in your darkest times
For I am Yours,
                                                            And only yours.
