I'm trying to block you out;
Erasing your voice from the night.
But I don't even know
What we had fought about.

You scream at me to go,
So I'll turn the other cheek.
But this is a tear
That can't be sown,
You said like a record tape.

Then I'll realize
I can't move my feet.
I guess I know
We'll feel the defeat,
Or maybe I simply hate
The thought
Of retreat.
- A&G

A smile so fair,
And a laugh that shows
How little you care
Of all the insecurities,
And all the impurities.

You'll just sit and soak
In the heat of the sun.
Leaning over my face,
Your eyes following
Every trace,
To summon a smile.

That's all you ever want,
To see the glistening light
In some other person's eye.
So little effort
You've never had to try.

You're simply
One of a kind

What a painful sight
It is to look out of my blinds
Only to see a blackened sky.
It smothers me in a blanket,
So cold that it burns,
Only to stop when I'm about to fold.

I wish you were here
Next to me to hold,
To keep me out of the burning cold.
To kiss the wounds away
Even during the day.
To keep the darkness at bay,
And together we'd  win this fray.

We'll let the rain fall,
And I'll hear
Your words call
For me
From a place so far.

Just follow my voice
And you'll find me,
Dear.
Come inside,
We'll dry those tears
Away.

Tic-toc goes the sound of your knock,
While I stand there at the door
And wait for it to stop.
The screaming silence echoed louder
Than the sound of your heart.

I can still hear the tears drop;
Crashing on the pavement,
Much like our expectations
Meeting with reality.

Tic-toc goes the sound of your walk,
While I sit in my corner
And wonder when you'll truly come over.

She is the sun,
That which dries
My tears
Away.
Blanketing me
Everyday
In her warmth
Whenever I stray.

Even though
The dark
Will drown out
Her light,
I know
She'll rise
Over the mountains
To evaporate
The night.

She is the sun,
My one
And only.
Whether it was luck
Or the right timing,
I know
This love
Will never be a lie.

I'm pulled in by the tide;
It's fragrant scent on my mind.
It reminded me of a kind of release,
The kind I felt when you were next to me.
I knew I was free
To not be afraid of love and its ways.

I could've been there my whole life.
At least to not lose the sound of the sea
As it crashed in a sort of treacherous grace.
Much like the way you made heart grow
To a faster and faster pace.

Yet only one thought was imprinted in my mind that night-
The drowning sense of your heart against mine.
What I'd give to be lost in that time.
