Stillness in the air
Just the sound of your breath breathing next to mine
The soundtrack of the mind
In that moment...
In that moment, I knew we were infinite
In that dingy parking lot
City lights dimly lit
Sky clouded over with the haze we once had
Now clear and bright
In that moment, I knew we were infinite
In that moment, we kissed
In that kiss, lying just within
I knew we were infinite
Just then, not too long ago
I knew we were infinite
My ear to your beating heart
Like a sea shell...listening to my own heart
Beat by beat, as it were
In that moment, I knew we were infinite
Not just for that moment
Not just for tonight but, for life
In this moment...
In this moment, I know we are infinite.

Shallow, quick breaths
Cold sweat drips from the brow
The four walls are a cage
And I'm never let out.

I can run but, it always finds me
Hunts me down until I can't run anymore
Corners me in this room
It is predator
I am prey.

Haven't felt safe in years
Not outside forces but, within
Fear has grown and grown
Longing to feel comfort once again.

Days of smiles are long since gone
Tears seem here to stay
Hazy sadness and crazy days
When will it go away?

A love without logic
A dangerous thing
But, when done correctly
Beauty, it could bring.

When one ignores logic
Do they have a brain?
Forget about her
All she did was bring you pain.

The pain of the past
It makes us fear the rest
Some are different than those
Some will only give you the best.

She will if you let her
Give you all of her world
For she has little to live for
A new life, you unfurl.

She'll be the bullet to your gun
She'll be the sword to your shield
She'll give you everything and more
But, not when you yield...

Young and in love
Just all shaken up
What happened to love?
What happened to us?

Rekindled flame
Red embers burning bright
No longer stagnate
Red embers of soul
Burning through
Showing to those who couldn't see
Never again
Make the blind see when the mute speaks
Make the deaf hear
Make the ignorant learn the words the mute speaks
No longer silent screams waiting in futility to be heard
The blind shall see the embers of soul
Speak on deafened ears no more
The mute speaks
False hope no more
Following for happiness no more
The mute speaks
Ramblings
on..
on..
and on..
The day the mute speaks
Listen
For there is much to say
Much to hear
Much to see
The day the mute speaks
Is the day the deaf hear and the blind see
The embers of soul burning bright within
All thanks to rekindled flame
Speak, Mute
Speak

When all those fairy tales go away
What else will there be left to say
No more lie wrought "I love you"'s
Just us two, left to sing the blues.

What happened to the old days
When the mere sight took your breath away
What I thought I'd never lose
Now a broken heart must be soothed.

If only we could have chosen
Two hearts remain unbroken
Now this bed is like a trap
Though so close, between us is a gap.

What we had was beautiful
How could we make it work, so dysfunctional
Now you've chosen
One heart remains unbroken.

Oh, little birdie, all dressed in white
Tap on my window tonight
For its your love I need
Come to my window, steal me away, I plead
This life is stale, what lies in store?
I feel desire burn down to my core
For more than this life, for more...

Little bird in white
Turning away from my window tonight.

Coming home,
I thought it'd be different this time
No more bedtime cries late at night
Lonely days be gone
I thought they were
Maybe its just that expectations are skewed.

You have your life
Do you know you have mine?
Without you, and numbed mind
I sit and I write
I sit and I cry
I sit and I stare at the walls until I die.

Boredom it is called
Ordinary form, it is not
Not with these memories on the walls
Intricate frames, look into the image
Watch as it plays scenes of the past
Each wall is covered
You'll be entertained for hours.

Hours and hours go by
Three months time
One question remains
Will I make it alive?
