The emotions of his heart rage through his faltering mind
As he pretends it’s all copasetic he’s dying inside
His ascetic hopes are forlorn, mislead
Yet his vitriolic speech is calm, yet feigned
The deceitful gaze of one who’s dead
This tormented anguish is where darkness reigns

The subversion he’s endured to show her his integrity
The staunch defense he supplies is his loves continuity
Yet truth be told to him it’s all illogical
To him the words are more unsatisfactory than death
A claim of love leaves his heart more thoughtful
Since the same claim of love still resounds in his head

Now I don’t know how well you understand most my words
But what’s being said is what you’ve already heard
There’s more to it though if you can’t really tell
But you’ll know who I wrote about hopefully
And all I’m tryna say is… umm… well…
I do love you and hope you feel the same about me…

I just wanna let you know
I really do care for you
I just wanna let you know
I’ll always be ther for you
I just wanna let you know
I’d give up my life for you
I just wanna let you know
I’ll spend all my life with you

Just because you still love him
It doesn’t change us
Because what we have
And will become
Love has said
“You are the ones”

Since we’ve started
It’s never stopped
Love’s grew
And bloomed
It’s budded
and blossomed

the beautiful finish
is this beautiful flower
I mean the look in your eyes
And warmth of your smile

So I just wanna let you know
that i'll always love you

it’s all the little things you do that keep me so infatuated…
the little changes in your hair…
the days when you want to dress ****…
and the days you dress classy…
the days when you change your make-up even a little…
or those when you don’t wear it…
the sound of your voice on a good day
and the look in your eyes on the same…
your open expressions of emotion
happiness, joy, & pain…
hell even the days your p----- at me…
and the days you caused me pain…

see honestly
it’s just everything
you are
and all you’ll be

everything I never had
and everything I’ll ever need…

I love you!

It’s really funny
I mean the things that we
Least speculate
To be happening

I mean all around us
Nobody knows
About this love
That continues to grow

They see that we
Won’t give this up
But don’t understand
That we ARE in love

Just think like this
When I bring the ring
And drop to one knee
What will they think

Who cares really
When they’re so simplistic
Desiring not true love
But a hit it & quit it

If that’s what I wanted
Would I still be here
Telling you sweet things
Speaking sft in your ear

I know you’re my love
And I your’s to
My divine young queen
I mean my everything

So when all is gone
And red becomes blue
Throughout the stars you’ll know
I’ll eternally love you

I’m falling
D

Deeper into the darkness
Without my angels love to guide my heart
My mind is simply regressing.
And readdressing light as darkness
With this forlorn trust
And mislead love
Could it be lust
I’m feeling… huh?

A light in the dark
A ray of hope
Shaped like a heart
Yet formed of gold

A guiding light
This angelic thing
That’s scooped me up
And helped me free
My mind from matter
And hopes from dreams

And finally it seems I’m falling up

Into the graces of heaven
Bringing freedom from pain
and the lust of other men
I’m finally able to live for me
Since after all this time
It’s finally become we.

So protect me
In your angelic wings
Let me fight for we
Making us eternally free…

t’s like I already knew that this would happen
I knew I’d go and break you down
But if we can boo let’s pretend
That it’s just us & no one else’s around

I didn’t really mean anything that I said, I regret that letter
Because I’d sooner be dead Than find love that’s any better
I mean baby please believe in me
At least gimme a chance to replace your wings

I apologize sincerely for making you cry
I mean there’s so much more you became to me

You are the reason I don’t cry
And why I’m so strong
You’re what makes me try
& why I’ll live long

I think of you as my tears
So I won’t cry because I’m afraid that I’d lose you
& you’re in my dreams
So I don’t wanna wake up cause I know you’re not near me…

First you say yes
And we’re back together
A promise was made
That it’d last forever

Again you said yes
And accepted the ring
A light in the dark
If you know what I mean

Once again it’s a yes
But the rings come back
And I’m confused
The beacon of hopes
Ben severely bruised

next question I’ll ask
are you after someone else?
Better yet is he tryna get at you?
Or is it something coming back from your past?

My heart says no
But my mind says maybe
My eyes are fooled
And my ears say yes

But still I’m here
Looking at you in hope
But the rings is gone
So where will we go?
