I wear the smile you gave me,
Your laugh stuck in my head. 
Every where I go,
I am reminded of you. 
I can't stop thinking of how we are meant to be. 
I can only hope you feel the same.
When you hold my hand,
Or wrap your arms around my waist,
I can tell we will be together for awhile. 
Hiding from the world,
We don't let anything bother us,
Never needing approval from them
We can shine in our own way. 
Even when we are apart,
I know we will be alright,
You dont need to see someone everyday to love them. 
You are the rest of my life. 
Forever and always

I call out your name in the middle of the night.
The blackened sky pouring raindrops
Like raindrops of a broken heart.
The word is unaware of the love we share.
Our hearts beating as one,
intertwined and never parting.
Our lips made to touch.
Together we are unbeatable,
Untouchable.
Nothing will come between us.
You always on my mind,
Leaving a trail of passion.
The feeling is so natural.

I remember looking up at the stars with you, 
laying together next to the warmth of the fire, 
the heat of being together. 
To me that meant everything, 
to you it meant nothing. 
I wonder the reason why everything was said. 
Why would you touch me like that? 
It felt so real, 
so natural 
but it was just a game. 
I know you said you don't want to lead me on 
but I only said that I knew better 
so that I can have the feeling that you were mine 
if only for a moment. 
I know you won't be around forever 
and I know that you will never feel the way about me as I do you, 
but why not dream for the impossible?

I let you in,
Trusted you with my heart.
And to pay me back,
You break me.
It's expected for me to sit here and wait.
Wait for you to change your mind
Wait for the realization of wrong doing
And come back,
But I am not waiting
For you to just break me a second time.
The tears fall,
My heart breaks.
You asked me to wait for you,
But I will not go through this again.
I will not be here when you come back.

What little life we have,
We are just wasting.
Trying to make the impossible work,
Is just that,
Impossible.
Love is not something you search for
It finds you.
We found eachother,
Our fate not meant to be together.
We can not be one
When everything is resisting us.
I love you
And will never cease that feeling,
But we were not meant to be together forever

Behind her smile 
There is tears. 
Tears you will never see.
She hides them from the world,
So they do not see her weakness. 
Alone and suffering 
None can help. 
Darkness is her light. 
The sun never shines,
Because to her there is no reason. 
She only dreams of being freed of her past. 
A dream she will never see. 
She knows that hope
Leads to disappointment. 
No one can see the lies in her eyes
When she claims she is alright. 
But that is not what she is. 
Alone and weak,
She will not let you in. 
No need to let someone feel that pain. 
No need to drag more innocent souls down.

You may have heard this all before,
How I live for your heart beat,
And your looks glow like the sun,
Taking me aback.
But let me tell you.
I love you more than all the lies told everyday.
I could not live with out you.
And I am different from those others,
For I do not own my heart,
It belongs to you.
