Sometimes certain moments get stuck
Sometimes I believe in good luck
I re live this morning in the afternoon
While I’m in the kitchen and you’re in the bedroom
We lay in bed and you pour your heart out
I look at your eyes and stare at your lips move
You tell me all the things you’re worried about
You look so beautiful even with the lights off
People who hurt you **** me off
We spend the days making art
And the nights making love
We try to make sense of this world
These rules and religions
You tell me things I’ve never heard of
So you take me for a walk, the most interesting one
Where you tell me even the tiniest thought
I feel proud and I feel blessed
Baby, I’m telling you I’m obsessed

Our one day’s have been becoming true
I love you with all my heart, I do
One day we’ll have it all figured out
Until then I’ll hold you and always hear you out

While I don’t like to make plans
I have plans with you
Of living our dreams
You know we make a kickass team
When I lose myself, you’re the one I look up to
I’ll marry you anyway you want me to
No matter the way or the venue
Name a city or a place I’ll be there in a second
I know you’re independent, but on me you can depend
I see why you’re worried
Forget everything and hold me tight, hurry
Life is very unpredictable
But my love for you is unconditional
I look out the window
And say it’s almost morning
Your face looks like a piece of art
As you lay there and push it against the pillow
I say people are getting ready to go to work
Living the 9-5 life
Something we could never do
We are artists like animals in the wildlife
Can't fit into no routines
We are humans and can’t work like machines

Our one day’s have been becoming true
I love you with all my heart, I do
One day we’ll have it all figured out
Until then I’ll hold you and always hear you out

I'm tired of this pain
I'm tired of trying
I'm tired of thinking
I'm tired of crying

I no longer wish
To be your friend
I no longer wish
For a beautiful the end

I'm letting go
Of everything I used to know
I'm letting go
Of everything we used to be

I'm holding on to just one thing
The lesson that you taught me
That people change and people leave
A person can go to nothing from everything
Relationships fade and lose meaning

So I'll smile while I can
Cry when I have to
I might as well enjoy this
While I have the chance to

I walked through the front door
Just got home
The only thing on my mind is you
As I start to feel sore

You are at home feeling sick
That takes away my ability to think
Asking God to give me all your pain
I’m certain I’m going insane

The world seems like it is crashing
Like an earthquake, my world is shaking
I am trying to keep my calm
But all my pieces begin to crumble down

I am standing naked in shower
The water is hot, but I feel cold
Every minute passing by feels like an hour
Prayers work when nothing does, I’ve been told

I continue to choke on my own breath
My phone rings and I get a text
I see your name, feel a sense of relief
You tell me you’re feeling better
So now I can finally breathe

I was standing naked in the shower
The water was hot, yet I was cold
Every minute passing by felt like an hour
I’m guessing prayers do work, I’m sold
I wrote this when my loved one was feeling sick.

Hitting the road again
New cities, new faces
These faces belong to these places
Nothing is ever the same

You ask me If I could swing by later
But I'm not staying the weekend
Learn to love and not be a hater
Good or bad, everything comes to an end

Riding in my car
Going from one state to another
My mental state of mind stays amazed
I'm going fast and going far
I'm trying to call my mother
I'm a squirrel lost in a haze

Capitol buildings and white carriages
Breaking laws or broken marriages
Different stories but the moral is consistent
I wanna be anything but persistent

Such a rush, such a high
I'm not even taking a rest or hitting the drive by
I was here in the morning
I won't stay here the night
It gets my blood flowing
My nerves popping
It's in the mystery and dark of the night

Once you get out there, you'll see how much more there's to see
You could be anyone you want to be
Walk in circles or ride a new cool bicycle
Loose a sense of direction
It'll help you gain a new perception
One idea could change the world
Turn everything around fast and make a swirl
Shyne AM Mar 2016
You are like a piece of mirror
You show me how beautiful I am
But if you fall to the ground
And break into pieces that can't be put back together
That would be more like me
Broken, damaged and not fixable

He might not always say it, but he gets jealous too. He might not always show it, but he feels sad too. He might not always want to, but he'll do those things that you like for you. He might not always confess when he's a hot mess. Look at him, look into his eyes. Love him, look for the little signs. Study him like a goofy scientist would study about the galaxies far. Give him your undivided attention and give him everything he might want even if he doesn't mention. Give him the world and see. For once you do, he'll believe that sometimes things are meant to be.

Don't trust me
Each person I meet and conversation I have
I turn it into poetry

If you've ever been important
You've been in my words
You've been in my unfinished notes
You've been in my struggle to find the right words

If you never mattered
I never bothered
To capture you in my words
For when I do use my words
I stand still
My thoughts I spill
Time seems irrelevant
I'm no perfectionist, I always experiment

Don't tell I didn't leave a warning
I'm saying it out loud
Are you listening?
Don't trust me
Cause maybe at the end of the day
All that will be left of you will be poetry
