But I don't know what your dream girl's like
And what she writes
And how she walks

Is she a happy one?
Because I feel so alone
Is she lovely?
Because all I know is I'm lonely

Will she read you books
Because I will write you poems
Every day when you come home
Will she give you love
For I will never leave

And when she walks away
Look around because I stayed

Can I still call you mine
Even if my words
No longer rhyme

Will I still make
Your heart skip a beat
When my words
Aren't as sweet

When I go
Will you leave a kiss
On my lips
And tell me
That I'll be missed

Because I'll love you
No matter what you do
Go away
And I'll stay
And wait

Until you give me your heart
And hold my hand

You gave me nothing
And I gave nothing back

But why do I feel
Like I'm still giving
More than what I'm getting?

I gave nothing
Yet it feels like everything

She was the Moon
And he claimed
To be the stars
Living around her

As dark as the night
They're up above
Sparkling their borrowed lights

Keeping each other company
While everything else
Gets too lonely

She may be whole tonight
But sooner she'll be
All torn into pieces

He may be a few now
But he'll be endless
Tomorrow

Never the same
Just like everything else

You won't see them
Come bright skies
But they're holding on together
Behind those blinding lights

untitled
my heart has been
sentenced to life
behind my rib cage
and hasn't seen the
light of day in years.
tucked into the safety of your arms
held against your chest in a blissful silence
is this what heaven is? it must be,
for if it is not, I want no part in it.
Your hand strokes my back
and sleep creeps ever closer
my eyes are closing and I await the nightmares
that have plagued me for so long
but I awake some time after
in no cold sweat, no scream echoing from my lips
you're looking at me with eyes that hold such love;
I never thought anyone could look at me like that
a smile plays on your mouth, and its infectious joy
sends a thrill through me and a giggle rolls of my tongue
Your heartbeat was a steady drum that sent me to sleep
and your love was a warrior that chased away
all of the demons that crawl onto my shoulder
when sleep settles and vulnerability encloses me
I never knew a person could feel like home
but you are the only shelter i have ever felt
from this agonizing storm inside of me
I beg you, your beautiful love for me
has returned the light to my eyes and my life
Please stay?
I know you will
I know you will.
