LaRyss
Freely, and empty
The space of the mind

Cares, give them up
To the one in the sky

Questions and doubt
Only block your vision

Just live just walk
Love the one in the sky

Then your true purpose shines
Yes, there's purpose for you, and for I

You sung her a song
while watching the stars
You made her believe in forever
With just one strum of your guitar

She never forgot the song
you sang to her that night
You even danced with her
You filled her heart with delight

You held her close to you
Your hand on her waist
You are the memory
She wish to erase

Bitter sweet thoughts
fill her mind everyday
When she saw you with
another girl in the hallway

Sweet and cute
you both acted
You didn't see her
You were too distracted

Quietly, She sat
A few rows behind you two
She wishes you knew how she felt
She wishes she told you

You thought she didn't like you
but you didn't notice the signs
Shy smiles, touchy hands
You didn't read between the lines

She takes half the blame
You liked her and she liked you
She regrets not admitting it
She thinks about the chances she blew

When the song plays
She remembers the dance as if a must
She remembers the look in your eye
As if no one knows anything but us

But life goes on
She'll live her life with this regret
You'll live yours never knowing
Maybe soon she'll forget
"Tenerife Sea" by Ed Sheeran
Go and listen to it. I needed to get this out of my thoughts. Its about I guy I liked in HS and he liked me back. I knew he liked me but he didn't know I liked him back. I was in the car and Tenerife Sea played. This was the song playing he danced with me. Every time I hear that song, it fills me with regret and sadness. It hurts to listen to it. I still wish told him.

I will
                                                       separate
                                                      the truth
                                                 from your lies

                                                          I will
                                                       fantasize
                                                     that we are
                                                   friends forever

                                                        ­  I will
                                                         devour
                                                       the night
                                                 until day breaks

                                                          I will
                                                          wa­ke
                                                     to navigate
                                                   my life alone

                                                          I will
                                                         protect
                                                   my shrinking
                                                       ­  dignity

                                                        ­  I will
                                                         survive
                                                  these moments
                                                         ­ so say ...

                                                     *good-bye
Betrayal comes. Life Remains.

Is it trust? Or is it pain?
Belief or a chain?
Is there anything to gain?

Those words flicker,
As sadness gets thicker,
And loss comes quicker...

Yet hope remains still,
High atop an empty hill,
With paper and quill.

It rewrites your fate...
But is it now too late?

You lit a fire inside me
And left it to burn
Now that I'm ashes
Perhaps you will learn
