Your sleepy times rest
on my sofa
as I want to wake you
for another ace chat
but your snooze set form
suggests that is that.
Have a good Land Of Nod and in your tranquil most chill;
sweet steady self for more of your brill.

It is late at night again,
And you're on my mind.

A habit I've been meaning to break since then
And yet, every night this is how I find
Myself, locked in a windowless cage

Looking dazed and disengaged,
Seemingly turning blind
To ignore the key beside me
That frees me from my bounds,
From my deepest wounds,
Stopping myself to be consumed.
All of that with just a little key.

And yet again,
This is how I find myself,
Trapped in an endless cycle of you;
It is late at night
And you're on my mind.
Again and again and again.

—a.c

Lost in this place,
Born into the wrong time; a time I don't belong,
Always looking to the past,

Dreaming the same dream,
Holding you close,
Walking a golden path,

Snowing cherry blossoms,
On a warm spring day,
Rainbows shining brightly across an eastern sky,

Every night,
Stars remind me of you,
My only love,

The impossible love we once had,
The lover,
I would never forget,

You still hold my heart,
I left with you,
A thousand years past,

Waking lost without you,
Without dreams; I don't belong here, in this place.
No matter what I do, or where I go,

Looking and looking every day,
Can't find you; find the one dream I miss,
I wish would come true,

Where are you, my beautiful desire?

Always at night
When the thoughts flood my head
Keeping me up
Thinking bad things instead
I try to force them all out
Though they sneak their way in
Night after night
Again and again

first time i know you
i don't even know your name
we play a game
that changes everything
it's some ridiculous game for me
there's no we at first
only me and you
we talked
we texted
until the sun comes up again
we took photos
and send it to each other
it feels so good
it's seems so perfect
you always tell about how was your day
and either did i
we talked about the smallest and the silliest things
everyday we have something to talk
we shared about the songs we like
and we always tell about the songs we heard
i still remember what the game
it is some kind of zodiac game
and my sentence is
"would you date me ?"
i found it funny
how a game can be real
i really want to date you
i really want to be there
BUT
there's always
a BUT
in everything
Another months and still can't get you out from my brain M

i keep having
the same reoccurring nightmare
where i'm driving and i need to stop
but my brakes won't work

it reminds me of when
i'm sitting with my friends
and i see all their subtle glances at each other
each time i take it just a little too far
because i always do
always

i can never
just get my brakes to work

Now her eyes are sad
and so is his heart
that two lovers depart, oh why is this so hard
both left scarred
by the impact they had on eachother
so fatal, yet so in love
as they are connected, quite possibly by the same star
that losing each other felt like the universe just tore
it left a hole in their hearts
and a universe of forever destroyed

He is with us in our hearts and in our lives;
He is not so far away.
Reach out to him in your very breath,
Reach out and hold him in your hands.
He is with us always
To the end of the age and beyond.
He is with us always
We are never truly alone.
He has a place in my heart,
He is here in my soul,
He is the music around me,
He is the spirit that moves me.
He came down from Heaven to live as man;
He came as a human so we might understand
How much he loves us loves you and me.
He is with us at home, at work, at play,
He is beside us each and every day.
This Holy Room and He Is With Us were written during Adoration at St. Isidore in Bloomingdale. I went there on a whim one afternoon. The church was supposed to be closed, but I got lucky and I was let in to pray. It was so cool!!
