your skin is the fairest night sky
with your dark, beautiful constellations and swirling galaxies
brush them against my pale earth again so i can shine

What’s to become of a setting sun that cannot be with you always even though it will return in the morning to ask your sleepy eyes if you made love to the moon?

What’s to become of a solitary moon adorned with my kisses to be sent to you each night in remembrance of the past and a hope for a dream that is so old it has borne children that have taken their place in the heavens?

What’s to become of a dry creek bed that once ran wild to your seas in anticipation of becoming one in a mating ritual that can no longer move even the smallest pebble when once boulders shuddered to think of the passion play that ruled the night?

What’s to become of the lone wolf who howled each night in your forests that have now burned to the ground with not even a remnant of smoke from a fire that consumed our past lives and is merely ashen powder with no resemblance to the beauty that he once devoured?

What‘s to become of a stone tied to a leg attached to a body that once had a heart that was held in your hands and instead is drowning and decaying under the weight of oceans that will make quick work of its flesh leaving only the chain that mercilessly did your ***** work?

What’s to become of the abandoned sailboat with clanging hardware on a mast that stands alone without a sail to catch the wind; instead left to drift aimlessly while you walk away from the dock where you dropped the knife next to the cleat where you cut it loose and set it free?

it’s christmas and you’re still made of starlight
you still shine and glow in my memories like the blooming night sky
in my mind your eyes burst with the galaxies of your soul
your skin is still filled with constellations

it’s christmas and i shouldn’t be thinking of you
i shouldn’t be thinking of your mouth and your smile
i shouldn’t think of the glint of your hair
i shouldn’t be thinking of the kisses we did and didn’t share

it’s christmas and the moon is out
i’ve had fun, of course
i’d just have had more fun with you here, love

it’s christmas and you will always be made of starlight
you are a nebula, a comet, a burning sun, a red giant.

i would never go as far as to say you are my world
but you are your own universe,
and you glow

You have a way of making me feel
like the world around me is crashing down.
One minute, I'm at the top of the world
but the next, I'm completely nothing;
a spec of dirt in a garden of roses.
Somehow you can control my every thought,
every emotion
and every action.
It's like I would do anything to keep you
but you'd do anything to get the hell away
from me.

All right here it goes let you tell you something about me
I am scared of the way you smile
Not because of you but because of me
I know that smiles lead to laughter and laughter leads to more
But soon after that you’ll make your way to the door
And say don’t let it hit you on the way out
As if anything could hit me harder than your words
As if anything could be worse then realizing what I lost
That the time and energy wasn’t just gone but wasted
Because lets be honest your words hit me like a truck
And apparently mine didn’t hit their mark
And now I'm sure your out there hitting Mark
Or john or that guy from down the road
But everything we had is gone and he doesn’t know
But what he doesn’t know wont hurt him
It cant hurt him because its hurting me
And one day maybe I can forgive you
But that day right now I cant quite see
Because I see you around and you look away
As if I’ve done something wrong
As if I didn’t give you my heart and ask only one thing of you
Here is my heart just please don’t break it
Because the pieces she left took years to replace
And the replacements don’t seem to fit quite right
And we don’t seem to fit quite right
So I guess when you said we should stop you were quite right
Here I am again though but the pieces are bigger
And I am easier to put back together
Because you had less of me than she ever did
And your smile didn’t make me melt
What it did do was remind of a time when I trusted someone
And now your smile reminds me of a time when I trusted you
And now I trust that you will never find someone like me
I am not even sure if that’s a bad thing
But I'm sure that its something and that my something is greater than yours
I know math says putting one and one together will make one greater
But one never made 1 cry
What I do know is 2 plus one is three and three is too many

It's bad
It's hurtful
It's something I don't believe in

It's deceitful
It's disrespectful
It's something I don't believe in

It's upsetting
It's ridiculous
It's something I don't believe in

It's different
It's tempting
It's something I've done

You lie next to me,
Trying to count your despairs,
And I realize we are both in wrong love affairs.

Hey dear, this is all a misnomer,
I’m not here to judge or interfere.
I just like to simmer in your presence
It’s the only I can offer tactic defense.

Don’t believe blindly in future.
Is it really going to be better?
Lend me just one more kiss,
Before we each other dismiss.
