My hands reached out to them,
Always pleading,
My heart cried, all for them,
Always bleeding.
But my eyes were shut,
They couldn’t see that
it was me who was hurt.
Hurt, deeper than I thought I ever could be,
But there was no one, ever for me.
People came in and went by,
And I sat there singing lullabies.

Lullabies, telling the tales of
Friendships turned into hatred,
Of loves lost to the fated.
Tears shedding, as my cry deceases,
I put myself back into pieces.
Days went by since I last saw the sun,
But the love for them was never really undone.
Today, when I sit here beside the sunrise,
I see myself in the skies.
Leaning onto the window,
I sing some lullabies,
And this time, they are of
New love found and the beautiful sunshine.

I'm dreaming
of laying in a field
of wild poppies.
Their fragrance
sweet as sugar.
Their petals
softer than silk.
I imagine
them wrapping
around me,
soothing me,
singing lullabies,
as I slowly
drift up high
into infinity.
Where the moon
shines bright
guarding the heavens.
I will kneel
before her,
asking her
to hang me
as one of her
most beautiful
stars in the sky.

I'd like to whisper....
......I'd like to whisper....
                                          In your ear....
                                          With
                                          A
Shotgun.
Close your eyes
Think of something nice and serene
Just like the grandest dream
As sweet as peaches and cream
You're the beam
I keep seeing in the night sky
And i don't know why
The others didn't put you first
You will always go first
I'm right behind you
Through thick and thin
Don't throw that in the trash bin
Win from within
Not outside
Despite the contrary
The heart speaks louder than the cosmetic looks ever will

I'm overly committed
So you won't have to worry
The rest used you before
But i'm about to show them up
I'll be your best
After the tests
For the rest
Of this earthly time
How much do you love when i rhyme?
For you, i'll do it all the time
These literary critics are wise experts, but what do you think, baby?

I don't write poems to implement any advances
I write from the heart
It keeps me from falling apart
At the halftime
One more half to go
Before i shatter

As long as you're okay, nothing else here matters
I could make every day your birthday
With a new gift everyday
By making you pant in rhythm
I'll study your patterns and algorithms
And explore the senses diligently
I want to be so strong you can only ask for more
The rest of them left you by the shore
I won't hesitate
To give you what you crave
Your heart is what i'll save
And never let it go
I will cherish it
Forever
Stare into my eyes while we're inside the tunnels
That bond us together
Your iris keeps moving in a sparkly manner
And i lose my self-control some more
And rock you gently like a cradle
Singing lullabies while your breaths increase in pace
Begging for more
I gladly give in
It should be an honor to take you
And give you what you always wanted
In every single way
I like to learn everyday
So you can be the master and i can be the apprentice
Show me your ways
And i'll follow the order
This is a two way street, you have just as much authority
Just say it and i will do
In the speed of light
Deep inside
I know it's right

You always will come first
These are Badlands but you're so worth it if you're only bad for me
And i have immense gratitude for that.
I do not own you
You can walk away any time this doesn't feel like it's the right path
But i feel thankful to get the opportunity
I want to be the best i can be
I want to serve you the best way i can
I'm glad i can step onto your Badlands.

smiling though the lamps fade fast
smiling with white teeth against the night
to and fro they are dancing and
the dance is not wasted on us
white and silver marking your silhouette

touching though hands are pale
hums in rhythm to sad musicals or
distorted lullabies for grown ups
the necklace in your mouth is weeping
bleeding like my heart is now

dancing though the night's gone
the stars rock us away
he's rocking with his shirt undone
he's rocking quips and ego oh
it's a long way home from here

I kissed you as the stars fell because I knew it better depicted our love than anything else could. We shined so brightly so quickly, but like all beautiful things, we turned into shambles. I swear though, I never felt more love than our one o'clock screaming phone calls and alcoholic lullabies.

Oh my darling
Butterflies,
they fill my guts when I look in your eyes.
A heart that's young is filled with sweet surprise.
Everday I listen to the funny things you
you say.
I hope you never ever change your ways.
Let's take a wander through the world today.
I'd like all of you. I'd like to roll up in a ball of you.
There are no words to say just how I fell so
Sing to me sing, there's nothing else you need bring to me. But either way you're everything to me.
'Cause you sing to me. Yeh, you sing to me

I wish I know
The lullabies
That sing you to sleep.

Then, I'll sing them to you
Hoping it'll bring peace
In this crazy world.

But I do not know
And I cannot sing
So I'll make a wish.

I wish I could be
Even just one of the lullabies
You've always loved.
At least you loved me.

Tuck in your tired feet
inside the warm blanket we'll meet
i'll blow away your worried minds
with one little kiss i'll leave behind

no matter what happened today
no matter what will happen tomorrow
you should know that i will stay
and things will turned out okay

hey honey let me sing you
a lullabies for all night through
for every frown and smile you do
keep in mind that I love you

now now close those heavy eyes
ready to enter your dream, it's nice
na na na na na sleep tight
na na na na na turn off the light
I hope someone can make a song out of this lyric! please let me know if any of you are interested to collab with me :)
