Gravity.
It holds me down with an iron fist.
At least that's what I tell myself.
It pins me to my bed,
Not letting me get up to do anything.

I finally defeat it,
But he is not a forgiving force and he keeps pulling me down.
I want to get up,
But it's strength is more then I can handle.

Gravity.
I just want you to leave me alone,
Though if I'm being logical,
I'm not sure if you're the thing holding me down,
But if you are as John Mayer would say,
"Gravity, stay the hell away from me."

Pining for a love that never was,
I listen to the crooning voices of jazz.
Boy, you made me tumble, you made me fall,
I lay at night dreaming of lips that never met.

Pining for you, I'm sad and lonely,
This are the autumn's blues of such life.

The orange leaves outside fall,
my rain in autumn.
The wind howls through the night,
forlorn whispers of your name.

I'm pining for you,
you who made me tumble, who made me fall,
I'm a leave on the winds of autumn,
Boy, I'm howling for you tonight.
Fall, autumn

I spend my time missing you when you're gone
The seconds blur to minutes; can't keep track of time.
Life ceases to exist when I can't hear your voice;
Leaves me catatonic as I uselessly pine.

I spend my time missing you when you're gone
The months fade to years; I grow not a bit.
I spend my time missing you when you're gone;
A hole left unfilled by your sharp wit.

I spend my time missing you when you're gone
The hours turn to weeks; Earth stops her rotation.
I spend my time  missing you when you're gone;
It's a beautifully painful, endless situation.

.

I spend my time content with your company
The seconds become months I never want to leave.
I spend my time content with your company
The hours become years and time seems to freeze.

I spend my time content with your company
The weeks become centuries and I soar with glee.
I spend my time content with your company
The years become millenniums and I am set free.

I spend my time missing you when you're gone
But the moment you return; life is restored to me.
I spend my time content with your company
I am at my happiest when you've returned, finally.
im considering deleting this before i have more time to examine the feeling that inspired it in the first place because wow ew

I am only ever
pinned after
from hundreds of miles away.
And that doesn't seem fair today.

but what ever is anyway?
