Do not stay up waiting for me
You should get some sleep
Lie down and try counting our kisses
Instead of counting sheep
Something I do every once in awhile when I can't sleep

She may have drops of Jupiter in her hair,
But it's her eyes as bright as the moon that made me stop and stare. The night I met her, she was on the beach looking at stars.
When I walked up to her, she smiled and said look! there's mars.
That night, we talked about everything under the sky.
She told me "that's where I hope I live when I die."
That moment, I knew I had to make her mine.
I would do whatever it took.
I would rewrite the stars
So that our hearts would align and the world would be ours
yes, I was listening to rewrite the stars and drops of Jupiter when i was writing this.

I didn't hear you say what you said in my dreams.
But I guess that's the way things go sometimes.
I'm okay with it though, because when I got down on one knee, you agreed to be my partner in crime.

I hear sweet reassuring voice
Sincerity and hope clutched tight
You softly murmur in my ear
"I swear everything will be alright"
And I actually believe it

everything you had said was so honest and sweet... but what I really wanted to hear was the thoughts you kept inside.

"I can't hear it anymore."
"You can't hear what anymore?"
"My heart."
"Don't you remember?
You gave it to me to comfort me if we ever drifted apart."

Your hoodie still hangs in the back of my closet...

It's been there for months

But i cant bring myself to throw it out
It's the only thing that still smells
Of your sweet cologne and shampoo,
The cigarette smoke and green smoke too

It holds the memories of your hand

And when i see it I'm looking into your face again,  as you say "I love you"
Something so often done that
I'll never again see you do

deep as the ocean
soft and warm like mornings

sweet tones like chocolate
wrap me up and pull me in

these tones and octaves
how beautiful, these sounds

im in love with your voice

in and out
up and down
push and pull

you are natural, instinctual
you are vital to me

inhale and exhale

you are like breathing
futile - alicks
Hello Daisies Mar 2020
The world is crumbling around
People are panicking
Some are dying
It's tragic
And terrfying

The stars glow seems off
The moons calm is shattered
The wind screams like a howl
So many hearts into a growl

Falling to my knees
Shaking with every beat
What do I do
Where do I go

Then I remember
I found you
You heard me cry
You let me stay
All I can say

I never thought I'd fall in love
Slowly over months passed
Your warmth is all I crave
Holding you calms my breath
I forgot the world was crumbling

That may sound dumb
As I'm not sure you feel the same
But I know you care
Probably more then you can bare
Please don't let me go
As the world may soon blow
I've finally fallen in love
And my heart feels like it's above

So let me stay
I swear I'll pray
You may not believe
But it's the deepest I can feel
To thank God for making you real
