it was not Hesitation But i should’ve met you Halfway Anyway It was just Miscommunication But i should not Let you Go away let you, go away. Its Saturday Night I had a glimpse of you By my side Please don’t go If you can, stay.

Saturday night
I wish I could run With you by my side Laughing in the sun No heed of bitter chide I would show you the brook The trees, the knoll and trails Path reserved for when friendship Took In time past, in timeless dell To run and jump like we did in the past Over obstacles thrown our way Even abandoned by home in fateful cast But neither of us were homeless in early day Children we were then, and still children now For hearts worn when hearts met For you is still crowned It’s smile bidden without regret Two bodies more different couldn’t be For foggy guess at worlds apart We only laugh at error made Twin souls in Natures work of art If only soul were enough To deal with natures call Or how with flame that could not ***** In sunset - friendship funeral pall Though our paths differing will not cease neither is better than the other Heavy hands do not comfort ease And fragile tidings crippled with blunder Now I see you locked away In a home of your own making I cannot-will not free you But look on from out glass, while I am shaking I wish I could run with you by my side In this field where I stand, a lonely bird. Presently distance resides And no beat is heard I want to show you the brook and dell All is seen from where I stand Arriviste prison my friend does dwell I won’t trade my portion, for foolish Demand

Autumn rain
What used to matter Now its all useless. All those those things I thought were true Seems like I didn't even had a clue. Even though I was used to the pain Cause it was the only thing made me feel alive! Now it seems to not matter It was all useless! Waking up everyday with the same burden Caught in the web I, myself had woven What it really seems Is that nothing really matters! My head starts spinning My body's shaking Thinking about what could've done! My feet starts walking My hands are reaching Desire for my world to burn! And still I am here Just waiting for you... Drowning in the pool of agony With disbelief in Separation!!!

My Sober Days
If we never found our way to each other, I just want you to know that my feeling was sincere. I could've loved you better, but it was only in my wildest dream that I'll ever have you love me back.

I could've loved you better.
The ocean Crashing rolling in the deep Turning stones slowly felt to sand Beneath the feet, and yet No one can tame the tidal crash Where the waterways collapse and meet Though many have tried How the waves of time wash over us all In the shallow end of this single life Because regardless of fear, or the deep So the morning tide will ever subside And yet never live to see the setting sun Just as the castles of our yesterday will be swept away By the water pulling at our feet So the ocean will always crash and roll With a gentleness and honest swell Resting calmly in-between Each wave

How The Tide
I could’ve done the right thing Many moons ago If only I could’ve understood How my heart, I could follow I didn’t know myself enough Yet denied it when you claimed to I was afraid to let myself in Always thought, maybe it’s too soon I knew when something didn’t feel right I could feel my skin shiver and my bones tremble I could never tell what, precisely, Whatever the truth was, often remained a jumbled mumble I went so far away to find myself Days and nights I cried in emptiness That’s when I understood myself Then it was clear that you and I are the oneness. I’m grateful for the struggle For without it, I wouldn’t have travelled so far I’m regretful for the pain For because of it, I have travelled away so far I’ve accepted my slow growth as this is who I am For because of it, I have travelled so close I admit my greatest gain today – You, For because of you, I have found myself.

I Could've Done The Right Thing
I finally met someone like me He's sharp of wit Charming in attitude Smooth in conversation Closed off in emotion Supportive in nature Understanding off loss Non-committal to admissions He is everything I have ever searched for Yet because he is such We can never be For I am too much like him, And he is too much like me So alas I'll watching him pass Just a drifter such as I Such a shame it is to find perfection, Only to watch it pass me by

Someone Like Me
We are grown ups Full grown *** adults Making out in the front seat of your car at the edge of a crowded parking lot in front of a high school where mothers are picking up their daughters from their first homecoming dance You know, like grownups do But that’s not really what we are Not here, not all day Today we’ve been movie characters We’ve been comic strip accidents We’ve been fairy tale destinies   The clock is striking midnight soon This fidgeter’s bracelet still doesn’t fit over these fat fingers Come morning you’ll be back in the castle Where princesses belong Stupid fairy god mothers always ******* up a perfectly good nursery rhyme

Grownups
your taste lingers thick on my tongue, like the wedding cake placed before me; half-eaten, and mostly smeared, as i think of what he could've done for me, but didn't

to be wed
Sometimes I wonder If we could've been If your squinty smile and long black hair Could've shunned the demons that always held me back Maybe if your quirkiness could've made me less of a hack I don't know I think to myself You and Me, could've never been Your perfection was on every level From your inner To your outer From level 1-1 to level 8-4 it seemed like my thoughts were just a locked door Preventing myself to take the first step into your world
