zoomed through decades
gone in a blink
travelling this universe
however did I keep up
how on Earth
do I keep going

I close my eyes
To visualize
A romanticized
Big picture prize
Then realize
To my surprise
It's all been lies
And I have to comfort my soul as it cries

I rarely smile
but once in a while I may admire your style
I may purse my lips
As your head will bow
I'll make you woo,
How about now?

I'm learning a lot
Finding out what it means to be loved
I'm confused because it's not by the person I thought
But I'm trusting that even when I'm surprised, You're not
It was exhausting praying for someone who wasn't there
Made more difficult by the fact that he didn't care
Paid attention just too days too late
After I waited two years for that date
Nothing you do is pointless
But honestly I'm still figuring out what the point was
Pushing me to step out in faith
Not for an outcome or for the hell of the chase
But to realize giving you my heart is never a waste
Because what I actually wanted hadn't yet entered the page
And the man for me to love was really two years away
I'm thankful I didn't give anyone else that part to play
I'm thankful that you helped me to wait
I think you were teaching me to trust my doubt
But to never let it outweigh my faith
You gave me a discerning mind as a tool not a weight
And a hear that can dream and doesn't like to play it safe
So once again, I surrender my heart
Putting it in your hands to love you'll have me love
Because I've learned that though it can me painful at times
You never disappoint

I don’t want to.
But I’ll give it a chance,
In case it surprises me.

This is so unexpected
What ever you are serving I am eating.
A steak fillet served soft, with the taste of your lips.
Green and red peppers seared hot,
Over open flame.
A special marinade blend, severed with wine.
I'm sure the first bite will melt in my mouth.
Grabbing knife and fork.
The juices filling my mouth, as succulent as you.
Crossing my mind with every bite.
Imagining you on the other end
Filling my mouth.
Unexpected that you'd call.
Are you more surprised that I picked up.
What ever you want to do.
What ever you are serving, I am eating.
Long as I'm with you

You left me in the dark
just for me to know
I was in the shadow too.
After all I'm not surprised
I recognize
you must carry on.
Now that the thunder starts
I might let you know
that you could have done better.
I said things I shouldn't
and didn't say other things
that I should have.
I don't know if I feel relieved
or sad in a way that makes me
go to the heartbreak hotel.

New place,
New pace.
I'm now ready to face
My new race.
Now I've set my game
I don't care about fame
I wont let anything stop me
I will be who I want to be.
The atmosphere suddenly changed...
The air feels strange....
My heart starts to beat fast
I can't believe this, I saw you at last.
I didn't saw that one comming...
About you, I know nothing...
Meeting you again was unexpected,
Being in the same school was not intended...
Time has passed...
But my feelings still last,
I promise I never felt lust
I can assure you, you can give me your trust.
This is so stupid!!
With you, I got hit hard by cupid...
I don't think this is puppy love...
I guess to you, I truly am inlove.
Im sorry,
There is nothing to worry.
Just stay off my sight,
For you, my feelings, I will stop it and fight.

I am surprised to
see you waiting for me here
like I'm worth your time
I am surprised to
find that you still care enough
to remember me
I am surprised to
see my clear glass heart mending
and I am happy

"This one ain't about you"
He says trying to rescue his pride
"This one ain't about who?"
She says, smiling on the inside
"It's just me creating art! My tools to distract, to endear, to have fun."
"It's OK to think you are smart my love, but it's a fool who thinks all others are dumb"

To my surprise I got a call from a friend I haven't heard from in a long time,
Ecstatic, I was filled with instant delight.
Before I could say another word
she told me that she had a gift for me that in the utmost urgency I had to come get it.
A few moments later she sent a text message. One filled with the utmost emphasis of now,
When I showed up she had a sneaky grin on her face
Hands behind her back
asking if I was ready.
I couldn't help but smile replying of course.
Without warning she jumped up wrapping her arms and legs around me,
Whispering in my ear that she knows how much that I love hoodies, though it wasn't much, here was one that would never fade or tarnish .
Her face becoming an hood
Enveloping my face
occupying my hands with her back

Don't be scared to feel,
Happy when you can't stop smiling,
Sad when you're fighting back those tears,
Scared when your heart is beating insane,
Angry when you feel the heat inside you,
Surprised when you find out something new.
And the most important part is;
Don't be scared to feel love,
Because it is like you finally find out something new,
You can't stop smiling and your heart is beating insane,
You feel the heat inside of you, your cheeks blushing,
And when it doens't end like you wanted,
Feel the tears stream down your face,
And know love is not a single feeling,
It is all feelings in one.

We haven't talked in a while
that's right.
I wonder,
if you ever think back
of those lazy hours
where silence felt at ease
and we laid in bed
where our bodies were entwined
yet our thoughts never rhymed.
I wonder,
if you ever wonder
if I wonder,
I wonder,
if you ever remember
that I remember,
I wonder,
if I'll ever see you again...
We haven't talked in a while
one day I am going to die
and you aren't going to be surprised...

Excitement rushed through me,
As I opened the door finding you there,
Smiling happily.

I looked in the mirror the other day.
And I was surprised to see the reflection looking back at me.
I was even more surprised when it said “Hey kid. Guess I’m the better looking one.”
