Moon
Emily G Dhami Jul 2017
People wonder, people talk,
Oh how we walk,
How did we ever get this far round,
Without our feet touching the ground?
It's a talent to stay young and shy,
Without getting high,
You shine like a star,
You know who you are.
Two strangers in the bright lights,
I hope you don't mind the sight,
Listen to my tune,
We can share my moon.
I'm always restless,
Often breathless,
Every mountain I climb takes me further away,
All the common lifetime, every day.
No, we can't help it.  Inspired by Restless by Cold War Kids and I Wish I Knew You by The Revivalists.

Why Are You?
Emily G Dhami Jul 2017
Have you really thought this through?
Are you sure she's the one for you?
Why are you so in love,
Why are you so in love with her?
She doesn't do you any good,
She doesn't do you any good at all.
Why are you always changing your mind?
You hate her then you love her,
Are you really thinking this through?
Are you sure she's the one for you?
She doesn't do you any good,
She doesn't do you any good at all.

Price
Emily G Dhami Jul 2017
Is this the price I'm meant to pay?
For all the things I try to hide?
What is my fate, am I supposed to pray?
Is this the price I'm meant to pay?
If someone knew about these lies?
What is my fate, am I supposed to pray?
Is this the price I'm meant to pay?
To let dreams sink and drown myself deep in disgrace?
What is my fate, am I supposed to pray?

Hotshot
Emily G Dhami Jul 2017
I sit alone,
Watching waves collide with cobblestone,
Thinking of you,
And all that that you do.
A cure to loneliness,
Such sweetness,
That I don't deserve,
But you continue with verve.
My head is like the night,
But you make it bright,
You mean a lot to me,
You're my hotshot.
For a close friend J.
