I wanted to take you home
From whatever may have happened
And sleep in til the late morning sun.

But by my own hand
I take a away that which I long for the most.

Why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why why

Never left my head since I learnt the fucken word
And now my own actions make it an echo chamber
My mantra
Keeps me held in

i found you
and i found this little clock
at very different times
but in the same time now

it ticks on when you feel like you cant
it ticks on when you wind it each morning
setting its motions into play so that it has a good ticking day,
like how we must work ourselves up to have our own good day
it ticks on during any dark hour
it ticks on when you need it to
when the world feels like its closing in
and getting faster and faster
hold it up and listen
steady
steady
steady

so keep it close for the times ahead
keep it ticking like a temporal anchor
keeping you steady through rough winds and waters
close to your ear, close to your chest, hold it and remember

it serves in place of me
when it feels like im too far
when we havent talked in a time
let this piece of time remind you
to unwind
to breathe
because i will still be here
and all i ask, is that you stay too.

stay strong my dear winter girl.

I stand
Head to ground
My head on fire
My heart cut by my own hand
And i wonder why

I wanna be your special one.

Everything I do fails like like rain in summer
No matter how much I try I pour
It goes for nothing like evaporating away
I can't seem to be.

Why can't I do things right for those I love.

I'm done.
I'm done with the me
Well, the new me got infected with stress and all
And a fog took me over, Irish hills lost and walking
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry that I got stuck in my head
I'm sorry I didnt see the obvious in our world
I'm sorry that sometimes I'm not all here.

But **** that I'm done
I'm done putting up with nothing but fog smoke and mirrors
I'm done with letting my brain get ahead of everything
I'm done with hurting you.
I'm done with it.

Lets begin a new chapter
Of health and healing and love
Of warmth in winter and in sheets
Of nights filled with red wine and kisses all over
Of flowers and chocolate,  proof in love
Of letters and poems and movies of adventures
Lets make our own

I'm done with the current me, bring back the old with new and let's start together
We're in this together.

I said you were my moon
I meant it and I still do.
Tides and all.

I said you were my stars
I meant it and I still do.
Forever. Warmth.

I know I'm not allowed to,
But ****
I Love you.

there are nights where i stay up daydreaming of a wonderland

a wonderland of vignetted sepia books and tea stained lips,
a wonderland where the sun hides for a while, and lets us be real
a wonderland where no one else exists
so that my arms persist on staying around you

a wonderland where my hands lay in yours
while we read sappy poetry
poetry no one else we know would find interesting
but poetry that means the world to us;

a wonderland where rain falls in my backyard on orange trees
to the setting of our eyes like big blue seas
never parting
leaves rustling

a wonderland where music plays and sways so sway with me
to a light thunder storm
and kiss me slowly
so we can keep each others lips warm

because its cold in our winter wonderland
but a little cold never stopped anyone
a little cold in life slows us down, but we put on our jumpers and forge on

so forge on
my dear winter girl,
because i know that sometimes
a house isn't really a home
and it gets hard when I'm alone
so come whenever you feel like you cant stand
and lay with me, in our own winter wonderland.

the sky is falling
tumbling...turning
like you in bed
1:00AM lost in between your own two ears
"Like thunder with no lightning" restless.

i said the universe is testing us
today it gave me a hint.
24 hours ago you old me of the earth shaking
now i saw it on stage
i saw the sky fall
night fell
and monsters came out to play.

I've said i see images of the future
but sometimes the universe shows me snippets
leads me in the right direction
and tonight it showed me the direction where we stay, where we wish upon a falling star.

when the sky falls
hold me tighter.
for today and tomorrow it may keep falling but i promise you
I'll put the stars back in your sky.
night after night.

nothing can tell me otherwise that that star fell for a reason
and that play showed where it landed in the future.
where dreams are made of.
where wishes come true.
when the rain stops falling, and sun shines through.

i am no god
but nor am i powerless
for i promise you that i will make your dreams come true.
when the sky falls wish upon the cracks to the void
because i'll make those wishes come true.
We'll stand back and say, truly, we are happy with the life we made.

wishing upon a star seems old but recently i see it in a different view
the universe shook the walls of your house
but only as recognition for shaking the ground beneath my feet
because baby
the sky is falling
and so am I.

tell me
tell me what its like to speak
tell me what its like to speak in your mother tongue with confidence
tell me what its like to be able to speak your mind without stumbling over the words that you've know since childhood
tell me what its like to weep in words that make sense
in words that they might understand
or even you might understand
the language i speak doesn't speak to me and i beg it too everyday
but ill continue learning the other ones
maybe one day ill learn one that will want to talk
so that i may then speak my mind

forse è questa.
ma non so.
I hope your language speaks to you

— The End —
