YOU
set my cheeks ablaze
YOU
a moth to flame
As we lay here, I look into your eyes
And I picture us in a movie.
Your face is too beautiful, to not stare..
Your white t-shirt and your tan complexion
Just pulls me in.
Lie to me once, tell me you love me.
I'll hold on to those words for a life time.
As you hold me here, I hear your heart beating
And there's no other rhythm more calming.
I'm in love with you.
పొతిల్లొ దక్కేదే అమ్మ ప్రేమ
నవమాసాలు మోసేనే ఈ ప్రేమా..
నడకలనే నేర్పించే నాన్న ప్రేమ
నడతనే చూపించే ప్రేమా..
శిక్షణే ఇచ్చేటి గురువు ప్రేమ
విధ్యా వికాసమే అందించే ప్రేమా..
లాలించే ఆడించే పెద్దల (తాతయ్య,అమ్మమ్మ,నాన్నమ్మ,etc.,)ప్రేమ
నీకంటూ పరిచయమయ్యే కొత్త ప్రేమా..
నీతో సమానంగా పెరిగే ప్రేమ
నీకోసం ఉండే తోబుట్టువు(brother,sister) ప్రేమా..
రక్తసంబంధం లేని మైత్రి ప్రేమ
కష్ట కాలంలో ఆదుకునే ప్రేమా ..
నీకోసం ఏడూ జన్మలు ఉండే ప్రేమ
జీవిత భాగస్వామి ప్రేమా..
ఎన్నెన్ని ప్రేమలు రా
ఇవి ఆధ్యాంతం వర్తించేవి రా
I live for nights like this,
When nothing matters
Except the rain that parades the ancient metal roof,
Like nature's metronome, and it's begging.
It's begging me to bring out my mildly neglected Gibson
And unroot a pick from atop my dresser.
My fingers can taste rust on the strings,
And I like it.
I live for nights like this,
When I sit in my room and play lofty minor chords
To my audience of no one.
I love the scratchy pain in my throat
After I sing for hours about absolutely nothing.
The stereotypical teenage guitar player,
Not doing their homework, not doing anything
Besides putting their heart into 16 bars.
I live for nights like this.
some days i don't even recognize me

that's when i feel the danger.

i've known myself my whole life

and still my reflection's a stranger



how can i expect you to understand when i don't?

how can i divulge my essence, not knowing how it would

look, or feel, or taste, or act -

not even knowing how it should?
And am really missing you,
My head hurts sometimes,
When I think only of you,
All this time you are away.
You are my living ethanol,
The only addiction I have.
I neither feel the need,
Of any other addiction,
Nor do I shift the habit,
Towards any other being.
Baby I just talk to you,
In my head and my heart,
Baby I only need you,
In my life and my love.
It's you,
And it's you,
Just you.
This-one's-for
you-know-who
because-it's-you

Flowers rise in May of each year,
The colors so vibrant and new,
Exquisite ways to say Spring is here,
But none of the flowers are as pretty as you.
A dear person requested I write about flowers.
Crashing, fighting, surviving, breathing
sun shining. It
Could be
Worse.
Somewhere in your lecture, you say
"you have addiction problems"

you don't know how right you are
but you don't know how strong I am.

I have fought pills, cough syrup
energy drinks and cutting
and you'll never know.

but I've won.

I may have addiction problems
but I ain't gonna let morning tea turn into one.
I trust myself more than you ever have
and that's what's helping me learn to love myself
and beat those addictions.

so drag me down all you want,
but all it's doing is helping me stand tall
(and showing me what I can defeat,
by getting me started in the first place)
