The Envy of Time

Please step away
From the shriveling cold
You know you're more
Than what you've settled for
Quietly moving
Because you don't know
When to slow down

I just needed to be held
Escape the world
Inside my head

And breathing
Only turns to fog
So please step away
From the shriveling cold
Kissed my lips
The wish I sold

Breathing Inanimate

Like a scented lotion lathered on my skin,

Absorbed, inhaled and taken in.

Refuse to spit out,

Caressed and dissolving beneath you.

With your eyes closed.

I'll be the one to stare.

Trace my fingers around your lips.

Wake with a kiss.

Will there ever be a time,

Where you link a chain?

Link our hearts, combine.

I am nothing else but the stone by your side.

A Founded Universe

I don't know
How I ever let you go.

You are the only one
with the ability
To make me smile.
Every single day.

All it took was a look, a kiss, a word.

But we entwine like wind and rain
Our conversations have kept me sane.

You're the sun which has found my darkness.
And you light it up.

You light me up.
You have taken me away
with you're presence.
Captured words
I never could say.

If people are galaxies, and love is the chemical
To explode us into stars
That is just what we are.

Mixing, developing, emitting all the light our souls could ever hold.
And together we have made our constellation.

In Your Arms

It only feels right when you hold me in you're arms
There's no where else I feel I belong.

Nights in Mystic Reverie

The waves have gotten far now.
Have they forgotten the shore?
I spent my nights submerged in lake
My heart not wanting more.

A time to feel the breeze
and let it take my thoughts from me.
A time to look up, experiencing
The astronomy that is holding me.

It was a kiss that was stolen,
A beat that ran away.

The waves have gotten far now.
Please don't get too carried away.

The Night of A New Year

I don't know what happened,
Or if it meant anything.

If it will..

But through the night my hand was held.
You turned to me, we walked through darkness
Unaware.

I have fear and nostalgia, and I let both of them stop me.
I am uncertain. I don't know what I want.

Even if you do, you can't help me.
How do you open yourself up to something
When everything inside you has run dry?
Everything inside has become empty.

I try to remind myself to smile,
But I have no memory of what I am fighting against anymore.

The Saving Stars

Don't get lost,
Don't turn around.

The stars are here
to save you now.

Hold on to the light they shine,
I can see what's left in your eyes.

And I know you're going somewhere,
So don't let the dark take you away.

The night will kiss you with sweet dreams,
Letting you know that everything will be okay.
