Sometimes

Sometimes I wonder how your lips would feel on mine. I could only imagine it to be perfect.

Before you quit, TRY!

Love is how two people can fall apart and then patch it back together.

His hair tempts you to run your fingers through it
His smile washes away all the pain and causes my lips to curl into their own smile, reflecting the brightness he brings through this simple and common expression.

So many things become beautiful when you take the time to look around

I hate everything about you
you make everything more difficult than it has to be
why can't you see that I wish you were gone?

Never-ending Drought

Nothing makes sense anymore. I should be gone, moved out, not stuck inside this never-ending drought.

Let's just be happy and forget the bad days.
Let's just be who we are and leave the skies of gray.
Maybe we can't run away
but we can have fun either way.

How could I have been so naive to think you could ever want me? It's always been her.. I guess you want someone beautiful, someone perfect, someone not me.

The sky was an inky blue to the east, a fiery mix of orange, red, and pink to the west. The bonfire burned bright, sending smoke and sparks up into the air. I could see the fire reflected in your eyes when you leaned in close to talk to me. You grinned when I spoke, the most beautiful smile I've ever seen. You gave me your jacket to wear when the night turned cold and the fire burned low.

Poor, Helpless, Sad Song

This is a sad song for anyone who'll listen
This is me crying out for you
This is me hanging my head in shame as old lovers do
This is a sad song for anyone who is heartbroken

You've moved on, you're happy
You're incredible, a superstar
And here I am, searching for your car wherever I go
You are perfectly imperfect, and I am just a mess

Everything you are is ingrained in my mind forever
All I think about is being with you, being together
This poor, helpless, sad song is all I can give you
This poor, helpless, sad song is all I have left of you

When one heartbreak ends, another always seems to begin.

I miss you with everything I have, everyday, and I'm sure I always will. You're the boy who got away.

I like his wit, and how I'll never measure up to it

It was all I had, just a sliver of hope. They had to take that from me as well.

They say everything works out in the end, but I wish things would shape up now. I don't think I can take this anymore. Can things be alright again?

There are other fish in the sea, and they love each other, never me

If I could drive all night, would I find my piece of mind? Would it be a million miles of cold, white lines and unfamiliar exit signs? I'd just drive on by, just south of knowing why.

Time stands still when you're nowhere bound.

She didn't have a reason to go, oh no. She didn't have a reason to stay, either way.

October

that october night when you said you’d drive her home a part of me died.

all i wanted was to be with you, but you said yes to her instead.

you said yes to her instead, so i laid my head down and cried my eyes out.

every day since then i turn my head at every passing red car, hoping to see your face.

you don’t even know my name and that’s okay, but there’s nothing i wouldn’t give to you.

you’re so casual, and i’m so fragile that missing you makes me want to cry.

that october night you said yes to her instead and i went home alone and rested my head

promising myself i’d never think of you again.

Sometimes when I say I only want to be left alone is when I miss you the most.

I get you, you get me

I get your weird habits,
I get your music taste,
I get your funky humor,
I get you.
You get me.
Let’s get together.

i have a million things i’ve planned in my head that i wanna say to you.
but whenever i see you, i can hardly do anything but smile.
when you smile back at me, i wonder what your million things could be.

i hate to say it but my brain is a poetry organ, my heart an ever-reaching muscle, and you are a beautiful boy forever in your sunday best.

There's this beautiful chaos about you it seems I can't resist.

When I'm not with you, all I think about is you. And when we're together, all I want to do is look into your eyes and never ever stop.

Watch your step

Watch your step. Its a long way down. The ground is always harder than it looks, the water deeper. the climb up steeper. Watch your step because its so much harder than it seems.

We don't need to be anything or anyone. We can just be us.

I'm happier than I've ever been now that I know you, but at the same time I'm sadder, too. I miss being neutral.
