The End of the World

I see you around, the same places I saw you before
But it’s different now, I force my eyes to the floor
I cant look at you knowing you belong to someone else
I can’t feel my heart beat, I have no pulse
I am dead without you, there’s no light in my eyes
Only a blank expression to hide my demise
When I hug you I try to touch you as little as possible
Because I know that if I grasp too tightly I will become hopeful
The pain is too great then to function, and I become selfish
I lock myself down into this darkness to tarnish
I long for your voice, just to have you talk to me
To understand that you are everything I wanted you to be
Perfection lacked a name until I looked at you
Why cant you see the love in my eyes like I need you to
"Why does the sun go on shining? it’s the end of the world
It ended when you said goodbye"
I love you and I always will, but I don’t trust you
I cant and no matter how much I want to
I cant pretend not to love you, God let me let go
Please don’t keep me hanging on, I need to know
If it was real, or just a game
It all ended for me, the day I said your name

All my life.

I could write a million words I could bring the ink To this paper I could type until my fingers bleed But nothing will say what you mean to me And I have written about other girls Before But none have stirred my soul like you do None have made me want to dance And sing And play like a child And recklessly desperately try so hard to be near you I can hear you in my dreams Telling me you want me Whispering Humming In my ear A thousand times I've dreamt of what it would be like To be yours I've let hours waste away Thinking about your hands in my hair Twisting curls around your fingers Getting lost in the oceans in my eyes The music in your voice is a reprise I could listen to all my life.

"Big Skinny"

You stole my heart with a smile, and you broke it with a trigger pull You seemed so put together, but you really had your hands full Never feeling good enough, never living up to expectations You thought that you were failing, when all you needed was some patience And I wish that I had had that talk with you, where we share our secrets Instead of them weighing down on you, you could trust me to keep it You ask me where my scars are from, and I ask you why you want to leave Why you’re tired of being here with us, why your heart is on your sleeve You gave so much to us and maybe you took too much from yourself You, ever longing to fulfill a purpose greater than yourself I wish that there had been a better solution for you other than waiting Waiting for something better to happen, instead of looking to John 3:16 If it was eternal life you desired, then eternal life you shall get For you are the closest to any angel that I have ever met And I miss yo...

Crows feet.

I hope I give you crows feet From smiling Too often I hope that when our eyes meet Your knees go weak And your body grows heavy Because you mesmerize me The way you talk The way you walk The way you brush my body When you stand beside me To let me know you want to touch me The way you smile at me subtly In a room full of people I am the one That you look at like that And every time you turn your back I will follow I will swallow All my fear Just to be near You and your heart beating Because it feels like I’m cheating Fate If I don’t give in to the way You move me And I don’t even know if destiny Is real but I know this feeling is And it’s just too strong to dismiss
