.love

always seems to start too fast
unsure smiles, an awkward glance
two hearts aligned move closer yet
like small bright white night stars connect
trace the sky with fingertips
without these things we can't exist
release the stores of still desire
it sets the world on fire
here we go...
shortened breaths through smoky haze
we tiptoe to avoid the blaze
the treetops burn, and torch the sky
tell the angels not to cry
i search my mind, for days when my
deepest dreams were realized
nights where we would start to see
everything we'd die to be
i think i'm finally free
you're here with me...

hanging on

is this what the stars had in mind
it's not the same this time
i feel me taking stride
leaving worlds behind
maybe you'll come out ahead
and i'll just crash and burn
what matters is i'm seeing clear
things i thought i'd never learn
flying by on wasted time
months shattered on the floor
i hoped this love
could stay that strong
i held on for too long
trying hard to push away
you hang on by a thread
a million more unspoken words
running through my head

endless skies

it's hard to say
how things have changed
the days pass by but not the rain
words we've said
hang overhead
an ever-casted shade
forever lost it's meaning
a jagged, blurry line
it's just a state of mind
and fades away with time
it was then i learned to wait
since then i've lost my faith
dreams and deepest feelings
get lost in endless skies
my message in a bottle
never meant for brighter eyes
now the sky's the darkest shade of gray
we push away
memories of starry nights fade
a loss for words at what to say...
