In my stomach were butterflies
But I had no idea why,
I loved you dearly, yet still I see
Myself franticly clipping their wings.
The world is in a state of gray
But you come in and brightly say
“Only you, my love, will I adore.”
I never could have wanted more.
For you I live, for you I breathe
My heart wants these creatures freed
Escaped from their cage, released today
My butterfly blues finally fade away
Honesty comes easily
To everyone but me.
I time my words with the waves
And hope they'll get lost at sea.
As a liar and a fraud,
I understand deceit
Yet crave it more than truth
So it is all I seek
Its 6:00 in the morning
I'd rather be in bed
Sleeping, waiting
Hibernating
For another day
Instead
Never in my life before
Have i felt this unfulfilling ache
Which rises with the rosy sun
But never seems to set
At twilight
You are the poem
That I dream to write
But fail to grasp
Each time
The words rattle
In my mind
Like chains
But somehow
They are
Freeing.
They sing a
Silent song
To me
Like whispers in
The autumn
And they are
More beautiful
Than the words
Could ever say
Why do I love you? I ask myself that everyday. Through all the hurt, all the pain, through every broken heart I still love you.
You hate the way I look at you, but the truth is that I don't know any other way to see you than as perfect. Then it occured to me- I love you so I can show you how much you are worth.
The rising storm
And the tumultuous sea
Of gray and green
Cannot be mightier
Than our love
And the sun
I look tenderly at the bluebells
For the first time in a while
I hope they know how well they are doing
How fast they are growing
And how beautiful they've become.
I know it hurts right now, love
But believe me when i say
That the cold that you are feeling
Will one day go away
And maybe it will come again
But this time you will feel
Like welcoming it instead
And that is when you'll heal
I reached into the empty space
Beside me
And felt nothing but the cold
Pale sheets
Which once brought us together
But now
Only find pleasure in tearing us
Apart
