Waiting for a Sunny Day

2011-09-17T00:12:00.000-07:00

I'll never say
that it's your fault,
for you would perish
at the thought
that any wrong
been done by you
is not deserved
by any who
should take it to
their weakling minds
to trifle with
men of your kind.

But I propose
to the contrary;
in your mind
I'd like to tarry
For no more
than just the night
so I could gain
such pure insight
into the world
of egos large
and see your life
not from afar.

But due to recent
escapades
I'll likely spend
this rainy phase
on the outside
looking in,
for now your patience
has grown thin
with discontent
that stemmed from mine
own doubts and fears
With yours, aligned;
And now my heart,
in disarray,
is waiting for
a sunny day.

One of these Days

2011-09-15T19:57:00.000-07:00

Your promises
are made out of paper
You throw them
into the wind
You take my love
by the handful
You write Us
in pencil, not pen.

You think you can act
like a child
Then come back each day
when you're through
You think that I'll always forgive you
Unfortunately
this is true.

I hate that I'm here
when you need me
But you
are naught to be found
The tide is high
and I'm sleeping
It won't be long
til I drown

But escape is a friend
to be welcomed
And I hope that
you will regret
For one of these days
you'll awaken
To see
that I've already left.

Until It's Over

2011-09-15T19:40:00.000-07:00

It's not over

Until you walk away;

It's not over

If I can make you stay;

It's not over

If we still believe;

Until it's over

I can't truly grieve.

Last Chance

2011-09-14T21:23:00.000-07:00

How many times will we be here?
This valley is bleak with despair
The weight of your words is entrenching
My lungs cannot find enough air

But the sun of the morning enlightens
Perspective more easily found
When shadows no longer are looming
My feet are now firm on the ground

Yet questions require decisions
And answers I have not
The view from where I'm standing
is clearer than I thought

So I will keep on fighting
For us, until I can't
The battle's not quite over
But this is our last chance.

Long Gone

2011-09-14T21:09:00.000-07:00

It took me a little more time
to know
I want you to be mine
But now it's too late
I guess that's called fate
When the boy of your dreams
is long gone.

By You

2011-08-11T00:14:00.000-07:00

Words have a different meaning
when they're said by you
They can make the difference
between yellow and blue
Words have a different meaning
when they're said by you
Your words make all the difference
You make my dreams come true

Laughter is more special
when it's laughed by you
Your laughter has the power
to make the mountains move
Laughter is more special
when it's laughed by you
Your laughter leaves me wishing
that I was there with you.

Dreams

2011-08-11T00:10:00.001-07:00

They say that if you're dreaming
your wishes will come true
So I will make a point
to always dream of you.
And then when summer's over
and we have grown apart
my dreams I can look back on
with hope for a fresh start.
