These dark rolling clouds
Swirling and shifting
Caught up in a whirlwind of emotions
Inside me
Anger
Pain
Sadness
Fear
Burning like acid
Freezing like rain
Tainting what should be beautiful
Turning the sunshine dark
The flowers black
Love into hatred
Happiness into rage
All these demons are clawing me from the inside out
If I was a vase
I'd stand on a broken table
But if you had a soul
It would be as black as night
You've made your choices
And I've made mine
I would be happier going down two
Different
Roads
Because staying close
Makes it so much harder
To forget
Am I looking for your misery?
Or happiness?
Maybe I haven't decided
Whatever it is
I'm not satisfied yet
If I could live twice
I'd make better choices
But if you got a second chance
You'd break me all over again
I love the way she smiles
And the way her eyes twinkle with mischief
As her happiness turns to laughter
And spreads through the room like wildfire
Her
The very definition of stunning
A textbook example of gorgeous
The brightest point in the sunniest skies
And that look in her eyes
That shows me that everything is right with the world
Take my hand
And we'll make it
I swear
I love the way she reads
Accusing the wrong people in mysteries
Laughing out loud at the comics
Eyes skipping over the pages
Dancing through the words
And the voice of an angel
Whispering in the strings of my guitar
Truly a black beauty with a heart of go
So write me a love song
Carry me there
To the realm of your imagination
That I'll never understand
Sing me your feelings
Wrapped up in lines that rhyme
And tied up with a big bow
Of optimism
Save me a piece of your heart
Before you give yourself away
And I'll find a way to make it there
Before you fall
With this painted smile
The trademark of a broken heart
I'll laugh and dance in the sunlight
All for your runaway heart
And so it begins again
Ring around the rosy
A merry go round of pain and suffering
A pocket full of posies
She'll take me for a spin, then run away like everyone else
Ashes
Haunted by stories and past mistakes
Ashes
She questions me
We all fall
But she doesn't listen
Down
She gives up on me
Two sides
Dark and light
Rough and sweet
Not total opposites
Definitely not allies
Never be
Friends
Sweetheart smiles
Devil's desires
Evil grins
Sweetest eyes
Heart of gold
Soul of fire
Never be
Friends
Desires of death
Cries of life
Tigers
Angels
Flowers and sparkle
Chance and empty bottles
Never be
Friends
With myself
What are you?
Are you real?
You're a dream within a dream
I'm afraid touching you will make me wake up
You'll disappear
Reality is a harsh place
Too dark and dangerous for
Beauty
Like yours
Dreams
Are wishes long forgotten
Hopes the heart has
And desires too desperate to be
True
Waking up beside you
All my fears have run away
I curl my fingers in yours
And you laugh and tickle me
My soul sings for more
My heart stops
Your smile fills the room
Rainbows erupt before my eyes
As I'm filled with your beauty
I turn my eyes upward
And there you are
Filling my vision
Enveloping every sense
And I'm locked in your eyes
That could win wars
My arms wrap around your waist
My fingers electric
With the softness of your skin
And I giggle a schoolgirl's laugh
At the deep happiness I feel
My heavy lids blink once
Twice
And I fall back into the realm of sleep
My last conscious thoughts staying with
You
Catch and release
That's all you are
It's much crueler
To hunt
Wait for a bite on the line
And throw it back
You should have killed me
Not just broken me

Your Love Could Freeze Time
Can we be friends?
we're not friends. we'll never be friends
the electricity between us
the spark that ignites at a simple smile
that's what separates friends
from us
the world is dull
compared to how bright you
shine
and leaving you was like waking up from a dream
that had only just begun
your laugh is sweeter than any music I've heard
and your smile releases a thousand butterflies
inside my heart
happiness is a heartbeat away
so come on
take a chance on me
we have all day
for anything
