“Ambition.”

There’s… something I need to do.
I don’t know if I’ll ever be back.
But I have something I need to chase.
Something very precio-

It’s alright.
We’ll be miles away, and still I’ll think of you.
Promise me, that next time I hear of you
It’ll be of what you’ve become.
And not what you were.

I’ve been laying here a little too long.
Watch the clouds pass me by.
Enjoying nature’s song.
The dirt pushes me forward
As the grass moves me along.
The breeze brings me toward
A place where I belong.
A dream I kept, inside a vessel now scorned.
With hands that knew only paper and pen
And could only speak with words.
And still, they speak my name
With whispers, it travels around
Gaining untold fame.
A thousand hands that pushed me along.
A single push, enchanted by a siren’s song.
A dream I shared, within the dawn.
In a place, where only I belong.

“You Look Lovely.”

Love the way your hair blows
Love the way your face glows
Got a lot of love, and it shows.

Roses are red, and violets are blue.
I wrote this at 4 A.M., thinking of you.
Flowers mean love, and sweets just the same.
But all I need, is you calling my name.
Dinner at night, wake up and smile.
Stay for a bit, stay for a while.
Starry night skies, and late night drives
Wishing it was you in my crowded mind tonight.
Kisses for two, remnants of you
Walked out the door, that’s it, we’re through.

“Just Write.”

I can’t speak.
I can’t yell.
I can’t even say what I want.
All I can do is write this stupid shit.

Deep thoughts, dark thoughts
One and the same.
Open up my mind, come take a peek
Call me insane.
Just talk, just speak, please voice your mind.
How am I supposed to?
Do you know where demons like to hide?
Down another, smoke another, till I’m feeling numb.
Skin to skin, and velvet lips
A devil’s kiss, now I’ll succumb.
But when the sun comes out, another day, another test.
Given to a special someone
Who never knows what’s best.

“Jade Eyes.”

We’re both broken, but she doesn’t seem to mind.
A queen of fragile love, heart to heart, we share alike.
A gentle kiss, a touch so kind.
And yet, I hesitate to call her mine.

Hearts and souls alike
Felt our bodies intertwine.
Pearl white skin, and angel’s eyes.
It’s just you and I tonight.
Forget the world, there’s only us.
Indulge myself within your trust.
Your words, your comfort, the spell you weave
Softly lull my weary soul to sleep.
When she laughs, the sky turns blue
What am I supposed to do, with all these thoughts of you?
Kiss my lips, just tell me lies.
Swear you’re only mine tonight.
Skin to skin, hand in hand, let’s share our souls.
Chest to chest, heart to heart, don’t let me go.

“Puzzle Pieces.”

She stares in the sky at night.
Wondering if she’ll ever know life
If she’ll ever know what it’s like to be free.
Run from it all, and never come back.

Hey, are you awake?
Can you keep me company?
Just to keep me sane?
Please don’t go.
This life is all I know.
I don’t think I’ll make it on my own.
You say you’re broken?
Well, so am I.
But, here, take what I’ve got left.
Let’s see if your piece fits mine.

“Immortal.”

Remember me.

Within the blades of grass, and trees that grow.
Along the banks where rivers flow.
Remember us for years to come.
They’ll know our names, etched beneath the sun.
Yes they’ll run, for days and days.
But never will they escape
This legacy that we’ve made.
We’ll stand atop a throne
Watching over lands of ashy haze
As they beg for better days.

“Rain.”

I’m going crazy.
Water hurts my throat.
This pain makes me drowsy
And still keeps me afloat.

Drunk in love and blind with infatuation.
Drown me in your constant intoxication.
Feel your hands along my skin.
Fill my head with lies so paper thin.
Kiss my lips with hopes and dreams.
Keep me occupied, my devil queen.
Drain me all, in mind, body, and in soul.
Leave my lifeless body in the cold.
Lick your lips, you promise me another day.
When all I want, is for you to stay.

“Help.”

Well, how do you feel?
That’s the thing.
I don’t.

Pin me up along your wall.
Drop me down and let me fall.
Cut me up and break me down.
Tie my hands and let me drown.
Kiss my lips and say goodbye.
Take my eyes, don’t let me cry.
Skin the flesh and free the soul.
Life has never felt so cold.
So pin me down with devil’s chains.
Kiss my lips and keep me sane.
Let me go and bring me rest.
Beside the one who knew me best.

“A Thousand Words.”

I can sit here all day and tell you what’s on my mind.
I could sit here and go for hours about the demons that plague me
Day after day, they fly around inside my head.
Is that what you want?

Left their tracks within the snow.
No one knows where they’ll both go.
She laughs and sings, with dreams of him.
While he’s awake at night with passing whims.
Thoughts of her and him begin to fade.
As she and he drift further away.
His thoughts escape her mind.
As she dances in the night.
He drinks to numb it all.
Open phone, hoping that she’d call.
But she’s got a ring, a life, a love made for two.
A thousand words I wrote, and sent to you.
But I guess this will do.
