Amidst the ruins
Underneath the debris
He found a letter
In a pink case
It was about all their joy
Happiness and smiles
Their heart and mind
And the other things
That were lost in time
Tears streamed down his face as he read it
It seems so unnecessary, the letter said
To try to be high all the time
When everytime
It comes crashing down
And you don’t know why
How easily we forget to forgive
And how delightfully we love to deceive
What brilliant liars we all turn out to be
Is there no way out?
The letter went on,
Why can’t we live without
The constant fight within
They found a way out, he thought
Burned it all down
Amidst the ruins
Underneath the debris
He found their dreams
Realizing
Nothing is what it always seems.

You

With me you stand
On the shore
Waiting for the wave
To wash us over
Hold on tight
You tell me
I look into your deep blue eyes
Wondering
What would it be like?

Walking through the crowd
Trying to reach the other side
You take my arm
And pull me out
I stare at your face
Wondering
If I have you for real

I’m not afraid to let you go
Im just scared
That I won’t know where you’ll go

You are here with me
Right now
Looking into my brown eyes
With that thoughtful smile
And Im wondering
About what you’re thinking
You’re smile widens
And you take me in your arms
And snug in that warmth

I wonder no more.

Wishlist

If i stay
Would you go away
Behind the wall
Out of my world
If i stay
Would you pull away
Disappear in to the dark
If i stay
Would you detach yourself
From me, from you
Go to a place where i can't find you
If i stay
With you gone and me on my own
And it's so much better this way
If i stay
Loosen your grip
As time slips
And promise me this
You won't ever look my way
