I start to miss you before you even leave
It hurts a lot less because deep down I know you'll come back eventually
And if one day you don't
Then I guess I'm leaving too
And I will never return to this place we shared together ever again....
I wish inhaling you deeply
Was enough to keep you breathing.
I wish kissing you
Was enough to make you forget. In general. About everything.
I wish touching you
Was enough to heal all your wounds and make the scars fade and disappear altogether.
I wish embracing you
Was enough to hold y...
The sound of your voice whispering the sweetest of nothings into my ear as you gently push my hair aside to kiss my neck as your protective arms wrap around me and gently rock me to sleep is the greatest lullaby....
I was informed earlier ago that there was an open mic night tonight.
So needless to say I am not prepared for this.
But I have been telling myself for weeks that I would get up here on this stage
And show you who I really am
But now I just wish that this mic stand was enough to hide behind
But ...
I have a hard time
Distinguishing
Whether you're just being really friendly
Or wicked flirtatious
I can barely tell
The difference between
When you look at me
If you badly need a hug
Or just desperately desire a kiss
I understand the mutual feeling
We wouldn't know what to d...
I'll write a love poem for you
On the graffiti-covered wall of the bathroom stall
In a rundown gas station in the middle of nowhere
And I hope that says enough for you
I hope it means enough to you
That you won't leave me here
At a rundown gas station
In the middle of nowhere....
For...
The way you used to smile at me...
The way we used to laugh together...
The way we used to cry on each others' shoulders...
The way we wrote little love notes and letters to each other...
The way we'd be on the phone for hours talking about nothing...
The way we ...
Your fingers tap my hips with the beat of the drum
And your thrusts pattern themselves rhythmically along with the music
And your tongue dances talentedly across my throat
And your chest throbs with passion that fills me with romance
And the hills of your back ripple underneath my quivering palm...
i can feel a slight pulsation of inspiration but not sure of the interpretation and i need to satisfy this sensation with any sort of manipulation that i can get my hands on....
If it's darkest before dawn then this has been one long night.
just sit tight, darling.
wait patiently.
i will find you.
and when i find you,
i will sit and wait with you.
and we'll hold hands.
and we'll talk about everything and nothing.
and we'll lie on our backs...
Every time I look at you I fall in love all over again.
Especially when you have that guitar in your hands.
I mean just look at you two together
The way you cradle that instrument
The way it fits perfectly into your arms
The way you know its every flaw and imperfection and love it all the mor...
This is the time
To be everything we want
And nothing we need
To fail all we can
And never succeed
To put pleasure first
While priority takes a back seat
To live life to the fullest
No warnings we heed
Because we're young and in love
And reckless indeed...
She walks along
She walks alone
In the cold
In the dark of the night
With her combat boots and fishnets
With her corset and cloak
It's all a choice
Everybody thinks this is a costume
Everyone believes this is all an act
But this is her
Who she was
Who she is
And who she want...
I always hate the next night
Can't fall asleep without a fight
Because we have to say goodbye
And no matter what I always cry
All I want's to have one last kiss
Because it's you I truly miss
And linger in that final embrace
And memorize the feel of your skin, taste of your lips...
People are always asking me
Why do bad things happen to good people
And I try to give them an answer
But someone has to prove me wrong
And then they lose their faith
And stop asking me anything at all
People are always begging me
To pray for them
And I cover them wholly
But they grow impa...
do a lot of thinking
Especially at night
When I walk about
Alone in the dark
One of my favorite things to ponder
The stars, the moon, the clouds
"What do you wonder?"
I wish I could ask them
I can only imagine what they'd say
Would they tell me to go home?
Where I quote,...
And I love you so much
That I will sacrifice my own happiness
And stay with you
Because even though you make me miserable
I make you happy
So I can't leave you
Because I love you too much to hurt you
And so I will sacrifice myself....
I just wish you'd understand
I don't know what
I just wish that you understood something
I simply wish you knew
I don't know what
I simply wish that you knew anything
I only wish you felt
I don't know what
I only wish that you weren't indifferent......
Darling
I am so sorry
To have ever left you
But I am on my way
I am coming home
To be with you
Once again
As it always
Should have been
The glow of
The light in your eyes
Is my guiding star
Shining brightly
Through this dark abyss
And the warmth
Of your body
And how I recall
Th...
I watch and observe you
I want you – but you need me
I smell that perfume
And grow nauseous with weakness
Because I know I could never make you that happy
I hate seeing you like this
But you won't listen to me
When I only want to help you save yourself
Because you are your only ho...
I love you
But I hate what you write
Not because it isn't good
No, no that's not it at all
You write beautifully
But you're always writing our story
And, boy, let me tell ya
I am so jealous of those characters
They seem so happy
So in love
And damnit, you know it
How badl...
