Haunting Memories

A couple days now I've been thinking about you ... I continue to write in that black book we talked about before we broke up. I write in there from time to time but seeing that we're not meeting anymore, I'll toss it out after the year, I'm sure you don't want to hear my sad stories. It's been rough 'cause I see pictures of you and I can't help but think of what we had. I drift into the past and the times we shared together, holding you at night and waking up every morning next to you, I still remember it as clear as yesterday. I wonder at times if you had the best of me .... 'Cause I still can't seem to get out of this dark depressed feelin' ....

When you left I was sad but I knew we had something special. Then you turned the tables and you were gone, as though I wasn't really that important after all. We were great, you and I, we spent those months together and it felt like life was made for us. We had each other and nothing else mattered. I honestly thought you wanted the same ...

As stupid as it may sound I missed you for months and couldn't even contain myself. My friends were worried about me, my parents knew nothing of it and just like that you were gone. I think about you every night before I close my eyes cause it's still the closest to home I've been 'from' home ...

*sigh* It wasn't supposed to end like that ... it wasn't supposed to end at all *sigh* ....

Forgotten But Not Gone...

Sacred memories and forgotten dreams, Vivid settings and sunlit scenes, Glistening radiant light on the ocean’s head, Silent thoughts and words never said; Bleeding beneath the surface of still waters, Trying to cope with the anger within, Fallen hearts and lost emotions, Secular thoughts and parallel sins; Leave me be and let me die, See you in hell and don’t forget your lie, Take it with you and hold it tight, Grab it onto with all your might, For when the demons see your face, You WILL be asking for God’s gentle grace…

Crush...

Give me a reason not to jump up and down, When you enter the door wearing a crown, My hearts in the right place, My mind is there too, But I’m not sure you have a crush on me, Hence I don’t know what to do; Please make my life a little easier, And send me a sign, It could be what ever you like, As long as it’s somewhat kind; So I ask one more time to tell me the truth, I’m a guy, who’s looking for a girl, Not some broken heart youth, I’m sure you’re looking for the same, A cool dude or friend of another, A skater chick perhaps, "O wait, don't bother!"

Impede...

We fumbled about and fashioned a smile, But yet we hated each other all the while, We strut nothing and played this game, And here we are just the same; It is fair that we lie to each other? Deny out hearts' the purest of pleasure? I'm giving up as long as you are, ‘Cause we've taken this a tad bit too far; So end this hatred and let’s make peace, The heavens are waiting for this rivalry to cease, Kiss me good night and I'll be on my way, Just the same like for any other day; Let’s hold hands and walk the streets, Not lies in bed with cold bitter sheets, Lie next to me and make the day night, For you are the purest of this world's light…
