You were a silent storm. Looming until finally you broke and I was washed out by downpours and blinded by lightning. Although it wasn't the thunder that rocked my world, only when I reached the eye of the storm did I see the peace and stillness of your true self- the one that I fell in love with. That was the part that shook my world, creating a new storm inside myself
I wanted you before I knew what love was, but then I understood that it is a constant battle. I push away when you pull me in, I say I love you when you can't stand to look at me. Love is a war- a brutal fight. Because love isn't easy. We work, we fight, but when it comes down to it we both would take a bullet for the other. Even if we pulled the trigger.
If it takes me falling
For you to fly
Then I would plummet
A thousand miles
For you to soar
Again
I find that i am tired
Of being tired
And that i am wishing
My wishes would come true
I am constantly praying
That my prayers will be heard
And that i am always writing
About the pain of words
When is the last time
That i thought
For myself?
My mechanical brain
Made of gears and gold
Robotic and cold
I do what im told
And nothing exceeding
What was programed
In my bones
Being with you
I felt human agin
But in that moment
There was foreign blood
Pumping in my veins
So I scream out
Feeling raw inside
“I deserve to be loved!”
And listen for the echo
To return from the empty
So it can remind me
That I am
Alone
When did every love song
Become about us?
Each smile
Each tear
Each softspoken word
Drives me mad
You are the melody
And the harmony
You are the song in my head
I just have to wonder
Am i your everything
Too?
Freedom.
I have dreamed of the word
But have always been uncertain
Of its meaning
Is it choice,
Or ability?
Or is it something in between?
I ask for freedom
But wonder
Which side of the bars
I see
I reached into the empty space
Beside me
And felt nothing but the cold
Pale sheets
Which once brought us together
But now
Only find pleasure in tearing us
Apart
You defy all meaning
All logic
All truth
You are like a blizzard
In the desert
Or an earthquake
In the sky
Impossible,
Yet happening
Right before my eyes
