forever in love with you.

if this is how it feels,
the world spinning
my eyes closed
arms outstretched

if this is how it feels,
your soft touch
warm lips
quiet whisper

if this is how it feels
my heart racing
temperature rising
leaning into you

if this is how it feels
to fall in love
i want to fall forever
forever in love with you.

it isn't only clouds that cry

Sat by the pier and I waited
Waited for what I'm still unsure
For you to come?
I don't know why I would
Wait for you, I mean.
Why wait for someone,
when you know they'll let you down?
Because you do, you know.
You let me down often.

& by the time we said goodbye, my heart was already broken

from the time i wake
until the time i sleep
you're on my mind
you're pushing me.
to do what you want
to be who you are
without a care
without a thought
of the girl i am
or i'm trying to be

remember me?

i must say, i'm feeling bitter.
it's been so long,
and you still don't know me?
would you look at me for once?
i'm right here.
i made your coffee this morning,
i'm sure i'll make your dinner tonight.
i've been here all day, waiting for you.
i've been here all week.
all month.
all year.

just one look is all i ask
maybe then you might remember
who i am, and how to spell my name.

the cold of your heart burns my skin

another day passes that i don't hear from you
i'm beginning to wonder if you weren't just a dream
and if you were just a dream,
why did i have to wake up?
i want to sleep longer, i need to feel you again

you're everything i once was

i crawled into bed tonight
still wearing your shirt
i pulled it close to myself
hoping to catch your scent

you've been gone for too long
i'm starting to forget
the way your mouth looked
with each simple smile.

your voice no longer fills
the quiet in my mind
i can't feel your hand
any longer on mine

i guess it's safe to say
i miss everything about you
and i'm starting to forget
everything i miss.

the simple tastes of love

i once believed love could be unconditional
that once it happened, it couldn't go away.
unfortunately, i think it has.
and i think both of our hearts are shattered.
how did we let it get to this point?
why didn't we draw the line?
i wish you could have accepted
the little things in me.
you know, the way i bite my lip
whenever i became nervous
or how i'd always argue the little things
like what show we watched on tv
just because i liked to hear you talk
if i could, i'd go back to that place
that day that we met.
i'd tell you the truth,
that you can't force me to be
someone i'm not.
that despite how hard we would try
this romance could never work.
because you're too damn stubborn
to be content with someone
who loves you in the most simple of ways.
