Last Lines

When I close my eyes and dream of you
I cherish the moments, no matter how few
In your smile I feel like I last forever
Although your touch I can barely remember
Right now I'd give anything for a chance
To hold your hand and finally dance
Even if I have nothing to really say
More than anything I just want to talk to you always

Recharged

I'm not at all sure what's going on
It came to me like the beginning of a song
A comfortable feeling with an old friend
Let me finally empty my clouded head

Though now there's a new cloud
One soft and fuzzy, not quite as loud
It's warm, sweet and wholly new to me
But it's putting a smile on my face for all to see

To think just yesterday I couldn't let go
And now, when I'm silently thankful it's so
I've cried my tears and dried my eyes
And now cherish the times between hellos and good-byes

Empty Battery

For now, let me sit here in my misery
Let me take the time to force myself to see
All the good to come of this
Gaining back the energy that I've missed
I had to say it, I had to know
(Though there are parts of me I'd rather not show)
I'm empty - I'll be empty for a while
For some time, I'll be faking a smile
I'll miss the dreams that made me happy
Even if they were gross and sappy
My pillow case, for now, will keep getting wetter
But eventually, I swear, I'll get better

One up

I want someone I can steal the moon for
But would give me the sun
My greatest gestures matched and defeated
By his need to make me smile, prove me wrong
And hold me through the thunderstorms
He'll call me stupid and beautiful
Roll his eyes and kiss my hand
Our friends won't quite understand
Exactly why are we together?
Mostly for the smiles
Sometimes for the tears
Though always for the love

Sweet Dreams

Lonely late at night
When the moon is gone
And the only light
Appears from my phone

A text from a friend
Far away from me
Is what I hope for
No, dead battery

To stop this feeling
Quiet loneliness
I close tired eyes
And conjure up you

It Will Be

It will be the simple things that make me smile,
The weird things that make me laugh,
And the silly things that make me cry.

It will be the smiles I give that brighten my day,
The laughs I cause that better my week,
And the cries I stop that improve my year.

It will be the day when life is finally simple,
The week when people accept weird,
And year I will look back on and find silly.

Calm

It's dark
The single light
Shines from a glowing laptop.

It's cool
The slight breeze
Smells of wet concrete.

It's quiet
The soft noise
Sings of flame and birth.

It's peaceful
The singular feeling
Settles throughout the room.
