I See Your Face

Remember to treat everyone as a human being. It’s easy to forget that most people can understand you, they just have a difficult time communicating their own thoughts.

my mind is too fast

i can’t keep up

a little green bug landed on my arm, out of instinct i swiped at it. oh what a shame something so small and so unaware had to meet its end, on my skin.

i swear my pupils were made,

just to see you in this light,

and i’ve always wanted to leave this place,,

but i turn around every night

because you’re like nothing else.

i’m just used to everyone leaving,

i had so much love,

and now i don’t even have feelings,

but i just can’t ever give up,

because of you,

it’s always been you.

And after everything, I still have nobody. Why do I give so much of myself to other people?

had a conversation with myself,

we didn’t really agree

a beautiful possibility,

an extraordinary maybe,

“the great perhaps”,

a hopeful tomorrow.

anything may happen,

so let it happen,

and to experience it,

how rare it must be.

one more time

touch my skin

hold me tight

i don’t want it to end

the look in ur eyes

tells me everything

all your lies

disguised as loveliness

all those things you said

all those things you said

i don’t want to die

but don’t want to exist

don’t know how to cry

i’m no good at this

it’s all in my head

it’s all in my head

Her hair was on fire

A peppermint martini

Right beside her

Oh..

She was so close

Stepping on my toes

Her freckles and her nose

Her lip gloss stained my daydream

Her presence warmed my soul

Our eyes are always dancing

Without you is vertigo.

I am the dust on your shelf.

I am the passing wind.

I am the raindrops on your window.

Waiting for you to let me in.

I am the eyes of longing.

I am a quiet protector.

I am the memory of forgotten.

A lost time collector.
