The color of your eyes

Matches the sea

Listening to your voice

Is like listening to birds calling

Holding your hand

Is like touching lightning

The way you ignite my soul

Like no other

Is the exact reason

Why I love you

+++++++++

Crying

Is just a way to say

I'm not okay

The tears are the reasons

That you feel this way

Falling from your mind

Into something else

Like your heart

Or your sheets.

++++++++

The song that can

Put you to sleep

Make you cry

Throw away your fears

Block out the world

The one song

That can express your mood

Whether angry or depressed

Happy or mellow

The one song

That you

Can rely on

And call "your song"

++++++++

It's not enough

To be skinny

Because you're not

Exactly like her

It's not enough

To be a little pretty

Because you're not gorgeous

Exactly like her

You're not like her

Beautiful

Skinny

Or desireable in his eyes

You're better.

++++++++++

The shadow of the world

Where a single soul

Lingers in hope

Of company

Of a friend

All alone

Hiding in fear

Of the monsters

Of darkness

Of death

Holding in

Every cold thought

That darkens the heart

With every waking second

The heart

Becoming cold

Slowly withers

Into evil thoughts

And taunts

The single soul

Slowly becoming one

With the shadow

Disappears into the dark

A forgotten soul

Waiting for the next.

+++++++++++

You've spent years

On this little book

Squeezing every little moment

Onto each worn page

Now unlike the numbers

This book isn't infinite

There is an end

An end that you'll have to face

And a book that you'll have to finish

Its time

To open a new book

And start another story

A clean page

Of a book you never wanted to start.xxxxxx
