My destiny lies
Just out of my reach
My future lies
Just before me
But as I chase it down
It slips
Out of my reach
Again
It makes me lust
For its glitter and shine
While going home,
Discontent and dry
Destiny, if you’re out there-
Revive me,
Place me in your arms
Where I’m suppose to be
Bring me to your scenes of comfort
Fantastic and inviting
Show me what I’m suppose to see
Let me be the person
I was born to be
Leaving fingerprints on my heart
These cranial creations
Pass through my mind
As dreams on wings
He, in his many forms
Is love in its perfection
He holds me,
Takes my hand,
And leads me on adventures
Through a dreamscape untouched
By reality’s hardened grip
And now when I awake
I ask myself who he is
Does he even exist?
Some say that bliss
Is overrated and unattainable
Some say it is fleeting
And truly unstable
They that say this
Must be down on their luck
For when I met you
Things started to look up
For like a beautiful dream
You were a sight for sore eyes
You came to me as an angel
A pleasant surprise
Like a genie you opened my world
Into new and wondrous things
Always thinking that it can’t be real
But in my heart I can actually feel
I never thought I’d get here
To a place without fear
To a place where happiness is
An existing plane here
Finally I see
At last I believe
That happiness
Can belong to me
Imagine a girl. This girl stands in a crowd of hundreds, and she feels all alone. She has a family. She has friends. She believes in a god above. But she feels disconnected somehow…not like she’s lost touch with things, but like she’s never actually been in touch with them in the first place. She…
The days grew hot
With a new summer sun
As we swung in a hammock
The time was playful and fun
He kissed my lips,
A sweet sultry risk
Of turning my world upside down
But I never frowned
Until the day
That winter came
He said that things
Just haven’t felt the same
He said with a shrug,
“Let’s see what happens.”
He looked away to the horizon
As my sad eyes followed him
In my heart I knew
Just what he was thinking
“What’s between us is just
A toss-up between fools.”
But I stubbornly hoped
And maybe childishly imagined
That we would work out
That maybe our weak hearts
Could cope up,
But now,
Only sorrow follows
When two hearts are beyond
Saving a relatioship
That slipped into the gallows.
Brevity never found its place
Between my heart and yours
In a line so stretched out
Never were spaces so close
Try and try again
They want to cut time short
But we stay the same
In love
Even in the rain
Even if the clock is broken again
