Cold
Her hand burned where he last touched it,
making sure she doesn’t forget.
She presses it firmly to her cheek
to keep her tear-soaked face warm
in the whirling wind of a cold winter night.
Her legs have gone numb,
so has he heart,
because they sat out in the snow too long
without his loving touch to keep them warm.
Loneliness drowns her
in every aspects
as her head falls to the ground.
She isn’t dead,
yet,
but she soon will be.
Her heart will shatter
when she lets out that last sob
with the memory of his last kiss being the last thing she sees.

Ex Issues
I never meant to hurt you;
that wasn't my desire.
You never meant to hurt me either;
I was still tossed into the fire
I should have gave up;
or at least kept fighting.
Alas, my heart was crushed;
and it was my own fault that I was dying.
I gave you up for happiness;
but now that is gone.
Why do I still think of you;
maybe you were the one.
I let you get away;
at least that is what I feel.
Still, the drugs and drinking pushed me away;
you were in fantasy; I was with the real.
It was hard for me to say no;
when you asked for me back.
Hell if you had only asked earlier;
who knows where I could be at?
My choice wasn't simple;
like only door one or door two.
I chose her guiding light;
instead of the pain I had with you.
The pain is my own fault;
I take the blame.
Maybe I wouldn't have fought for you;
when you had him; if I was completely sane.
Love does that I guess;
turns the normal into weird.
I chose what would make me happy;
yet now, I am here.

im sorry
im sorry for the times you cried,
and the lonliness you felt inside.
im sorry for the way things were,
and the lonliness that u endured.
im sorry for the nights we lost,
and the deep pain it mustve cost.
im sorry for the loved you missed,
losing you made me realise this.
im sorry i wasnt the girl you deserved,
this has been the hardest lesson learned.
im sorry i wasnt there to show,
the deepest love you ever know.
im sorry for the empty days,
and the stresses that you still yet pay.
im sorry for the way i left,
i never felt so much regret.
im osrry for the heart i broke,
that shattered with the words i spoke.
im sorry for the empty space,
that laid beside you in my place.
im osrry for the empty arms,
you fell into when times were hard.
im sorry for the days that passed,
our love now will surely last.
im sorry it took so long to vow,
to love you forever here and now....

count 'em
I’m dyin’ see?
know it sure as anything
that I’m dyin’ see
the end of me
felt it last night in my dreams
felt it coming
felt the drummin’ of the death the end the rot of me
the end the bend the stop of me
and I got fear
of that one ride I have to take
the clock has started running down
somewhere somehow that bell-ringing day has fed itself back through time
to shake me with news
The Day
That Day
yeah I’ve seen it before
years ago
vision premonition madness of truth
whatever the name it’s the same end game
the death the darkness the nothing
then everything passed that day
every sunset every salty-hearted sailing sunrise
everything I ever built will fall in rust rot decay
I’m no man making history
not made of some godly clay
nothing I’ve ever done will matter
not afraid nor regrets for that
there is honesty in obscurity
good men live quiet and go well
I’ve done the one and now I’ll do the other
but brother
of death and all her gifts
the one I don’t want is this certainty of hoof-beats
this terrible ground this slow count-down
this knowledge of here it comes
the end the reason the calculation of sums
reduction reduced produced to mute meat
and only just only nothing
just gone
no song low enough for the knowledge I know
no woman earth enough to ease the blow
so I’m going and I’ll go
dead stop
dead end
dead. fucking. dead.

are we meant to be?
when you close your eyes do you think of me?
when you open them an I'm not there is it hard to breath?
when you think ahead and all you see is gray
do you take the chance or do you walk away
is it fair to say love is blind
or maybe you believe out of sight out of mind
distance to me is not close to content
if my heart was your money would it be spent?
do you value the moments I stared directly into your eyes?
told you I love you as I began to cry?
did you notice the tears that fell for you
knowing what we have is too good to be true
each path in my life has obstacles too overcome
my life is a story now this chapter is done

You and Me
you and me so far away
trying to make time in the day
you and me
we are us
skype dates and text messages
and sadly no touch
too far away is what we are
but soon you'll be home yet still so far
this is hard on both of us
but life's not easy neither is love
all i want is you to be safe
without care love is a waste
i am an odd one i know
only with you does my true self show
no longer hiding behind fake smiles and broken lies
my heart beats faster as i realize
your the one to stitch me up
to stop the tears and blood
the one that fixed what was torn
and that made me feel reborn
an ocean away and over two years between
even still that doesnt matter to me
in the end they may see what they want to see
but we'll prove to them thats not what love really means
