There's something in your smile that makes it all alright, There's a comfort in your laugh that helps me sleep at night,Something in your voice that gets me through the day. A light in your eye that keeps the darkness at bay. You are, most certainly, the sunshine in my sky,And I can't explain my love for you, so I'm not even going to try.You are simply someone that I cannot live without,You are what makes me happy; it's y...

This is a world of illusion,where truth gives way to fictionPeople say they want the real,but too much and they will bristle Where those who say they are open,lock you out when they are done,and the non-judgmental among us,will define you by your weakness They tell you to let your light shine though,but only if it stays out of their view,or that you're connected to all,while they hide behind a wall Speak your mind and the...

The things left unsaid, love that goes unshared, a soul that isn’t unbared, beautiful thoughts unspokenThe fear of being misunderstood, or the crushing pain of rejection, of causing some form of tension, or not finding the wordsThis just isn’t the time,you don’t want to be a burden, or make someone’s day darken, we fear the pain it might createYou already know how it will go, another disappointment, or being judged too ur...

Tell me you love me, that you’re somehow able, I’ll believe your fable, I’ll feast at that table I’ll give you all you need, take whatever you can, whatever fills your greed, your hunger I will feed And when I hit the wall, after I start to believe, when you’ve left me to fall, after I've given my all There’s nothing left to take, no reason for the fake, you can leave like the rest, a clean and free break I will fade away...
The night continues to falland I become one with the shadows. Struggling to stay afloat,I am stranded in this unrelenting flowwaiting for an ebb that never comes.This tide is not turning. A darkness has awakened in me. You can cut its roots at the surface,but it lives in twisted stemsand thrives in coiled tendrilsthat are anchored in inky depths.It is here that I shrivel and decay.Enshrouded by blackness - though I occasi...
