I'm Not Guilty

There have been times...
I've killed myself over my smile.
Let you slip off my mind for just a second,
and then returned to you, terrified...
I've hurt enough and so much
I've cut myself, to keep my wounds bleeding...
I'm alive and I've felt it. And for this I'm forever grateful.
But I need you to know this...
I'll save you your place, always.
You can come and go, as you please.
But should I choose to live now, I'm not guilty.

As We Danced Into The Night

The colors bounced off your skin, as I looked at you in awe.
Soft music played into our ears, and time promised to stay a while...
As we danced into the night.

An Afternoon Of Simpler Things

Lets lay on our backs, on the floor. And do nothing, once more.
Don't talk of life or love, or of the world. We don't have to.
Talk about the weather, your tan, the weekend groceries.
Lets glide into the evening and stick to simpler things.

The Anti-Climax

Oh! You'll get there eventually. But when you do, you'll know less than you did before and wish you'd gone a little slow. And when you do, you won't know where to go anymore.

Truth Be Told

No, I've never wanted you to love me. I love you too much.
I could never wish you pain, even if I were to stay.
I could never risk your heart, what if I could break it apart?
And believe it or not, but it's true, I love my freedom more than you.

The Child From Everywhere

"Home is where the heart is" or at least so he was told.
So he broke his into pieces. And then powdered it to dust.
Then sprinkled it across the world, till it was everywhere.
