Heartbeat

Thump, thump.

My heart skips when you enter the room.

Thump, thump.

My knees weaken as you pass.

Thump, thump.

Your smile brightens my day.

Thump, thump.

My lips moisten at the sight of yours.

Thump, thump. 

Your eyes melt me like butter.

Thump, thump.

Your voice lingers in my ear like the song of an angel.

Thump, thump.

I feel your aroma caress my nostrils.

Thump, thump.

I know I love you.

Thump, thump.

My heart falls.

Thump, thump. 

Because I know better.

Whispers in the Dark

As the hours fade,

As the moonlight wanes,

As others drift in dreams,

As creatures stalk,

As the breeze blows,

As I wander where I will,

As I listen to the night,

Deep in the dark,

Your ghost whispers.

You speak of the things that were,

You speak of who I was,

You speak of how I fell,

You speak of love long gone,

You speak of us,

Deep in the dark,

Your ghost whispers.

When all is quite,

When the moon is all but gone,

When the night is spent,

When I drift toward sleep,

When the creatures bed down,

When all is calm,

Deep in the dark,

Your ghost whispers.

Losing You

You say you’ll never leave

You promise to always be here

You swear we’ll be friends

You break down my walls

You push your way in

You say it’s ok

You promise not to hurt me

You swear your true

You make it so damn hard to refuse

You know me like no one else

You are there when I need

You tell me your not going anyway

You make me believe 

You say I’m like family

You swear your for real

You promise to listen

You make me feel safe

You see through my lies

You know when I’m upset

You have seen me broken

You know me better than I do

For all this

I’m scared to death 

Of losing you. 

Lost

I can hear them falling,

Feel them calling.

Each drop a cry,

For once they tried.

Mother Nature weeps,

Her tears so sweet.

Her pain,

So vast and deep,

One only hears in the rain.

Rain

I can hear them falling,

Feel them calling.

Each drop a cry,

For once they tried.

Mother Nature weeps,

Her tears so sweet.

Her pain,

So vast and deep,

One only hears in the rain.

Running

The past returns,

Whenever I look back.

It swells up,

‘Till it’s just too much.

I try to lock it out,

To move away.

Yet still it balloons,

Getting ever stronger.

So I duck my head,

I turn my face,

I will my muscles to move,

‘Till all there is is running.

Regret

It stalks you in the night,

Takes hold of you tight.

You try to fight,

Use up all of your might.

You try to run.

But run you can’t.

It finds you where ever you go.

It is always waiting,

Just around the corner.

Try as you might,

You can’t escape it.

So you give up,

And give in.
