Around the corner

It echoes loud when you call my name 
Hear it ring out from the inside 
Going back to that different place 
And I‘ll make it out this time 

Running fast to come back to you 
When you left me last summer
Waiting on finding the truths 
That bring me along 
Every place you went wrong 
 

Chorus:
You ran away and left me behind 
I’m around the corner 
Keeping the times close 
Wishing there was more 
Wondering where it all went

Star struck in my eyes 
Dreaming about the times 
Where I once came from 
Wishing I could’ve survived 

Chorus:
You ran away and left me behind 
I’m around the corner 
Keeping the times close 
Wishing there was more 
Wondering where it all went

Bridge:
Picking myself up off the ground 
Running around town to find
Where you left me long ago 
Wishing on the old times 

Chorus:
You ran away and left me behind 
I’m around the corner 
Keeping the times close 
Wishing there was more 
Wondering where it all went

Outro:
I won’t go

  • What is left

    [This is a reposted edited version of a previous poem of mine.]

     

    when all we have is spent–

    what will we have left?



    people once before us–

  • down the street

    i walked down the street
    the streets i once used to know 
    filled with regrets and heavy with burdens 
    of what once happened here

    i walked down the street 
    a block or so down 

  • Dear god, am I real?

    I believe in god even though I may know he doesn’t exist

    I know the mountains were not formed by him

    Instead it is the science in the world

    The reason we are here in this moment
