girl with the hazel eyes

lyrics of devotion
spilling from these lips of blue
like tides drifting in and out
your non interest strangling me
oh what a thought
an ocean of words to describe you 
and me just floating on the surface
pen in hand
listening to the sounds 
and mellodies
that makes your name ring in my ears
lonely i wait here
in the dark 
until my courage shows it's face
and i can tell you how i feel 
for friend simply isn't enough 
my affections run deeper than that
they wish to hold you 
and keep you safe from whatever may try to harm you
to wrap you up in a blanket of perfect warmth and love
layered farther reaching out
hold on please
i just want 
to see you 
and tell you three simple words
i just want to pour all that love into a simple sentence 
and change the way you see me
because 
you 
are the only person 
who has ever looked at me like that
who didn't judge upon seeing me
who never faltered in supporting me
and smiled when i did
you 
the girl with the hazel eyes. 
i love you.

  • The Boxes In The Corner

    Looming over your shoulders

    Each stack higher than its former

    Every thought and every scrap

    Of an idea too scared to ponder

     

    Every moment that hurt

    Each minute that lingered longer

  • Inadequacy


    How do I push the words out
    From behind my taffy tongue 
    Thick with salty tears 
    And full of grubby thumb 


    I’m a child 
    Pretending that I’m numb 
    To escape the overwhelming feelings 

  • Paper Frogs

    Why

    When feet fall soft but quick 

    Does the hallway extend

    And the hot breath of whoever’s behind me feel hotter 

    Why do I stay pressed to the wall 

    Like a stubborn gruby sticker
