Timeless

I wanted to stay there forever

Under that tree with you.

I wanted to lie there

Live beneath the sky's blue.

I wanted to look at the constellations at night

And name the clouds' shapes in the daytime.

I wanted to stay there

Timeless and free

I wanted time to stop

Static

Freeze you and me.

I wanted to talk to you

I wanted you to open up

I wanted to reach you

Love you

And stuff.

I wanted to stay there

Together as we grew old;

Timeless

And painless

Where nothing went untold.

I wanted time to stop

When you met my eyes.

I wanted you to come back

To see the sun rise

With me at your side

Like it was supposed to be

But this reality's not timeless

Not happy for me.

I wanted to stay there

In that desperate golden moment

Young and in love

But I'll never show it.

  • Choices

    It's a choice, every day.

    It's a choice to love someone

    To reach out your hand

    To open your heart

    And it's a choice to keep loving them

    Through thick and thin.

    It's a choice to stop.

    I feel completely

    Lost

    Alone

    By

    Myself here.

    No company

    Could fix this.

    Drowning in my own emotion,

    Melting in the not-yet-summer heat.

    I can't think straight,

    Can't be

  • Bittersweet goodbye

    Bittersweet goodbye -

    Half the grade is happy.

    Half the grade is crying inconsolably.

    There are tears and smiles

    And hugs and laughs

    And tissues and noses being blown

    While the flowers bloom in the field
