Keep Moving

Keep moving

Even when the ground

feels stale

Move against the wind

Never keep yourself

against the rail

Keep moving

Keep moving past

your fears

Let go of what's done

You can't undo

all those years

And whenever you feel lost

inside of your own space

Close your eyes and breathe

Remember, that you'll eventually

find your place

As long as you keep moving

Sweet Singer

Your heart sings to me

and mine echoes your song

All those years without you

could've been spent

hearing this all along

But I didn't know

we could sing so sweet

And now I'm reminded

every time I feel your heat

You spread right through

my veins

I can get lost in your voice

every time you call my name

So I'm gonna hold on to you

for the rest of my days

And I'll show you, show you

how I love you

in a hundred different ways

So let's keep making

this sweet music together

And let's stay lost inside

each other forever

Dancing In The Rain

I'll carry you

in my heart

It will keep you

safe and warm

I'll wrap you up 

in dandelions

to cushion you

from the storm

I'll keep you

as my pet

and whenever 

the world is wet

we'll go out dancing

Oh, how I love dancing

in the rain with you

When You First Kissed Me

Blissful tides

and the changing sea

I wish you could've felt

what I felt

when you first kissed me

I wanted to swallow 

you whole

and I never wanted you

to let go

As the dawn crept in

and the sunlight

touched your skin

Oh, I knew right then

that I had to let

you in

Oh, the beat 

of my heart

came pounding 

so hard

I got lost in your eyes

because feeling you that way

was a calming surprise

So I kissed you again

and again 

and again

And ever since then

you've changed my bones

And wherever you are

will always be

my home

-March 2014

Good-Bye To You

I'm glad that I 

don't have you anymore

I used to wish you never came

to knock at my door

But I see now

that I had lessons to learn

Now if I ever need a fire

I have your letters I can burn

Oh, I guess one thing you taught me

was this

Is that there should be passion

behind every kiss

And if I wake up

in the middle of the night

I need someone there

to hold me tight

Oh, I need someone who cares

what I say

Not someone who shuts me out

just to get their own way

As for lessons

I'm up to three

I guess I'll never understand

why you never really saw me

The truth is

you never took the time to look

Because if you did you would've seen

that my heart is an open book

Now that I've said

my good-bye to you

It feels good that I've moved on

and I hope that you have, too

Paper

It doesn't matter

what I do

As long as I 

have you

You comfort me

in almost every way

You allow me 

to express myself

Here I can say

whatever I want to say

Everything just flows

through me

And it lands here

in the most appropriate manner

I love to see you

and love the way you feel

under my hand

I love that you are

my blank slate

my fresh start

my release

-May 2014

New Look

My blog has a new look! YAY!! I've been playing around with different backgrounds and color schemes to get a feel for what I think best suits me and my style. I think I have found it. I hope you enjoy the new look!

Drained

Do you remember

when I touched you

and you saw gold

Now it must be

a dusty yellow

I turn to find

my unclean palms

I fear I've drained you

Of all your purity

All your devotion

All your sanity

I find mine is waning

I don't see yellow

I don't see gold

I see nothing

through this thick haze
