Tomorrow

My blanket of bricks weighs heavy
I'm waiting patiently
The mask of smiles is wearing thin
I'm starting to show through

Washing the blue from my eyes
and the blood from my hands
I see through the ripples to the sand
Reaching deeply, going head first
I've lost my grip.

Letting go of reality
Making peace with inner chaos
It has become my normality
Please leave me my sanity

My spine, it's numb
Bending over backwards is more painful than ever
I expect nothing
I'm never hurt

My love for you it's unwavering
Do you see me here?
I'm standing, shaking, crying
You'll love me, I know it
I feel you, I see you
You're walking away
You passed me by
Again, you look through me
I'm amazing, didn't you know?
I thought someone told you...

evening

the cool evening breeze presses my hair to my face

our fingers intertwined and hands warm

looking at me, you smile

my eyes smile back

steps, one in front of the other

quietly we know.

laying on the grass

i feel it gently tickling my neck

bare feet and soft kisses

my heart smiles

sun setting, moon rising

silently enjoying the dusk

quietly we know.

deep river, warm water

mud between our toes

illuminating our bodies, the moon bathes in his reflection

wrapped up in your arms

skin to skin

face to face

slow breathing, hearts beating

quietly we know.

Buried

an equal and opposite reaction, i beg to differ

the ceiling is coming down on top of me

im not sure im going to react

out and breathing

in and buried

i cant decide

my eyes, the sun

are those real tears?

where am i

who am i

what am i doing here

who are you

do i know you

maybe you wont hurt me

should i chance it

i have to stop talking to myself

im in the dark

whos hand is that

where are you taking me

i'll go with you

it doesnt matter where

its just out of reach

climbing, bleeding, shaking

its too high

fallen into this heap

shallow, raspy breathing

im buried
