I despise the wonder, the what-if's, and the could've beens. I'd rather just say my prayers and count my sins 🌹

O Moon
O Moon, talk to me
Comfort my loneliness tonight
Make everything alright with your smile
Once again.
O Moon, I want to be with you
Way out there without a care or two
I would smile along with you
We could make everything all right.
Oh, Moon. 🌙
Comfort my loneliness tonight
Make everything alright with your smile
Once again.
O Moon, I want to be with you
Way out there without a care or two
I would smile along with you
We could make everything all right.
Oh, Moon. 🌙

Forever Missing You
I haven't wrote my thoughts down in a while.
This distasteful life of mine has left me blank.
Missing you is all that I can think.
I don't want to let go of you, I want to keep reliving your face.
It was our destiny to be together but you died by mistake.
I couldn't save you and I hate myself because I wasn't there when you took your last breath.
I'll never forget the last of our time spent.
You gave me one last kiss as if you were saying goodbye.
I'll forever hold onto that moment it always makes me cry.
This distasteful life of mine has left me blank.
Missing you is all that I can think.
I don't want to let go of you, I want to keep reliving your face.
It was our destiny to be together but you died by mistake.

I'll never forget the last of our time spent.

I'll forever hold onto that moment it always makes me cry.

Smiles
I can't help but feel the need
To smile when your around
Our conversations make me weak in the knees
But I'm still smiling on the way down
All of my walls calmly disappear
In this world of what was once fear
Never sad nor alone when I am with you
You bring me back to what is clear
Lovebound clouds roam wherever we go
Every adventure gets more intense than the one before
Now I watch from a different perspective
My heart has lost an enormous weight
As I grow older
I see that the world still smiles the same ...
To smile when your around
Our conversations make me weak in the knees
But I'm still smiling on the way down
All of my walls calmly disappear
In this world of what was once fear
Never sad nor alone when I am with you
You bring me back to what is clear
Lovebound clouds roam wherever we go
Every adventure gets more intense than the one before
Now I watch from a different perspective
My heart has lost an enormous weight
As I grow older

Opacus Clouds
That afternoon the weather
could not get much better
The sun felt like
it would last forever and
The breeze brought ease
that I could not feel before
I still had not the slightest clue
though I saw something in you
Finally something I had to look forward to
could not get much better
The sun felt like
it would last forever and
The breeze brought ease
that I could not feel before
I still had not the slightest clue
though I saw something in you
Finally something I had to look forward to

Nomad Sky
At night in the desert it gets cold
Silence is the remedy for my lost thoughts
Nothing but sand surrounding me for miles
It seemed like the end of the Earth
Or the beginning
Even fully clothed under a giant tent wrapped inside a blanket
I was shivering while everyone else lay sound asleep
Their dreams are what kept them warm
I don't dream much anymore
But when I crept outside the walls
With each night I still had the stars
Silence is the remedy for my lost thoughts
Nothing but sand surrounding me for miles
It seemed like the end of the Earth
Or the beginning
Even fully clothed under a giant tent wrapped inside a blanket
I was shivering while everyone else lay sound asleep
Their dreams are what kept them warm
I don't dream much anymore
But when I crept outside the walls
With each night I still had the stars

A Little Further Down
I'm burning up inside
As my soul travels into flames
There's nowhere to run this time
I deserve the pain
Carrying this mirror around
To remind myself of my mistakes
All the time that I let slip away
The paranoia keeps feeding off my plate
My heart palpitates for an escape
While my lungs are drowning
My mind becomes a prison
A place for sinners whose sins go unforgiven
My conscience is the reason for all my fear
Lost track of how long I've been down here
Poisonous errs have me rooted in the ground
I can't seem to cut...
As my soul travels into flames
There's nowhere to run this time
I deserve the pain
Carrying this mirror around
To remind myself of my mistakes
All the time that I let slip away
The paranoia keeps feeding off my plate
My heart palpitates for an escape
While my lungs are drowning
My mind becomes a prison
A place for sinners whose sins go unforgiven
My conscience is the reason for all my fear

Poisonous errs have me rooted in the ground

Deep Dark Place
I often wonder what will I become?
When all my time borrowed is done
Will I ever reach happiness with myself?
I sicken from the insecurities that come about
Seems that with each day births a new fear
Will I ever make it on the outside?
Out of here
The cool cats at the bars
I drown alongside them in their pains
We share the same empty glass fashion
The jukebox plays of old soirees
Broken plans of the adventures that never happened
The love found and lost along the way
This deep dark...

Cold Morning Air
I awoke to the cold morning air
Just to bury back underneath my covers
Closing my eyes in silence
I tried to remember
What it had felt like when we were together
Moments of cloud nine
If death was on my back I would of died for you
There was this rush
It came and went but when it was
For what seemed like forever
Somewhere hidden between the thoughts of lust
Maybe one could call it Love?
What ever it was I needed more
It was the cure to my lonely soul
The drug that I was craving for
A lovesick bind was then...

Dead Poet
When I die
I'll become a dead poet
They'll say that
Darkness is all she wrote of
A story of true love
A passionate voyage bound by blood
Sacrifice it all for it to not be meaningless
She would kill to keep his heart
Gaze into the mirror
I can see myself but you never see me
Slow sip on the poison
Twisting my insides out
As I start to bleed
Choke had a hold of her
She couldn't remember how to breathe
Words stayed still kept unspoken in doubt
Lips began to decay
Her...

Simple Ending
Under a blanket in the dark
Nowhere I would rather be
My fav-o-rite spot
When I'm sick of all that surrounds me
The silence keeps me in check
While my thoughts wreak havoc
Nothing comes for nothing in return
Respect can't be given it must be earned
Even true love has a limit
When you get burned
You can only care for someone so much
Until you sit back and watch
When you give up
After the water comes the rust
Only be loyal to those you trust
Truth behold
Shame your...

The Phony
Thunder arose
As the rain fell harder
A nightmare started to brew
No more remorse for it was too late
Your soul was already doomed
Growing weary from climbing up stairs
They seemed to never end
I reached double doors to a room filled with enemies
That used to be my friends
You just sat there amongst them and laughed
I was sick to my stomach for ever loving your whole
When a storm comes phonies are quick to turn their backs
Nostalgia of all the...

Calamitous Fate
Magenta moons ago
Your smile is what swayed me
Your heart was of
golden interior design
Wallowing in my sorrow
Nothing could save me
Questioning my own thoughts
So innocent and so blind
This pure desire held me hostage
An affair of fire to lust your soul
Your eyes were of alchemy
I was under your spell
Traveling in circles
There is no specific route to hell
Your smile is what swayed me
Your heart was of
golden interior design
Wallowing in my sorrow
Nothing could save me
Questioning my own thoughts
So innocent and so blind
This pure desire held me hostage
An affair of fire to lust your soul
Your eyes were of alchemy
I was under your spell
Traveling in circles
There is no specific route to hell
