She'll keep waiting

I painted a picture once, but I can't seem to remember what it looks like. I used to love to paint; I used to love you too. The colors have been replaced with words, and your sweet ways override everything I thought I was. I have buried myself. They've tried to dig me out, but your the only one I trust to do so.

no matter where you are

It's not easy saying this to you
It's the hardest thing I've ever had to do
But before you go
I want you to know
I wish you strength, when times are hard
I wish with all my heart you find just what you're looking for
I wish you joy
I wish you peace
I wish that every star you sees within your reach

love will tear us apart

I've never seen anything so sad. I run down our narrow hallway, quickly, anxious to get to my room. I shut the door swiftly behind me, I can't let them see me cry, not over something like this. The tears were trickling down my cheeks, slowly, one by one and I was hoping they couldn't see me through the darkness of the room. But now, now the tears pour out, and I don't hold them back like I previously did. It amazes me that something so simple, something I love so much can fill me this much, can give me this much feeling. It reminds me of you, and how I was never afraid of my emotions. I am now though.

please remember

the time was yours and mine
and we were wild and free
not a dream was out of reach
under a lover's sky
I'm gonna be with you
nothing short of God above
could turn me away from your love
let the stars stand
and witness it all
