Sound Advice.

There's a poet, yet alive inside you, my friend.
Let him out.

Be not afraid of what the world will say, my friend.
Scream your dreams,
Write out loud.

You've doubted your worlds too long, my friend.
Don't hold back.

Beauty flows from your fingers, my friend.
She screams a dream,
Write out loud.

Pointless Rambles.

Please don't stop me from saying this,
I need you now than I ever did.
The words keep flowing and you're need,
In my life for this poetry.

I can't hear what you say to me,
I wish to live a little comfortably.
Don't be sad for this day,
Some day tomorrow will be eternity.

My prose keeps falling and breaking down,
The smile has turned to a twisted frown.
Toil in this world for a shaded pride,
Laughing and flying through a sordid ride.
Just sleep,
It's all that's needed.
Just live,
It's all about loving.

The silence breaks we're moving on,
The wound it heals like the crack of dawn.
A brighter light shines again,
What we were has faded to memory.

So think of us when you sleep tonight,
Love that stood through every fight.
A fork in the road and a choice to make,
A harder way for the journey's sake.
Just sleep,
It's all that's needed.
Just live,
It's all about loving.

Night by day.

I watch the moon,
Light up your face,
So sweet.

Hating sunrise,
And what he'll bring.

Hating tomorrow,
When you'll be gone.

Remembering that sleep,
Escaped us that night.
Yet not tired for a drop I feel.

And now the dreams fill your eyes.
The cold touches your skin.
As our feet wake up entwined,
And we speak for the very first time.

Stronger than steel,
I am.
Or so I'd like to believe.

That hated sunrise,
Showed me what I'd lost.

He showed me,
When you had gone.

Our hearts,
Are never our own.
A love that has come and gone.

In a time,
When we should have known.
The dreaded sun,
Is never wrong.

But I still remember,
When the dreams filled your eyes.
The cold touched your skin.
As our feet woke up entwined,
And we spoke for the very first time.

I still remember.

Unknown Inspiration.

Brown eyed beauty,
For all the comfort you give.

We will fade into the rising sun,
Before we have a chance to forgive.

Brown eyed beauty,
For all your sympathy.

And the silent observer,
That you played with me

I will thank you till forever's day,
And think of what you said.

With another night spent,
Intwined on the bed.

But when the sun comes up,
You will have gone away.
And when the sun comes up,
We will meet the end of the day.
When the sun comes up,
We can't have a regret,
But when the sun comes up,
I know we won't forget.

Brown eyed beauty,
For all that strength.

That I see in your eyes,
And when you catch your breath.

I'd help you to fight,
Fight the war,
With your demons that have bled.
For the truth,
And the lies left unsaid.

But when the sun comes up,
You will have gone away.
And when the sun comes up,
We will meet the end of the day.
When the sun comes up,
We can't have a regret,
But when the sun comes up,
I know we won't forget.

Another morning,
Brings warmth to my bones.
Another breeze,
Leaves a chill in my knees.
Another day,
Takes her memory further on.
Another night,
I will wish that you'd stayed on.

But when the sun comes up,
You will have gone away.
And when the sun comes up,
You will have forgotten what I say.

Outdated Apologies.

I think I might,
Lose my mind,
If I hear your voice again.

The way you sound,
Teary eyed,
When I'm faking confidence.

You made your choice,
To leave me when,
The anger filled your voice that day.

You know I meant,
I love you still,
I lied and said, just go away.

And now I'm empty.

Your lipstick smeared,
From tears I fed,
Your make up was all washed away.

In my sadness still,
I remembered the smile,
Of you and me in a better day.

In the night I held you,
Close in hope,
That you would never run away.

I shoulda stayed back,
And heard you out,
Instead I kept my stupid ways.

And now I'm empty.
Now I'm empty.

I think I might,
Lose my mind,
If I hear your voice today.

Just to hear,
You break in tears,
Knowing I made you this way.

But I'm empty.
I'm empty.

The desperate attempt.

Your smile is in my head,
Picture it, on my eyes again.
You face will never leave me,
And now there's no hope,
To be free.

But I tried.
To give you what you wanted.
I tried,
Till I fell.
You know I tried,
To work with what was handed.
I tried,
Can't you tell?

Your memories they hold me,
Sighing breaths and smiling days.
Broken dreams of what could be,
And the stolen chance, taken once again,
From me.

But I tried.
To give you what you wanted.
I tried,
Till I fell.
You know I tried,
To work with what was handed.
I tried,
Can't you tell?

Red Carnations and Gin.

I love you now,
It's all that should matter.
Every moment together,
We'll remember somehow.

You know there's something about us,
That no one can see.
And though we may wish it,
We soon will not be.

So I'll raise a toast to our fighting,
And a drink to our laughs.
I'll cheer for our crying,
And I'll dream of our start.
So let me touch a glass,
To your peace of mind.
After me.

You're stronger now,
You will know that so soon.
And soon you'll meet someone,
Who sends you over the moon.

Like you made me feel,
Everyday I held to you.
That's when you will know,
This was the right thing to do.

So I'll raise a toast to our fighting,
And a drink to our laughs.
I'll cheer for our crying,
And I'll dream of our start.
So let me touch a glass,
To your peace of mind.
After me.

It's been years too long,
You've moved on much better.
And now I feel sad,
When we could have had each other.

The greatest regrets,
Are the last to come straight.
When I let you go,
It was my greatest mistake.
But now you're so happy,
And I feel the same.
Though we're not together,
I'm glad that you're content and safe.

So I'll raise a toast to our fighting,
And a drink to our laughs.
I'll cheer for our crying,
And I'll dream of our start.
So let me touch a glass,
To your peace of mind.
After me.

Lovesick fool.


I wish I was a better man to you.
I wish I was a better boy for you.
I wish I wasn't, such a fool.
But you picked me up,
And you tied me down,
And took me back to school.

If you can turn me round,
Away from my disposition,
Of wasting time and lying down,
You can become my new religion.

We're perfectly aligned,
Universally refined.
And a part of me,
Makes it feel like,
I have never been declined.
That's why I...

I wish I was a better man to you.
I wish I was a better boy for you.
I wish I wasn't, such a fool.
But you picked me up,
And you tied me down,
And took me back to school.

They think that you're wasting time,
They think that's enough moonshine.
But you stuck through a year,
And now it seems all clear.
That you, are meant to be mine.

Oh we're correctly designed,
Eternally entwined.
And when you,
Stand with me,
I feel a little more refined.
That's why I...

I wish I was a better man to you.
I wish I was a better boy for you.
I wish I wasn't, such a fool.
But you picked me up,
And you tied me down,
And took me back to school.
You make me cool.
