Inside joke

I'm moving on now
I thought I'd let you know
I'm moving away now
Soon you'll see the show

I don't know if you see
Me the way I see you
I think you only notice me
When I'm talking to you

I think of you all the time
Yet you hardly remember my name
You are my sun to shine
On the darkest days in the heaviest rain

I dream of you
And long for your face
Do you dream of me too?
Or long to be in my place?

I'm moving on starting today
It's time for me to start to train
That's it I'll be on my way
I need to quit hiding from the pain

Pain says you'll never love me
And my heart knows it's true
But hope says "wait and see
I've been waiting for a year or two

Maybe when you see me one day
You'll realize you loved me
And you'll run to me and say
"I love you do you love me?"
And I'll tell you I loved you everyday

And that is why I must leave

For today your heart belongs somewhere else
And I can't take watching your smiles belong to him
When all I want is to watch your eyes light up
And see time work its magic on your beauty

I was only ever joking with myself
Thinking I had a chance at you this life

Sprog

I remember your smile with the sun in your eyes,
And the smell of the summer, the sound of the breeze -
I remember your shape under powder-blue skies;
Under wandering clouds; under whispering trees.
I remember the feel of the grass at our back,
And the touch of its warmth, and the cool of the shade,
And the calls of our friends from the river-way track,
And the season that last for an age when it stayed.
I remember the fire we built of a night,
And the sight of the stars as they slipped in a stream,
And the furtive first-kiss that we shared by its light,
And the simple, impossible, innocent dream.
I remember you most in the starlight above,
But for you it was fun - and for me it was love.

Too old for Disney movies


I can write the saddest poem of all tonight. 

Write, for instance: "The night is full of stars, 
and the stars, blue, shiver in the distance." 

The night wind whirls in the sky and sings. 

I can write the saddest poem of all tonight. 
I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too. 

On nights like this, I held her in my arms. 
I kissed her so many times under the infinite sky. 

She loved me, sometimes I loved her. 
How could I not have loved her large, still eyes? 

I can write the saddest poem of all tonight. 
To think I don't have her. To feel that I've lost her. 

To hear the immense night, more immense without her. 
And the poem falls to the soul as dew to grass. 

What does it matter that my love couldn't keep her. 
The night is full of stars and she is not with me. 

That's all. Far away, someone sings. Far away. 
My soul is lost without her. 

As if to bring her near, my eyes search for her.
My heart searches for her and she is not with me. 

The same night that whitens the same trees. 
We, we who were, we are the same no longer.

I no longer love her, true, but how much I loved her. 
My voice searched the wind to touch her ear. 

Someone else's. She will be someone else's. As she once 
belonged to my kisses. 
Her voice, her light body. Her infinite eyes. 

I no longer love her, true, but perhaps I love her. 
Love is so short and oblivion so long. 

Because on nights like this I held her in my arms, 
my soul is lost without her. 

Although this may be the last pain she causes me, 
and this may be the last poem I write for her.

Wreck it Ralph

I love you but you don't love me
You're all I ever want to see 
In every dream of mine and every thought
That kind of love cannot be taught

I see your face in my mind
And remember all those times
We ran and laughed and sung
Tasted smiles on the tip of our tongues 

You light up my day in the middle of the night
When you talk to me my vision takes flight
So that you're all My eyes can see
And hear 
And say
"With you I long to be"

You took a backseat ride
When you could've been at my side
3 missed calls and wasted time
This poem about you shouldn't even rhyme

You lie and have lost my trust
But you forgot who came first
And this time there's no red book
For your mind's remberance look

Maybe I hold on to what I feel
Or maybe you're too scared to seal
Your fate and fall again
But what's the point of pain?

I'll dream of you tonight
But awake without a single delight.
I love you but I don't think you'll ever see
That time in the past when you once loved me

Colors

I've seen blue skies
And tasted blueberry pie
The ocean the lake
A baby boy's first cake
A sad face and some bass tunes
I know everything that comes in blue

Yellow is in my ears
Helping me face my fears
A slide a coin a light
Slow down and taste bitter fight

I've always hated green
Too much grass to be seen
A towel a leaf and a growing Plam tree
Just enough shade for you and me

Purple is whatever- I see it in the sky
But only when the sun has said goodbye
Close to orange and not far from blue
Plum and Arizona and crazy and new

Orange is a weird color in my mind
A sour taste and end of a race
A treasured face I have to find

I dream of others but deep down I know
For me no colors will ever glow
Except what I chose to say
Is ever black and shade of grey

The heart is too deep a place to explore

'Those who are heartless once cared too much.' 



All it takes is one bad day to reduce the sanest man alive to lunacy. That's how far the world is from where I am. Just one bad day.



"Love in action is a harsh and dreadful thing compared to love in dreams" 


Don’t let us forget that the causes of human actions are usually immeasurably more complex and varied than our subsequent explanations of them.

There is something at the bottom of every new human thought, every thought of genius, or even every earnest thought that springs up in any brain, which can never be communicated to others, even if one were to write volumes about it and were explaining one's idea for thirty-five years; there's something left which cannot be induced to emerge from your brain, and remains with you forever; and with it you will die, without communicating to anyone perhaps the most important of your ideas.

Heart just isn't big enough

There are not enough tears to cry
Not enough tissues to dry
One Too many empty skies
And a fox with the deepest blue eyes

A dream in time from last months yesterday
Should've never fallen asleep that night
Cried and shouted my way to mcdonalds
Watched your feet close in the garage

Not enough time in my life to forget that memory
All I ever can never unsee
Red and blue and flannel and yellow
Broken lights of immense sorrow

It's been too long to tell anyone
It's been too long it should be done

The dust cloud has settled
And my eyes are clear
But sometimes in dreams of impact I still hear....
I'll never forget as long as I live
What you couldn't try to remember

You think we've changed
But hearts cant be rearranged 
I won't tell myself what I know isn't true
-My love will never be mirrored by you
