The First Goodbye

laying in your bed
watching you
get dressed
the permanent ring in the
back pocket
of your blue jeans
i’m missing you already

3000 Miles From 3am

You're 3000 mile away
its 6 am
I'm in my own bed
dead asleep
my phone rings
its 3am
but your voice could wake me from a coma
you're 3000 miles away
and its only 3am

The Date

in the dimness of the tea lounge
i stared into the dark depths
that were your pupils
and
clung to every word that escaped
the curve of your lips

Soldiers Girlfriend

I’m proud of the man in front of me

Dressed in his ACUs

But i miss the guy you use to be

Blue Jeans and your boots.

I miss the way you drive your truck

i miss the sweet soft stares.

I miss the man you use to be

I’m not sure hes still there

The Way

Its the way the breeze whispers

across my skin

and the sun caresses

me

in his warmth

 

its the way you love me

even when you’re not here

Only Friends

it felt like
fire
being in her arms
but the tighter i held on
the colder she became

it tasted like
home
her lips on mine
but the more i longed for her
the more strange she was

it felt like
love
the time i spent with her
but the time passed by
and i realized we were

only friends

Through You

I can see it now
sweet curve of a smile
matching the one of her hip

the light in her eyes
and the feel of
skin on skin

the way you stare
the smirks
your silence screams

I can see the way you
love her
adore her

need her

I can see it now
i can see me
through you

Sleeping Pills

the look on your face

was the pain

that i felt

when you told me

 

i wanted to touch you

to make it okay

 

fingers entwined

your body on mine

i will be your sleeping pills

4:44 Am

I should leave

she sighed into his neck.

You cant he whispered back.

You take a part of me when you go

this is all that's left

Love Drunk

I’ve turned you into a

HEAVY DRINKER

my love couldn’t drown

you

so you drown yourself in

liquor
