Midnight Memories

Tonight I don't feel like falling asleep,
Tonight I just want to think widely and deep,
I just want to feel the solemn atmosphere,
I just want to enjoy the serene view above here.

As I go on stargazing by myself;
I remember all the hardships that I've dealt
I remember all those peoples I have left,
I remember the only love I have felt.

I looked around as the moon lights up the fields,
I watch over the winds that blows the trees,
Tonight only memories are all I wield,
As I close my eyes and feel the cold night's breeze,

At one blink of my eye,all the memories flashed back
I remember those days when my life falls out of track,
Since the day I met you,I felt a sense of luck,
Since the day I lost you I know that love is all I lack.

I see you within the shadow upon the trees,
I feel you within the winds and it's cold breeze,
I hear you within the rustling sounds of the leaves,
I loved you for who and what you are at ease.

As I lie down the ground in the misty plains,
i feel as my heart gets covered in pain,
Here in the misty grass I lie
As my heart into you says-
goodbye

The Crow

The night was cold and dark and deep,
but you still stayed out alone,
watching over the sinking ship;
unmindful of the storm,
ripples formed on the water's surface,
as the ship sank underneath
ripples grew into giant waves,
devouring all that't heaves,
crushing to this lonely bay,
sweeping all the huts,
washing all humanity,
removing all its tracks,
but you stood still above the tree
unmindful of the storm,
knowing your black feathers
would shiver nevermore.
