Words, Actions, Feelings, Leading To Realization

Cradling my dreams Tossing and turning The words so eloquently hanging in space Are consequently just as they were described Words Filled with fluff and not enough substance I want to give you the world Mine And everything that fills those cracks in between Actions Wanting only to feel closer In the end Free falling into a pit of your disappointment Gasping My mistakes choke me as the black water envelops my ears As I am only pulled further, deeper Shrouded in my own self hatred My eyes have become a lighthouse for disaster Leading you closer to me Nearer to your own destruction Set your sails to escape the darkness that I am Raise your sights upon something higher Follow the horizon line that takes you far from me I try to fix it but in the end I chase you further away Actions speak louder than words How can it be that I show you the monumental effect your life has on me? Feeling As if a thousand snowflakes soared through the sky kissing my skin as they dwindle Hanging by a thread in time The fire of this moment where your eyes meet my gaze warms my cheeks and brings redness to these comatose lips You breathe life into this lifeless world The stars hang their heads On nights where I have lost my way Your face is dearly missed, I feel alone Collecting the dust on nights that are the brightest Hope is what will help me return to you one day Feeling the separation of our two hearts Hating every miserable moment of it Cold, the feeling which in turn is The rhythmic dance from within, but Is stuck Broken? No It is the distance, my rival The emperor and final ruling of all my destruction Fight? I must first escape to surive it Diving from the highest point My last thoughts are on you my love In that jumping forever, could never compare to the moment we fell in love Is it worth it? Without it, nothing is worth anything Proclaiming my love at the top of my lungs Ringing from the corners of the world In the end what we are doing is Resisting the lies others have spoken Holding onto the truth There is no one that will ever be as wonderful to me other then you
