She’s awake, though, wide awake, her mind miles away, spinning stories she knows aren’t true, dreams she knows will never come to life.

Perhaps you heard a distant song That mortals cannot sing; Perhaps it made your heartbeat long For such a pretty thing. Perhaps you saw beyond your eyes What dirt and clay can’t form; Perhaps you know what beauty lies Beyond the mortal storm. Why then, pursue it, as you must, One cannot let it go; But gold is not akin to rust, We can but little...

I look up at the night sky, seeing the shining stars. I think of you when I see those stars. I long to hold you, to touch you, to kiss you. I wish to hold your body close to mine, and keep you with me for as long as we live. I wish to see you. I wish to love you, and you love me...

Got stuck on you This feeling never makes me blue You are part of me And you’ll always be Underneath our soul We find love Despite of distant far Yet, never did we feel dole Night falls and dawn breaks These two hearts do still long For the sweet kisses and hugs Forever entwined, our love song The evening is filled up with bunch of stars...

I have a secret happy place that's deep inside my head, It's where I like to visit every night when I'm in bed. I travel there by boat, the sail flaps gently on the mast, The ocean shines a million shades of blue, the sky is vast. My happy place appears on the horizon far away. I land my boat...

I saw you again today Walking alone in the hallway We did not even share a glance There was no falter in your stance You walked right by I could say I did not care but that would be a lie Because the truth is it hurt My mind raced for a word my mouth could blurt One word that would make you...

A distant being So far he has lived, through dimensions and dimensions in a dream world That is the power land, magical, spiritual, but stranger super kind of life Not a human, not a human life, but not an angelic, reality is the true demonic He is a noble life, a stranger, but a friend of some humans, hmm,...

For now, his feet stumbled, Clang! The gun fell out of his hands, He sat with a thud beside the brick wall, Waiting for the imminent relief, As he looked to the stars, The pain seemed to fade away, The memories of the village gushed in again, The jets' roar now seemed like a bird's chirp, As his fallen companions moaned, He heard the...
