BIG US BIRTHDAY
NOT REALLY GOING TRUMP’S WAY
MANY HOME WILL STAY
Yeah I'm great.
How 'bout you?
Did you accomplish all the dreams, you chose to pursue?
I bet you did.
Bet you went far.
No doubt you became famous, a real superstar.
Well like I said.
Myself I'm fine.
Though I never did move on from you, I'm sure there's peace to find.
It's been so long.
Did you find love?
I'm sure he marvels at you like you are the stars above.
You were so gorgeous.
Always will be.
After I met you, you became all that I could see.
I hope he knows.
I really do.
Just how lucky he could be to have a chance to be with you.
You lit the sky.
But I digress.
As I said before my life is hardly still a mess.
It's long but over.
I had to stop.
I was never able to pick up my heart after the drop.
It's not an issue.
It never was.
A lie I tell myself each day, if only just because.
I never had people in my life to be forgotten ,
I have people to be remembered and cherish.. To all the clouds who moved away, thank you! You made my sunshine to glitter !
If you stick on something, make sure it's worth!
Welcome the positivity, keep your circle with love and warmth.
I’m naïve to your reasoning
I don’t know what you want
In my defense
You’re pretty tense
For bein’ “nonchalant”
You say it doesn’t bother you
Your body language lies
You’d rather look at T.V.
Than look me in the eyes
I’m not one to provocate
I’ll bow out gracefully
But just know this
Your lips, I kiss
With insincerity
When all the world seems to fall apart,
and sunshine seems to be nothing but a myth
When everything seems to have stopped the beating of my heart
I think of you.
I think of you
and all my problems fade away
I forget the importance of it all
My heart flutters at every word you say
The words you say heal my broken heart
You say you love me
and I forget "why did this fight ever start?"
I can't recall
All I know is I'm tired of fighting
So I nestle into your arms
Then comes the lightning
and the fire !
But you swallow my word with a kiss
And all thoughts are lost
as we enter pure bliss.
