Haunted

You and your stupid green eyes
And those dimples when you smile
They haunted me 
When you left me

Now they capture me
As you say all these sweet things
Our jokes 
And our new memories

I watched you today 
In a sea of red i only saw you
As you walk with others
Our eyes always seem to meet

Then you came to sit next to me
Shoulders touching
Like when you were stretching 
And you kept moving closer to me

I wish you could see
The feelings you give me
When we touch
Its like sparks ignite

About Her

Today I cried in your arms
You let me feel your warmth
But you you really don't know
How much I want to let go

You like her you say she's nice
And I want you to behappy and at peace
You told me you'd always be my big boeta
So why do I even bother

She's the one for you
So I won't get in the way of you two
I missed that smile you have
Im glad you're happy for once

She likes you too
And you guys are really cute too
All I ever wanted was for you to be happy
And if its without me then that's whats going to happen

So I'll watch over you from the shadows
And I'll be a distant figure after tomorrow

Soulmates

Are soulmates actually real?
Or were they made up to make a broken heart heal?
Is there really one person 
Who will know you better than anyone

I feel like this is all fiction
Like fairytales that leave the naive broken
Are we those people?
Who believe is stories and the occasional fairytale

Hoping that Prince Charming is around ever corner
That there's more to life than just danger
We all want this problem free life we read in stories
But does that really exist in our realities?

Are we better off blind?
That way way we won't have to hide
Or be afraid of love
Or being hurts by those you're supposed to love

Silence

When there's nothing left in you
All thats left is silence
When there's nothing more for you to do
You accept the solemn silence
And it's true that no one care about you
So you live in silence
When you don't even care what happens to you
You yearn for the silence
When you just want to go
There's just darkness and silence

These Lies That You Produce

Dont speak 
Just do
Because Im not going to be trapped 
Within those lies you produce 

Show me my worth
Don't tell me what I mean
Because you can lie about anything 
But when you do it means something 

So dont sweet talk me
And play with my heart
Because if you can do it to me
You can tear others apart 

So don't speak 
Just do
Because im not going to be trapped 
In those lies you produce

Life

Shes swimming in the ocean
But she's not moving
She's lost at sea
But she knows where she's heading

She's confused
Yet she know what she wants to do
She's too afraid to speak
But she speaks the most

Its amazing
How something is constantly changing
How we are at war with ourselves
When we try to figure out our lives

There has to be more than confusion
More that illusions
There has to be something real
Something we can feel

I feel it most days
Others it's just emptiness.

I'Ll Love You

I'll love you till the sun stops shining 
And the moon stops rising
I'll love you till the stars burn out
And the rainbows never come up

I'll love you through winter 
I'll love you through spring 
I'll love you through summer 
I'll love you through auntumn

I'll love you every day and every night
Coz you're all I ever wanted
And you're everything that's right

What Once Was My Love

I think about you 
Any day, any time
Any way, any how
But that doesnt matter now

Coz you wont look at me
You don't even bother talking to me
And Im the one to start the conversation 
And when I dont its like im nothing

Im the one always trying
And im the one who ends up crying
And I know you're blind to me
But I wish you could see 

Oh how I love you
It was always you 
The one who messes me up
The one I cant get enough

You once loved me too
But that's the past and theres nothing left to do
Coz you pretend that you lost your memory 
But i know you just wanted to get rid of me

But like a fool 
I believed you
Im your jester
And youre my puppet master

You control me
Dont you see
I changed coz of you
For you

I dont know what to do
Im left here stranded
Still following you
Like a dog with his master 

You throw the punches 
And i take them and run back to you 
You blow me off
But im still running after you

Like an idiot i fell in love with you
Like a fool i forgave you 
But you're still messing with me
And only now do i see

But I cant keep running after you
And im done 
Coz i cant keep going
Some things were only meant for the moment

And just like everything else in this world
We died
Coz i stopped running
When you didn't even try
