Off To Nowhere...

Please stop thinking of me.

Because when you do, I think of you, too. And it makes me wonder if we could have something wild and beautiful, something good and true.

Drag

He loves me because of who I am, not what I can do.
Tell me, why couldn't you?

Yahweh

Were we made to live without You, or were we just made?

5K

There is a quick intimacy about you.
There is also a distance that surrounds you.

Tell me, why is there this distance?

Not Right Now

If I told you that two years from now we would bump into each other on the corner of 4th and Main, would you believe me? I'll be walking to catch the bus, and you'll be late for work. You'll have stopped at a coffee shop other than Starbucks to get your usual, and the only reason we fell into each other is because you always have to check your phone for the time.

Do you remember the day we met? We were both coming around the corner, and we fell into each other because you always check your phone for the time.

Ago

I get tired of listening to you.
And I get tired of kissing you.
Your lips never bring anything new.

Right-handed Hypocrite

Do not ask me "Why?" when you believe nothing happens for a reason.

Purse

If you knew the pain my heart goes through on a daily basis, you wouldn't be jealous of my beauty...you really wouldn't.

Closer

Your touch was foreign and yet so familiar at the same time.
I hate to say that I still long for it.

Lost Along The Way

You won't know when I'm lying to you.
And you won't know when I'm telling you the truth.

The sad thing is I won't know either.

Little Island

The walls of your heart are breaking down in the slowest manner I've ever witnessed. You've found a disconnect, and I've seen that which you lack.

What you don't realize is that, from the moment I met you, I started building a bridge to your heart. And this bridge has braved the coldest of winters. Don't fight me; I didn't come here to hurt you.

Wear

"I don't tell my secrets; I wear them."

Did you not notice how they were revealed to you last night when it began to rain? Did you not see the words blur as they dripped into your hands? They are yours to keep, but beware of the cold weather that is to come. My secrets will freeze, and I'd hate for you to carry them around forever. Because when I'm gone, people will ask you about them. And when they do, you must say, "I don't tell my secrets; I wear them."

Beyond Choices

Fate is the ultimate tragedy of life.

Filling Pews

I don't think you are the most beautiful person.
I don't think you are sincere.
I don't think you are kind.
I don't think you know how to love one another.
I don't think you are happy for other people.
I don't think you know how to tell the truth.
I don't think you even know the truth.
I don't think you can sit in silence.
I don't think you have it all together.
I don't think you know what is right.

But I'm just a whore and an addict, what do I know about human nature?

What I Found

Sometimes the darkness is a better companion than the light.

The Journey Thus Far

There isn't a straight line to where You are...

Play Shadow, Fore--

I've written about you before.
I knew you'd be coming around soon.

I just don't know the rest of the story. . .

Not-So-Ordinary

"You blush when you smile, and you close your eyes when you sneeze.
Many people do this, but you, you do it so well.
When I'm around you, it's as though there is more to life than living."

Far Gone

The secrets you left underneath my shirt that night were cold and broken like a rose in the winter. Why would you whisper such things? And why would you hold them in for so long?

Your secrets are sealed in my heart. I wouldn't unwrap them for anybody...

Scratch

Remember those nights that summer?
You would play the music, and I would dance the dance.

The music ended too soon...

Out of the Wilderness

Soon you will be healed.
Soon it will be a new day.

Stay strong, dear heart, the wait will soon be over, and all that I have promised you will come...

Taken

When I promised you forever, I gave you my heart. And when you give someone your heart, you ask them to take the biggest risk of their life. A risk is when something of utmost value is at it's highest stake.

You do not realize the value of what is within your heart, and you do not know how worthy you were that I took a risk for you.

Picking Up & Leaving Off

I can tell you I listen to our song everyday.
I can tell you I miss your soft skin.
I can tell you I still say the same phrases.
I can tell you I laughed at your jokes the other day.
I can tell you I looked at that picture of us last night.
I can tell you I cried too many tears the day you left.
I can tell you how hard it was to stay away from you.
I can tell you why I did what I did.
I can tell you that your friends still like me.
I can tell you that your mom called me to see how I was doing.
I can tell you it will be a while before I'm okay.
I can tell you I still go back to our place the first Friday of each month.
I can tell you cried too many tears for me the night I let you go.


But I can't tell you if we'll ever be the way we were ever again. . .

End Scene

I will forget your laugh.
I will forget your kiss.
I will forget your love.

And now I'm begging you, please forget me.

Freedom

"And soon it will be as though we never knew each other. . ."
