A Too Familiar Place

As the world spins 'round,
I'm stuck in one place,
with a halfway broken heart
and a too familiar face.

All I see is darkness,
not even artificial light,
so I remain still and listen,
watching my faith become my sight.

I've poured out my soul
into one, broken being
for whom I struggle so,
which causes his instant fleeing.

My heart is in the right place,
but I'm doing everything wrong.
With a far too impatient being,
too far into the future I long.

I don't want to give up yet,
for fear the outcome will surely cause pain,
and with my whole heart I love,
but a strength and hope, I feign.

I cannot hope to roam once more,
but this too familiar face
is far too sick of being stuck
in this same familiar place.

The Sweetest Boy

The sweetest boy I ever met
Was a wondrous boy, still growing yet.

He told me stories of his gloomy past,
With no remorse, no looking back.

His heartbeat always lulled me to sleep,
And in my mind his smile I'd keep.

For us, I thought every love song written,
And for him I was completely smitten.

He was the star in my sky,
The wind in my wings,
The apple of my eye,
The king to my queen.

The blood in my veins,
The breath in my lungs,
The rhythm in the rain,
Sweetest song ever sung.

Any words, any language could never express,
And to him I could give nothing less,
Than my heart and my soul,
My start and my whole,
My being, complete control.

He taught me what it meant to love,
Gave me hope every day,
But I'm as fragile as a dove,
Because my heart with him will stay.

I know for him, I had to be made
And nothing on earth could have me swayed.

I love this boy, I'll scream it out,
I need this boy, without a doubt.

In my heart, I swear him to hide,
Until the very day I die. <3

I'll find you

I'd walk a million miles for you
I'd swim the depths of oceans blue
I'd fight your wars and reign supreme
For you I'd do anything.

I'd take a bullet to the chest
I'd lay down my life to give you rest
I'd give up all for just one kiss
And when I'm gone, it's you I'll miss.

Wish I could express what it does to me
When I understand that you could leave
I want your heart, I want your soul
Wanna be be the half that makes you whole.

I don't know what or when I did,
But I beg you please, me to forgive
I don't know my wrong, or my offense
So I've been shattered ever since.

I want to be different than the rest
Wanna make that heart beat in your chest
So when the morning comes anew,
I pray in my heart I'll still find you.
