A Thief Called Sleep
Last night I lay, eyes closed, About to go to bed When the meaning of our dismal lives Took form in my head And for those fine few moments I felt at peace and I said “I must tell the world these thoughts” But fell to sleep instead. And in those moments sleeping My memory misplaced, The single greatest string of words That knew all time and space Robbed of this, By a thief called sleep. Never...

Eyes
There he sits the silent one, Eyes burnt red, with tears to come He was eye, just eyes Never thought there’d be this sight Him sitting there, no words or spite Just taking in the fact god took His little girl, his whole world shook To the little moments, he’d hold on tight But short notice made his memory fight No reasons left, no words to say While in front of him, his baby lay Gone....
A Typical Conversation
You ask me why I’m sad I say I’m not “Then why are you wearing that puppy face,” you retort I say I didn’t mean to You nod your head and smile I flash one back You look away and continue your conversation with her If you only knew…

Lyrics Under Construction
3 AM, 4 hours to rise Can’t seem to sleep So I’ll tell myself lies It’s all ok, everything’s just fine So go back to bed It’s all in your mind Dream sweetly, so you can get by Live the life you want to have If only at the night So shut your eye and Let your mind stray Tomorrow’s not here yet And we’re done with today

Song Lyrics Under Construction
His words made no sense, but his eyes said it all From like to new love, so scared that she’ll fall So she laughs it off, the only protection she knows She stays arms length, not in body, but in soul
“Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life. Aim above...”
“Please look over Lock eyes with mine Know I’m watching Though love is blind”

Thinking...
I need to stop caring To stop thinking, thinking, thinking. STOP. Please stop now My body’s tired and I need my rest But my mind wont listen I’ll start to confess I need something tangible A diagnosis, if you will While I find myself - thinking, thinking, thinking, still
I need to stop now My thoughts, I must forget I feel there’s something wrong I just don’t know yet It...

This girl, I see her everyday Bright eyes, but never smiles Walking down the torn up road Each step her burden piles Pink headphones, fingers twirl around Her life within those wires Slowly drags her feet to work Knows not how to desire She wonders that’s the point of life, Eyes straight out, open, but unseeing Thinks nothing will get better here Her reasons left are fleeing Cynical, scared,...
