~Storyline~

I’m what
you wanted
not what you need

let’s meet in the middle
And the fork
In the road
Will go
somewhere

The light
gleams
in an instant,
then it
is dark once more
Veins
Of the leaves
Transparent
With sunlight

Daylight
Fading slowly
Losing will
To try

Told you
it was going
to wake you up,
when it's all over
All the paths
that lead to you
are winding
and all the
Street lights
are blinding
you always
said you saw
sweet hope
in my eyes,
my head
grew heavy
my eyes
grew dim,
If I’m wrong
im half right
Wearing me out
Wearing me down
Imposible
to figure out
But not easy
To forget

Been so
cold
The lines
on my face
Tell stories
You can’t
Earase

So this is it
I’ll say goodbye
To my
ever-changing life

One step
Closer
To good
It will be kind
It will be real

People won’t
smile and
then move on,
I feel like
I’m watching
it all
Through
a telescope

lost in the mists
One way ticket
in the rain
Don’t you
tell me to fall
if you won’t
be there to
catch me.

Oh, I’ll be there
to catch you
This is your
Storyline
we’ll go through
this crazy world together

I’ve been stumbling
around this world
looking for an anchor
to hold me
No one listens
When you want
to be heard

It’s not
Just an old shoe
It’s a horse
Of a completely
different color

Watch your step
The freezing cold
truth hurts,
but here it is,
gonna serve it up raw

Trying to hold
on it all fell apart,
trying to let go
right out
the window
We got a whole lot
of moonlight
Left

just getting started

~Descent~

Still warm
from the sun
In the wake
of your smile
Didn’t know where
I was really going

trying to keep
my life on the tracks
just barely on the edge

Blown away
barely breathing
twisted and spinning
Towards something
with no name

Angels running
out of time
Something real
but out
of touch

think of
the tender things
that we are
working on
rain keeps
falling down
Filling
My corners
Shadows tha
Remain from
Your descent

you be my honeysuckle
I’ll be your honeybee
I got you smiling
shing at me
soft and sweet
you speak
from the heart

At the end
of the day
I want a life
that’s good
Footsteps
Of dawn
echo
Down my
hall

Whisky whispers
Temptation in
my ear
The moon
comes up
from the dust
Silver
trembling

Breath
is a sea mist
Surrounding my
body only
when I sleep
I’ll give
Anything
to roll
the dice
one more time

~Lillies~

Mysterious
As the dark side
Of the moon
Where did
it go
Lilies
and snow
Winter
The world
with fragile things
Sweet rapture
And light
Looking in

Outside looking in
Beauty begins
the moment you
decide to be yourself

Let the world
spin outside our door
Some kind
of harmony
The signal changed
Safe inside
Myself
You’re the only one
I want to see see

When you smile,
you knock me out
and i fall apart

the sun still
comes up
and the world
still spins,
it’s just the luck
of the draw
I guess
We plant seeds
in the ground,
you just want
to move around,
You keep ranting,
we know who’s
really doing
the planting,

Tiny little
boxes in a row
It’s only about
what you know
if you’re happy
in the same shoe’s
It’s not slowing down

Life
such a blunder
sometimes
I even wonder
I got some
imperfections
I bend
Till I break

Right here waiting
For something hazy
Right here waiting

Tomorrow creeps
on the petty wings
of everyday

you have to
live an ocean away,
you can write ryhmes
but you can't
write mine

I’ll try to
join you
in the night

Something
in your smile
you know

Until the
Full moon
When nothing
Is reserved

Light up
My darkness
Holds me
Together
In this
Strage
Sweet dream


Those who
don’t try
don’t look foolish
I live for
Little moments
Like that
Lost
In silence
My heart
is on the run
Until it’s

found a home

~Creaks~

Tick tock
were on
the clock
Fake words
Fake apologies
It’s a little
too wrong
a little too late
This house
is too short
with regrets,
even the creaks
aren’t comforting
anymore

you can’t
change me
that’s not love
In the place
where the water
meets the sky,
makes me cry
when it’s quiet,
when the storm
is passed

take my hand,
to understand,
through the haste
and hurry,
nowhere to turn,
life’s standing
still my
souls confused,
I don’t know,
what road
I can choose,
but I’ll see you
again I’ll carry you

That's just the way
the sun must shine
A changed soul
With a
tied tongue
to match it
I have forgotten
Pure sweetness

Drama
Left unsaid
Thank them
for that
More than
just a touch
Of madness

You don’t know
Only the
shadow
Knows

I flew too
close to the sun
Now I’m
the flame

I’m a stranger
In this place
No more trying
For what
Isn’t there

Didn’t know that tears
Could make emotions blue
It’s broken
Stay away
I’m done
Dragging my heart
Around

Maybe there’s
A garden
You haven’t planted

yet
