Gravity

 

Your existence is my gravity 

Not being loved by you would be a tragedy

When you left your absence was a cavity

Every time I’m high is when you laugh at me

Sometimes I wonder if you ever really see me

Smokin in the studio got us feeling soul touchin telepathy

Why’s this music so dark but your are eyes so light?

They make me thing of Venus on a clear night

Your eyes are...

Warnings

I fell for you the night we met
Wore my Star Wars shirt and yoga pants
Felt no need to impress you
He’s just another tattooed bearded boy here to seduce you
It was awkward at first you wouldn’t shut up
I thought about calling my sister and telling her to make some shit up
We had some drinks and started laughing
Our sense of humor melted together, it was like lava swirlin with magic
Neither...

Professor Of The Dark Arts

WAITING FOR YOU WAS LIKE WAITING FOR DEAD GRASS TO GROW

DAY AFTER DAY SLIPPING DEEPER INTO THIS UNKNOWN

EVEN WHEN YOU FINALLY SHOWED UP I FORCED YOU AWAY LIKE A RAGING UNDERTOW

SWEPT OUT TO SEE LEAVING ME EXHAUSTED, BREATHLESS, SILENTLY SCREAMING NO NO NO

I WASN’T READY FOR THE LOVE YOU PRESENTED TO ME

WRAPPED WITH A BOW SO BEAUTIFULLY

I ADMITTEDLY TRIED SABOTAGING THIS WITH MY B...

Senses

 

Senses

 

Oh how your blue eyes see all the little things I try to hide.

Oh how your lips kiss away all my little white lies.

Can you taste what’s happening here?

Can you taste what’s happening here?

 

First night we met, coffee and movie

I stared at the silver screen while you stared at me

You kept kissing my cheek

Held my hand and there I go

Falling right bac...

The Peace Of Pressure

Losing you left me in the dark unforgiving ocean with no flares

Scared and alone, where do I go from here?

Swim to shore or sink with this wrecked ship into the abyss?

My love, it’s so peaceful down here.

The oceans floor is stable unlike your heart.

The waves of grief roll over my mind like a perfect summer set.

The pressure is too immense.

The Black Pearl

Our love was the Black Pearl of the vast oceans

Feared in all four corners of the world, with them they will surely bring the darkest of potions

For years we filled her hull with unspoken devotion

And then one stormy day she ran aground on the rocky shores of treachery, chaos and commotion

With her sails broken and stern cracked, we realized we were unable to push her back into motion

Back To The Start

You have our daughters face tattooed on your chest.
The same place I used to snuggled up next to, lay my head down and finally rest.
You would wrap your tattooed arms around me and I’d trace every line.
Completely content to be yours and for you to be mine.
And then one day everything changed.
She messaged saying she was pregnant, how strange...
All of the sudden you’re weren’t mine anymore.

A Sleepy Love

And I wonder when you look back at me what you see

When I’m sitting there smiling

Thinking how the fuck is he even a relative possibility?

Can he hear my rapid heartbeats or is that just me?

While I look at you I pray to Gods I don’t even believe in to be the woman of your dreams

Exhausted from praying I fall to my knees

I drift off into a deep sleep waiting for you to come find ...

Time To Leave

I look at you I know who you are
My heart can’t recognize you though because of all these scars
It’s like looking back in the rear view mirror after you’ve driven too far
I can see you standing in the drive way
The closer I get to my sanity the further away you are
And you wait for me to turn around for the next thousand days
Hoping I’ll find the strength to overcome this pain
Somewhere in ...
