Here lies my words. Some of it makes sense, most of it doesn't.
But all of it comes from my heart and soul.

 
 

So Much More (08-03-09)


Here I am again speaking without talking
It's an empty piece of paper my feelings rest on
The summer feels like a kiss of wind
Only here for a moment before the cold sets in

I want to hear a beautiful girl sing about the joys of life
before my face grows still from the winter snow
near the fountain and up the hill
In the sun tattored and torn
Someone please find the glorious depths within me

Discover me, before I spend another two weeks alone and empty
These tiny vessels float down my veins
without a single destination in sight
Las Vegas is where my parent's love once bloomed

The flames and smoke from my last mistake
are still lingering overhead
At 22 was I right to think I was too crazy to ever get married
Those dark clouds I forgot about from my parent's marriage
Are starting to move this way

Maybe the cycle never stops repeating
Maybe the love I long for is lost at sea
Swimming along side the last girl I turned away
Under the sky in the open air
I wish I could think of something charming to say

In the shape of a city I have yet to visit
The world doesn't seem to make much sense to me right now
Miss-spellings clutter my writings
Like the way yesterday moved right past me
without ever sharing a laugh or a good thought worth keeping

Now I want so much more
But I can't keep the thought of another broken heart coming my way
Like a series of blurs I won't discuss with anyone but the Lord above
Memories of past friends are lost
alongside the neighbors that have long since moved away

Lost in the light of the morning sunrise
Like the beautiful things a child always seems to give this world
Underneath the crashing moon I will hold my head up high
my star may not be that bright right now
But someday it will be
