Fighting in shades of gray Mouthing words I cannot say Before the battle ends Night descends Falling upon hearts betrayed

I fell in love by the sea My heart was swept away by the tid… Only to be set free Riding waves And raging torrents

Last Saturday night We never said our goodbyes We left behind our little white li… Rubbing cheek to cheek With a smile & a wink

You make me crazy Every moment drenched in gold You take hold of me Like a love story once told Swinging in the park

Reaching in the frigid cold Searching for a hand to hold To give me hope To give me strength In the hallows of my mind

Maybe we’re wasting time Pretending to be fine Not addressing the strain We inflicted on our brains Naming names

Head burning Heart yearning Brain churning Feet running Into the unknown

Grasping at pipe dreams Something good Is never what it seems Riding a wave of discontent The sting of doubt unrelenting

Staring into blue Picturing myself with you Dancing in neon lights Drinking till the sun comes up Getting lost in a sea of lonely he…

Staring into your auburn eyes Wishing I could bathe in your lov… Dreaming of you when I’m awake My head spins whenever we kiss My Body quakes

Chasing dreams By any means Wanting more But what for? Lying on the floor

Flirting w/a monster Speaking words so sinister Amber eyes gleaming Until I wail screaming Finger painting in condiments
