Keep me from going to sleep too soon Or if I go to sleep too soon Come wake me up. Come any hour Of night. Come whistling up the road. Stomp on the porch. Bang on the door. Make me get out of bed and come And let you in and light a light. Tell me the northern lights are on And make me look. Or tell me clouds Are doing something to the mooon They never did before, and show me. See that I see. Talk to me till I'm half as wide awake as you And start to dress wondering why I ever wen… read more

In the blink of an eye, our catastrophes take us to new heights. Look for an open window to a new life. You swear you'll never forget the one you had. The love you lost had brought you to your knees. Never will you fall again. Shut the whole world out as you shut your tired eyes. Fall fast asleep and say your goodbyes. read more
Desolate Life

A soft sound of betrayal comes from within as she hits the concrete. Silence is blissful, especially in situations like these. Her words choke from the absent tears. She lays there silent, still, at peace - understanding the pointless confusion. Those eyes - they are hurt & full of broken feelings, yet they are so empty - they are meaningless. Looking around, she sees her world fall completely - it crumbles to the burning ground. Blaming herself for this selfishness, a feeling of guilt &… read more
