Lovers

We were meant to be more than just lovers
Sharing life, stories, hurt, and joys
But we've become nothing more than lovers
Sharing only tussled sheets, broken hearts, and tearful woes 

Nothing More

It's a ridiculously stupid and inconvenient situation 
But I want nothing more than to be loved by him for the rest of my life 

New Year

I rang in the new year
Thinking only of you:
Instead of what we could be,
What we had been.
And the sadness the overcame me
Wasn't one of loss,
But one of truth accepted.

Dreams

You don't deserve a place in my dreams. 
The hurt upon waking,
The heart-breaking slam of reality,
The loss and the betrayal, 
All come rushing back. 
Alone in my bed, 
Surrounded by pillows still grasping to your scent,
I feel you, reach out, and find only loneliness. 

Without You

Without you here, the days drag on
Hours feel like days,
Heart pounding faster, trying to drive me to you
My breath cannot come fast enough to keep up
My head spins, lost without your touch to steady me

Enough

"I've had enough," I think.
And then I think of you,
There's never enough.
Not enough of your touch,
Not enough of your lips,
Not enough of your eyes 
Burning a hole to the depths of me,
Not enough of your breath in my ear,
Not enough of my name catching in your exhale,
Not enough of you loving me senseless. 

I Feel You

Every single waking day
And every dreaming night,
I close my eyes
And in that silence,
Shut so tight,
I feel you:
Your arms around me,
The weight of you pressed against me,
Your breath in my ear,
And I find myself less alone. 

Fool Hearts

Some things are never meant to be Doomed from the start
But two fool hearts can't see that far ahead 
Try as she might she will never see 
How she got here to the corner of Broken and Alone

Beat

Broken hearts still beat,
Each piece alone to it's own rhythm.
The sound echoing deep in the soul
Until a love so strong 
Drums out a beat 
So they find their way,
And dance together.
