“You”

February 19th, 2007

I close my eyes and I imagine “you.” “You” and me. What do I mean by “you” and me – I do not know. I don’t know who “you” is. I’ve lost it, the feelings I used to know so well. All gone. All washed down the drain. Missing. I fade away from my heart. It can’t break if it’s not being used. So don’t use me. “You.” The unknown. So distant. But I want “you.” I want to know “you.” I want to love “you.” “You.” My secret. I don’t know “you.” But forever “you” is all that is on my mind. Perfection trapped in imagination. Love that is stopped at a limit. Someday I will meet “you.” Someday I will know “you.” Someday I will love “you.” Someday “you” will hurt me. Someday “you” will break my heart. But for now, “you” is no one. “You” is just my imagination. “You” is nothing more than pixels formed on the computer screen typed from my fingertips. “You.” Trapped in my brain. “You” is no one. Maybe I am crazy, but I need “you”. I need to meet “you,” I need to know “you,” I need to love “you.” For once I have met “you,” I will truly understand. I will finally end my wondering. “You” will complete me. “You.” Such strange letters. Why – oh – you. “You.” My mind has created “you.” Someday “you” will be more than imagination. I still want to know who “you” will be. Maybe “you” will read this. Until then, “you” is no one. “You.” No one. Nothing. “You,” My love. No one. “You.”

Just Like Me

January 28th, 2007

You don’t know
What I still feel
And all this pain
It can’t be real
I lost my voice
I’m unable to speak
And these words I can’t say
They make me weak
Look into my eyes
Before the twinkle goes away
I’ll let these feelings slip
But in my heart, they’ll always stay
And every time
I hear your name
It makes me weak
But I’m the one to blame
And these tears in my eyes
Make me unable to see
That they’re falling for you
That they’re just like me

Time

January 2nd, 2007

Time was closing in
All I did was breathe to ease the pain
But as every second passed
I could feel I was growing insane
I knew about my heart
It was growing so cold
And all these memories I hold
They are growing so old
So I take a deep breath
And see what’s been left behind
Because now that it’s passed
I can’t just push rewind
My heart’s been left empty
And there’s no going back
And I’m never going to find it
Everything my heart lacks
And it’s all gone
It’s disappeared in the past
And don’t take time for granted
Because time never lasts
