If my heart had a journal
you would read about a love that's eternal
anything negative that was said
it wouldn't matter
not today
or any other day for that matter
word for word
line for line
love will always be mine forever
because eternal means forever
sounds like quite the endeavor
for some it may seem like a really long time
but I've never felt anything as sublime
as love
so no matter what
it's what I feel
especially now
and although people always ask me how
with everything I've been through
how is it still possible
some are even still asking me why
but I simply reply
with everything I've been through
how can I not

That's me off in the distance
I offer little resistance
as I watch you from afar
like a star
through the lens of my telescope
with the hope that you would shine
but I knew you would be just fine
thoughts of being by your side still haunt me
I wasn't as close as I wanted to be
and what I wanted to see
I could only see from afar
so how can I be where you are
maybe I'm afraid
even though I have nothing to fear
is that why I feel safer over here
maybe I'm being selfish
but it just felt right
to stay out of sight
while keeping you in my sights
I didn't want my love to be in your way
so I found a way to love you
and still have an amazing view
as I watch how amazing you become
from afar

Maybe it's not all
bad having a place you can
go to be alone.

If you loved her the most
why didn't you keep her close
no wonder she went ghost
what's the lesson here
don't take your woman for granted
because you won't be able to stand it
seeing her kiss someone else
wishing she was still kissing you
and maybe she's missing you
like you miss her
but you'll never know it
her pride won't let her show it
then you'll find yourself posting pictures
talking about how this could be us
or how this should be us
but all that does
is force you to remember what was
then you become even more sad
as you remember what you once had
you've gone from words unspoken
to a heart that's broken
now you'll never feel her lips again
who cares if she wasn't a ten
she was the one

Seeing your breath is
sometimes the only way to
know you're still alive.

Before you go
save me a kiss
take my breath away
the way you used to
keep me coming back
asthma attack
that won't stop me
just so you know
so before you go
save me a kiss
but not just any kiss
the kiss of life
without a doubt
that's the one I want
so how about once more
just like before
only this time
let's stop time
so you don't have to go
please don't go
we can make it last
even better than the past
kiss me
save me
<3

Have you ever see a man break down
and not just break down
but break down in the rain
I thought it would wash away the pain
but it didn't
it did however disguise my tears
something I've been trying to do for years
nevertheless I kept walking
until I found myself talking
to a parking lot attendant
who went from attending to the cars
to attending to my scars
it's amazing where one can find solace
and as the rain continued to pour
so did the emotion
as I spoke on my devotion towards the cause
because that's why I'm here
my purpose is still clear
but at times my hands still shake
I'm not sure how much more of this I can take
as I finally made it to my car
I realized that I parked pretty far
but nothing I went through could stop me
I guess that means the rain will quit before I do
