Good bye less
I can feel you climbing out of bed gently, yet I awake
I can feel you leaving but I cant stop you so I sleep and fake
I can hear your soft footsteps as silently you sneaked
I can hear you tie your shoelaces as continuously you peaked
I can feel your love, your care gradually fading torn asunder
I can hear objections protest by lightning and by thunder
I can see your shadow reflect upon the empty wall
I can see it by every step you take become so small
I can see you stand against the door second thoughts your taking
I can notice you're wondering if the right choice you're making
I can hear your heart beating louder as regret fulfils
I can hear your mind thinking of something that bewilders
I can see you nudge your head ignoring all those begging illusions
I can see you turn your back on me causing random explosions

Mystical kiss
I feel it all within your kiss
the love, the passion the imotional mist
kiss me like you have never kissed before
kiss me like you will never stop wanting more
Kiss me let me taste every tooth and tear
kiss me let me imbibe every pain and fear
I will never forget even if I tried
I will never get over it even if I cried
I will love you to death
I will spare my last breath
I will do it all for you
Kiss me now before you regret it tomorrow
Kiss me, let hapiness spread instead of sorrow
Kiss me, I will not close my eyes
I know it feels like a dream in paradise
I will never forget even if I tried
I will never get over it even if I cried

Arabian sacrifice
Melting yellow sun
pale surviving camels
no where or way to run
deserts full of symbols and temples
you look at me although its forbidden
you know the risk is high
you realize your committing a sin
yet you beg me to meet you or claim to die
I don’t mind, knowing the consequence
eyes lay upon us and watch so accurately
we speak by eye contact we leave no evidence
everything seems to work out correctly
Then we no longer manage to hide
we realize anything is easier then separation
we are hurting and burning inside
we suffer gradually of desperation

Valentine's Rose
I handed you my valentine rose and said i loved you
you smiled and said but not as much as i do
I said my love that makes no sense leave it like it was
you said my love, i guess love just never does
with your fancy words you impressed me more
and with your lips you took me beyond the deepest tour
i said i know life didnt treat you right but i will try to
you said yes life wasent fair untill it gave me you
i wanted to give you everything you never had
i wanted to show you life could mean more than feeling sad
i wanted to spend my life in denial and think that we could be
but each time i fooled my self you would be right there to remind me
now i know what they mean when they say its too good to be true
i knew this day would come but that never stoped me from loving you
my fingers running through your hair my love how can i forget
your perfume through my veins my love my life started the day we met

Broken pattern
We had never found ourselves here before; we never needed to walk out the door. The slamming door is followed by the silence of the night,
But in my mind still exists the loudness of the scary fight.
I let myself fall for you, knowing it could not be, an end before the start, You knew it too, but never prevented me, a classic story of a broken heart.
And I try to sleep the pain away, but it haunts me even that deep. I can hear my heart pray, as my tears drown me in my sleep.
My heart deceives me again and will not take the blame, it's addicted to loss with no gain, it's a pattern, and it has always been the same.
I am not blinded by the sunshine anymore; their words of hope are not reaching me. I am searching for my lost core, intimidated of losing and losing eternally.
I start by counting every minute, hour, and day, if I am able. I celebrate any strength I have found. Outside everything is still and stable. But in me everything is spinning around.
Missing you, the way I do is filling my heart with creases. Thinking of you, as often as I do is tearing my mind into pieces. Don't ask; you now know it all, every time I rise I must fall.

Destiney's Desire
I love you so much that I cant even believe
it hurts if I think and when I breath
I’ve seen you touched you once in my dreams
I’ve shouted your name but you haven’t returned my screams
I am obsessed I am haunted when it comes to you
I’ll wait I am patient only because I am compelled to
I hear your voice minutes away I know your future not your past
those minutes seem like years till you get here then they turn too fast
I see your eyes I know an earthquake’s coming
I stand still I wont hide or even try running
you come close step by step your'e not even reluctant
you approach with no fear no second thoughts like it was meant
you walk near me you nearly pass me by
I grab your hand with anger and ask why
I ask when it will stop, when will it all come to an end
you said it wont you cant, your faithful you’ll even pretend
