As I lay down tonight I think of you
I wish you could be here and in my arms
I long to be close to you
I long to hear your laugh
I’m aching to see your smile
And I’m dying to kiss your lips
All through night and day I think of you
When things are the bleakest
That’s when they can be the grandest
When things look the darkest
That’s when they can shine the brightest
Look up to the horizon
Look forward to the hope
I fell hard for you
There was nothing I could do
You're the one that set me free
Te one who taught me love could be
When your new flame grows colder
You can come cry on my shoulder
Love may not keep us together
But it will last longer than forever
Hard times came our way
There wasn't much we could say
We slowly drifted apart
But you still hold some of my heart
When your new flame grows colder
You can come cry on my shoulder
Love may not keep us together
But it will last longer than forever
It can be more derisive than a million words
It can be more heart breaking than a tear
It can be more joyous than a child's laughter
It can be more wistful than a thousand beggars
It can be more than many ever see
All can be expressed in a sigh
Death to sorrow
Death to sadness
Because I know
She deserves gladness
Life is but a lie
Nothing but a part of death
Birth begins your end
I'm really not sure I like it, it doesn't have the right feel but it popped into my head so I wrote it... Joli's really got me turned onto Haiku.
The night swallows me
A single moment of rest
One small taste of death
The fire dances
A single flame
Dancing alone
Waiting for the moment
When it will blaze
Black fire spark of life
A beast rising from within
Demon that I am
How many times have you died today?
How many times did I hear you say
It’s just one roll away
Life’s just a game you play
It’s just another game
Everything is the same
No matter what I do
I am nothing to you
There’s no way that I will hear your lie
How many times are you gonna try
To drag me to die
This line I will not buy
It’s just another game
Everything is the same
No matter what I do
I am nothing to you
It’s Russian Roulette with 6 bullets
You know pain is what everyone gets
This time you lose all sets
This time you lose all bets
Don’t try to drag me along
I will not play
Roll the dice on your own
I’m done because
It’s just another game
Everything is the same
No matter what I do
I am nothing to you
I know one of these days I'll die
I wonder if one of them will see me truly cry
The tears are there
They're just waiting to fall
Maybe I will and my soul will bare
Then again maybe she'll call
Truth be told
I really don't know
I do know this pain is getting old
One day I'll finally completely let go
I'll get up and get on
I'll forget what's gone
No turning back to wonder why
So I'm not gonna try
I know there is no rhyme
I can't help that we ran out of time
I guess that's life
It happens to everyone
I know I shouldn't focus on the strife
What's done is done
I will smile
The pain is healing
Sure it may be a little while
Someday I'll learn again to start feeling
I'll get up and get on
I'll forget what's gone
No turning back to wonder why
So I'm not gonna try]
Looking to the future
I know it's waiting for me
Looking to the future
I know it's waiting to be
I'll get up and get on
I'll forget what's gone
No turning back to wonder why
So I'm not gonna try
I'm sinking deep into the abyss
This hole in my heart is so heavy
A lead weight made of nothing
Water logged with loneliness I sink
A single tear falls
It's descent an eternity
One tear
Of pain
Of love
Of joy
One tear
It tells it all
One tear from the heart
