Morning Dreamer

Maybe I could change it

Or pretend I'm not me

Naturally, forget 

Cast my gaze to the sea

Or perhaps to the sky

Everyone asks why

Until I concede 

Rambling on about it still 

Battering and bruising my will

And my heart may bleed

Till I wake one bland day 

Like one from a cocoon

And life will start to weigh 

Calloused and lonely moon

Had to please everyone

And let go of the sun

Maybe I could change

And chase after what I desire 

Dreaming always of that fire

Escape pressures range 

Pulled back to the morning

Or to a flaming dream

Until they give warning

Rush away from each beam 

Told what to be and do

Oh, if I could be you

I'd choose to be a morning dreamer - it's true

If We Never Forget

I knew you before we met

    I'll push back the memories and try to forget

Felt things I couldn't admit to yet

    Fading thoughts of what we'll never get

We stayed to watch the credits end

    Writing messages I'll never send

Enjoyed the presence of such a close friend 

    Each heartache is so hard to mend

Never felt like that before

    Not sure what it was all for

Every smile made my heart soar

    Every memory has left my heart sore

Verily amazed by our similarities 

    Vast as our differences may be

Each day connecting more wholly 

    Echoes of each thing you couldn't accept about me

Reality never made more sense, it's true

    Relapsing is still such a tempting thing to do

Felt more myself when I was with you

    Falling in addiction with love too

Our fingers gently intertwined

    Our moments forever stuck in my mind

Rambling words, soft and kind

    Rash decisions that we can't rewind

Gone were the days of loneliness

    Gone are the days I can't help but miss

Etching yourself deeper into my heart with each kiss

    Echoes of such forsaken bliss

Told me you wanted to hold on and we'd never let go of this

    Told me to hold on, and then you let go of us
