Never Stop
Never stop looking through me There are things that only you can see Your hands are the only ones I want to feel I reach for you until I stall My mind rushes through every move The words I wish you would say only leave you mute My love for you has more than grown … Continue reading Never Stop
Empty Terminal
My heart is like an empty terminal Sometimes it feels things too deeply Ruthless and threatening Tender but deafening Knowing whether to stay or go Seeing things for what they do not show Waiting in line to retrieve my ticket Constantly missing every minute It’s like the runway is far too long I never make … Continue reading Empty Terminal
