I'm Falling

"I'm Falling"

Please catch me, I'm falling. I'm falling deep into the clouds.

I slipped as soon as I heard you calling, it felt soft like the lightest sound.

My thoughts spring in a field of flowers, all growing with plenty of pretty colors.

They paint portraits of two hearts touching, an art we can both call "lovers".

Your gaze knocked me off balance it was a moment that we shared.

You caught and read my entire story with that very single stare.

Now gravity is pulling me, not only hard but with velocity.

You're all I need; physically, mentally, here with me.

Now catch me because I'm falling with my tears into a river.

Forced to explore more than the pains I always feared when I would shiver.

I've been broken from one piece and glued back with just one peace.

Placed on a flimsy table with labels that read "Do not touch please".

My boat is sinking in a shallow stream. I'm so afraid that I might drown.

And I can see all the swimming trout but I can't seem to pick one out.

Please catch me, I'm falling. I'm falling from the sky that's blue.

So please catch me from falling because I'm falling out of love with you.

The Same Things

"The Same Things"

She's looking for a smile with her name, I'm looking for a laugh with my last.
We're both seeking the same, for life is short and it will pass.
The music plays while we hold hands and spin around a crowded room.
Dancing like no one else is watching and our hearts are one in tune.
The closest pair like 1 and 2, dividing fingers with each other's.
Caressing palms while we're in public since the first day we became lovers.
We say good morning and goodnight despite an argument or fight.
We still talk before we dream about the lovely days of life.
While they drink cups out in the lights, we're drinking warm tea on a table.
Feeding each other all our secrets to make our bond a bit more stable.
All that we want has the same label. We're simply browsing for some bliss
It's all the simple things that matter when you're loving just to please.
One day my heart will fold a knee and take your soul with me to claim it.
There's always love destined to come when both are waiting for the same things. 

The same things.

One Year Away From Old

"One Year Away From Old"

The sun rises and one of my first surprises

is realizing that I survived when some died.

I've seen the waves wash away the beauty made out on the shore.

The ocean holding it like prisoners of war.

Outside is a playground full of innocent minds,

playing a life with no worries and oblivious to time.

Their spring will always shine from the cold like old gold

because their hearts are one year away from old.

I was once told that the older I get,

the more I'll regret.

So I had to let go of the past then learn to forgive and forget.

Live it like my last and drink it like my first.

Arrivals of the grey and wrinkles can't and will not quench my thirst.

I know that one day I'll expire but for now I will unfold.

Forever young until that day I'll stay one year away from old.
