Sing To MeA veritable waste
In an unknown atmosphere …
A long and empty space
Between what is gone and what remains here.

A fear I never knew
Yet feel deep down, completely
Encapsulated, and brand new.
A delicate balance, imprisoned so freely.

And what is left to do
But to hear your voice again?
Ringing clear, sounding so true -
A lilting solo that just began.

A common courtesy,
A loving, charitable stance.
Sing to me so graciously
And give me just one more chance.

Endlessly, I feel you -
Please take me by the hand.
Grace me with that voice, do,
And leave me not to this land

Of violence and make-believe,
I dare not share this woe.
We should

What You're worthWhat is then the worth of time?
An instant, an hour, a night and day,
Moments with you are ever sublime,
For these what price shall I pay?
As sun melts to rain and day to night
Whispers continue by star shines that keep,
On darkest of days each mutter my light,
Arcane confidences in heart held deep,
Never left, never lost, never taken by years,
Seconds tick on and eternally reside
In bottled up laughs and waterless tears,
Their importance greater than oceans wide.
Every second you breathe, you smile, you live,
Is one that for nothing I’d ever give.

What Should Never BeYou were the warmth
I never knew could burn so
you were the familiar
who never woke as I turned to go

I was the protection
I never knew I could trust
you were the temptation
I thought of as anything but lust

Now here is this doubt
I never saw coming to me
There once was wisdom
but that has been usurped easily

An ease of hand there
that I never could expect
fingers tracing on me
the new boundary lines to respect

But you with those lips
I never dreamed to feel softly
and me with these shackles
you never wanted to give in to me

You were the wrong dream
the one with all the broken parts
but I was gone in the light
after you had found my fa

Our LoveI raise my hand to yours.
Our love will open doors.
My love is yours truly.
My heart yours to keep.

Our love will open doors.
Will you be mine?
My heart yours to keep.
Our love will let us shine.

Will you be mine?
Without you I will weep.
Our love will let us shine.
Or let me hear that final beep.

-HeartlessTales

Learning to FlyWe are the wretched ones
Without purpose or name
The ones the whole world shuns
Who suffer spite and shame

And we know solitude
Like a dear old friend
Without a parachute
We fell to meet our end

But maybe you and I
Could plummet hand in hand
And find some way to fly
Yes, maybe even land

Reflecting HeartsOur smiles reflected
In each other's eyes.
And our heart's danced
In each other's gaze.

Yours was the smile
That made me laugh.
Yours, the laugh
At which I hid my blush

What was it you were asking
In each glance at me?
What were your eyes wanting
Each time they questioned me?

Could it have been
The right time?
Could you have been
The right one?

But before it had even started
You had walked away.
Before it had even begun
I felt it slip away.

Because your heart was empty
When mine was full.
Your heart was miles away
When mine lay at your door.

QuestionsP-
"Do I disappoint you?
Yes you, don't ask me who!"
F-
"Your not the man you thought you'd be
and for that your Pride has taken heavy fee"
P-
"So your Answer is Yes?
A true relief I must confess"
F-
"Thought it did not go as planned
I am grateful for the man I stand."
P-
"What? how can this be so?
I truly got to know!'
F-
"You see the one who hurt us most,
spent her whole life on coast"
P-
"So she did nothing with her life,
I'd rather have known she was my wife"
F-
"She left us all alone,
until a King we had grown"
P-
"And did she Finally want us back?
or does this story's point do lack?"
F-
"She wanted everything she threw away,
But we just smiled and floated down the Bay"

ExpectationsHe wasn't what you thought he'd be.
Sometimes the looks are all you see.
Your expectations soared up high.
And now to him you feel a tie.

Your heart at times, turns the other way.
Your pains, you wish, would go away.
You want to tell him, yet don't know what to say.
You feel it's a game that you don't want to play.

To get away would be a pleasure.
The extent of your problems, you cannot measure.
Whoever said that love is pain.
Today my respect has truly gained.

The First LetterAs I read your letter I held my breath
Every word pulled my heart from my chest
I can't wait until you read what I wrote
This might be cheesy but you float my boat
Filling me up with much needed happiness
I know at Boot Camp you'll do your best
Here I'll stay until you come for me
I believe in out love, Baby
So do your sit ups and your crunches
While all of us here miss you bunches

To My SweetheartOnce upon a time,
In a land not so far away,
there was a teenaged girl
wondering if she should stay.

She faked a smile each morning
and no one seemed to see,
that within that happy façade
she held such misery.

Until the day she met someone
who changed her mind for good;
though how that person found her,
she never understood.

Each day they talked for hours
and that happy feeling grew
until the day they finally met,
and her heart jumped high and flew.

She wanted so much to hold your hand,
to hug you tight and say
the happy things you made her feel
most every given day.

But she bit her lip each passing hour,
held her breath and hoped

One touchOne touch,
My world does spin.
So much,
In a simple grin.

Your touch takes me higher,
Building a blazing fire.
The moment our lips meet,
I can feel your loves heat.
The way you smile at me,
Sets my very soul free.

My love for you,
Is simple and true.
My need for you,
Is desperate and true.

The Flame of the Cold WarThe evil of our past fire
Led to possibly our last desire.
It’s ironic that the heat of our passion
Led to war in the coldest fashion.

The Man of Winter built this wall
One strong enough to never fall.
You on side and me on the other
Dear God, I miss you, brother.

I wish to climb
Climb
Climb
But thorns line the border
I hope they dull and coat with grime
As we get older

Now I wish to run
Run
Run
Until the cracked wall give way to sun

And I hope cement turns to glass
So that I can see that you’re okay.
And I wish to gaze into your eyes
Forever, on a never-ending day

But as I watch and a tear falls down my cheek,
I press my ha

Lyrical Deja vuSing me something new;
When everything is hard to bear
Sing a song that’ll surely last
Inaudible words fall upon deaf ears
Life trickles through a silent hourglass

Sing a song of sweetened hue;
Spin a tale that breaks the cast
A tasteful tune not heard before.
That does not revive the past

A song of colours red through blue;
Though life is hard and love is war
Unlike the strain of honeyed throats
A choir should be fresh and raw

Perhaps you have sung a song too few;
Avoid clichés, Shakespearean quotes
Tell me how you really feel
Something marvelled at by most

It’s well and truly overdue;
Rough waves or sweet birdsong
If the melody is strong, clear
This time I’ll sing along
Sing me something new.

Blue EyesBeyond the glass,
through the seas of blue,
everything seems of second class,
but that's not what I see in you.

Gazing in through the windows, it seems alright.
It feels like we are flying away,
yet somehow the wind catches you mid-flight.
So be aware, this may not be the brightest day.

When the clouds begin to form,
and the light begins to fade,
rescue us from the storm,
but don't you dare pull down the shades.

Soon the sky shall clear,
and the rain will come to an end.
The stars will appear,
and your gleaming potential will unbend.

Beyond the glass,
through the seas of blue,
everything seems of second class,
but that's not what I see i

for u...for u i would burn the ocean
for u i would paint the sky green
for u i would drink bitter potion
for u i would plant the tallest tree
for u i would ride the unicorn
for u i would catch the mermaid
for u i migh have my heart torn
for ur love i have prayed
...i love u

Under Aged and Over MindedHe tortures me.

His look,

His grin.

The things he says that make me laugh within.

So unattainable,

The difference of years.

I'm so imperfect,
Myself my fear.

So young in flesh, but aged in mind.

All I do is wait,
Through this endless span of time.

Until it happens.

That I'm alive.

When I'll gain my final prize.

A StrangerI have no idea who I live with any more. I don't know what I've been doing wrong, why I can't make her happy.

I try so hard.

But now I don't tell her anything, she doesn't deserve it.

I tried, but she didn't want to listen.

Just tell me who I am or how I feel and exactly what I'm thinking or that I'm manipulative and spiteful and that I just want to hate her.

IT'S NOT TRUE!!!

I only want to make her happy. I only want to be a good girl. She makes me want to do things I really don't.

She blames me for so much, things I didn't do, tells me I've lied. I can't take it. She demands an answer. I don't know it. She screams that I do. How?

So

DumberI think she prefers your meaningless words
And when you whisper "I love you"
You mean you love how easy this is

She's just a little thing
Means nothing when you leave
That you'd tap any dirty girl
That walked down the street
Just put up you words
Like a cloaking machine

You're dumber than I thought
'Cause you think you won't get caught
You think you've got it made
The way you play your games

WAKE UP!

Your life's about to break up!
I will not stand near you
'Cause I don't want to hear you

I see you face right now
So speculative, dear
"How could this happen?
My plan was fool-proof"
Let me make it clear
It was made by a fool
It won't ge

There, There.There's so much truth in fear.
There's so much hate in blame.
There's so much heat in tears.
There's so much ache in pain.

There is no privacy,
There is no respect,
There is no love for me,
There is nothing left.

What is there in trust?
What is there in life?
What is there but dust?
What is there but strife?

Falsified CareI'm braced to a chair
Tied to your disrepair
You were stone silent,
You could not yelp
They just looked, didn't help

They didn't love her
They let her suffer
She's on her way out, anyhow

They didn't know her name
Or the place where she came
And she's gone now

Falsified care
They left her scared
What could I do?

Except miss you

Left my summer behind
I'd never leave your side
Their time was too precious
But directly so noble
Now that you're breathless

They didn't love her
They let her suffer
She's on her way out, anyhow

They didn't know her name
Or the place where she came
And she's gone now

Falsified care
They left her scared
What co

Old FriendI can come to you when I'm afraid,
Of feelings of fear that choke and chafe.

To you all my secrets I have told,
For there I know they are safe.

I lean on you and drop down my tears.
I tell you my worries, because you'll always hear.

Wiser than man and old as time,
I listen to you because silence can be the best advice sometimes.

Strong and sturdy, gentle and nice,
I thank your trunk and your leaves a thousand times twice.

Alone and Waiting

No one sees me,
The way I am.

No one loves me,
Or holds my hand.

I'm all alone,
I guess it's true.

It's only me,
There is no you.

I hope you're coming.
And if you are,

I wish it's soon,
That you're not far.
