Every Second Is a Kiss

For every raindrop
Is a kiss to you.
For every flower
In the spring that blooms.
For every hour
I never spend with you,
Every second is a kiss to you.

For every star in
The night time sky,
For every tear
That falls from my eyes.
For every waking moment
That I'm alive,
Every second is a kiss to you.

And Still He Loves Me

I'm jealous of how we used to be,
How sweet and innocent you spoke to me.
The way you told me how you felt everyday,
How gently you'd say my name.
I miss the "us" that we were,
The young love that we were.
The innocence in what we would say,
The small gentle kiss we would sneak in.
The endless hugs we'd sink in.
You'd look me in the eyes and smile,
You never even looked down at my body.
You saw me, just me. Only me.
You loved me,
And my heart melted into yours.
You felt my soul and made it soar.
I never knew how long this would last,
But I'm so happy this hasn't passed.

You still love me, even until this day.
Although it's not the same.
I see the difference in the way you smile.
The way you laugh and hold me down.
The difference in the way say my name,
The way you tell me that you'd never love again.
I see it now, how innocent we were then.
We have been through so much together,
So much like always and forever.
I told you that one day and
You said you'd never forget.
It's true, you never did.
You still love me just like we promised.

I might be jealous of how we used to be,
But still to this day your love runs over me.
You're my bestfriend that keeps me in love,
Your my everything that I'd never give up.

Pumpkins

I'm leaping through pumpkin isles,
I look back and I see you smile.
You tell me that I look like a baby deer.
I turn around and go back to you,
I start playfully punching you,
And you pretend that I've broken you.

You take me by the hand,
And you show me a pumpkin I might like.
I smile and I see you feel satisfied.
You tell me that it was nothing but that you tried,
And I hug you with all my might
And you pretend that I've broken you.

Boy, I'm as little as anyone could be.
Why do you keep teasing me?
But anyways I keep on smiling.
I poke you around your chest,
Wondering if you've got pecks,
Then you pretend that I've broken you!

Again I say, boy, I'm not that strong.
I'm as little as the town I'm from.
Then you see my face
And grab me around my waist.

He tickles me every where!
I think the words, but I do not swear.
I'm laughing until my ribs really hurt.
I tell him, boy, I think you've broken me,
I can't seem to get back on my feet,
C'mon, I'm as little as anyone could be.

Then you sit up right,
Look me in the eyes,
And you take my hand so gently.
Here I am, looking you in the eyes,
You don't understand how much
My butterflies rise.

He says, "Girl, you've broken me,
Why can't we just already be?
I'm here waiting for you to be mine.
I see your eyes are beautiful,
Take my hand, you're something more...
Then just a friend.
Girl, I'm broken...
For you."

Blocked

There is really less to say,
I've written what I've had on my plate.
Writing was a filter for all my love.
But everything's already lifted into the sky above.

It's not that I've lost my love,
It's not that I can't write.
It's thinking of more things to say,
And saying it right.

I've been strewn down
Because of not knowing
What else to express.
I'm feeling empty and burdened,
Speechless and compressed.

Writer's block.
That's what this is.
Not knowing what to write,
Not knowing what else to express.
Speechless and compressed.

Don't Shoot Me Down

Cuz I will fall,
I'm not the master of it all.
Here I am with all my love,
But you don't understand it's true.
All that I am is here for you,
Nothing about anybody else is real.
I keep telling you what I feel,
And it's like you don't believe me.
I'm not bulletproof,
I've got you to lose,
And I never want that to happen.
I love you, and that's the truth.
Just believe in my words,
Let my heart be heard.

Wrapped In Love

I'm wrapped in your arms tonight,
Beneath these star-studded skies I'm all right.
We're perfect where we are,
We don't need no fancy car.
We stay in eachother's arms all night.
I love the way you kiss my cheek,
As if everything in this world is at our feet.
You never disappoint my beaming heart,
You never step back and break me apart.
You love me and you care for me,
That's the reason why I'm always happy.
I'm always happy because of you,
That's why I know that all of this love is true.

You wrap me in your arms all night long,
I knew we'd never get this true love wrong.

Battle Scars

Battling unearthed wars is demanding.
Step inside my mind, see where I'm standing.
Believe in my instinct just once,
Understand where I'm coming from.
Take a shot for me as I would for you.
But those are things you can't do,
You won't do.

Be still in my presence.
Watch my eyes, see them break,
See them cry.
Look beyond my flesh,
Be there to catch my breath.
Hold my hand before I fall.
See this heart go through it all.

Battle through my broken smiles.
Break into my heart,
Tear me apart,
And fix me all over again.
Understand this place I'm coming from.
Patch my wounds just enough.
Feel my mind racing up mountains.
Observe my heart through rising actions.

I'm not saying that I'm at war.
Just scent my thoughts, feelings, worries.
Believe in my love, my choice of words.
Hold my heart closer to yours.
Resharpen tormented swords,
And bask in present glory.
