colors

When did the colors you say you saw
dissolve as if struck by an atom bomb?
I hope to withhold such explosions if I'm able to.
I see every wave on the spectrum when I'm around you.
My colors decay at the end of a day without you.
And I can't survive this nightmarish gray without you.
You deserve colors.
You live in color.
I'm living for you.

precipitation

I know my cloud might cause you to complain
I'm ruining your sunny day again.
I pray that you might find some patience
and see the seeds you've sown start growing.
I'll be sure to go away,
but I'll return some day.
Will you be ready for me then?
Or am I spending all my time on pure distraction?
I'm patiently precipitating.
Anticipate and wait to be let in.
If everything is everything,
then I'll wish for some more of nothing.
I'll be sure to go away,
but I'll return some day.
Will you be ready for me then?
Or am I wasting all my time on pure distraction?
I'm not sure you understand
that this is bound to happen once again,
so let me help you while I can.

forever

I'll love you always
as long as skies and stars
trade places.
That means forever;
forever I'll love you always.
If I tried to count the ways
I'd each inch of space
between here and the moon
because how much I love you.
I'll love you always
until the earth decays
and days end.
That means forever;
forever I'll love you always.
I could try to explain;
I'd repeat each refrain
until my cheeks turn blue
because that's how much I love you.
And I hope you love me too.
I hope you love me too.

sunshine

This is the moment we rehearsed
when I woke up and you kept sleeping.
You dreamed of sunshine on our shoulders.
I found the kitchen and poured myself
some water listening to heartstrings beating,
counting sheep, and wishing I could sleep like you.
But I can't sleep
because all my dreams
always wind up in disaster.
So stay with me
I'll wake up wishing
that my sunshine
was something I could master.

Little candle, I know that you'll burn out pretty soon,
but for now I'm thankful. For now I'm watching you
as you do what you do, as you light up my room.
Little candle, I'm a little in love with you.
I don't know your motivation;
my votive, for you I'll be patient.
The little time we have
I'll share with you.
Because time will take you soon.
Your oxygen, assumed.
Little candle, I'll probably replace you.
