I've Written You

Every Letter I Never Sent #TheMetropolisKid

Figure Your Heart Out

Most people never really get to find the love that their hearts deserve.

They settle for what they have, never looking farther than what their eyes can see.

Because not taking a risk means not getting hurt, not getting hurt means not getting let down, and not getting let down means we’ll at least in the mean time, be a happy.

But is that what you really want for your heart?

Don’t you want to find the love of your life? Your soulmate, the last missing piece of the puzzle, that which will let the fire in your eyes burn and the passion in your heart raze every doubt you’ve ever had? Don’t you want to find out what’s beyond?

So find your love, the way only you can find it. Find what makes your heart happy.

Shutter Speed

Your head on my shoulder, who knew that those things fit so well together.

Here I am pulling my lips away from your neck because your mouth is a better place to be

And it’ll leave a taste within me that I know I won’t find anywhere else, and that’s the only thing I know thats keeping me alive

To taste, to journey, to work to the point that my hopes are in front of me and my dreams are reality

I will find you

Love will find us

[writtenyou]

Lifeblood

And if one day my mind decides that there is no more room for you to be in it

My heart will grow leaps and bounds beyond its limit

Because I have longed for every single second of time to be spent with you

I’ve let our thoughts wander into one another as if you were the only air my lungs would ever breathe

I’ve needed you before I even knew you were the only thing that would keep me going

So seep into my being, claim my bones, infiltrate my organs, conquer me the way that only you can

Because there will never be an action more important than to give all my love to you

[writtenyou]

Dying Light

And every single star that the night sky allows you to behold

Is every single hope that has burned out from long ago

How tragic this beauty that we are all allowed to see

Every time we look up we see a dream extinguished ages past

And that light in your eyes, the starlight that dazzles

How much will you give to make sure that it doesn’t get stamped out?

Everything

[writtenyou]

Signal

And ever since the skies turned dark, time has been slow

I’ve been waiting, I guess for a heart that I will know

And you finally arrive in your righteous glow

The light you give off that beckons me to go

And so I shine bright as the sun goes low

Your being will finally overflow

Because my soul loves it so

[writtenyou]

Story Time

So grab my hand, and hold it tight

And let me tell you about all these distant stars crying out to the pale moonlight

Of how they whisper about love to the night sky in the hopes of finally feeling

Let me tell you of the dripping dew drops on the petals of the brightest red rose

Of how the rainbow creeps along its colors and makes love to the clouds

And when I’m done you can tell me about you and me

About us

About anything and everything

Or you could say nothing at all

And I will smile and laugh at all that you have to say

And wonder about all that you kept secret

[writtenyou]

Nowhere

Night Sky

Clear View

Hood of my car

Me and you

Stars above

Light the way

My hands

Your face

Warm touch

Cold breath

Love preserved

A kiss

Then two

Three more

God, I love you

Slow embrace

Rising sun

Stay

[writtenyou]

Permanence

I want you to leave something on my body that I will always remember you by.

Give my soul a tattoo, one that only you can give.

Etch within me a love that no one else will ever experience.

Scar me, scar me deep enough that I won’t ever heal

Let me remember you for the rest of my days

[writtenyou]

The Two Person Table In The Corner

As our coffee mugs let out a thin veil of steam

As the music plays a subtle beat of romance

As the sun shines true through the tinted window glass

As the books make the crisp sounds of pages being flipped

As you sit there in the most beautiful of ways

I will lean over this tiny table and I will kiss you

[writtenyou]

Random Thoughts #2

I remember writing a thesis before about how cyber bullying was one of the worst things a person could endure.

I get it you know, you have all this power over your twitter, facebook, and instagram and you can do whatever you want but do you ever stop to think how much you can hurt a person psychologically because of all the bullshit that you think is funny?

That kind of thing has got to stop because there is a thin line between funny and plain old mean. People who laugh at other people when they say “Kill yourself” to someone else, you need help. I mean has the whole world been so desensitized to the point that all of that is acceptable in our society nowadays?

Don’t be that way, you have the opportunity to be better because if you can be that bad as a person, that also means you can be that good. You can make a difference in such small ways that they will change the bigger picture. Everyone just needs to believe it can happen, strive for the good.

*I obviously watched unfriended haha*

Radio Frequency

The static breaks apart messages that were once so clear at the start

[writtenyou]

Folded

A stuffed closet is what your heart is, no room for anything else really but you squeeze in every piece that you can.

Like a puzzle of sorts you wonder where does this go, and what happens if you place that here.

And when its so full, when its overflowing and you can’t shut the doors, you ask...do I really need all of this in here?

And that is when they fling open, everything you so neatly placed and put into position. An explosion of sorts.

Then you pick up all the pieces, and you find something new and you wonder to yourself again.

Now what do I do with you??

If you got a good heart don’t let the bleak world take it from you

[writtenyou]

Mantle

I’d like to think that people have a shred of good in them

That they aren’t innately bad

That they don’t have to struggle with urges and temptation

I’d like to think that people want to look out for one another

That they want others to be happy

To find happiness

And no matter how hard the world gets

No matter how dark the world becomes

I will always keep that light within me

And if the world decides its time to hurt me

If the people around take their masks off finally

Then sweet soil, thank you for catching me

I didn’t expect the ground to be soft anyway

But I’ll get up, and I’ll believe in you

Again, again, again, over and over again

Because one of these days, you’ll need someone to believe in you

[writtenyou]

He Said, She Said

If all you knew about were just all the things you’ve heard from someone else, then do you really know anything at all?

Blade

The first cut is the deepest, after that everything else just seems petty. You get used to it
