sparked

baby we were born with fire and gold in our eyes
i dreamed about those eyes every night for 3 years straight
but it turns out i always loved you for your mind.

so lets write love with sparklers
lets run through mud and let is seep between our toes
lets break our hearts in the most beautiful way possible.
lets laugh until our tears are only made of water
and broken hearts are only a rumor

the moments that take my breath away are second to
the moments you taught me how to breath.
lets stay here lets stay here

your kiss was fire to my soul
i lost my soul in the fire
and i've always fantasized about burning bridges
please don't ever let me go

hats

Has
Anyone
Truly
Stopped

Having
All
Those
Selfish

Heartaches
And
Thoughts?
Specifically

Hundreds
And
Thousands of
Seconds

Hating
All
Those
Stabbing

Hell-like
Aggravations.
Thanks and please
Stop.

We all have a lot of hats don't we?

salt

sweat fills my palms and tears cloud my sight.
the rain drops on my windshield are identical to the 
salt water that soaks my sweatshirt sleeve.
you intoxicate my every thought.
my heart beats uncontrollably 
every.
single.
time.
i hear your name.

we hear the music in our hearts 

and sometimes i forget how to breathe.

i find myself in you and lose it all at once.
they say drugs are bad 
but so are kisses from boys who don't love you.

Why is it so hard to say?
there's more salt in my veins than the entire ocean 
you are exactly the poem i craved to write 

but i refuse to search through trash in hopes of finding a diamond.

We're all sensitive people
With so much to give (Lets Get it On- Marvin Gaye)

Times are good or bad, happy or sad

Do we have to die for the fifty more?"

Askin' nothin'
Leave me be (Highway to Hell- AC/DC)

Her heart's been broken just like you have 

(Young Americans- David Bowie)

If you see us coming I think it's best
To move away do you hear what I say
From under my breath (Jailbreak- Thin Lizzy)

So good somethin' like sanctified
Oh dear, baby,
Nothing wrong with love

So sue me if I go 2 fast
But life is just a party, and parties weren't meant 2 last 

(1999- Prince)

Oh dear, can't you see? It's them it's not me
We're not enemies; We just disagree 

(Is This It- The Strokes)
 

We all disagree
I think we should disagree, yeah
Can't you see I'm trying? (Is This It- The Strokes)

My Side 1 Track 1 consists of the lyrics from the greatest albums of all time and their first song.  If I could be 2% of what these people wrote, maybe I’ll write something worth reading.  We were all sent here to be broken, but these shattered pieces of our existence don’t have to be the mess they told us it would be.
