Old Soul

Old eyes
Mirrored back at me
Feelings that are not mine
Rise up in their depths
A life I never knew
A story never told
Something feels wrong
What am I missing?
I can do nothing but stare into my reflection
Those soulful eyes
They haunt me

Boulevard

I never knew that it would go this far. Closing all the shop windows, rolling up the awnings. The wide street barren and waiting for the on-coming storm. The city thrumming with anticipation, As we step out into the coming darkness, and the street lamps blink on.

Darkn3ss

Reaching out for you only to find a pillow filled with tears. Where have you gone? Silences fill the room as I breathe in. I close my eyes and see the darkness its coming over me. The moon hides itself in fear And the sun pushes through. I open my eyes. I see nothing. I feel nothing. How much longer do I have? til I break down things here aren't right I can't take the fight…. I feel lost and the only thing that brings me back is the hint of a smile in your voice. Makes me remember what Im here for. I live for you, I cry for you and I would die for you. All in one day.... if I could just be with you. As night falls b

I always felt like there was someone before me. Someone I was meant to know. People have told me i have an old soul and i finally understand what they meant.
