a mermaid found a swimming lad, picked him for her own, pressed her body to his body, laughed; and plunging down. forgot in cruel happiness, that even lovers drown.

"love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. if you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. but in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. it will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. to love is to be vulnerable." - C.S. Lewis

kiss me darling, its been a long time.

seeing you, never has gotten me so nervous. its probably your blue eyes that are causing this and the way you walk with your hands tuck so tightly into your jean pockets. the way you raise your eyebrows when you don't know what to say or do. you always seem to shrug without thinking, drag your feet and speak so softly - that no one can hear. and i know time has passed, your heart has changed. now somehow these memories sing to me. its been few years since we've been and i wonder how you have changed. if you ever will recognized my face at all? my stampeding heart feels lost, like the compass you always were - in the thoughts of you that are. that you were my way home. there's no barely room for us. these years have crumbled me and i know its to late. your eyes have been my guide, they light my northern skies. and now you are miles away from me - even though you are right in front of me.

throughout life you will meet one person who is unlike any other. you could talk to this person for hours and never get bored, you could tell them things and they wont judge you. this person is your soul mate, your best friend. dont ever let them go.

somewhere

I know you are out there somewhere
and i know you are well
looking for an answer
but only time can tell

all things being equal i rather not forget
the people ive met
but something down inside me knows there's
something more
and i may not have any truth
but i feel it in my heart

woke up lost
a world i cannot escape
what I've become slowly takes shape
and i can never get enough, until i find you

cause i know you are out there
somewhere

we brought out summer in the night time

deep into the forest we get lost

whistle to the birds as they call

go on trips, move with the water as it shifts

we move to the sea as it drifts

how long will it drip

i'll follow you to the end of the world

and you know its true

because ive got you

to my faded truck

a shot of country to find our luck

and you sit inside and scream and shout

like a dagger in the heart

we rip it out

in the cold night we drive along the suns fireside

and through the night, the lights,  we listen to each others pain
