this thing in my chest, it won't stop...

my heart just keeps beating
even when i think it should give up already
it finds new ways to surprise me
tissues and issues: the perfect couple
oh so intricate, oh so envious
saying "i want you" doesn't mean i need you
but sometimes it comes close
losing my mind at night now
can't sleep unless the tv's on
why can't we let it be?
every time i see you, i remember
it's salt in the wound
thinking of how much i want to hate you
but i never will.

the city is at war

rain vs sunlight
the only difference is in the way you see the sky.
with the sun it's right there.
with rain, you have to look beyond, know and have faith that all the stars, planets, infinite space is still there. you just can't see it.
afternoons bleed into nights so fast
i can't keep up
need you want you miss you
'sympathy' is a four letter word.
