may still die
I looked often from my window
Wishing to fly
Yet descending I would go

That was a time ago
You taught me better than to try and dive
And now I know
I've all this time been more than alive

Because upon meeting you, the sea opened, large and blue
My blind future unraveled
I could never not love you, honest and true
Across any country I would travel

The lottery I did not think to win
Has me winning with you, again and again

I hit record
You smile and shake your head
For a second we afford
A video to share, instead

I keep to save
Filed away not so deep
To view innate
Something special I keep

The button is no longer held
Your laugh still emanates
And for you I pray good health
Our love still permeates

I know what yesterday's bring
As do you
For, the dream of tomorrow is our thing
So I call out to you

Syllables override and I try not to hide
I remain open and loving
Even under clouded skies,
I dream of the best things with you still coming

And I know it's true
I can't stop repeating that "I love you"

Journeys through density
Staring at the night skies with you
Ventures in liquidity
Sailing out beyond the blue

The boat
Out amongst the stars
Our hope
A highway without cars

And you and I, young and sweet
In love and fighting to keep
Never dies, lovingly complete
An easy battle for you and me

I'll write and speak
'Of your immaculate beauty
Your grace upon my cheek
Through and moody

I kid and you laugh
A smile too perfect to recall
I'll join you in every Sunday mass
A heart for which it was easy to fall

Aftereffects of a car long driven by
Haunted by the remnants of life
'The desert at night
A lone standing sign, it reads joyously
"45 Miles till the city of Sandy"
And day to night
September to May
It reads the same **** thing
And that's all it'll ever say

I awoke to dawn under auburn skies
Colour was gone
The feeling of place all wrong
Moved to a space outward and down
And all the sun clouds in my head, they made up for the storm clouds calling me dread

Hallowed Eves and pale morning skies bestow the greatest blessing  
A beautiful girl who has the gift for which many sift
One day that very girl would come to feed my growing flames
She hugged me with those deep brown eyes and told me her name
After that, nothing was ever the same

Just for a few seconds
My minute was bright
Just for a few seconds
I could feel the power of flight
And for those seconds I invested the will to fight

Moving out
I was scared
All the sounds echoing in my head
There was a limp on the way out
Bought the leg the very next day

I was sold in fifteen seconds
Bought you all
With the sale of me
All I could see, couldn't afford all the things you said
Sold the lights downtown, rid the poisons in my head
For the prize of living with you
I returned from the dead

I saw that light, just for fifteen seconds
Now I can afford to love you without dread
Come one they would say,
And You did,
You saved myself

Far from now
Time still unfolds the same
Yet, the pieces have changed
None of us remain unchanged
Done now are the impacts upon tomorrow
Today, a penny for the bank of the future
Building towards an eventual purchase

I save and wait, thinking of the day
The day I can spend it all on you
Worth every second, every dollar and cent
Time spent with you is time best spent
And to leave the allegories and metaphors,
I cannot let go of the love, the love that encapsulates my prayers, hopes and dreams
There's not a thing around me that is worth hurting the someday I have with you
