This Is A Call

How to speak the words out loud
That have been in silence for so long.
Four years have passed,
And nothing has changed.
In my mind,
I’ve screamed from mountain tops
How much you mean to me.
I’ve told you how I want
To spend the rest of my life with you
To protect you
To love you.
It’s so much different
To say it straight out
I’m not even a second thought
In your head
We’re the good friends,
But that’s all you’ve ever considered.
You chase all the others,
But you forget about me
Every time in the process.
You’re not the best one for me,
But you’re all I want.
I’m not the best you could ever have,
But I guarantee I love you the most.
I want to be the one your with,
To hold your hand
To be at your side,
During ever success,
Every failure,
Every trial.
Give me the chance.

Far Away

Something’s wrong with this picture.
The lines are fading,
Colors are turning gray,
Definitions losing their meaning.
I’m holding it
Looking for the hidden meaning
That piece that was forgotten.
Brilliance is forgotten,
The vibrant colors are long gone.
Closing my eyes,
I can still picture your face
As you handed me this picture.
You gave it to me,
Telling me to never forget you.
I haven’t forgotten,
I’ve kept my promise.
Two years later, and I’m still waiting.
Your eyes are stones in this picture,
They couldn’t capture the softness,
The love,
The life.
The prayers never cease,
I count every moment
Waiting for your next call.
Return to me safely,
I need to in my arms
More than I can describe.
