Thoughts From A Cloud

My home is in the clouds
Where forever I wish to lay

With naughty thoughts of you
and days never grey;
With longings for eyes so blue
and wiry hands that play.

I wish I could stay in the clouds
With your long bones over mine

Where your lashes tickle my neck
and my thoughts are covered in sunshine;
While I count the dots on your back
and you say all will be just fine.

But soon I lose the happiest joy I ever found.

There's a cry I hear distant and loud.

Strings pull me back to the ground

into the abyss of life without a cloud.

-


My soul is a scream
My letter unwritten

They’re hanging off corners
They’re frozen stone white

They do not want to harm
Whoever put them there

Put my heart on a string
And tied it to your leg

My body is here
My tears are with you

The pain that I caused
Is my cross to bear

My stone cold air
Is the weight on my chest

For all the times I let you down
For all the times you cried

For every time you hated me
And each time you felt unloved

You never were
And never will be

My air is a prison
Your love cannot break

So I carry the chain
With you far away.

If.

My love, my soul 
There will come a time
A day, a minute, an arrow
Which will pierce through this lifetime of mine
Making me happy and cutting me in half
My bones, my veins
All I want for you is joy
The moment to last eternally.


May she love you at least half as much as I do
May she love you at least as much as I do
May she love you at least a 100 times more than I do
May God not make me the only one for you.


And if she was to reject the blood of your blood
My blood I will transfer, my life I will lend you
It's on a plate for you to take
It's on my sleeve for you to grab


It's like all those times I said I loved you.
It's set in stone, it's what cells are made of.
It's like the twinkle in your eye and the tear in mine. 
It's never fading, it's tied across the sky.


So if love defies you
You know which heart to turn to
My soul, my love
If there ever comes a time.
