Mystery man

I didnt see you at first
But you left me clues
The puzzle isnt complete
The pieces left are only a few

Just when i think ive discovered you
You stay within the shadows
Maybe you're not meant for me to see
But I'm hoping that's not how it'll always be

I imagine our first embrace
Through your chest
I'll feel your heart race
Loves doubts will be put to rest

That's all in my imagination,
Happy beginnings of my creation

Do I say goodbye,
When we haven't even said hello?
I know who you are, mystery man
You're only a mystery to yourself....

Its not you... Its ME

Im sad when im not wanted
But did i even want to be wanted?
What is it im seeking
If im disappointed its not me he's seeking
Am i shallow for depth?
Or too ready to believe in my feet gettin swept?
It shouldnt hurt this bad
If it wasnt anything great
So im reevaluating my hearts fate
And making corrections
To avoid anymore painful rejections

In a moment

Heart racing
Mind spinnin
Risk taking
Anxiety ridden

Thoughts screamin
Worries creepin
Plan schemin
Feelings keepin

Words disappearing
Scared dreaming
Love sharing
Soul bearing

On the other side...

Around the corner lies heartache,
A lost loved one,
And the pain from lifes disappointments.

At times I have...
Looked down and recognized defeat
Looked up to face failure
Looked around sensing doubt

But I can never forget
That on the other side...

I've experienced true love,
The birth of hope,
And enough happiness to revive my soul.

So I will continue to...
Look down with determination,
Look up and persevere,
Look around witnessing love

Derived Distance

Ive come to the conclusion
Your presence causes confusion
So I created the distance
Derived from your existence

If I can't have you all
I'll let this ship sail off
Cause FriendSHIP
Or RelationSHIP
this journey aint my trip

Im just being real...
This aint our true deal
But I need the space
To pretend its you I can replace.

NYC

So when I said I miss NYC,
& I wore my I <3 NY shirt.
I was really saying I miss you
but nobody had a clue.

I was afraid to walk the streets we did,
cross the bridges we traveled,
take in the views our eyes saw,
and feel the things we felt together.

But I made it to the city!
& the thought of you...
Didn't leave me on the subway
in a state of pity.
