What’s Yours
Treasure from the sea You seem to be haunting me Always claiming back what is yours Leading me to your shores. The tides that pushes me within As our memories come crashing in.

Miss You
I miss the phone calls I use to get I miss your voice on the other end I slowly feel your memories slipping away I really do hope it doesn’t happen today. I miss the advice you use to give I thought I head your laugh the other day Picture of you is all I…

Beside you all along
I watch you from afar you have no idea I’m there at all. You fight to get through your day Not knowing I’m whispering it will be okay. Your smile fades when life hits you I try to direct you to a new point of view. You take too much on Against my better judgment…

Quicksand
The more I fight The deeper I fall It’s hard to be idled for too long No need to escape When I dug this hole. It’s like the more I climb out I keep adding below. So, what to do when the cycle repeats Each step I take, Feels like it’s turned against me. But…
