Hold on to the people in your life The ones who give you space to exist in theirs You get to be part of a myriad of tales And you live through a hundred different stories Some of yours, some of theirs

Stillness
The hours rush by And day turns to night And night turns into day And we exist In a muddle of crowds, aspirations and emotions Craving for a change For time to still For the day to dawn For the storms to pass by

These nights, these nights, these hazy nights Eyes wide open, mind unclear These days, these days, these days Things just dont feel right Eyes wide open, heart unsure I’ve been here before, I can’t say I dont know I’ve walked down these roads before, sat through the same show I know how it all ends,Continue reading “These Nights”
