In Blue Skies

For someone very important to me, that I care deeply for. //Quand il est foncé, les hommes voient des étoiles

Hope gives us power, to see the world in a different light,
The strength to stand, when the thought of impossibility is consuming,
When it rains to the point of never seeing the sun,
It gives me reason to wake up in the morning,
Such is the gift of hope.
//
And if hope could turn a man's life around,
It would be the greatest gift that someone can receive
But if all I ever learned was a lie
It was an illusion of everyday-life
Then I turn to you for comfort
Even then...
//
If hope was that light that came from Pandora's Box
Then you are a star to me
That shines above the heavens
And when I can't see you, I know that you are there,
In blue skies.

If Only.

It's been a while since I updated, but there have been plenty of things to write about since my last entry.

When thoughts plague the mind
When dreams fill your head
When feelings corner your heart and escape into the soul
I find you.
//
If I could let you see yourself in my eyes
If the stars could be given to you
If time stopped and darkness engulfed the earth
I would look for your light
If only.
//
Time accelerates, slows, and stops
The fire doesn't burn
And the wind never blew
If only I never witnessed the dream
Then my obsession would have ended.
A hurt to prevent a hurt
But to love and never regret is a hurt worth hurting.

-Milton
