Seventeen Eighteen
I’m closer to 18
then I am to 8
Still
I find myself reenacting
the child I once was
Can I get it all back?
embroid it in
my skin
like a tattoo
after all
I’m almost 18
Through Words
And when you spoke
through your smoke
I almost believed your mouth filled with lies
spewing out like flies
“You are just as beautiful as I remembered”
Moments
Live thoroughly in these moments
as if you never knew how
beautiful life was
Taken from the sun
we lie within none
This is the recipe for life
everything works out
Smile
The softest of words
meant the most
when they came from
your mouth
I was lost
but
found myself in
your smile
the smile that brought
a feeling
a feeling like no other
Beautiful Boy
How can you get away with
the things you do
My beautiful boy
would never
The directions that were supposed to guide you
were wrong
almost compared to how
you strung me along
You played me like a guitar
so gently but wrong
Sin ti
cómo quisiera estar
del lado de ti
sin demostrar
cuánto me duele
como se no
tendréis ojos
no me ves
sé que quisieras
estar aquí
pero sin ti
no te puedo extrañar
pero
cómo quisiera estar
de lado de ti
