| I don't feel itI don't feel it
I like or love you, it's true
I think it or I say, pretty much everyday
My mind, yes but missing a part, my heart
Is this real, if so, where is, how I feel
I care, missing you when you're not there
Is it your presence, simply the essence
Sharing the same air, when you're there
When not around, it's still ground
Seeds in the field, yet nothing will yield
Ripples in a pond end, no matter how far they extend
This “love†is how deep, unknowing makes me weep
Is there an answer to find, it's just all in my mind
Running around to say, I just don't feel a way
A way I should, not doing so, not so good
Like it's there but not at all, I'm chasing a waterfall
Doubt will reign, I need rain, only real with pain
Isn't it suppose to tear me apart, melt my heart
Where's the agony, the hard hits with no apology
It's not this easy right?, Should be a burning light
Bruises and scars you get, yet I don't feel it

       | Torturing my SoulSitting here contemplating
So much it's aggravating
Where's my love? I'm tired of waiting
Too many paths, I start debating
Choices are laying before me
Stretching further than eyes see
How ever far I can't even hitchhike
It all feels wrong it seems like
Whichever you choose
You'll most likely lose
Don't mind him, jump, try to fly
You'll sore or be sore, can't hurt to try
Well I guess I can't be picky
Things may be tricky
If I never step, I'll never know
Letting myself take a chance and go
This one here has the least invested
Start from scratch, nothing tested
The waters couldn't be clearer
Issue being how do I get near her
Not a problem physically
More so just emotionally
How do you approach love to a stranger
That may end up as emotional danger
Well that one may not be right
You're going in without sight
What's life without taking a risk
Search her soul, why hesitate, stop and frisk
Maybe you're right, I still don't know
All of my fears, I...

       | SnowPart of me is tired of the heat year round
Dreaming of the first time i saw snow hit the ground
All my life I've dealt with warm weather
Maybe a change of climate would be better
It could be more enjoyable than the norm
Happiness has more than one form
Being in the same spot has gotten old
The hot days are overrated. Time for some cold
I wouldn't mind much cooler weather
For each of the week i believe i have a sweater
Sand is nice but i want to play in the snow
If i wear the right things I'll be warm wherever i go
Should i just uproot my life and change from what i know
Just to spend it with cold weather and snow
Or do i just want a break from the mundane
To just be spontaneous and a little insane.
My body is use to being warm so would i even survive
Who knows it could make me feel more alive
Finding the peace of mind I've longer for
Healing my life long sore
Snow angels and snowball fights
Snowmen and chilly nights
An actual winter season.
Do i need...

       | Elephant Shoe
 Elephant shoe At this point there's too much I feelThe stuff of dreams becoming real
 Manifesting itself more over time
 Yet I must remain a mime
 Every action louder than every wordHoping what you see doesn't fo unheard
 For the time being this what I can do
 To simply show you elephant shoe
 Leagues, fathoms, no deeper than thisTruly desiring that first kiss
 Along with the fireworks it would bring
 Leaping forward in time like the beginning of spring
 Just to fall back in love, unconditionally forcedAfter walking in without being coerced
 Yes I'm aware those two were contradictions
 Elephant shoe with no bounds, thus no restrictions
 So I can be whatever it is you need me to be...Until we reach what I feel will happen inevitably
 No rush or no haste, lets take things slow
 Longer it takes to build the further it will go

       | Nothing Else
 Nothing else All day and all nightI think of you and its alright
 The time spent in sun's light
 Even with closed eyes you're in my sight
 My light in the dark.Guess I was cupids mark
 Bloody from the last, he was the shark
 Bitten by love so that's another mark
 Deep runs the eventual scarLike leagues or whatever is far
 Fetching for you, the dim star
 Brightest burn fast and forever we are
 A soft glow is enoughKeeps me smiling when life's tough
 Smooth out all that is rough
 Bending rocky roads like Toph
 If you missed it I'm not going backMoving foward and can't slack
 In love's game, increasing my stack
 Pressured but I'll never crack
 Black don't crack and diamonds are foreverWe fill each requirement to last together
 Through anything, life can throw whatever
 My hea...

       | Simple ThingsSimple Things
Before serious "i love you"s and "i do"
Before the finer things between us two
I just want us to have some time to share
While waiting on the love train we can gather the fare
Putting together the exact change
The things we could do have an unlimited range
So much im common as if set up by fate
We could have the most interesting date
Nerd out in a comic book store
Argue who would win against Thor
Or who's the absolute best hero
The level of boredom either way is zero
Maybe have a movie night
Theater or home, it's alright
Sitting close, you rest your head on my chest
Afterwards, debate which scene was the best
I could cook for you or you can for me
Or order pizza if we disagree
Marathon one of our favorite shows
This list just goes and goes
A walk and or a picnic in the park
Lay under the stars when it gets dark
After we watch the sunset
Finding the constellations, naming each set
Maybe have a sleep over at the house
No sex, just ...

       | Why Wait
 Why Wait This may end up being more of a rantI can wait but just doing nothing, I can't
 Just sitting here twiddling my thumb
 Drifting off looking dumb
 So to all of that I have to say noWe like each other so let's go
 Not saying we have to ride into the sun
 Just that the journey of a thousand miles starts with one
 Feelings linger on the past and I completely understandWhy not collaborate since you're about to leave that band
 Artists do it all the time, so can we
 Write some lyrics or at least make the melody
 It doesn't have to be a full blown business dealA kick starter just for proof this is real
 Making each other smile as we wait
 Something simple and meaningful as a date
 Skyscrapers started of as a mere blueprintWe could scratch the surface, make a dent
 No need to level a building or an entire field
 For we...

       | A Dream
 I have a very instense dream last nightA war against the machines so I had to fight
 The best warriors at my side
 This battle could change the tide
 For the most part it felt like I had no controlAs if just watching me from a separate soul
 Then I had a thought that broke me through
 Where, in the midst of all of this, were you
 In an instant I felt everythingThe sounds of gun fire and explosions ring
 From the looks of it we were winning
 Though the battle was ending I was beginning
 All i could do was search for youI had to find you no matter what I had to do
 Took down quite a few machines along the way
 Last thing I remember was an explosion blowing me away
 The awoke from my dream so I assume I diedWanting to see you one last time, at least I tried
 So I came to realize something true
 That I don't want my life to end if it's not en...

       | Not ReadyNot ready?
For a relationship you said you're not ready
Neither am I so we'll keep it slow and steady
Though I can no longer shade how I feel
To contain this, there's no strong enough seal
Have you ever tried covering the sun?
Just simple can't be done
So I'll continue to burn for you
Until you're ready to make our 1s a 2
Been in love but this is way more
Much deeper than waters I sank in before
On an entirely different level of love
To me you are the sexiest dove
If this was a game, can't wait for the co-op
Form a creed of our own to make hearts stop
Gaining experience and leveling up together
Always extra DLC so we'll play forever
Or we could live our favorite manga or anime
Adventures that may not always go our way
Even still we'll overcome and tall we'll stand
Cause unified our power level is over 9000
This is my promise you that I'll hold
I'll be your warmth when you're cold
We don't, at least not now, have to open heaven's gate
Not ready? Th...
