Solar Eclipse of Her Heart

She’s waiting for the sunrise
thinking it’s just like you
bringing light when it appears
melting away the morning dew

She’s enjoying the sunshine
not a dark cloud in sight
like you, it brought her peace
casting her worries aside

She’s afraid of the sunset
it’s beautiful but ever-changing
just like your feelings were for her –
unpredictable and quickly fading

She feels sorry for the sun
never getting to meet the moon
maybe someday when they collide
her heart will un-break, too

Boomerang

She thought you were her slingshot
Launching her into a bright future
Yet here she is in the same spot
Wondering why you wouldn’t keep her

Cover Your Eyes

It’s when she’s laying in silence
She can hear the tick of the clock
Her mind’s racing miles per minute
Then suddenly – the faintest thought

A thought waking her memory
It stumbled upon your laugh
In that moment she frowned
It hurts to play it back

Those moments used to be easy
Falling asleep to your ‘goodnight’
Her face would be lit up
Her thoughts were so lite

You – the only thing crossing her mind
Her – wearing the smile you gave
But now she only holds your memory
In a sleepy corner hidden away

Those corners keep her up at night
She’s wide awake in a nightmare
The silence turned into a bright nightlight
And her eyes won’t adjust to the glare

Up, Up & Away

I’ve always deserved more than I’ve let life give me

I’m finally on the path to being the woman I was meant to be

I’m going to find her someday – and it’s going to be someday soon

I’m done sending all of my wishes up & off to the moon
