Never give someone a permanent space in your heart if they’ve only allowed you a temporary place in their life.

I woke crying from a nightmare; in my nightmare I was losing you. Then reality set in and I realized it wasn’t a nightmare at all. It was my subconscious showing me the battles I face during the day are the same as those night terrors I try conquering while asleep.
Either way, asleep or awake, I’ll fight for you – for us.

You see it flying, hear the buzz
Shoo it away just because
It’s victims cannot heal
Then one day, out of the blue
It sneaks up on you
Bites you right in the feels
Symptoms start to kick in
Medicine is non-existent
There’s no cure for it’s bite
Smiling uncontrollably
Losing grasp of reality
Clinging to the happiness
Habits start to form
There is comfort in his arms
The sound of his voice
Then comes the worst thing
You feel like you’re flying
And you look down
The three words come out
Your wings break and you fall down
It was a hallucination
You thought you were in love
But got bit by the bug
There is no healing
The heart begins to break
Your guard was down, it’s too late
You’re a casualty of love

We were in a good place
Now I’m staring at this empty space
Wondering what to do
You said to slow things down
But whenever you’re not around
Doubt takes over me
Everything we’ve had
Friendship that should last
I don’t want to lose it
Time cannot measure
What we’ve got together
It doesn’t matter how long it’s been
Do I make you laugh?
Forget about your past?
Can you see your life without me?
I’m trying hard here
Slowing down for you, but in fear
Fear of losing us
You’re pulling back from me
Bunker’s locked, you took the key
If I knock, please let me in
Remember every conversation,
It felt right without hesitation
Let me into your heart
I know you’re afraid
We have lost our way
But we can find another path
Take a slower pace
Love is not a race
Yet here I am competing
I’m standing still this time
I can’t make you change your mind
But I do hope that I cross it
I am wonderful
You are vulnerable
Let’s lean on eachother
This is worth the wait
Stop questioning fate
Let’s cast our worries aside
Stop your overthinking
The brain’s a bomb that’s ticking
My heart will be the casualty
Trust in God. Trust in us
Trust the warmth of my touch
Trust the smile I give you
One step at a time
Because I’m losing my mind
At the thought of losing you

Happiness comes from within. It’s like a ray of sunshine shooting through the window on a nice day. It’s warmth makes you smile and gives you hope. Yes, sometimes the clouds get in the way. Yes, some days it has to rain. But sometimes there’s a rainbow – and then you get hope again. Happiness comes from within; so let it warm you on a nice day and let yourself hope when it’s cloudy.
