I Saw The Most Beautiful Sunset In Your Eyes

I've seen many
Beautiful sunsets,
And though
This one
Might be
The most
Beautiful one
We'll ever see,
I'm more enchanted
By the face
That's lit
By the fading sun.
The oranges
And purples
That light up your eyes
Only add to your
God-given beauty
And I can't
Help myself
As I'm falling
In love with you.

Loved


You are loved
More than words
Could ever say
More than actions
Could portray
You are loved
Not because of
What you do
Not because
Of how you act
Or what you say
Or any of that
You're a son
You're a daughter
And you are loved
No matter what

So don't let
The world beat
You down
Stand up
For yourself
Stand up
And tell them all
You're worth it
For you
Are
Loved.

Guide Me Home

Show me the lights
That'll guide me home
Right into your arms
Where I feel safe
Under those sheets
Really might be
The only place
I've ever felt safe.

I've grown weary
Of this cold world
Ready to shun
At the drop of a hat
Willing to hurt
Step right over you
Every little chance
They seem to get.

Close the curtains
Turn off the lights
I'm giving up on
Fighting this fight
Take me in
Keep me close
I just wanna sleep
And forget this world.

Another Time, Another Place


I love you
With all of me,
I truly do
And I know
You love me too
I see it in
Your nervous eyes
As you smile
Right past
Your insecurities.

But these are not
Our lives, love,
This isn't our
Chance to be
Fate played a game,
Watched it unfold
From the moment
You said hello
That summer afternoon.

But maybe there is
A time, a place
Where we will be reborn
And we'll outdo our fates,
Meet each other before
The world has beaten us down
And grown us weary,
Jaded, really,
A place, a time
When we'll spend our lives
In each other's arms,
Watching the years pass by
Kissing our mortality away
One day at a time,
Having known love,
Having loved you
From the moment
You'll say hello
That summer afternoon.

Perhaps, there will be
Another time, another place...
