Snow

Haiku for Writer's Craft. Thought it fit the weather we're having.

Wind whispers and howls,
blows the snow gently down, yet,
blinds and breaks the trees

New Face

Just another face.
--

Give me one chance to explain
That I didn’t want things this way
Seein you, my heart’s burnin’ in flames
I feel like I’m suffocating
Yet babe, I’m too stressed for this pain
Just believe me when I say I’m gonna change
Cause you know I’m not all into this game
Just understand me and believe me
Am I the one to blame–
As I walk through, going through my day
All these words that I’m wishin’ I could say
Just to see you happy
Can’t wait to see you again.

Could I say you’re beautiful today?
[I don’t know, but hey]
Would it do any good?
[I don’t know, but Hell- it could]
Can I say you’re so amazing?
[And this feeling that you give me–]
I can’t wait, no can’t wait
To see you again

[I wanna say I love you, love you
But I’m just too insecure
Oh girl I love you, loving you
And that’s the only truth

Just need a chance to show my heart
Just another chance to play the part
You are the brightest by far
In the night amongst the stars

The things that I need to do
All I ever what I wanted is you.]

Baby, You and I

Callin’ you on your phone
Knowin’ that you aren’t home

You are always on my mind
Every day, every night
I just knew
You had to be mine
Forever – baby
Just you and I

Felt like you were my best friend
That feelin’ was just amazin’
The way you blew my mind
It was like I’m flyin’ high
And just something we can’t deny
I want you to be mine

Oh girl~
I see you, I walk right by
Oh girl~
How do I make you mine?
Say girl!~
I want to stay by your side
Hey girl…
Just call me up tonight

Cause –
You are always on my mind
Every day, every night
I just knew
You had to be mine
Forever – baby
Just you and I

You are always on my mind
Every day, every night
I just knew
You had to be mine
Forever – baby
Just you and I

Jonny's Girl

Hm…I’m starting to forget
I try so hard to keep these memories
Of the time that we met
Tried so hard, they’ve become dreams
And now I’m finding it hard to believe…
--

What was it about you?
The way I walked into that classroom
The way you greeted and smiled
Though I had another, another –
Person.
In my world

I cast the thought away
Yet with each day
That I saw you
The feeling grew
And bloomed

April 2nd, was it?
I can scarcely remember
Sitting inside after a walk
So ashened and sobered
Eating ice cream
Chocolate, was it?
I can scarcely remember
Must be a dream

Yet, I remember so vividly
You told me that apparently
He stole your heart, and broke it.
That was when my heart sank
Like sun cast away from my world
And I thought to myself then
How I wanted Jonny’s girl

Jonny was a friend
Like an older brother
But when I found out then
I could look at him no longer
Cause I wanted Jonny’s girl

The seventh, was it?
Must have been
Cause I risked a friend
To ask you boldly
Hoping that eventually
You’d be mine.
“What if I said I really liked you?”
Was all that came through

You looked at me and said no
I somehow knew this was how it’d go
But I never believed
That a week from then
The seventeenth I remember
Would be when you held my hand.

Now at night I sometimes lie awake
Trying to remember our hugs
And I realize one thing
You aren’t the girl I fell for
Not the same love
Not anymore
But still a close friend at heart
And to me, that’s just enough

New Year

It’s a new year
The things we’ll see
Laughter and tears
Things we could never dream
Will happen eventually
As we stand in line
Waiting our turn
One at a time

Though it may sound absurd
But when this year passes through
We’ll part separate ways
And as we do
We may forget these faces
Beside us now
Without a doubt

But we’ll always have memories
Our memories of past affections and love
And these memories…
Will often be just enough

Missing U

Don’t know much about you now
Haven’t really seen your smile
Don’t know much about your world
While we’re here pacing this Earth

I want to ask how you’ve been
Surprised that you want to see me again
Yeah I know it has been a while
I wish I could just kiss you now

Just like before
I should’ve held onto you
Just like before
I should’ve said I loved you

You’re the one I’ve always yearned
For and I’m just waiting my turn
For these memories here to burn
More than ever
I look in the mirror
I don’t even know her

Anymore.

Don’t know much about you now
Haven’t really seen your smile
Don’t know much about your world
While we’re here pacing this Earth
Of ours

Do You Remember The Time of Your Life

[What's wrong with September? School. That's what.]

--

I’m so glad you made the time
To see me and speak again
“How’s your life –
How’ve you been?”

You’ve been kind to me,
But been busier than ever
With all that school work
Too busy to talk about the weather
Oh baby do you remember
Oh baby remember, when
We use to hold each other
Like this–

I go back to September all the time
Trying so hard to realize
What went wrong
Things I've just gone along
With this smile...
