'I miss you' by Adam Shaw

 

I'm counting the hours since I held you

And I cry in defeat as I see

I don't have enough fingers to do so.

 

I miss you.

 

I'm hearing your voice on the line

And I'm closing my eyes

To let your words flow through my mind.

 

I asked you if you missed me

When you wake up in the middle of the night

If you want me there again with you?

 

You pause for a thousand days

The stars burn out without your voice

And you whisper, 'i love you'

 

Tonight I write this is a silent memory

For I cannot speak your name

I cannot gaze upon your picture for another night

 

I miss you.

'Its you' by Adam Shaw

 

There's this emotion deep inside of me

The tears are racing down my face

I can't tell you

Can't do more than

Whisper your name

 

I weep for the day I had you here

I ache for the moment that

I held you in my arms

 

 

I dreamed of you last night

And so,

I feel compelled to write...

 

We were lying on my bed

And I remember my heart jumping

For you grabbed my hand

With a stregnth that promised a thousand things,

 

You whispered

So softly

You never realized me

Never saw me as more

Than a friend

 

Then I looked away

Afraid of your gaze

Before I realized all that was happening

Your mouth crushed mine

I lifted myself up

You were sweet

Unexperienced

like you always said you were

 

I miss you.

 

I can't shake this dream,

I've been crying all day.

 

God,

It's you.

I don't know what to do.

'Experiment' by Adam Shaw

 

I can still taste

The salt in my mouth

From the tears that streamed down these cheeks

When you tore your nails through my heart

And watched me coldly

To see how I would react.

 

You might as well have pulled out a notebook

And scribbled down the time

That my heart stopped feeling

And the tears stopped coming

Maybe record the moment that

My eyes took on a glazed appearance.

 

Did you plan this out on purpose

And place me inside a cage of glass

So that I would be able to see you

To need you

Yet not have you,

Perhaps I was just a twisted experiment.

'If i were with you' by Adam Shaw

 

You kissed me with a passion unlike anything here on earth,

When you told me that you would always love me you seemed so sure,

Now I sit here all alone with a cigarette lit,

I wish that instead it was by your side I would sit.

 

I truly believe that you are the only girl,

That i was created to love in my heart,

If only, If only, God would do his part.

 

We both said things that we don't really mean,

Our feelings and hearts got a little obscene,

But it doesn't make my heart ache any less.

 

One moment we would dance and the next we would sing,

Rememeber you cried when i gave you that ring?

 

I watch Romeo and Juliet with a certain envy,

At leats they died together to save the memory,

Of thier passion filled nights and love filld days,

You my dear, you just ran away.

 

And I sit here and my hands a little bit shaky,

As much as I need you I know that I'll make it,

For I'm stronger than the weed you compare me too,

But I would be an oak if I were with you.

'Turn it off' by Adam Shaw

 

Every time we are near,

So close we're ear to ear,

I touch your warm skin,

So close we could be kin,

Then you say 'oh wait',

Corries on at eight,

I lie back and wait,

For you to just turn it off.

 

I'm not so different from the characters in that show,

I'm jelous because they have your full attention,

So turn it off my love,

It's your feelings i need to know.

 

 

 

(My worst one yet)

 

 

That's all for now, i have others but they're againt the rules of the board so..
