Missing you (From a secret admirer/friend)

The day he left
A part of you went with him
You tightly sealed your heart
And pushed me away

I find myself
lost without you
I find myself
missing you

I miss the way
you tuck those wayward strands
behind your ears
I miss the way
the room lit up when you smile
I miss the way
my heart skipped a beat
when you caught my eye

Wake up dearest
See the world through my eyes
Feel the music inside
Set yourself free

Memories (To an old friend)

Remember those nights
at the Cotton Club?
Where we danced all night
Till the break of dawn?

Remember those nights
at the Cotton Club?
When we swing, we jived
Away from our troubles
Stamping our feet
On our misery?

Remember those nights
at the Cotton Club?
Where the dance floor bound us
Our limbs tightly wound together
As we moved to the same beat

Those nights are no more
Swallowed by the passing time
But the memory of it lives on
At the back of our mind
Like a revered shrine

A piece of me

My mother hates you
My father avoids you
But you're most precious to me
My sanctuary
Where I can be me

My little piece of heaven
Your walls kept me safe
Standing guard as I roam the world
Knowing I will come back down to Earth
Always

What no one understand is
Every piece of trash
Every chipped paint
Every scribbles on the wall
Every part of you is me

I came back the other day
And was shocked
They've changed you
Painted over our memories
Now will you change me?

Suddenly it rained
And you slyly let drops of it
Fell on me
I let out a sigh
You're still you
I'm still me.
