Storm

The storm, it rages on just outside my window

It rattles and shakes violently, as if to say “Let me in,”

The storm she speaks to me but do I answer her call?

Do I let her in? NO. Instead I will call back to her and say “You let me in”

I rush to the door, reaching slowly for the knob unsure of the consequence

And suddenly, violently the storm calls replies “Only if you promise to get lost within”

My world shakes from her fury and with a half smile I reply just underneath my breath “I already have”

Lost

Ok second post in a day and even in an hour but I have to put these up they are 2 of my newest pieces and becoming 2 of my favorites

Feeling like I’m all but invisible, cuz I know you don’t really see me

All you ever see is the words that I lay down here right in front of me

Like a shield they are something I hide behind

When all I really want is to have you here by my side

Just as long as you’re here sitting close to me, it don’t matter what we do

So let’ leave this city in the rear view if just for tonight

Take a chance lets go find out just how far we can make it on this tank of gas and the money in my pocket

Pick a place we head out tonight, quick let’s get lost tonight

There’s no place that I’d rather be than anywhere with you
