Teach me Something

I need your love

That tempts me

To be selfish

But teaches me

Not to be

Pray

I pray for Us

I pray for Our Future

I pray for Forgiveness

I pray for Our happiness

every day

Because i love you

We vanished

Like the glow

of a lightning bug

in the early hours

of a drunken night

turned morning

we vanished

gone before anyone 

could witness the magic

For the Almost

We will not

go down in history.

No one will write a book

about how we

moved mountains and hills.

But someone

somewhere

will pick up this

piece of paper 

and know

that we were real.

I choose to love

i waited for you

as the dessert

waited for rain

until i realized

the dessert doesn't

have a choise,

I do.
