To Be Him

I wonder what it was like to be you
When you were young and felt immortal
Before time and vice would prove you wrong

To mend all things broken with your touch
While the cracks in you were getting deeper

To chase your dreams across the ocean blue
Until its waves of woe crashed into you

To have been loved by everybody once
Yet to be waiting for your end in exile

I wonder what it was like to be you
But I hope to never find out
Until the day that I do

Senses

Eyes are for girls on the street Strolling in late spring Scent's for the trace of perfume On moonlit bare skin Ears are for tuning old strings Before serenades Touch is for shoulders brushing On first movie dates Taste is for ice-cream scoop licks Because of course that it is! Legs are for walking slowly Except when you’ve got to run Lips are for kissing loved ones Except when sealed with sin Hands are for holding on tight Even when they're trembling Hairs are for waving in winds Even when graying and thin Your face is for catching sunlight When you’re breathing in.. - vktr

Dearest Friend

How wonderful it is to have a friend To illuminate your darkest hours With kind words spoken softly Or anecdotes in jest A brief warm touch A smile without context To let you know you matter Beyond the confines of yourself A friend that sees more in you Than you can ever find within They quickly learn your flaws But favour all your virtues To reveal what you only wish you could be If you were half the person that entails So, my dearest friend, know that I cherish you For lifting me in flight And though our time will surely pass As the wind scatters us across at night I’ll forever keep you in my heart And search for you among the stars... - vktr
