Realms



We make our own paths. 

~ One day, today will meet yesterday. ~

She was traveling through different realms, 
Trying to find a place where she could reign. 
She decided it was time to crown herself,
To finally become the ruler of her own place.

Nothing before has really ever made sense 
In all the different realms she has travelled.
She's fought her way at her own expense,
Coming out finding even more battles.

But one day she will sit on her own throne. 
She will finally be the ruler of her own kind.
One day she make it out of this to atone
For all the ailments that had once ruled her mind.

There's a place somewhere where she can be 
All that she has ever wanted to.
This is a place for only privileged eyes to see.
A place where anyone can awake renewed.

Only the ones who have shared a mind like hers
Will ever be invited into her kingdom.
They've caught madness, but found the cure,
Still holding on to faded times that can't be undone.

She'll sit there on her gorgeous thrown.
Oh, what plans she has for a change.
She'll change the only life she's ever known.
She just has to find her realm some day. 

She's been searching so she can save you,
And all the you you will ever be.
One day your past will be forgiven and renewed.
She knows she just needs to find the sanctuary.

The steps she took brought you here over time,
Like she's been setting up a stage.
You've been walking on her path to find
That she was following you the whole way.   

Now you sit here looking down from her throne,
A solid crown firmly placed on your heads.
She looks up from the past you chose on you own.
Now you're changing the life she's lead.

Castle




Sometimes all we need is a place to feel at ease.

~ Let it live forever in our memories. ~

Five in the morning.
I couldn't sleep last night,
But then I turn around to see your eyes.

I've been learning
How to leave my past behind,
But now only thoughts of you are in my mind.

Pure white sheets.
My ghosts are still haunting.
You place your arm safely around me.

I've been healing
From the ailments in my past.
You embrace me, making it all worth it at last.

Sun in the window.
I thought darkness was a way to live.
Finally, you're the ray of hope shining in.

I've been dreaming
For those fairytales to come true.
Finally, the person I've been dreaming of is you.

Our own castle.
This was worth the wait.
I finally found the place where I feel safe.

I've been searching
For a way out of my dissatisfaction.
Now I've found someone I never imagined.

Our own sanctuary.
Nothing can touch us
In here because it's built on love.

Now I'm happy.
I know that as I wake by your side.
You can't take your morning eyes off of mine.

In our own castle,
The rest of the world fades away.
There's nothing else we need but one more day.

Stale Thoughts and Tainted Minds


Things happen when you least expect them to. 

~ Stop thinking. ~

Stale thoughts, tainted minds. 
Memories renewed. 
Eyes wide, change of times. 
A new point of view. 

From where we start this,
How is this possible?
From all that has been,
How could this be?

Cotton tops, button up shirts.
A breath of fresh air.
Park benches, fireworks.
Stories we share.

Sweatshirts, pretty dresses.
On the fancy side.
Red napkins, gentle senses.
Smiles in our eyes.

My eyes gaze up,
Suddenly, I turn away.
Maybe this is luck.
Suddenly, I'm not afraid.

Lipstick, coffee cups.
Fancy four wheel rides.
First kiss, new trusts.
Feeling a different high.

Sweet words, gentle whispers.
A new way to listen.
Cold nights, warm blankets.
The past is forgiven.

This is very new.
I don't know what I'm doing.
This is very true.
I don't want it to end.

New thoughts, dirty glasses.
A tale of what's to be.
New dreams, jean jackets.
You are all I can see.

We've never felt this way before.
But I'm letting you in now
We've never wanted so much more,
But I want you now.

Pull



Open the door to what could be. 

~ Give in the the pull.~

This isn't what I had expected. 
I never thought I'd be this tempted,
but there you stand across the room,
and I already feel a pull to you.

You're beautiful and so magnetic,
The chemistry is so energetic.
I have never felt this way.
I'm just hoping that you'll stay.

All the other people begin to blur.
All I see is one single fleur
de lis that matches mine.
You're the one I needed to find.

I don't know how I let you in so easily.
All the others fought, as I stayed free,
but I give in in no time this time.
You already have a hold of my mind.

When I finally reach you, you don't leave.
I hope you'll stay around to see what's underneath.
Just look at how many times you've restored my faith
in something I thought only for a magical place.

You've made me believe magic is real.
I know it's real in everything we feel.
It's not just a tale for old souls to say.
Now it's our story we live each day.

You're beautiful and so tempting.
This was never what I was expecting,
but the stories they tell are true.
I have found my prince in you.

I couldn't have predicted this. 
You're the answer to my every wish. 
I  follow the temptingly magnetic pull to you. 
I walk to you from across the room.
