Borderlines

Memories fade from what's been done
Navigating the conversations from a passioned one

Paranoia grows as our distance expands via a phone
Emotive text speech borderlines the unknown
Lost in translation, confused and all alone
Mixed signals and my sat nav can't find my home

Are you lying empty and hollow?
Do you need some emotions to borrow?
Will you lead or will you follow?
Are you drowning in sorrow?

Abandoned love looks for another
We crossed the borderlines from each other
Check point, check mate, game over
One's lost and one wins a new lover

White van man waves a white flag
He's navigated the borderlines and back
His sat nav is newer with an updated map
He surrenders in a text with emoticons that dance and clap

Borderlines designed from hate
No picket fences and white gates
I found my way home but its too late
You upped and left to cross the border into a better state

The grass may be better on the other side
But it's a borderline illusion others hide
A tempting and alluring mirage in the summer heat too high
When the winter comes the picturesque scene melts into the frosty sky

You walk in the door, and explain about your day, You describe in detail who said what and when and why.

Autopilot

We have the same conversation, Just circling around, About me looking up, While you stare down, It seems a lot about nothing, A fuss I create from thin air, But you say the same things, It's like...

Exhale

He doesn't notice you anymore. He looks right through you. This is one of those moments, you run everything you want to say through in your head and decide to keep quiet.

Passing By

I can't recall the moment when the doubt ripped your face, Or put my finger on quite when the fog took your place..

Twisted Love

A pretence of sleep, a steady breath. Your touch is warm and full of love But I remain cold. There is love here, but patience is thin And we are stretched out.

Beyond Broken

See the warnings, see the signs. It easier to just act blind. Until all that's left is silence. Together you feel apart. No longer speaking, no longer feeling. The space once crossed now void.
