when you fall in love

when you fall, o how you fall
without restraint
without fear or caution
the dream couldn't be taint

and he was your gravity
pulling you down full force
you fell so dizzyingly fast
no time to think or feel remorse

and when you hit the ground
you broke- shattering into pieces
gone are all the dreams with him
gone the hopes and wishes

then tears fell like rain
dissolved each broken shard
till all the pieces became
once again, a whole heart

cause broken hearts will mend
though we fall over and over again
and as much as the next one might hurt
you're willing to brave the pain

delusions

in a world of blinding fluorescent lights
i was drowning in a sea of gray faces
pushed and shoved around without direction
only silence fills the empty spaces

frantically reaching out, i screamed your name
but my voice was drowned out by the storm
and though you're just a beautiful delusion
even the jealous wind snatched away your form

the rain chills me to my bones but still
i embraced it, gladly let it drench my skin
cause it's the only way to hide my tears
and camouflage the breaking heart within

frantically reaching out, i screamed in pain
but my voice was drowned out by the storm
and though love is just a beautiful illusion
the dreamer wakes and the magic is gone
