"In My Dreams"

I look into a void of nothing,
and see myself grow older.
You left me.
In your eyes, I am already dead,
But I'm still breathing,
and in love with the memory of you.
In my dreams, you're there.
But where you stood, there is empty space.
The taste of your lips on mine
stays with me.
I still feel your arms arund me,
hear you whisper into my ear
that you love me.
I stand here at the brink, alone,
whispering into the night that
I still love you.
And then I was gone, forever.
I jumped into the night.
My life tore away from me,
fell through my fingertips.
I fought desperatly
against the black.
But it is too late.
Now I have left you.

The dark rushes in,
holds me down.
All around me,
there are faces.
From my past, from my future,
I can't tell.
All I know is that you're
not there.
The smoke clouds over my eyes,
and stops my breathing.
I try desperatly
to get away.
I can't.
You're still not there.
My only hope, my only chance of escape
can't be found.
My hope, my love, my life, is all gone.
And now i just let it happen.
The black is stronger now,
So I just close my eyes.

"If Only"

My heart stopped-
just for a moment.
I saw her for the first time,
and then I knew.
I knew that I would care for her,
if only she would care for me.
I would give her my heart,
anything she wanted.
I would be good to her,
if only she would be good to me.
I would give her the stars,
the sun, and the whole sky.
I would put my trust in her,
if only she would ut his trust in me.
I would give her all that I had,
my love, my life, my happiness.
I would smile at just the thought of her,
if only she would smile at me.
I would take away her sadness,
and give her nothing but joy.
I would hold her,
if only she would hold me.
I would pick her up when he falls,
I would take care of her.
I really would love her,
if only she would love me.
