16 Static in My Mind

Days pass you by

Quicker than you seem to know

Too fast to remember

Memories are blurs

Faces are static in your mind

Words fly by

And wind rushes past the windows

Songs end and lyrics stop

Laughs fade away as smiles disappear

The twinkle in your eyes

Twists and turns

Changing into something

I never want to see

Sadness and anger

The pain of loss and heartbreak

The days pass by

Quicker than you seem to know

The leaves change color

Snow falls and melts in the sun's heat

Countless faces fill my vision

Eyes of green and brown and grey

Smiles of temptation

Grins of deceit

But the only eyes I want to see are

Your ocean blues

And the only smile I want

Lighting up my mornings is

Your joy filled grin

The days passing by

Are nothing to me

When you're not in them

Never will I recall the times spent with others

Never will I crave another's touch

Like I crave yours

Always will I know the days

You're not by my side

The days pass you by

As I await your return

The air turns frigid and scorching

As I wait for you

Too long are the years that

I don't find you

Moments disappear

Memories fade away

Making room for you

Days pass me by

Quicker than I seem to know

Too fast to remember

Memories are blurs

Faces are static in my mind

Words fly by

And wind rushes past the windows

As I wait for you

Your laugh on the wind

Your smile in the sun

Your eyes in the light

As I wait for you

I forget all I've known

When you pass me by

I know I've found you

Because I love you
