One of the hardest things to say to someone is goodbye
especially if you can’t give a reason or explain why.

Kisses don't compare
To all the little things we do
Singing in the car
Holding hands
Dancing in the kitchen

The little moments last forever
With you

Hold me together
We’re almost there
Tangled and taut
Do we have time?

If you can't see the forest, do you know about the trees
Can you see that they are there, along with birds and some bees
They are a driving force of nature and bring about new life
They are the single most important thing, oh wait, so is my wife...

Always pay attention to your surroundings.
Amanda Kay Burke Jan 2020
I love you more than hate myself
The worst thing is you do too
Don't know what you see in me
I am so shocked that you do
If only we could trade eyes for a day

I no longer have an old hearth to fire
An old flame to blow out
Let alone coal to kindle

I let all of those old memories go
Out and cold long ago
With my youthful desire

I've made way for you, future
So that I could burn anew

I wait
And wait anew
My opinion of myself... Far too high. For sure.
Colm Jan 2020
The end
A poignant secret
See

You're my type of breeze
The height of trees
Whispering in the arms of wind
I can't wait for the beginning. Not the end.
Amanda Kay Burke Dec 2019
As I become the thing always feared
See my life ending too fast
Honest consequences catching up
Chance after ruined chance
Wasted mistakes consuming me
Fall to my lowest point
Scrambling to hold together
It's no secret I'm a ****-up
Never following through my decisions
Promising to be a greater person
Screaming at reflection
Cold to touch
Colder to feel
Thawing much too late
But for certain
Softly inviting something like love
The wanting in my eyes
Silently hoping affection
One small kiss
My biggest wish
Must be dreaming
No one will ever want this
Ehh
