Black and white
Day and night
Heard and said
Happy and dread
Empty and full
Kind and cruel

funny how life unfolds...

A new, poetic version of a classic. A must share.

Never forget that I crossed an ocean, because I wanted to hold your hand in mine.

Reggaeton thumping
Heart racing
Lights flashing
Blue eyes dancing
World stopping
A life together, beginning

You flow, in and out of my life
Like waves that crash with no compassion 
My flesh wanting the force of you
My heart forever lost in the depths of you 

You are violent 
Against a loving shore
You are gentle
When you need more

Your eyes are my blue ocean
Take the water from mine

The lyrics of this song by A Great Big World 
with Christina Aguilera are poetry set to music. 
I can listen to this song over and over, 
and imagine the story in my mind...

Say something, I'm giving up on you  
  (I want you)
I'll be the one, if you want me too  
  (put that in your heart)
Anywhere, I would've followed you  
  (I would have)
Say something, I'm giving up on you  
  (please...)

And I am feeling so small  
  (yes, so very small...)
It was over my head  
  (I didn't know)
I know nothing at all  
  (no, I knew nothing at all)

And I will stumble and fall  
  (every day without you)
I'm still learning to love  
  (because this is what love is)
Just starting to crawl  
  (I want to crawl to you)
 
Say something, I'm giving up on you  
  (I want you)
I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you  
  (I tried)
Anywhere, I would've followed you  
  (I think you know this to be true)
Say something, I'm giving up on you  
  (please...)

And I will swallow my pride  
  (for you)
You're the one that I love  
  (you saw my eyes)
And I'm saying goodbye  
  (you are with me, in every step I take...) 

I wonder if you knew
Why I smiled when I looked at you
It's because my heart was telling me
Everything I ever wanted was in front of me
For what it was worth
In that moment in time
I was yours, and you were mine...

He never saw me
All that I am
And, I believe
I will never see his eyes again
So, No
I won't fear the night
And, I won't fall apart
I will stay strong
Because I know my own heart

I know the colors of you will fade away. But, this I can assure you. I will travel my path, with you in my heart, for the rest of my days.

I am everything beautiful
I am the spring, to your autumn
I am all the things you don’t want 
I am all the things you can’t see
With your eyes that once danced for me
