Villanelle

When I look in your eyes I’ll see the lies
The lies that tell me what your gonna be
If you be that guy I’ll just say goodbye.

When I talk to you I just give a sigh
What you get is not always what you see
When I look in you eyes I’ll see the lies.

I want to tell but it seems I can’t fly
I don’t know what to do so please, hear me
If you be that guy I’ll just say goodbye.

When the Sun Comes Out After the Rain

When the Sun Comes Out After the Rain

When the sun comes out after the rain
I know everything will be okay
It’s you who’s come to look down on me

My eyes are opened to a new begging
Everything seems okay again
When the sun comes out after the rain

As the showers subside to the bright sun
I see a ray of light shine down from the once dark clouds
