I've been called a dreamer. A thing I've always embraced.
But people laugh and people joke, until I've been displaced.
Have you heard of hopeless romantics? Those who wish that fate could be real?
Those who twist and turn, wishing that a soulmate would reveal?
Those people end up single. Crying alone at night.
Wishing that the romance books would turn to real life.
Maybe you've heard of optimis...
Focus, focus, focus,
Is repeating in my head.
But my dreams are alive,
And my concentration’s dead.
A problem on the table,
And another in my mind.
The complication's stirring
And I'm really in a bind.
My attention has been captured,
It's too late to go back.
Now without these daydreams,
I may just crack in half.
I adore the little visions,
Of the things I know aren't bad.
Or haven't been bad e...
I stare into your eyes,
Afraid of what they say.
You let out a few sighs,
But I won't go away.
Together we are dark,
Because I hear your thoughts.
You won't say there's a spark,
Because you're scared of knots.
Any sort of tie to me,
Any sort of connection,
Leaves you to lie to me,
Which causes imperfection.
The messages are mangled.
I can’t tell what you’re thinking.
The words become entangled,...
Every tear you shed,
Sparks a fire in my chest.
I am jealous of the feelings,
Jealous because I am impressed.
I couldn’t feel a tiny thing,
For my emotions have turned numb.
There wasn’t room for any pain,
When my long day was done.
I wish that I could hurt that way,
A way that makes me sad.
But I take every giant loss,
And pretend that I am glad.
Denial is my favourite thing,
Though it makes m...
I glared into the eyes of my deepest shame. The being that destroyed every part of my life that hadn’t yet turned cruel. It smiled softly back at me, for it was only a baby; my baby. I lived alone with the filthy thing, listening to its cries as I desperately fought to tune out the voices screaming all around me. For the baby wasn’t the only thing trapped in my head and in my home. I was never alo...
A soft, calming smile,
Or an inviting, fun grin?
How much trouble
Will each get me in?
One’s just a boy,
Incapable of hurting.
Another is a man,
One that loved the flirting.
He’s always sweet to me,
Walks me home every night.
Lays a kiss on my cheek,
Always treating me right.
He’s not mean but joking,
He gives me all but half.
He likes to shoot a wink,
Which always makes me laugh.
He always ta...
Maybe if I let you win
You’d finally stop and just give in
But my ambition crushes pity
And you’ll be playing with the witty
I made my plan and acted serious
But you were always being delirious
You took it harder than I did
Even though I hate to kid
You found a victim from a distance
Watched them shower me in kisses
Then you had a brilliant thought
That without love I’d lay to rot
As you cre...
In the kitchen where we met,
Holds a memory in my head.
You were cooking all alone,
Before I called you on the phone.
You didn’t know who I was,
Only that I called because…
I needed food in my system,
Something special, maybe wisdom.
You advised me to be hopeful,
That darkness wasn’t always mopeful.
I asked if we could have a meeting,
And you’d be pleased to have a greeting.
I saw your eyes...
“The death of family,
The world’s greatest loss.
For me was never hard,
For paths we’re never crossed.
I’m still standing,
Here over a father.
One that was loved,
But love he couldn’t bother.
I was left alone,
To be raised by a whore,
One that didn’t love,
Or do anything more.
Yet a father was out there,
One that had things for me.
But he kept far away,
Until he was set free.
You lucky bastard...
A card flips swiftly,
Landing softly on top.
It shows an image of you.
My heart comes to a stop.
The card reads THE SUN
And I can’t help but dream
Of when you were here,
Sewn to me like a seam.
You bring me my light,
Help my world flow.
The sun is always here,
But you I let go.
You are the sun.
Light that keeps me alive.
I love you forever,
Until the day we both die....
