War And Sleep
I used to love you like I love sleep
I used to love you each day of the week
I used to want to make you mine
I used to even have payed a fine
I used to have so many feelings
I used to have so much love
I used to think you were so appealing
I used to think you were a dove
I used to want to hold you tight
I used to want you to fall too
I used to want to hold you each day of the night
I used to be blinded to the obvious but now I can clearly see
That the only one who did the falling was not you but me
Nowadays I am not blind, I see things much better actually
Nowadays I can tell
If it’s just me
If it’s just you
Or if it’s us
Who have fell
Now I’m onto someone new
The conditions are so much better now
I have been awakened
I can see what’s going on
I can hear your tone
I can feel your soothing touch
I can smell your cologne each and every day your not here from the many hoodies you provided for me
I can taste the every crack on your lips
All of this can be done with his hands firmly- yet gently- on my hips
I love you so much everyday
More than I thought I could do
Now I can see what it’s like to have someone who loves me too
I love you because of the way you talk
I love you because of the way you show me off
I love you because of the way I can just cry onto your shoulder without having to explain
I love you because you of the way you whisper my name
I love you because of the way I can feel your eyes on me from across the room
I love you because of the way you love me, morning, night, or noon
I love you because of the way you show me every movie you have ever watched
I love you because of the way we listen to every song until our hearts our squashed
I love you because of the way you only have eyes for me because of god knows what
I love you because of the way you that when your hugging me it feels like a zoo in my gut
I love you so much
As you do me
I am awake now as to what you could have been
Now I can tell who’s loves me
Because I am awake for the world to see
