Playing the cards I've been given and hoping that no one calls my bluff.
You say that you love me. Our ties too strong to sever. Your future fears say "it can't be" You're losing me forever.

Leaves in autumn started falling much like this young couple stalling. "Time to go." Her mother's calling. Out of time he bids farewell.

fall
Eyes are the windows to the soul. One does not see with their eyes but with their brain. The eyes are but windows letting in the light. My brain says stop while my heart says go. My brain ceases to work when you're around. Is that why love is blind? I need a guide because I think I'm about to fall again.

I'm blind
So I'm am idiot and a fool Well that's something I knew a long time ago. But constant reminders are far from welcome. I haven't shut the door and they sneak in slow. I should have closed it a long time ago. I'm feeling a draft tonight. Leaving is the one I did only just find. Dark is nothing but the absence of light And cold is just the absence of  heat. I'm shivering at the thought of going blind.

Do you feel a draft?
They say that every cloud has a silver lining. So I held onto that hope to keep from falling. Only then did I realize that I'd been deceived. When it sliced through my palms and and I fell to my knees. The sun disappeared, silver turned to gray. Unable to stand, I could only but pray. They say that every cloud has a silver lining. A precious mineral found in the dull of the stone. I thought I had found it in dark once while mining. The ceiling collapsed and broke every bone. They say that every cloud has a silver lining. I searched the smoke to find that light. Thought I had found it piercing and blinding. I stared far too long, now my day is night.

Silver Lining
I'd never seen someone like her, with perfect smile contagious. I knew that in her soul, a fire. Enough for all it rages. I turned to look into her eyes and found the perfect storm. This girl I've found is something else, she's far above the norm. "Man the trap and Reef the sail!" Alas I was too late For The girl without a chance I stood. I'd fallen in the lake. A broken hiking strap is proof enough that for my fall. That sudden gusts from girls like her I did not plan at all. Head over heels I tumbled down. I didn't seem to mind. Maybe with luck, most likely not I'd some day call her mine

Red in morning
Hey you Yeah you The man in the mirror Well not exactly More like a boy In between Yes that's what you are In the middle Too old to have fun like in past not again Too young to do this, right here, there and then Right in the middle Not of age but the coming of it The time to complain To act older than you are and then younger than you should A voice crack of maturity There's disease all around Yes depression and mono and self doubt exist they're there in a multitude It's quite obvious too No need to allude Enough for everyone to have a little or a lot no matter what you'd prefer Yet the problem lies with us we're never quite sure We're not sure which we'd rather have We're not sure what is worst What to do What to say when it's time to let go Or if we should stay To let on that at night sometimes you pray Not sure what to but sometimes Sometimes it's just something to say A cry into oblivion For anyone to hear Yet no one will listen That's my biggest fear To let someone know That For her you shed tears Of both joy and of sorrow "Man that's pretty gay" That you're scared what will happen tomorrow next day Next Month And Next year I'm Not sure I don't know Take control of your fate Don't let the gray rule The smoke machine of our lives Is fattened and fed Indecisiveness is the plague hanging over our heads It's a cloud bringing rain Soaking the ground The reason the worms have gathered around And what will we do when we need to make sense Of things that are happening now Present tense Is it yes is it no? you can't always stay neutral "I just don't know" Please don't give me that Make a decision for once in your life For anyone's sake just answer the question I don't want to hear what you think is best for me or for you For somebody please Just let me know what it is you believe you're driving me crazy my head's in a stew I just want a simple no or a yes "It's for my own good" means nothing at all Because staring at shoelaces gives little away I'm not sure what it is why can't you just say I don't deserve much but respect would be nice So just look in my eyes I only beg that you spare me your lies Pierce my heart with a spear Or keep it held close And always near Just let me know! Sure rejection hurts but it's healthy to hear Just be blunt to my face don't quiver in fear

I'm alive but barely breathing, Troubled lungs with time receding. Oceans swelling deep within me, Close my eyelids, open now free. Forbidden love demands a loser, Better I go down without her. This ships sinking, fate demanding. Losing altitude, plane's crash landing. Plane kiss ground, knife into skin, ****** water, sharks, I see fin. Feeding frenzy, ripped into shreds, Liquid racing, childhood sleds. Winter wonderland, now stained red, What the **** is wrong with my head? Cleanse in shower, I'm still ***** Put my mask on "Yeah I'm sturdy". Headphones on, I won't hear a thing, Never mind dad's started yelling. Out the door, maybe if I run. Dusty pavement, sparks from a gun. How the hell did I end up here? Outside her house, with no one else near. Ring the bell? No I'm a coward. Once again I'm overpowered. Call a friend and smoke some grass, I think of how I've been an *** If I stepped in her shoes I'd see, Never mind they're too small for me. Return home, collapse into bed, Swirling thoughts inside of my head. Reality hurts when it bites, I'll try and sleep it off tonight.

Collapsible Lungs
I'm sorry I ever told you I loved you. Not because it is not the truth. But because I'm only saying what we both know is true. The first night I said it was late on the phone. I was scared for what you would put yourself through. I said it to you tears audible in my tone. Three words that mean so much, yet never enough. I gave myself completely to you My cards turned outwards for you to call my bluff You only once returned those words towards me. But now you deny that, Water from my eyes for all to see. I wish you never said those words "I love you" I could see it in your eyes, each one a galaxy. Some Words are more overrated than the color blue I said it once,  from there now i overused Conversing now lazy because "I love you" No more amoret or hazel, three words now I abused Because I said those words this is difficult. I became who I swore not to be. In modesty never now alone's the result.
