I love them boys with the slicked back hair. Those form fitting pants add the right amount of flair, Shirts clinging nicely to their upper arm muscles, Makes me wonder if they'd use 'em in a tussle. Their faces always as straight as can be. Makes me wonder if they just look, or really see. I don't know what it is about this type of boy; But something about them makes me coy. I like to imagine a life I could share, With one of them boys with the slicked back hair.

I Love Them Boys
Sometimes I wish I was romantic Because the pressure of "cute things" Quite often makes me frantic

I don't think it's weird It's not something to be feared. I think about you, quite often too. You're the person I think of, You're the someone I love. But the timing is not right, It's cool because I won't take flight. I'll be right here for you, I promise I'll be right on cue.

I don't know what else to do I'm always here for you. Through the bad most of the time Trying to get you up to climb. Sometimes it doesn't feel like it's enough like whatever I say is just word fluff And you toss it aside And it's taken by a tide

Can you tell I've stopped trying (I feel like you don't need me) Most of the time I feel like I'm prying (Is this how it's going to be?) You're going to be just fine (You no longer need my help) You have others to hear you whine (I just have to accept it) You're going to be successful (I'll stand back proud but empty) And people are going to (Maybe you don't need me but I) Need you

Outside and Inside
I remember the day you hit me Struck me across the face Grabbing my arm before you decided To put me in my place. "Dumb ***** were the words That escaped your lip While I stumbled to catch Myself as I tripped Falling to the curb Tears running down my face A warm spot on my cheek Not from an embrace Hand to cheek, hand to cheek Was the order it went But the cheeks were both mine Your message was sent The blow came so fast I didn't expect it No time to put up defense Face had to accept it If betrayal had a taste It's of copper in the mouth Saliva mixed with blood Sliding down south Words can barely describe how I felt that day To be put in my place Was not okay I remember the day you hit me Struck me across the face The day I decided you belonged outside my heart That THAT was your place.

Unforgettable
There are few things that I want in life Few things that are missed. But you for sure are one of them, With you my life is kissed.

I guess it's time To move on straight To put the phone down And stop waiting for a date. No more waiting for the text I know will never come. No more expecting "I love you" When I know there should be none

"It could be worse" is what they say. As if that's all to make me feel okay "There's people with cancer, disease and no food. You have it all, have it good" But I think it can be worse. As a matter of fact, I know it. To live life without love or to live life and not show it. Perhaps a life without love isn't all that bad. Because I just thought of something to make one more sad. Living a life full of love for that one special person Showing them all the time, even giving up cursin'. I'm sure it doesn't sound bad, Until you look at the side. Seeing unrequited love, seeing how they lied.
