??Is there one word to describe several tumultuous emotions? How can one feel broken, defeated and relived all at once? Is there one word to describe that I am a fool over and over again but I refuse to stop loving & making amends? I will be free, I will be open and show myself clear. At least until someone hurts me bad enough to change my mind and put me in fear. but it's not you , you didn't defeat me. I refuse to be bitter, it was a grand adventure I'll treasure forever.

AcheThe wall too high, the moat too deep; if I'd met him years ago he would have been more free. / The ache has obscured his sight so much, he can't even see me, refuses my touch. / So he guards, he deflects and strums his guitar, sings of past loves and looking at stars.

Dreaming...I've always wished I could relive my life knowing everything that I know now. Well today I had that opportunity, sort of... I dreamt of you and I got to relive a day in our very recent past. And I thought "oh finally I can make some things right". The first time we lived that day you came up behind me and started tickling me and I squirmed away. I felt very self-conscious thinking I was overweight and didn't want you to feel my fat jiggling around. This time I let you tickle me and I started laughing so hard just with happiness of being with you and having your hands on me again. And then you started laughing really hard too, what a glorious sound that laugh is. And then you stopped tickling me and our faces were only inches apart and you looked at me for a long moment and then you softly said "that's enough" and you turned around and walked away. That's when I realized I couldn't do it. I can't relive even another day of this journey with you. Because I remembered the way you continually let me get close and almost let me in, and how you pull away and walk away every single time. I remembered how that makes me feel and how It makes me feel is small. / So regardless of how fantastic it was to see you, your beautiful hazel eyes, that amazing smile and inhale the wonderful smell of you, I forced myself to wake up and softly said "goodbye"

Foolish GirlI'm falling in love with him and he only things I'm cool. / I take only what he's willing to give because I'm a fool.

For Tina...How do you heal a broken heart? / Two were one and now torn apart. / You watch your friend hurt and cry.

Good TimesDo you remember when we stayed up all night while you read your poems to me? / The day we watched movies, didn't get out of bed & cried our eyes out because the stories were so moving? / It mattered not that we were broke or that there was a recession, we laughed and cried made our own fun and enjoyed all of our our obsessions.

Happy/SadYou make me happy and sad all at the same time / The road is where you belong and you'll never be mine / I do get you every now and then

HauntedIt's as if there's an echo of you in every room I enter. / The last strands of a melody draining away as the song ends. / Your shadow lingers in the corner of my eye but when I turn you're not there.

I'm OKThe thought of you makes me smile more than seeing his face. / Since you left I feel there's an empty space. / I don't sleep well unless we're tangled up together.

LeavingI'm leaving this world surely but slowly / Leaving behind everything I once thought holy / The cares of this world will be shaken off
