You must have the perfect stance
to play with ease and grace
a minuet or dance
at a lively pace

sometimes i get so scared
that i might die
before i live
that i'll never take
a risk
a chance
or throw in all the chips
and what if i forget
how to be happy alone
i can't make that mistake
like so many before me
if don't live my life now
no one else will
this i write
freely
let it all start now

in all the love songs
in all the books
that moment when love collapses
they all focus on the pain
but i have to know
where that lost love goes
is it dead?
corpses floating in our hearts?
or did that other take it
away
or maybe
it falls away
to wander freely
or perhaps
we are meant to search for it
for the rest
of our days

we all know
you want the pain
to be a dream
to wake up happy
like you were
but the truth,
the one that wont
set you
free
is that you always
doze off
during the
joy

first boy to kiss me
first to call me beautiful
first to say "i love you"
first to twist my heart
first to make me ache
with pain honest as life
first to make me die
a thousand deaths inside
first to make me weep
until my soul was dry
and that love that never came to be
that ended far too soon
is the one that shatters me
more than any lover could

suddenly
it hits me
like a wall
no longer
will i run
my head cracked
i bleed
place blame?
none
not enough
not right
i'm sorry

you want it?
take it
go on
don't you deserve it?
honesty
now
look
you never think
do you?
don't think, just go
right?

surrounded by a circle
the pain recedes
settles
feel of dust
rough fabric
cold
heat behind eyes
light harsh
but
here

not away
toward
toward freedom
toward change
toward growth
stop
you cannot
stay

the flare up
the burn down
scent immediately
with each new flame
a string breaks
with barely and exhale
it dies
and then
nothing
