Dear god just notice me
Not the way that you have
although that’s been nice too
See the way I look at you
Hear my heart pound when I’m around you
understand that “I love you”
means so much more than it implies

"Find something that you like"
And I searched hard and long
And I couldn't

Leave me alone
No
I don't want to do that

I have this dance
The partners change
and so does the style
but it always ends the same
Sometimes the dance is a waltz
and I am held gently
being swept across the floor
my feet hardly touching it
Sometimes the dance is a mosh pit
where I am thrown around
I ache all over
And am left at the mercy of others
Some of my partners are kind
They lead me softly
and I know I'm safe
Other times my partners are not.
I am at their mercy
and I pray that I'll live to dance another day
No matter what the dance is
or who my partner is
at the end of the night
I leave alone

You cover your skin with primer and foundation and blush
Eyeshadow and mascara and bronzer and lipstick
but with all that makeup who can see your face?
When all the lies are gone
the beauty is in the freckles and lines and blemishes
I see planets and galaxies when you look my way
There are constellations in your skin
and there's a supernova in your smile
And space is cold and stars burn out and die
But I want to see your face for eternity

The wind bites at her cheeks as she stands at the dock
the ocean churning, living, breathing underneath her
dark and deep, deep, deep
She shivers and pulls the thin cardigan closer around herself
her whole body shaking as she looks at the stars
cold and far, far away
Her hair is thrown this way and that by the wind
absentmindedly she secures it loosely
trapped and nowhere to go
She takes a deep breath and feels the crisp cool air fill her lungs
She hesitates for only a second
then takes the plunge
